Talking Simpsons - The Lastest Gun in the West With Alexander Edward
Added 2022-10-05 03:59:01 +0000 UTCThat's right, we've got THE Alexander Edward from the great podcast Minion Death Cult for this ep all about old west movie stars! We chat about teamsters in Simpsons, Bart's troubles with a dog, lots of old references to cowboy movies, and a whole lot of chat about Yellowstone for some reason. So lasso up some snacks for this week's podcast!

The stuff the guest was saying about the problems with the voice acting/direction in the later seasons of The Simpsons is very interesting. I have that problem with the acting in the revived version of futurama, but in Futurama I feel like it's cranked up to 11. Nearly every line reading is like that from " into the wild green Yonder" to the end of The Comedy Central era for me

You don't have to re-season them constantly. Just rub them down with vegetable oil after cleaning. As for scrubbing I've got one word for you guys just one word: deglazing.

2022-10-18 22:12:55 +0000 UTCSlight correction - "Wyatt Earp Meets the Mummy" is most likely a reference to an infamously bad (and really cheap) film called "Billy the Kid Verses Dracula." Star John Carradine would later go on to say: "I have worked in a dozen of the greatest, and I have worked in a dozen of the worst. I only regret Billy the Kid Versus Dracula. Otherwise, I regret nothing."

2022-10-14 18:41:33 +0000 UTCAlex was a delight. I always let out a deep breath of relief whenever there's a guest on one of these "newer" episodes that genuinely enjoyed the episode and don't make their entire bit about how the show hasn't made them so much as chuckle in over 20 years. I know, different folks different strokes but sometimes it's just a bummer when it drags on. Then again I was only 10 when this season aired so maybe that's my child brain's knee jerk reaction to defend the teen seasons i was able to catch new. Even commenting this I feel bad like im disperaging past guests, im not trying to, but episodes with guests like Alex I find myself smiling at how they come off as genuinely enjoying and laughing at the jokes. Oh and I was really hoping somebody else would have been a bigger nerd and pointed this out already but not the first time we've seen Pimply Faced Teen get action! I believe the first was in Mom and Pop Art when they show he was promoted at the tool store.

2022-10-13 23:55:48 +0000 UTCIn both versions of True Grit the character of LaBoeuf is the one who spanks the girl while Rooster Cogburn puts a stop to it with his gun. Hopefully someone at the Talking Simpsons factory is fired for that blunder.

2022-10-11 11:33:45 +0000 UTCI was surprised to learn this episode was hated. This was a highlight of its era for me. Basically every Buck line cracks me up.

2022-10-07 14:52:52 +0000 UTCAlex was great. Super cool to hear someone on the show that’s not only a huge fan but throws in references to Cleveland hardcore amongst other things. Seems like a super cool dude.

2022-10-07 08:01:41 +0000 UTC"Most people just mutter that" kinda redeems this episode for me. That is such a perfect joke.

2022-10-06 19:31:37 +0000 UTCIs this the stealth worst episode of the Simpsons? Sure there is Lady Gaga, the episode where the town tells Bart to kill himself or the episode where Bat lets Homer hang from a tree but man this is such a nothing episode. There’s a couple good lines here but boy is it uninspired. Cowboys? Even in 2002 a young boy getting into Westerns seems incredulous.
