Is this a Christmas episode? Not really. It's more of a "how can we take away the one thing we like about the Gil character?" type of episode. After Gil is fired from Costingtons on Christmas Eve, The Simpsons agree to let him spend the holiday with them. However, he never leaves. Even when asked, he guilt trips his way into staying longer. Nobody comes out looking good by the end of this episode,...

Homer becomes the Springfield Ice-Cream Man, which leads Marge to discover a talent for building sculptures, aka "folk art!", out of the popsicle sticks. This was one of the more believable (and therefore better) Homer hustles post-golden era, and includes one of Dando's favourite gags of all time. Prepare to Get Ur Freak On with some absolutely cromulent mid 00s parodies. Support the Four Finger...

"Annoyed" is a rather fitting title for this episode, since that's how you're left feeling after watching it. An interesting story in theory, however the execution lacks any form of humour or intelligence, besides a couple of fun moments.

It's the one where Marge realises she's good at carpentry (that's good), however she also realises that she's a woman (that's bad). Luckily her "handyman" husband Homer comes to the rescue. Meanwhile, Bart is an absolute monster and thinks it'd be a fun idea to try and kill Principal Skinner by exploiting his nut allergy.

It's the one with The White Stripes! Honestly, that's probably the most memorable thing from this whole episode. Most of the story felt like rinse-and-repeat, with another "Lisa gets jealous of Bart's success" plot, combined with a bunch of Homer gags that simply do not land. On a more positive note, we're back in the studio together! That's right, Guy and Dando are back in the same room for the f...

We woke up this morning and got ourselves a pod. Well, actually we recorded one and it was the premiere of Season 18! Here we learn that Fat Tony's son Michael wants to become a chef, which goes against his father's plans of taking over the family "waste management" business. A really solid outing that features a pretty spot-on Godfather parody. SAVE 10% off your order with code FOURFINGERDISCOUNT...

Mitch and Dando are back this week! Springfield Elementary gets a new principal who divides the boys from the girls, leaving Lisa needing to dress up as a boy in order to learn proper maths. Safe to say, Mitch wasn't kind, well, neither was Dando, but he was at least kinder. Thanks to patron Seth Wiens for his ongoing support and selecting this episode!

This could be the most pointless Simpsons episode of all time. Just absolute filler, with the occasional laugh. It wasn't offensive, just a whole lot of nothing. Essentially, it's another trilogy episode where this time the theme is stories set out at sea.

Mr. Burns outsources work to India and sends Homer to run the operation. Meanwhile, Patty and Selma kidnap MacGyver, aka Richard Dean Anderson. To be honest, when it comes to "Simpsons go to" episodes, this ranks up as one of the best. Plus the guest appearance from RDA was fantastic. Enjoy!
