The not knowing when to mind her own business is a recuring thing with Lisa. i just realized that whenever Burns has karma fall down upon him Lisa's always the one help him and every time he just goes back to being evil

Sheena Easton's "Sugar Walls" is actually that filthy. For one, the person who wrote it was none other than His Royal Badness himself, Prince. The song also found it's way onto Tipper Gore and the PMRC's shitlist know as the "Filthy Fifteen", a list of songs that the group considered to be the most objectionable. Along side hits like Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It" and the Mary Jane Girls' "in My House", "Sugar Walls" was ranked #2 in terms of filth. It was runner up to the song "Darling Nikki" by, who else, Prince.

Honestly, I don't really like this episode very much. It's not particularly bad, it just feels uninventive to me, which is the opposite of nearly (but not all) Treehouse of Horror segments to come before it. There's definitely some good jokes, but overall it just left me feeling very "meh." -- In terms of this episode's vernacular, I still often say "it's all good" in response to people relaying info like they're no coming to something I'm hosting or need to delay something they'd promised me. I didn't realize that was a particular fad of the early 2000s (being a child then myself) so I guess I'm a bit anachronistic these days. I also never knew about the euphemism of sugar walls until this very podcast!

If you wanna see Lenny nude you don't Google it, you Bing safe search off it. I take no responsibility for what you see.

You guys forgot about The Matrix reference in act one of Lisa The Tree Hugger where Bart is delivering Thai menus.

I found "The Day of the Dolphin" tagline several years ago and was really hoping for something that amazing or at least unintentionally funny. It was none of those things. It's an incredibly boring movie that was just zero fun and a lot of that weird 70s sci fi shenanigans going on. But I did watch the special features where the director just laid waste to movie and talked about how much he hated working on the project. That was at least fun.

I think the "Snorky, talk. Man" could be a reference to either Congo or Seaquest. Since I'm too lazy to do research I'll just leave this here for someone to tell me I'm wrong. Hehehe.

I actually grew up with bootleg Simpsons dvds for a long time, and they included what I assume to be original broadcast airings of these episodes. For years I had never seen the scene where Grandpa is eaten alive or the scene with Kent Brockman. I'm assuming they cut some of that stuff out due to violence, but it was crazy seeing those scenes when I rewatched on FXX.

Have to say this is the first time I cringed seeing which episode was coming up. Even more than the Kid Rock or Maude ones. Sorry, with a few exceptions to come, this is really The End for me. S12 is a better season than S11, but the violence/gore/crudeness that became the norm is irredeemable and just came at too high a price, even for a Treehouse. Fuck Mike Scully. He really did ruin this show.

I’m very excited to start these episodes, I stopped watching in season 11 due to some of those episodes being too much for 17-18 year old me and also because I started working Sunday nights at a local theme restaurant that you might actually cover on an episode of What a Cartoon. I jumped back in sporadically watch but it wasn’t until a few years later. That being said, I quite enjoyed some of the season 11 episodes that angsty teen me despised and I really liked this episode. I’m looking forward to this season and beyond.

I watched this one when it aired, after taking a break from unlocking characters in a little game called... Tekken Tag Tournament. But other than that (and Armored Core 2!) There was very little reason to get a ps2, much like almost any console launch lineup, with few exceptions.
