I still liked Robot Chicken's Great Pumpkin better.

I wish they'd done it verbatim.

Best part: Homer Simpson is an Obama Supporter.
Worst part: Everything else.

I see why McCain's Campaign protested the episode.
guess it makes a change - Abe and Homer Simpsons have generally been Republican supporters "That's the Demicrats for you".

The Simpsons support whatever party is funniest at the time. Remember when Sideshow Bob ran for mayor and they had the whole "evil Republicans" thing? But, years earlier...

SIDESHOW BOB: You can't keep the Democrats out of the White House forever! And when they're back, I'm out on the street with all of my criminal buddies!

Which is interesting because they established Abe as being a Communist in the episode with the Stone Cutters.

And Abe said Homer was a communist in Simpsons Tide but I Grandpa is loosing it so we won't put too much stead in what he says :)

True. He did seem surprised when he saw the card in his wallet.

Yeah, but Bob is still expressing a Republican sentiment there, that Democrats are soft on crime. And it wouldn't be the first or last time a Republican has found it in his selfish interest to root for a Democrat. I just got a hilarious mailer from the Republican congressional incumbent in our district, who's suddenly trying to paint himself as an Obama ally even though he's been criticizing Obama for most of the race.

I didn't enjoy that very much :vulcan:

Shame because I think this and the last season were back on the up again quality wise.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

^ They've already been autorenewed for three more seasons so I think they're trying to keep the quality in the background so they can keep going.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

I only found two moments in the Transformers part to be funny -- when the pink stereo Harmony had a deep guy voice and the Christmas tree angel being fried and having a skeleton.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

I gave it a below average because the Charlie Brown segment wasn't horrible, but the other two segments were just sad.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

The Grand Pumpkin and Mad Men opening spoof were the highlights.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

For the Mad Men spoof, the only highlights were the Charlton Heston commercial and the absurd way Homer killed Neil Armstrong. The other celebrity commercials really fell flat and didn't look like much effort was put into them.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

Average. Reminds me why I stopped watching this show eons ago.

The Peanuts parody was cute till they brought in the giant turkey, wtf. :wtf:
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

I was bored while watching it.
 
Re: The Simpsons: "Treehouse of Terror XIX" 11/2 - Grading & Discussio

I enjoyed the episode, gave it an above average
