Which not-a-professionnal-actor guest provides the best voice performance? I think Derek strawberry and some of the other baseball men do a great job

Sex Farm posted:Classic simpsons had a way of turning even mediocre bits into gold with just line readings and animation. One of my favourite line reads is krusty's "HE'S SPINNING THE BALL ON HIS FINGER!" With the simple animation in the television. The bit itself is very weak but just a little bit of juice elevates it. I also love how homer pronounces magic johnson but that is unrelated Just on a random wikipedia drunken-sailor wander I found myself looking at this image  and thinking, god drat what a great joke Just, all the little cultural ingredients that all come together to make a flaming moe of a gag

The Critic absolutely still holds up and is one of those shows that I kind of hope gets a reboot of some sort. The Critic talking about the movie industry of today would be pretty wild. But man seeing the Twin Towers in the opening gets me every time  Anyway, this is my favorite Critic bit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DyPn_3bNzg It is such a perfect encapsulation of what people who hate musicals think musicals are like, written by someone who definitely loves musicals

Plus the animation itself seems similar. Even a little bit of the same tone, from what I've seen. They also both have relatively similar settings, focusing on life in big American cities (They don't quite name the city in Hey Arnold but it's mostly New York) and a parodic approach to pop culture. Wouldn't be surprised if they shared some voice actors. Most everything did back then. (Still does, really)

I never noticed that Hans Moleman is so high up there. I'm trying to remember if he's even in the first episode, or why he might be more likely to shoot Mr. Burns than Grandpa.
