he encourages people to watch The Problem with Apu even if you disagree with it on the basis that it is bitching about The Simpsons like any Simpsons fan does.

The problem I have with his take is that he seems to forget that unlike most critiques of the show, the Apu controversy is the most
politicized and is very much related to the greater zeitgeist of modern day racial politics and political polarization. I understand that he is saying it from the lens of a Simpsons fan and not a political commentator but I feel like it's more than just taking things personally.

Which goes to show that the criticism of him comes from people who’ve never watched the show. Apu went from a one-off joke to being a business owner, accomplished computer scientist, and dedicated (if overwhelmed) father. All of this during an era where The Simpsons was still watchable at worst. Compared to other (white!) ethnic joke characters who never evolved beyond that until after the show lost all its heart and talent.

I haven't had a good belly laugh from this channel in a while, but he nailed it with that part of Krusty crying after the Itchy & Scratchy cartoon:

Hey guys! How many of you remember the episode where Bart raced in the soap boxed derby and also bonded with his father? Great episode.

Classic episode.

Now they recycled their own episode where Lisa where she becomes a go-kart racer and Homer worries because Marge won't worry. Oh boy!

a couple of images I chuckled at

 

[BetterFuckChuck]

still cant believe they did a CRT episode about Kirk where he becomes a Nazi and the moral is "teach the horrors of history or it'll be repeated" then delist episodes featuring Bad People

So the Simpsons had a new episode where Marge is the main focus. Let that sink in for a minute. I haven't seen it let. One of the lucky few. But judging from these images available it's an episode where Marge, despite being a broken down housewife, is somehow an Amazon who'll kick your ass without breaking a sweat.

For anyone wondering, next Sunday is another Marge themed episode. This time she's a cook for a ghost kitchen. Wonderful.

Such a fucking waste of Genndy Tartakovsky art. Also I doubt they'd actually bite into celebrities with Ghost Kitchens.

Has Marge become a robot yet?

I just watched the episode. those scenes are just to portray the conflict between Marge and Luann as the main theme of the epissode is primordal instincts and urges. That doesnt stoop the episode from being shoddy though as it's full of familily guy style cutaways, filler scenes and creating plot points it doesn't visit again.

TheRealJims made a Frank Grimes video. I've seen people take both Frank's side and Homer's. While Frank is a hard-worker and has bad luck he has no reason to blame everything on Homer. he's just being an asshole. Homer, on the other hand, is being obnoxious and is more dumb than he usually is. But he just wants to be genuine friends with Grimes.
