Behind Us Forever: Blazed and Confused
“Camp is gonna be great! Seven days without parents, homework or ear medicine!” – Milhouse van Houten The best thing to say about this episode is that at least the designers and animators had some fun (including David Silverman, who even got a line!). Other than that, this one was a cheerless, contradictory mess. There’s a new teacher, who’s some kind of psychotic, rule crazy nutjob, but who nevertheless is a regular at “Blazing Guy”, a Burning Man parody so uncreative that they actually tried to make fun of themselves for it. Nothing we see of this guy would indicate…

This year we’re doing Season 11. Why Season 11? Because we’ve done Seasons 8, 9 and 10 already, and it’s time to take an unflinching look at the end of the show. Since Skype and podcasts didn’t exist in 1999, and we want to discuss…

Quote of the Day
“I’m sorry, Lisa, but giving everyone an equal part when they’re clearly not equal is called what again, class?” – Little Vicki “Communism!” – Dance Class “That’s right, and I didn’t tap all those Morse code messages to Allies till my shoes filled with blood just to roll out the welcome mat for the Reds.” – Little Vicki
