The Simpsons- Pay Pal- 5/11/2014

After Homer insults the new neighbors, a charming British family, Marge decides she's through trying to be friends with other couples, but changes her tune after hearing Lisa say that she, too, doesn't feel the need to welcome newcomers into her life.

I found this a very questionable episode to run for sweeps. There was one funny line in it, when Homer realizes he's the smart parent. American Dad's episode ran circles around it in terms of funniness.

I dunno, I actually thought it was a pretty decent episode for a Lisa focused episode. Loved the Game of Life couch bit at the beginning of the episode. A fairly simple episode but not really a bad one I didn't think.

I thought the character of Lisa's friend was a wasted opportunity. She was so bland, they didn't invent any kind of background or something interesting about her. It would have been funnier if there was something drastically different about the way she behaved with Lisa and how she behaved for real (other than her not being a vegan or whatever).

The Game of Life opening was great.
