Behind Us Forever: Pulpit Friction

“Hey, look, those frogs are eating all their crops!” – Homer Simpson Marge has to yell in church to get everyone to sit down, and meanwhile Lovejoy was just standing at the pulpit waiting patiently?  I know they don’t care about this stuff, but it really destroys scenes.  And the new guy is also just standing there before he starts describing Lovejoy for no reason.  Color me surprised, they remembered the bed bug thing for one brief scene after the first segment.  Usually they just drop it all together. And Homer electrocutes himself because of course he does. Why is…

Sunday Preview: Pulpit Friction

Homer heeds the call when he is recruited to be a deacon by the cutting-edge new pastor, but Bart wants to bring back Rev. Lovejoy after Homer embraces the faith a little too zealously. Meanwhile, it is no laughing matter when the dry cleaner mistakenly switches Marge’s wedding dress for one of Krusty’s costumes. A bit of a contrast from the time Homer was a minister to profit off of gay marriage, but hey, it’s 2013.  Apparently there is also a bedbug infestation during this episode, so we got that going for us too!
