The Simpsons & Stuff - Better Than BiMonSciFiCon

New Futurama

Have you checked out the new episodes of Futurama on Comedy Central?

So far, so so. There are some really high moments, though, that lead me to think they just need to requisition their Hermes' groove back

The Pain of a Lost Season Four Disc

The other night i was feeling nostalgic. Longing for a time when I eagerly anticipated watching the Simpsons on Thursday night. Alas, those days are no more, and that is not just because FOX switched the Simpsons to Sunday nights quite some time ago...

Imagine my dismay when I reached out for my Season Four set, only to find that disc two is no where to be found, a copy of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in its stead. I checked all of the random DVD sleeve books I have lying around, and then I remembered. Years ago I had two roommates, best friends of mine that were hopelessly hopeless in terms of being organized and responsible with something as trivial as a DVD. That disc two was gone a long time ago. I had put the memory out of my mind, only to relive the pain just last weekend

Worst Episode Ever?



So my vote has always been for "My Fair Laddy" ( I really really hate that one -- I mean, does Yeardley Smith have a clause written into her contract to sing in at least fifteen episodes a season or what? Love you YS, but come on, your voice is not that great to listen to

Conan O'Brien to Return to the Simpsons?

So, I am wondering...now that Conan O'Brien is looking for work, could he go back to writing for The Simpsons? Those were the glory days after all.

Let's look at the episodes that Conie wrote.

Simpsons' Season 20 Coming Out Before 13-19 -- Why Bother?

A month ago, 20th Century FOX Home Entertainment announced the upcoming release of the first Simpsons' season on Blu-ray, but don't get excited yet, since it is last season, the stinker 20th, that is coming out in in all its High Def glory.

I mean, I guess I can see why Fox would want to skip releasing the Simpsons' Seasons 13 through 19, as they were not much to write home about (or here either). But last season was a snoozefest and just lame for the most part. I am racking my brain trying to remember a funny moment, so I checked out a run-down of the season, and I audibly groaned while reading synopses for such unmemorable episodes like the one when a younger Ned and Maude try to keep Homer and Marge celibate before marriage (huh? -- exactly). Or that painful episode when Moe dates a little person and his shallowness ruins his last stab at happiness

Simpsons Showing Age in Season 21



I can remember a time when I used to get excited about a new Simpsons season. I didn't even bother to tune in for this season premiere, for the 2nd or 3rd or 8th time. I did however catch the above, the second episode of the 21st season ("Bart Gets a Z"), and wow, it had a glimmer of a hope when the kids decide to get Krabapel drunk, but then what the damn hell ass happened

Futarama's Future Complete with Original Cast

I don't know if you have been keeping up with the news lately, but there was some hub-bub over signing on the original cast for the illustrious return of episodic Futurama. I mean, can you imagine Bender not voiced by John DiMaggio?

This is what he looks like in real-life, in case you were wondering
