"Uh, Lisa, the whole reason we have elected officials is so we don't have to think all the time. Just like that rainforest scare a few years back: our officials saw there was a problem and they fixed it, didn't they?"

Last night's episode was so crappy and unmemorable, I forgot to make a "review" of it last night. Here's what happens:


  • Marge makes a store out of healing crystals after Burns cuts the child healthcare. Easy alternative, no satire here. It's rather basic.
  • Callback to one of Season 11's best, Brother's Little Helper, where Bart for some reason apparently still takes the ADHD Focusyn medicine despite its proven ineffectiveness within that episode.
  • Megan Amram wrote this one.
  • Midway the conflict switches to Marge eventually being in competition with some new-age store owner named Piper Paisley voiced by Jenny Slate, who only briefly appears for a few minutes.
  • Continuity, Flanders is still Bart's teacher.
  • The conflict also switches to Lisa trying to figure out if Bart achieving at school is based on the crystals or him cheating....which it is him cheating, but it's weird, because everyone else had a positive benefit from the crystals for some reason and shit...and you'd think the crystals would kind of make some sort of disease or whatnot, instead of having them conclude with everyone throwing the crystals back at Marge because they apparently didn't have some sort of benefit, but I'm thinking way too deep into this shit.
No, How Do You Do, Fellow Kids moments. This one was pretty unmemorable. Last episode should've been the season finale.

It sounds like they have a RNG generating plotlines for them at this point.
 
How the hell does combining two classic Simpsons scenes make everything so funny? It's so effective.
The mix of absurdist humour and nostalgia can be a powerful combination in the right hands.

In the wrong hands however.....

The Simpsons already did a Breaking Bad "Crystal Blue Persuasion" couch gag six seasons ago complete with live-action Walt and Jesse cameos at the end.

Still my favorite bit. The way he says "pornography" kills me every single time.
