Wirth1000 posted:god drat season 4 is good Bart/Pepe's bigger brother Tom was written to be played by Tom Cruise. They had been trying to get him but he always turned them down, so they made basically a perfect character with no flaws whatsoever to try and coax him into it. He's even an F-14 pilot like Maverick! But he still wouldn't do it, so Phil Hartman got called in (the sign in this fight scene towards the end- "Phil's gas"- also what this episode is running on).

The Bible posted:People who still like the Simpsons only need vague references to things they recognize. What I love about that episode is that clearly, at one point, the writers understood that racial stereotype jokes can become offensive and just plain not funny to a modern audience. Compare that to their completely ham-fisted response to The Problem with Apu. They became the Krusty they were parodying 20 years earlier.

I only just found out that there was a Treehouse of Horror parody of Split. For the villain, who has to play multiple different personalities and voices they use... Lisa.

I know this is old hat but I’ve been streaming season 30 in the background and in episode 11, Marge is trying to get Homer into some pants or something and her voice sounds so loving bad, like, wow. I went back and found a clip of grandma Bouvier from like season 3 or so 4 and it actually sounded better than contemporary Marge. They need to replace her with someone who can actually do the characters voice because she and Lenny are honestly unrecognizable, like, Bart and Lisa sound a little different but Julie Kavner sounds like an entirely different person and it’s jarring as gently caress

They are presumably working very hard on technology to perfectly imitate people's voices, just so that Simpsons episodes can continue to be made after all the main voice actors die of old age. Plus, the computers won't demand pay increases, so there's that to consider.

I always thought the ineptness of the Mark McGwire scene was sort of intentional. You've got the bad acting and the actual bad animation, but what he's doing is lamely stuffing the printout under his cap and then reaches up to "fix" it falling out. It's like, it's supposed to look stupid, because what he's doing is stupid. It's hard to tell where the line is between, like, diegetically bad and accidentally bad
