Simpsons 03/09/03
 
This was a pretty good episode, but there were two things in it that really made me laugh:

Spoiler:

1. The Joe Millionaire Promo running across the bottom of the screen at the beginning, leading to Homer to eat it (and spit it out, once he realized it was from Fox).


Spoiler:

2. Marge: "Somebody perform CPR!"
Homer: "I see a Bad Moon Rising"
Marge: "No, that's CCR!"


(Mightn't be the exact quote, but close enough!"

I don't want to read the spoilers, but can you state if it's a new episode?

movieking 03-09-03 06:08 PM

Yup, new episode!

MrX 03-09-03 07:22 PM

That was the funniest ep in a while. The Fox news spot was hilarious. "comrade"rotfl

Homer eating the promo and the CCR jokes were good to.


"vote Quimby vote Quimby vote Quimby ahhhh":lol:

How did you see it before it aired?

Simpson Purist 03-09-03 07:26 PM

Awesome episode.

Just one question:

Do you think Krusty's gig as congressman will continue in the following episodes?

caiman 03-09-03 07:38 PM

Sorry, this episode wasn't good. It actually had a plot, but the jokes just weren't funny. The only ones I laughed at were the two that movieking mentioned.

Carl: Shhh... it's a secret. ;)

That episode had pretty decent flow to it, and I loved some of the political satire. It's one of the better ones from this season.

Great episode. The Fox News spoof had me :lol:

Gallant Pig 03-09-03 08:01 PM

Yeah did you catch the stuff written that was crawling during the Fox News spoof? :lol: Instant classic.

Boot 03-09-03 08:04 PM

The Fox promo and Fox News spoofs were pretty inspired. I found myself laughing more tonight than with any recent episode.

Grandpa on commode: "I think I've had this nightmare before."

Bart: "Well, the planes are finally flying back where they belong."
Homer: "That's right. Over the houses of poor people."

:lol:

Deftones 03-09-03 09:02 PM

OMG! I'm only 2 minutes into this episode and I'm already laughing my ass off.

The Joe Millionaire Fox promo thing was absolutely classic.

Homer: I'm going to go calm my nerves with a nice, relaxing shave. Tissues please! rotfl

He actually says "I think I've had this dream before." Not to get picky, or anything. ;)

what a place to get a typo. :D


hey, I like your quote by me in your sig. so this is what it's like to be misquoted. :D

Gallant Pig 03-09-03 09:50 PM

Yeah I had to spice it up a bit. :D

Lampei 03-09-03 09:51 PM

I liked the bit with Kent Brockman.

Something like...

"This is live. How can I prove it's live? Penis!" :D

Jackskeleton 03-09-03 10:24 PM

oh man the Fox news spoof was damn_funny.

freedexter 03-09-03 10:27 PM

A great episode. The ending wasn't a let down for once, and there were tons of jokes. One of the best of the season.

Lateralus42 03-09-03 10:36 PM

"Welcome to Fox News, The Voice of Evil"

Holy crap, spot on! Great social satire in this one.

Groucho 03-09-03 11:04 PM

I'm surprised there isn't a five page post complaining about the FoxNews spoof by now.

Gasspasser 03-09-03 11:23 PM

The fox news spoof is now one of my favorite simpsons moments

RevLiver 03-10-03 01:05 PM

The FoxNews spoof had me in tears. This was easily the best episode of this season and the best I've seen in quite some time.
