Reading Digest: Music and Food Edition
“In fact, if you play ‘Maybe I’m Amazed’ backwards, you’ll hear a recipe for a really ripping lentil soup!” – Paul McCartney We’ve got a whale of a Reading Digest this week, including two elaborate links to music from before rock achieved perfection in 1974 and two people making food from the show, out of this world space age moon waffles and little meat loaf men. In addition, we’ve got quite a bit of fan art, some of it very elaborate, a Groening interview from 1990, a very creepy old Micky Mouse that kind looks like Homer, and much more.…

Reading Digest: Fun for All Ages Edition
“I think it’s nice we’re doing something Maggie will enjoy for once. Besides, I’m sure Storytown Village is also fun for everyone, from eight to . . . God only knows.” – Marge Simpson There are more than a few things that make The Simpsons unique, even when compared to other hit programs. Close to the top of that list, and this is borne out more and more with each passing year, is the damned near agelessness of it. At some point, the world is going to tire of the Simpsons family and it’ll become a part of history, but that…
Behind Us Forever: Pay Pal
“And this is Lord Thistlewick Flanders.” – Ned Flanders “Charmed . . . Uh, googily doogily.” – Lord Thistlewick Flanders Every once and a while we get episodes like “Pay Pal” that seem to be made up of B-plots that got discarded from other episodes and were found lying on the writers’ room floor. The first thing that happens is that there’s an Evergreen Terrace block party, then John Oliver shows up as a new British neighbor. Then he gets into a fight with Homer and vanishes completely from the episode. With the “British neighbor” story concluded, there’s a new…

Behind Us Forever: The Saga of Carl & Dangers on a Train (And Season 24!)
“So long, suck-ahhh!” – Bart Simpson Because FOX sucks at scheduling, how about a two episode season finale? Why not!: After a clumsy introduction they’ve convinced themselves that repeating the phrase “Ki Ya” over and over again is funny. Also, why is Marge bathing Bart? This video with Pascal, in a voice that sounds like Azaria trying to keep himself awake, is just as boring as a real museum exhibit. I miss the zinc filmstrip. “Because people always laugh when you say sixty-nine. No one knows why.” – I bet this line got a big laugh in the screenwriting elective…
