WOO FOUR HUNDRED EPISODES
I am watching the 400th episode of The Simpsons.
It's after taking them the whole first half just to get to the main plot.
WOW I BET THE MOVIE WILL BE AWESOME
Manatees manatees manatees manatees. They filled the first half with so much pointless crap that by the time they reached the real plot they had five minutes to tie it all up. What the hell was the point of the trip to the dentist?! And how come the writers can remember that Apu and Krusty stayed with the Simpsons but can't remember that LISA HAD BRACES? Or that Selma adopted a Chinese orphan?
Our token celebrity tonight was Ludacris, who appeared for about five minutes in a completely unrelated dental hygiene sequence. I wonder how much better the episodes would be if they stopped focusing on what famous faces they can shoehorn in and tried actually WRITING A STORY.
I got to hand it to the writers, though - they took a storyline they'd already done with Krusty (celebrity gets disillusioned, tries "keeping it real", and then reverts back to type) and crammed it into three minutes of screentime. And their jibe at the Fox Network was just fantastic! I bow before you, Simpsons writers, and your FUCKING TOOTHLESS SATIRE. South Park did it better in Cartoon Wars. You just pussed out.
