It's the holiday season here at FFD studios, so we've gone back and revisited this classic that sees Bart accidentally burn down the family Christmas tree and presents. There's lots to love (Brockman's news reports, Homer's parking hack, etc) however it also features Dando's LEAST favourite Simpsons moment of the golden era.
It's not the best Christmas "episode", that's saved for with "Marge Be Not Proud" or the pilot, however it's arguably the best Simpsons Christmas "special". Unfortunately Guy missed out on his cajun sausage this week, but need not worry since Nicola baked some Christmas trees for Dando and bloody spearheads for Guy as a consolation.

Worst. Episode. Ever. Well, worst episode so far at least. Just an absolute head-scratcher that leaves you disliking pretty much every character that appears.
Basically, Homer and Marge find out that they both came close to cheating on each other five years. Yep. Apparently "marriage in crisis" is the only story that the writers know what to do with flashbacks these days.
If it's rants you're after, you've come to the right place.

A pretty solid Halloween special that parodies Transformers, Mad Men and Peanuts! A nice blend of sci-fi and gore in the first two segments, however the tribute to "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" was top notch.

The Simpsons present their rendition of 'The Prince and the Pauper' here as Bart switches places with a rich kid he meets at a party. There's a truly great story hiding here somewhere, instead it seems the writers were more interested in continuing on the never-ending saga of Homer being a jerk for absolutely no reason. If there's one this episode does well, it's highlighting just how good a "tuck-in" is.

Bart gets a cell phone. That is all. Well, not exactly, although it kinda felt that way when watching since as Guy likes to say, "it's just a bunch of stuff happening". The annoying part is that there's a really solid story to be told here, however the writers seem more interested in getting the Simpsons to visit Machu Picchu for 3 minutes. At least we got Dennis Leary.

It's incredible (and sad) how an episode that aired almost 30 years ago can still be just as relevant today, as it was back then. Regardless, here we are with our revisit of "Much Apu About Nothing", an episode that is in our opinion, the gold standard of "Apu" stories.

We're back! Not that we necessarily went anywhere, but it's a new season and we're feeling optimistic after this fun outing that see Homer and Flanders start their own bounty hunter company. On top of that, Marge becomes an erotic baker which leads to one of Dando's favourite gags in a while.
We also discuss Guy's love of all things Robert Forster, the best way to eat a twist from Baker's Delight, the tragic career history of Dog the Bounty Hunter and more.

Lisa becomes Krusty's assistant, which leads to her becoming famous. Now don't be confused, this may seem like a copy of "Bart Gets Famous", however it's actually a really fun homage to the classic film, "All About Eve". What was even more impressive was that we both loved the way Sideshow Mel was handled too! Added great depth to his character and gave a better understanding as to why he continues to put up with a gig he seemingly hates. Overall, a good season finale!
We also discuss being unfriended on Facebook, Dando's love for collecting (or as Nicola calls it, "hoarding"), why modern Simpsons parody episodes don't work and more.
By the way, Happy 4th Birthday to Dando's daughter, Holly!

The spooky season is upon us, so we thought we'd get a routine soul smear and go back to revisit some classic Treehouse Of Horror with "The Thing and I", "The Genesis Tub" and "Citizen Kang"! So much to love in what's a great blend of horror without any true gore.
We also discuss lizard people, "Basket Case", where the Toth Fairy prefers to collect teeth from and more.

Yeah this one right here goes out to all the baby's mamas, mamas..since unfortunately we bid farewell to Mona Simpson! Yes it's the end of Mona's arc as Homer finally bids a permanent farewell to his mother, not before she asks one last rebellious favour of him!A nice twist on the "Homer's mother returns" story, where she may pass away in the first act, yet her presence is still felt throughout. The ending felt a little whacky, however for the msot part a nice story.
We also discuss Guy getting a tooth ripped out, unnecessary baby parties and more.

The following podcast is brought to you by ChalmSkinn productions. Well, at least we wish it was. What a fun episode! As movie nerds, this especially hits a home as it pokes fun at the Sundance Film Festival, along with the "festival hype" in general. Not only that, we get a genuinely lovely and heartwarming story of Lisa learning to aprpeciate her family for their faults.
We also discuss being stud muffins, Marge's adorable use of the word "snuggle" and more. Plus, we get a cameo from Elliott!

What a sweet episode! Bart becomes attached to a calf and attempts to save him from slaughter. In all honesty, this handled the subject of "meat eating" in a far superior way then South Park did for "Fun With Veal".
We also discuss "Super Simpsons Weekends" marathons, our love of banana bread, Ladbrokes and more.

"First you get the podcast, then you get the power, then you get the women." That's right, this week we revisited "Lisa's Rival", famous for not only Winona Ryder's appearance as Alison Taylor, but it's also when Homer finds Hans Moleman's jackknifed sugar truck!
We also discuss finding porn in the woods, piercing our ears, our love for Miss Hoover and more.

Lurleen Lumpkin is back! Except this time she doesn't want to bunk with Homer, she's reuniting with her deadbeat father, 'cause that always goes well. This was actually a lovely sequel to "Colonel Homer", with Marge helping Lurleen realise that SHE is in control of her own success, not the men in her life. Plus we get a pretty terrific guest appearance from The (Dixie) Chicks.
We also discuss Guy's latest "LIMITED" purchase, our favourite Madonna songs, the terrifying truth about otters and more.

It's another murder mystery! This time our dear pal Martin Prince is the victim in question...or is he? Honestly, a perfectly fine episode where logic kinda falls apart at the end. The "Sneaker" parody was a nice throwback though.
We also discuss the genius songwriting of the Black Eyed Peas, our fear of Komodo Dragons, the dial-up internet sound and more.
