Worst episode ever!

There's no emoticon for what I'm feeling!

I see Karen has already addressed this topic, but too bad. Last night's episode of The Simpsons was the first time that I didn't get more than a couple of chuckles out of the show.

What the hell was that? Who thought it was funny to include an extended sequence of Maggie dusting off one arm, then the other, then pausing, then shaking the dust out of her hair, then pausing again, then adjusting her ribbon? Or shocking Sideshow Bob over and over and over again? At least when they did it before, they managed to make it funny.

And let's not even get into the absurdity of the whole plot. I mean, apart from Marge giving it away right at the beginning (why mention a dead guy as one of Homer's enemies?)

One bad episode doth not "jumping the shark" make. But I certainly hope they fire whoever wrote that piece of drek.
