Bart is Marge, Marge is Homer, and painfully trite exposition can take up a lot of time if you don’t care in the least about the quality of what you’re doing. I don’t mind pointless meandering narratives from elderly relatives (the holidays are coming up and I’m 100% ready), but, rightly or wrongly, I expect more from $5,000,000 television episodes. Making a teevee audience suffer through a 22-minute after school special about the horrors of being a slacker when they could be doing almost anything else is an outright disgrace. Less unfunny alternatives include waiting for downloads to finish, masturbating when you aren’t horny, and watching television programs that are well paced, written with a semblance of care, and not 100% composed of suck.
This post has no ending because the Zombie Simpsons episode in question didn’t have one either. That is all.

I only just watched it, but that episode was a whole heap of “when does the plot start?” in my opinion. It felt rather empty and Andy seems rather a nothing character. Not as much of a nothing character as the personal trainer I can’t remember the name of in Homer the Whopper, but it was a rather rushed resolution for him. Oh, he’s a loser, now he’s okay, hur.
Also, some of those pranks were just horrible. I must be getting old (at 27) but I can’t find that funny. And I’m not sure I approve of the idea that Skinner used to be cool until the unpleasant and unfunny worm prank. Skinner who “used to be cool” is just depressing somehow.
Also, long opening credits to waste some time. Again, you can tell I’m getting old and turning into my own mother because I thought “it’s November! Not Christmas yet!”. And none of the Simpson family can sing, thanks for subjecting us to that.
I realize this doesn’t pertain to the episode in question, but not knowing where else to drop it, l’m using my age (53) and glaucoma as an excuse. LISA CAN’T SING, so why are we subjected to hearing it? Also, what makes her a better caregiver for Larry the Lamb when she didn’t even strap him into the stroller? She dumps him in the sewer but makes Bart get him out. Lame-ass bitch!
