Are all these "Simpsons rules, Family Guy sucks" people studio shills? IP Check?

Anyway, I think I'd seen this episode a couple dozen times before.

Your nonsensical ideas backed by nothing are quite hilarious in an embarrasing sort of way.

Funny how quite a few people in this thread alone agreed with me. Keep on trucking though. Eventually you'll find something else to divert the attention away from your lack of substance of argument.

The back-and-forth discussion in this thread has been far more entertaining than the episode ever was.

So now you're using my previous post as your own, c'mon not only are you working on nothing, now you're leeching off others. Just break the pill in half and end your misery.

Finally watched this on DVR. It seemed to be missing something... Is it redundant to feel cartoon characters just went through the motions?

There were some great Homer bits in there, but the overall comedy felt a bit light. I'm not a big fan of Marge-centric episodes though, so maybe it's more to do with that.

Very average, and somewhat disappointing in that as someone posted you would think they would want to start the season with a bang. That was one thing about waiting until after baseball, the Halloween specials are some of the top episodes ever so there was usually a big winner to open the year.

At this point, I don't even care to debate any more, becasue I've more than proven my point. I just continue posting because I want to see what you'll say next.

I've watched this show from the beginning and it's still one of my favorites.

This thread has gotten way off topic. Please stop the personal bickering or else I will have to close the thread.

You don't care becasue your withered "point" has been shot down somewhere back into bizarro world.

Apparently you didn't notice that a mod came in and posted that last statement. I wouldn't expect you to be able to read that, though.
