Last Simpsons Episode You Watched

[cinco]

Bart Sells His Soul (guess you watched it also )

Papa Don't Leech

So Lurleen is back, huh. But what a bad episode overall.
Way to ruin my Colonel Homer-memories.
Also, why didn't they reuse the Kermit character-model from A Fish Called Selma?

"Scuse me while I miss the Sky" ~ A-

A fine effort. Some scenes are a bit over the top, but there aren't enough of them to ruin the episode.

Yep, just now

There still are new episodes which can touch me on an emotional level.
This is one of them.
The scene in which the two of them are dancing: lovely.

Mypods and Boomsticks

Underrated episode. Once you look over the whole mapple/mypod-thing, you see an actually decent outing.
Sadly enough, a lot of people are as prejudiced about Muslims as Homer and stuff like 24 doesn't help.

[Real Melvin]

Watched two with their commentaries:
Burns, Baby Burns - B
Lisa's Date with Density - A-

also, as for Mypods, I maintain it's probably in my ten least favorite Simpsons episodes. as an American, I found the anti-anti-Muslim thing was actually really insulting. painfully didactic and presumptuous of the WASP buffoon culture. every scene with that family in it was an obtrusive reminder that Muslims are good people, as if the writers really wanted to break through our racist skulls.

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? and Old Money

also, as for Mypods, I maintain it's probably in my ten least favorite Simpsons episodes. as an American, I found the anti-anti-Muslim thing was actually really insulting. painfully didactic and presumptuous of the WASP buffoon culture. every scene with that family in it was an obtrusive reminder that Muslims are good people, as if the writers really wanted to break through our racist skulls.

You're talking about the fact that they are portrayed as a solid household and the father has a good job and the son is a nice kid?

And why do you feel offended as an American?
A lot of Europeans are biased in the same way.
Homer's nightmare about moskees turning up everywhere is propaganda ultra-right parties use to convince the public the islam wants to take over, which is certainly not the case.
It's that kind of black and white thinking that turns the heat up, which is something the extreme members of each side use to strenghten conflicted feelings.

I think the problem Melvin had with the characters was the fact that they weren't really characters. They were one-dimensional perfect people who just happened to be Muslim in an attempt to portray that Muslims can be just as normal as Christians and whoever else, but that sort of depiction is insulting because it isn't treating them like real people in the slightest. It acts as an obligatory "See, they're people too, nothing wrong with them!!" message when... there's something wrong with every single person out there. It's painfully simplistic and yet pointed out over and over and over again as if there's no possible way Americans could comprehend the fact that not all Muslims are terrorists.

(Last episode I watched was American History X-cellent, before that Bart Sells His Soul - haven't been watching the show as much these days I'm afraid.)

I will never like the 'Hans Sprungfeld' business, but it's a nice happy episode with well directed animation, and Hollis Hurlbut is really cool!
