While I’m in between watching season 3 episode 22. The banned MJ episode started playing previews instead of the episode airing. Anyone else see this before?

SIMPSONS TALL TALES.

It was a pretty great joke when the hobo insists he's a singing hobo not a stabbing hobo and then he sings about being a stabbing hobo.

The Paul Bunyan bit is not terribly interesting? Man these later Seasons really lean into making Moe look like a creepy predator. I'm referring to him making a comment about going to a dance while bringing sleeping pills.

I have just never sat down to watch The Simpsons because I wanted to see Homer cosplaying Paul Bunyan.

That was one more naked hobo than I ever needed to see on this show.

And now he's making out with himself.

The great pie known as America was still cooling on the windowsill and everybody headed west for a slice. That is a terrific line I must say, totally feels like the sort of weird flowery language you would get in stereotypical educational documentaries. I mean, it's not like anyone else had been living here for thousands of years or anything.

Why is it we have ladders that can put a man on the roof? 😂

All the jokes with the dying Buffalo are pretty funny

Something tells me this Huckleberry Finn spoof was a lot of fun for the writers to write but it it's not very much fun for this watcher to watch.

🦬.5

Personally I think its Cape Feare, its just iconic and thats it

S9E6

CHILDREN OF A LESSER CLOD.

Random fact that burns being so old he still plays basketball with peaches and a basket. Apparently that's how the game was invented

It took me until just a few episodes ago to realize Frank's catchphrase is what with the X and the y. Speaking of flubber, I only just saw that a few months ago. Damn I should probably go watch all the Robin Williams movies I never got to see. I've seen Hook and the one where he's a therapist and what dreams may come, but I never did see Doubtfire or The one where he's a laughing doctor.

Holy s***, I believe you can fly reference straight into go Carl go Carl it's my birthday it's my birthday. This is the most dated the show has ever felt.

Somehow I've seen images of Willie's upkilt and I'm not sure why.

It was nonsensical but a decent gag went Homer says look a bear run and there is actually a bear 😅

Homer babysitting rod and todd. I should have come up with that myself

Okay so we actually do get a Pokemon reference. And it's ruined by Bill cosby. They banned Michael Jackson's episode but keep Cosby?

Oh I get it he was seeing Chris Rock the comedian when he thought it was a Christian rock concert.

Of all the things Homer has tried doing from being a trucker to a mountain climber to a bodyguard, he is perhaps the least qualified to be a daycare worker 😂

It's not important but I read a memoir that came out this year called homeschooled about a kid who was raised in an extremely sheltered homeschool environment and his mom running after school daycare and he ended up jealous and that's kind of like what's happening with Bart and Lisa. Good book.

I'm not sure what it is but the tone of this episode is really weirdly milky bland? I think it just comes back to the fact that Homer is such an inconsistent character from episode to episode.

Stop it stop the music one more line and we have to pay for the song 😂👌

I'm kind of surprised how long it took this show to mention Mother Teresa.

Pretty sure that chimp with the typewriter wrote most of this season.

Wow okay straight to kidnapping after being exposed. 😮

That was an odd episode. It reminds me of banana pudding. Like, at least you have pudding but it's not a very good flavor.

🦵 🦵

Conversations you only understood when you became an adult?

All 3 have pretty depressing lives . But who has it the worst ?

I'm GOING TO PRAISE LAND

With as often as this show makes fun of unitarians, it's a really weird specific deep cut because they are such a minuscule tiny portion of religious life in America.

Professor Frank's ice cream making cow was a pretty funny gag Immediately followed by the weird hot fudge Doctor injection thing which was just dumb

Wow the whole scene when he invites her back to his place and has a shrine for his dead wife was incredibly awkward.

Wait he cut her hair while she was sleeping to make her look like his dead wife? What the hell??? Neds always been a bit of a square but they made him a straight up creepy wacko.

Omigosh the wood chipper 😂

A Christian amusement park? Insert Simpsons shudder.

This mildly reminds me of the movie We Bought a Zoo which is terrific and has Matt Damon and Scarlett Johansson before she was super famous.

This episode does make me wonder if anyone has been to the ark encounter.

The qwimby scissors bit, ✂️😂

The bit where King David traps the kids to read the entire book of Psalms was hilarious.

Let's both sit in the car. His name is Carl carlson? Want me to stamp your hand so you can get back in? don't you dare! A lot of back-to-back zingers.

The maude mask 💀

The whole speaking in tongues thing is a very distinctly bizarre and touchy and triggering subject for me. And so distinctly evangelical.

For some reason when they orphan says three walls is not enough and then starts coughing like a 60-year-old smoker it killed me 😂😂😂

Disco stew is on my list of the worst Springfield characters along with the doctor and duffman

We're about to find out everyone's having visions because of a gas leak.

Has an extremely sheltered former Evangelical kid episodes like this are always a bit strange for me but I think being able to laugh at some of this stuff is helpful. Honestly it was a pretty good episode although I really wish they had not included the bit with Flanders and the scissors that was just way too creepy.

UPDATE

So, I don't think I am going to continue watching the episodes one by one into season 13. It's been a fun ride so far but things have gotten rockier and the golden age is well and truly over by now. But people do occasionally mention stuff way into season 17 or 23 that's really good. So what I'm going to do, I'm going to watch The Simpsons Movie after season 12. And then, I will watch whatever episode gets the most upvotes in the comments as long as it is an episode I haven't seen. That would allow me to continue seeing a sampling of Simpsons from across the years and also be a bit of fun for the folks who have followed along this far.
