Marge. Now that you're rich, you really should get rid of that bag. Really, I'm so used to my old one, old one. They're convincing Marge to dump me. Oh it's easy. I get a new one every two years from Italy. You would love a big black one four finger discount dude, welcome to four figure discount. With this week we hit to review episode seven of season nineteen of The Simpsons. It is Husbands and Knives. I'm Danno and I am guy, and I charged this episode with an
egregious waste of Jack Black. I posted in the four finger discount Patreon group last night, and I think on a discord as well that I've got a rant coming. Right. I saw this and I was like, so wait, as not necessarily anything that happens in the episode that bothered me with this one? Right, Yes, this is it. You just mentioned Jack Black, one of my favorite actors of all time. At this point of this episode, When to add two thousand and seven one of the biggest stars into
what's still one of the biggest stars in the world. Right, who among us does not like the Jabels? And he feels like the kind of guy who I don't want to hear that we only had it for a certain amount of time. He feels like the kind of guy who if you said we want to have you on the Simson, he go where when? How long did need before? Sometimes when you say a little something goes a long way, it can be a backhanded confidence, like this person's a bit much,
yes, but a little little Jack Black goes a long way. He's concentrated chaos and mayhem in the best possible way. Yea. Yet in this episode, I feel like we got there's not a lot of jabels I mean, or not not properly utilized, not exploit it to the best of his abilities. So what bothered me with this right was I was so excited at the start because I when, what's what's the character's name that he plays running Coolsville. I'll find it in the second anyway, the character finds in Carsville,
right, let's find it. His name is Milo Mylo. That's right, Mylo, the owner of Callsville, the new comic book store here in Springfield that is now hipper and cooler and more with it. It's you know, it's finally happened to comic book guy. It'll happen to you it's happen to combook Guy. Right, it's the two thousand and seven equivalent of what people thought a comic book store should be. Everyone loved it. Right he came out, he started speaking. I thought that's somebody. I listened. I
thought, oh, wait a minute, it's jap Back. I never knew Japbacker was on The Simpsons. I was super excited. Right, I couldn't believe it. I thought, this is going to be great, a whole
episode around Milo versus Comic book Guy. Yes, nay, no, it was not that we had an entire first act that I really enjoy with the comic book stores and comic book Guy getting his ar com uppins for being a joke all these years, and his store closes down right, which leads Marsh to opening up her own gym where the Androids Dungeon used to be right correct. What shipped me about this was that after that first act, there is
no reference to the comic book stores anymore. There is mylett Jack Blacks don't have been referenced anymore. So the comic book store is closed down, gone right. Apparently Marge has turned it into a gym. She's now incredibly successful. Now, I preface this by saying, Matt, someone I know you wrote this episode, and I love you. We went for dinner, we shared a drink, pals, right, But the thing is that what it
takes, is that all it takes. But the thing is Okay, Matt, So you wrote this plot point where we have a new comic book store on Springfield, a really fun, interesting development, right, And I'm sitting here thinking as a fan, holy shit, is Jack going to be a recurring character as this new comic book store, Because by the end of the episode, there's no explanation about getting back to the status quo. It is assumed he must be still there. Yes, indeed, now do you want
to continue? Because yes, I'm okay, I'm nearly done, right, so I'm gonna I'm not gonna stop it, so I can't stop it. So it got to the end of the episode, and you don't have to get back to the status quo every time, right, but least explain something, right, you have to see it go full back to the statusquad but
explain something. You can't introduce Coolsville as a comic book store. Comic book Guy goes out of business, March opens up shapes in return in its place and never reference it again for the whole episode, because as a viewer in two thousand and seven, I would have been sitting there going, okay, cool. Next episode is going to be now Coolsville's giving the new comic book Store. They never referenced Coolsville again. Ever, why did I have the ball? No? No, I'm going to do two things. Yeah.
First of all, I'm going to suggest that the writers of the show Matt's elman at all in the writer's room, maybe gave themselves a bit of an escape hatch. Then secondly, I'm going to do Matt and his pals are solid by fixing your episode. Fuck this guy, But isn't that guy who for what how many fingers? Just that one to me? Sorry, I love you, you didn't you didn't buy me dinner? We invited you?
And is the bet I invited guy to that dinner and he's like, no, no, no, not by the And then at the end, I was like, oh, we went for dinner with Phil Rosenfall and Matt and he was like, well, don't to me, I would it come? And I'm like, because it was just me, that's correct. Okay, I will say that in the very early stage of this episode where they're talking about, you know, the the various comic book imprints and how yeah, this happened, but you know it wasn't continuity all that kind of stuff.
They're sort of planning a seed for, like what happens in this episode doesn't really happen. It's not canon. It's just it's just a bunch of stuff that happens. It's not a great escape patch, but it's it's sort of plausible deniability on their part. Perhaps perhaps I'm not saying this is actual fact, but it's one way that I read it. I don't say that I
approve of it, but I'm saying that it's happened. Second thing is, here's where I fixed the episode, because okay, you've got two competing businesses in that you've got the Androids Dungeon and now you've got Coolsville. The way I would set it up is comic book guy is annoying, and you know, he overcharges and he's rude to the customers, all this kind of stuff,
but he's legit. He legitimately loves comic books, he loves the law, everything about it, and you know he'll he's like you need to throw in the scene where he actually sort of steers someone in the right direction, goes, well, if you actually like that coming book, you would probably enjoy this win very that. I just couldn't believe they didn't go back. This would have been a great b plot to go back to throughout the episode.
Yeah, and that's the thing. You make him legit. But then Colesville sets up Milo looks like a great guy, talks the talk, doesn't necessarily walk the walk in what way, but they already established it. He knows a lot about superheroes and he brings Yeah, I think you need to make him like a real opportunity, Like there's money and then their comic book stores and he's done his reading. But he's a pretender, he's a poser, and you know, it's sort of makes a super fan with money.
Yeah, he's who brought the monorail. What's what's the Lanley? Yeah, he's a Lyle Lanley comic to that extent. But no, no, no, but yeah, he's a bit of a he's a bit of a charlatan, you know. And at the end, you know, like, uh, well the money's falling out of the comic book thing. I'm going to go open a something other store. I'm going to go open a frozen yogurt store because that's where the money is. Now. Yeah, true, I
think that. I think the way they could have done it was maybe he wasn't a fan of radioactive Man or something, and that's Springfield's go to heroes and a radioactive man. Yeah, or yeah, he gets busted, sort of saying to Strawberry, his girlfriend, these kids are so amazing hanging out with his comic book nerds. Everyone inteslbs, Yeah, making a gabbo. Everything is improved by making them a gabbo. Now that's your your b plot. And you have that sort of you have nice double helix going on where
Marge is opening an authentic gym. Is she still successful? Don't know that everyone that everyone's into, But she gets overrun by like the fake post gym, like La body Works or whatever. They do some weird thing to basically screw her out of her business. It restores the sautus quo, and you've
got two storylines that sort of intersecting and sort of interconnected. But one shows that yeah, authenticity wins out and the other one goes no where suckers and we'll fall for We'll fall for a ruse if it's done, and if it's wrapped up in a nice packaging to little package and they will package. Look this, this needs work on my part, but I think that would be I think that's something you could do in the course of you know, minutes, twenty two minutes. I was just fiber gas. They didn't go back
to it. I thought, you you got Jack Black. Hell are you not using Jack Black in the time that he's there. It feels like Jack Black is giving one hundred and fifty percent. Yeah, yet he's not given a whole lot. He's he was given fifty percent worth of material and he
gave one hundred and fifty percent in effort. I don't know. It just didn't feel like if you told me this was a really good Jack Black impersonator, I would maybe think that, or you wrote we wrote we wrote this for someone who wouldn't be great if we got Jack Black to do this like Jack Black and then be full Jack Black, and then you actually got Jack Black to do it. It's just fun to say Jack Black. It's a great name. But I just it seems like a great guy he would have
been. He would have been willing to stick around for the full twenty two minutes. You could have got a twenty two minute story out of just that plot. I reckon probably would have been better if it's just been a B pluck. You would have kept the best bits just Jack Black, just spliced throughout the episode. But he's also I think we all of him because we think he's a lovely, big bear of a dude in just general coolness. I want to see him turn heel. I'm sure he can do a heel
turn. Hills Bowser exactly does a heel turn. So he does a heel turn, and they're like, ah, these kids, fuck them. Exact words, exact words, Matt Selman. They're not going to be winners. No, all of guys ideas. But anyway, that's what that's what I
thought could have been done in this episode. And as a critic, I kind of respect recently said about a movie that everyone thought was going to be popular turn out not to be that popular when you're thinking about the better version of a movie while you're watching the actual movie that shows that movie does not work. Yeah, I said that comment on that YouTube video on the Mac and Me soundtrack, saying I want to see the movie that Allen especially thought
he was scoring. Absolutely, but I'll just got here in my notes. Are we now entering the era where status quo is just assumed rather than explained? Because that's going to bother me. I think that is The Simpsons has established itself as a show that they always get back to the status quo, but they give us a reason or explanation as to how and why. It can't just be that my dog's bike. It would be the Postman. I
reckon dropping off my DVD's umbrellant detainment movie The Legitimate Friends. But if you barging, it's Jet, the lovable Jet. We love him here for thinking discount. I don't think anyone's going to complain if they hear willfully here's the going buddy. Yeah man, But the thing is so the status quo,
right, they always explained how and why. I don't want to get to an end of an episode as a viewer, right, So, say two thousand and seven, I was watching this, you would ended this episode and think, oh, Marge's now go a successful franchise and they're rich, and Comic book Guy is no longer in business, and Cools is a new store, and Jack Black's going to be a recurring character as the owner of the store. No next episode. It's literally just nothing happened. Comic book stores
opened again, no shapes, and Coolsville's non existent. How does that happen? I don't know. That's as I said, Matt, I love you, but that has taken the viewers for granted. I think, because you've got to explain something. We are willing to accept status quo. Whatever absurd explanation to give us will take it up. By this point, right, major development, but don't just go it doesn't matter. They'll just forget about
the week after. That's not what Simpson's fans do. And that's I think why a lot of people, if this is a recurring thing, maybe that's why people jumped off the show for a while or now. Still, that makes a lot of sense to me, because if I'm watching a show that I dedicated so long for and I've watched for so long, I love it, and then all of a sudden they just started having storylines that don't have endings, and then the next episode is just like, Oh, that doesn't
happen, that never happened, that doesn't exist. That would bother me to the point where, gay, well you don't, you don't respect me as a viewer anymore. Well, something where it's this pivotal, it's huge. It really guys out of business. The Simpsons are now rich and rich, successful with a gym franchise, and it's just not existent in the following episode. So you have actually had the surgery in March has to spend all of their fortune to get home and back to normal. Something stupid like that,
right, Actually, yeah, that works, just something silly. I don't just give us something, give me something. I don't think. I think we would probably be griping about if March Blue of fortune on restoring home at a home. But still, yeah, you would feel like, oh, well, at least they've made the effort to revert us back to factory settings. Yeah, just I wanted something and just really annoyed me. That was my rant that you established all these changes. And we know Matt doesn't he
doesn't care about Cannon and all that kind of thing. Right, that's fine, but he always falls back on that each episode lives in his own bubble. But you got to this is too pivotal. Yeah, like Comic book Guy's been there. From the season two, the Androids Dungeons are a big part of the show. The Simpsons are now rich, Marge is hugely successful with a gym franchise. You have to take that away from her. Yeah, of course I'm gonna like my idea. But I do like my idea.
Yeah, Milo the comic book guy being yeah, just a fly by night operator who's like, well, well, there's no money in comic books anymore, so like, look, I'm gonna go do something else. All the kids are like, but we trusted. He's like that, that's your bad luck, mate, where's comic book guy? He can't do anything else? You know, he could have done, He could have had maybe kind of like cartman Land right recently, where I actually just can't know someone to
that at all. But you know, gone down the South check it out if you haven't already. So comic book guy goes out of business. Coolsville's going well, and then after a while the guy Milo realizes, oh shit, like there's no money in this, like I'm losing a ton of money. Corm book go goes, well, well, well I can take it over for you, and he takes over and he becomes a new owner of
Coolsville just turns it back into the dungeon. Yeah, you're lasting to see, is the cools who design can be down and like or just a a really makeshift siut of like Androids Dungeon. Yeah, because the Androids Dungeon has been completely gutted and turned into the Shapes. Yeah what you or you get
a fancied up big Androids dungeon in the cool Ville. At least have Marge sell the franchise of Shapes to somebody, right, maybe maybe comp guy, I don't know it anyway, and it's Rich Texan Or was it Lindsay Nagel who was at La body Works that looked or that kind of it wasn't it was them swooping. Yeah, it's like, Marge, we really like your body positively, gym. We think that's really the way that it's fleet to
Peter against the Petzel Wagon. Yeah, and then they buy it and they just turn into La body Works or whatever it is, and that's it, and then you just have take over calls Villain turn it back into the Androids. As I said, I really liked that idea of authenticity wins on one hand, and corporate cynicism wins. On the other hand, that strikes me
as classic Simpsons, It really does. You could end the episode with him getting all those quirky comics that weren't normally availble in Springs FLD and going no, thank you, put them in the bin or something, and then you have Alan Moore up top coat that fucking guy. Yeah, yeah, being classic Alan Moore grump. Yeah. Just that's it. That's what we had to do. That's all you had to do, man, that's all you
have to do. Mat We worked it out in twenty minutes. My favorite What were your favorite moments of the episode if you did have any, though I don't know my revised version. I didn't mind the I'm going to the successful Ladies room with the dollar sign on the lady as a gay look, despite what we were saying about cools will cause we're a little pretty neat by the way, I enjoyed this episode. Just that structure bothered me, but
overall the episode I actually enjoyed. This is one of those episodes where I liked the idea, I like the foundation, and I just don't think it was executed all that well. Okay, yeah, in what way? Oh, they didn't have an ending. Yeah, there's that. Yeah, the whole as you were saying about this feels like canon. Now. It was weird, wasn't it. And then when it got to the end, you went, oh, because how do you write an episode? I have a
beginning, middle, and end. It's like they've got to the two thirds into the episode and went and that's the end of the episode. But where's the end? What? It honestly felt like a first draft of an episode as opposed to an episode or a bunch of ideas that we had for an episode, and it neithered one or two more passes of like, Okay, how do we make this work? How do we fold this into this? At least home it's not being a jerk in recent episodes, but in this
one here this isn't having being a jerk. He's sort of living the high life. But then he realizes, oh shit, I need to up my game here she's going to replace me. So he's constantly trying to find a way to please Marche. It's not him just I feel like last season even they would have had Homer just being an absolute dick and spending all the March's money all the time on useless shit. He wasn't doing it if she just sitting by a pool, enjoying, enjoying life, enjoying the extra money.
And in the rest of the episode, he was spent trying to work out how to keep Marge, which I thought was nice. Yeah, no, I think I agree with you on that point. And I'd go over the top, which you and I would do if we thought were losing the love of the weazon on they we'd go over the top and get tea ducks and antipoles and whatnot. Look the reason I started to zero out a bit of sugar from my diet and you know, get my steps and everything. I
was like, I better keep myself in shave with the lovely Louise. Things I enjoyed about this episode. I enjoyed Caulsville. I mean it reminded me of maybe the first time that I set foot in a That's what I thought, in a comic book store, like going to a place like Minataur in Melbourne and Geelong had its own Minotaur for a while. When you find that place that has obscure shit, you're like, I've always wanted to see this,
all my favorite books in one place. You were talking about Premiere the magazine when you went first availed in Australia, the movie magazine, when you discover something that you thought, oh my god. That there was a news agency in Norlay and here in Gelan's where I grew up right and they were the only place locally that stocked the Simpson's comics. And there was another news agency about, I don't know, ten minute drive away. They didn't have
it. But I went to this other particularly when they had the Simpsons comics, and I'm like, thank you, because you're the only source of this. That's what cool feels like. You know, we're finding that place, that store that stock something that you couldn't find anywhere else. Absolutely. Yeah, so you really feel like, oh my home, my people. Yes, yeah, I mentioned Alan Moore before. I love that they just played up his reputation as a notorious grump. He hated Viva Vendetta or something.
He did want his name in the credits Watchmen as well. I think they made the Watchman movie when Zack Snyder made it, it was like, not really my Watchmen, even though you know, it's pretty faithful adaptation in a lot of ways. Yeah. Yeah, but I liked how they were just sort of playing him up and then occasionally what was he singing about it? Little Lulu or he was reading that one? Yeah, singing the song.
I thought that was quite funny. Also, I don't know if it's been memed a whole lot, but I certainly have it in my image just folder no no house, holding up Watchman Baby's Viva Vacation. I don't know that was But what what mean do you use that for? Okay, it's not really a memes just yeah, someone had screenshot at once. That's pretty funny. I'm probably can use it as a rejoint as a witty bit of banter. This is another example, by the way of an episode post season ten
has a classic mean moment, Homer with the back fat. So it's like when you're trying to explain someone's hiding something to have coming from the front and you coat home from behind, and that gets used so often. I'm putting a list together, guys, of classic moments that get meaned every single day in The Simpsons. Groups that don't come in the first what you call the Golden era. So all you people with a bitch that The Simpsons is no
good. Post season ten what you using screencaps post season ten? That's my question. Sounds a little hypocritical, little bit a little bit. I thought they're sneaking some pretty risquee lines into the Simpsons recently. Tell me, well, we had the Tress of horoweels love. I love watching you do other men? Right, Yes, this one here, they say, you like a really big black one. You also saw the hands, Yeah, yeah, And I was like, I was like, oh my, what else
did you enjoy? I this isn't a line, This isn't a visual gag. I just like the shot of Homer and Marge walking handed handed the end through the park where Jebedi Springfield statue is right on the bench, is a poor man duel, just sitting there enjoying each other's company. And the background you see Flanders throwing the frisbee. I think it's Todd, right, is the oldest one throwing the frisbee of Rod. It was just a nice little
moment of just Springfield in the field community. I was like, we don't get much of this anymore, and I'm seeing just them throwing the frisbee is like they didn't need to put those there in the background. It just added that sense of community. I liked it. Yeah, I mean I think something that appealed to a lot of Simpsons fans in the early days. And as you say, they quite unquite golden era. Is that balance of as
I mentioned before, ah, sweetness and cynicism or authenticity and cynicism. I mean it's gonna the show was gonna say, look, the world kind of suck sometimes and occasionally the bad guys will win. But you know, if you've got a good support network of family, people, we love friends, all that kind of business can't help see you through. And the show will
balance those two elements very very well at its best. Radio Bart's a perfect example where everyone wanted to help little Timmy and they found it Bart was screwing them over, like ah, fuck back yod. It's a old, good, old fashion hold. And when and when the balance is off, you can feel like you're trying too hard to be something you're not, or you're steering too hard into what you think we want and now we've just got it's
too sweet. My teeth are rotting in my head, or we're just in an ear of The Simpsons where it's very cynical and everyone seems to be angry at each other or mean to each other. Lenny and Karl a perfect example. What's happened to Lenny and Karl. I don't know everyone's mean, but seeing this lovely just set up. It's just the scene of flannels of the Frisbee a poor man. George is saying anything to sit there, hold each other's hand. I thought this was nice. So when when was this?
When did this air? This is one thousand and seven, two thousands. Okay, you're still in America, at least you're in the tail end of the George W. Bush era. It's still it's essentially post nine to eleven. America is kind of a cynical place. I mean, that's why it's why Obama got elected in two thousand and eight, because brought us hope. Well, comedy was just very cynical on that. But our family guy was still quite popular, and yeah, the culture reflects that. Yeah, it's
got a bit of a bitter aftertaste.

Yeah, seventy four. I've got ninety four, but you could be No, I think you might be right, right, Okay, yeah it was a four, But yeah, I think you might be correct. I think I think we're bringing a lot of trivia from the comic. My next one is not I don't why

Milo covers comic book guy who's standing in the window with a standy of who's the hut? Yes, while we're there, Milo's girlfriend Strawberry. Her purse is a lunchbox. Who was on that lunch book? Good question? What is it? It's Malibus Stacy Malibu, Stacey weird. You wouldn't think Strawberry, the girlfriend of Mila would have
Meloby Stacey on her unless she's being ironic. Probably, so tell let's get into our view of husbands and knives, shall we. So? The visual air date November eighteenth, two thousand and seven. Production code j AB F one seven, written by the amazing, legendary, stupendous Matt Salmon, Can Do No Wrong, Can do No Wrong. I think it's I think it's kind of appropriate.

codes going to have a JAB. So you've got JAB and you've got jabells as the as the guest are coincidence, probably written but I directed by Nancy Cruz. So guest starring Jack Black as Milo, and we also get Ye Daniel Dan Klaus as himself. Maurice mauris La Marsh was one of the boyfriends, one of the trophy husbands. Maurice just rocks up everywhere. Now he's
the go to guys. He's the man with the golden tonsils. Might not make it take advantage, yeah, Alan Moore and speak on the spigger one Yes, apparently so sang and Lee is the Korean singer doing the Tom Jones songs. Perhaps so. The episode kicks off with They're in the comic book store and they're just perusing around and I've just got this was by the way, did you mention the cook you've done the trop into the chop? Because I had both of them, this one didn't it. Yeah, the pilgrims
were not illegal aliens. I'm just so used to them skipping it now. Yea, and the couch gave two hands with five fingers instead of four. Open up a pop up book to reveal the family sitting on the couch. Pop up books. They may skip it. That's no excuse for us to skip it. No, not at all. Yeah, so kicks off within the comic book store, and it just took me back to I'd go to town. I'd say, monk, can we go to card Mania, which would evolve into pop culture where we both used to work right right by the
way. If you like records, you see a bunch of records behind me here, pop culture records. Check them out. Great comic books are great. Record store in Geelong so much. But walking around card Mania, it was just a different vibe. It was just kids. It was when the boom of Pokemon was on, as well as the kids on stopping their Pokemon cars. But they have action figures as well as like this is the only place that stucks this stuff. It was just it was my heaven card Mania.
I loved it. Well yeah, main for me it's it was yeah Minotaur in Melbourne, which then opened in Geelong, but there was Minta. It was in Geelong where in Marble Street, No ship where this is completely local but I don't care, between Rory and Little Mallet where. Well how long ago was this? Oh god, this was in the late eighties, early night. Oh shit, okay, yeah wow over my first tie went to Minnatauri and Melbourne. I was like entering a new world. Oh yeah,
I just go down those the escalator. Well, they had like three different locations of the first one that I went to was in like a little arcade near the Hoyts Mid City Cinema. I've never been to a Hoyt cinema in my life, haven't you know? The best things in life passed your by? You know what they do as a collector, right, I'll collect ship as you can see. But Hout Cinema always have really good cinema cups. When the films come out, it seems like Hoyt cinemas into the ones
that get the really cool shit. Oh I was very big on Hoints back in the day. It took a left turn into this little arcade that it seems to have netting bigamic books. Of course, when it's like wow, it's like we say, it's just fantastic one. It's like everything I want in one place. And it's like you see some of the stuff they stock and you think, surely you don't expect to sell this stuff but the fact that you've just got to hear is cool. Oh yeah, absolutely to peruse
and never going to purchase, yeah, but purchased. But looking through the racks especially, that felt the variety. It felt incredibly old school as well. I mean, I think a lot of shops these days, a lot of comic book shops are they don't have that sort of array of like a well, big wooden box or whatever. You just now you're doing the bar thing, got it? Got it. That's what I like about old school video vinyl stores. It's like they've just got a section where it's like you're
gonna flick through fantastic not just the classics. Yeah, so but bart's going through the comics. You think some of them are lame, then it's either a characterize or it's a various robber or a very thereof yes, but he finds the Wolverine with the PopOut clause, which cuts Millhouse and were speaking of Wolverine. Seen Wolverine everywhere dead put the moment. I'm kind of sick of seeing Wolverine. Yeah. Everyone's saying there's gonna be a big hit, gonna
save the American movie summer. I'm like, you probably will. But Inside Out two has already done that. Bad Boys Right or Die already did that. By the way, talking about Will Smith coming up soon on Yeah TV Launch pot TV Launch probably just did episode three of the Fresh Prince of Ballet pilots. Basically, if you haven't heard yet, we go back and review the pilot episodes of some of our favorite shows, some shows that we don't
like as well. You guys have the right in mailbagger forthing your discap dot com dot. Are you what show you like us to do the pilot of? But we did Bobs Burger's Buffet, The Van by Slayer, and Fresh Prince of Ballet, which I adored the pilot indeed, But yeah, Deadpool and Wolverine. Look, I'll go see it of course the same time, I don't know all the marketing around is just like you cant best. You can have your tongue wedge too firmly in your cheek. Whoa the infamous Wolverine
comic with PopOut Claus? Why was this so kind reversal? Nice? Worked up your boo who your tears have smudged Wolverine's iconic sade burns. Hence you must buy this comic And the cost of your innocent accident is twenty five dollars. Peace if that's the money yeah yah, Sophia gave me for Greek Orthodox Easter when they tell me things about themselves. Twenty five dollars for the comic, which is equivalent about forty dollars, which is a lot for a kid.
Absolutely for a comic. But what was the radioctive man numb one? I was about a hundred dollars I think for an episode from season two uns about Yeah, Bar says you're stop being mean? Why why are you so mean? Because he's had a monopoly all this time? Where else you gonna go to? You're going to go to the is it the laundry mat or are you gonna get the matter store? Whatever? News at eleven by the way, good name, Yes, and then he sees Colsville and he can't
believe it. What's going on here? And they mentioned here it's like when Superman took over Gotham City. I think it was. That was a made up story Jimmy Olson did when he was kicking head by Supergirl's horse Comet. And Bart's like, none of this stuff really happened, and that's a comic book guy goes, get out of my store. So I feel like that was a good preface. Something could have happened with Milo saying something similar to annoy Bart, which makes Bart go back to the Androids dungeon. Yeah,
and then everybody radio demand. He's like radio demand, he's not the greatest hero of all time. And then Bart goes, hang on a minute, you're not my comic book guy, you know, So that simple could have fixed. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. But he kicks him out and then they get introduced to Milo and he's got that the goatee, the little little sol patch. Yes, he's got the comic bees. In Australia we called it the nole patch. Really, yes, sure, yes,
what's what little shnon ole patch? But and the Japanese hard candy. Hey, what up you guys? How good goes it? My name's Milo and this is Coolsville. Now listen before everyone chills with some sweet comic bees, everyone gets a free piece of Japanese hard candy. One for you short kidden back down, low, go along, I got on, I get myself at Dolphin Now. I hope you all like Korean pop covers of Tom Jones songs, because they're about to be blasted. I'm I'm young bushy. Whoa
Wow, I can actually buy into this, This will actually happen. It's incredibly pandering. But at the same time, this is also the kind of thing that you want from from a from a from a place like this. It's like, Hey, maybe try this French comic book, Try this Japanese candy. Have you heard this Korean? There's a terrific sandwich shop down in Torque called Water Deli. They do fantastic It's really good. Not quite as
good as Aswak, but no, that's still pretty good. But every time I go there, they've got this incredible playlist of like Italian pop songs or something like that. Okay, just feel automatically one cooler. You feel like you're in Italy. Oh yeah, but also in like the coolest part of it, and upset to them, like is this a playlist? Is this on Spotify? Something goes Yeah, the boss made it, and I made
the playlist. Yeah, made the songs. I was like, the boss made this playlist, and I'm like, any chance of getting a linked that, Oh no, oh no, you can only hear it, but you won't give it away our secrets. It's like eleven Hebs and Spices. I am angry, but at the same time I respect it. I'd like to have this playing all the time at my place so it would feel kind of cool. But no, you guard your secrets, you guard your secret source.
You're on Webon Herbs and Spices. You're right when they first said no, did you first think other than they're just joking and then went, oh you're serious. Yeah, I mean that they They weren't like, no, you don't get none of this. It was he keeps it to himself. I'm like, I got to respect the game, but you know, Tom
Jones keep pop covers the Yeah, sorry, but yeah. Honestly, though, if you owned a store like this, wouldn't that be your aim to be like this is cool, but hey, you might want to check this out. What's what I liked about. We've talked about this, I think just recently Empire Records, how they just let people just put whatever records they
want on in the store. And I was like, I missed that where you go to a video store and they'd put on like a movie that they recommend you should check out this one, or it was like the workers recommendations. They still have that a JB to some degree. They're phasing it out though we recommend so, and so it's like like that I like to have that Jamie recommends this. I'm like, I trust Jamie, got Steve, Jamie Steve. But he covers from were standing in the window sad covers in
with the Jebb of the heart cup or cut out. He's playing Guitar Hero, which was huge at the time. I actually busted Guitar Hero out for Elliott about three weeks ago. Loved it, but loved watching me playing because it's still a little bit too hard from understanding the whole strumming at the right time, but the idea of playing the guitar is starting to sort of appreciate it was. It was the perfect game to have it party. Oh yeah,
we're more like seventeen eighteen. You have to have a guitar who I set up somewhere in the room, and there's always at one dickheat though that I thought he was really good, and he was really good, but us like, it's a video game. Man, it's like karaoke. You don't. Yeah, occasionally you want someone who bust out some real good pipes, but mostly it's just like we're all just yelling. We're all we're all shit. Yeah. But Lisa finds her tinting comics, which are rare in Springfield.
She rips it. He goes like, don't worry. These are made to be enjoyed. And I was like, that's what you want. Where it's like, you know when you have just mentioned here that not hoarded and sold when divorced, and I thought, you know what, Since having kids, I've realized she could just come out of packets, you know. I do like nerdaddy videos with the kids and back in the day, be like keep in the box, make sure they don't get damage. Now, like
Ali goes, come open this, I'm like, why not? Oh yeah, who cares something read something great that I read the other day, So something I'm aiming to live by. Someone said, oh, oh you're getting this high end coffee. It must be for special occasions, I said, and I drink this all the time. Being alive is as special occasion as it gets. Yeah, remember that being alive is a occasion as it gets every day. You appreciate it every day. I appreciate it. All right.
I get it. You're cool, You're not mainstream. You wear a pork pie hat. Pork pie. I thought the cutaway here was so family guy and bizarre because looking at him there with his port pie hat and just cuts to home and go, hmm, poor pie. Yeah, that was it was like, what the hell? That was so family guy? That was very much so. I was like, wait a minute, so we're here now, but we're not going out? Had it home? And I don't know, so bizarre, but he questions his superhero what you need?
Was he here? Sort of like a faint echo of anything, Yeah, anything food related? Home is going to pick on on by his magical hunger SONA I don't know, questions is superhero knowledge Thungue versus Mulk? Who would win? But then he says the butt, who do you think? He's like, oh my god, you care what I think? Oh my god, Coolsville artists signing now. Marge drops him off. Enjoy your funny books. And this is where the March story starts, essentially because she sees the
Wonder Woman's standy. This is another group of Marge has never changed body shape for the entire series. She's always been a milf. She's been sexy. Everyone's always gone Marge is sexy right now, she's apparently overweight and needs to lose weight. What are we doing here? Yeah? I'm not doing with this body shaming. It felt really odd, like Marge is not fat, no at all, She's really skinny. Yeah, and you I don't think
she would start having body image problems based on one standy. No. I think there should be messages all throughout Springfield that are sort of giving her an impressions like hmm, I don't look like this, because then the boys are like calling her fat as well, and I'm like, what do you mean? Yeah, that whole thing with the three bullies was just that they don't
they don't know what to do with these bullies anymore. They don't they've they've emasculated them to where the kids aren't really even necessarily scared of them anymore. It's more just infighting, goofballs. Now, it's just yeah, Lenny and Carl don't tend to know who they are anymore. The three three bullies, I don't know what they're doing with them anymore. It's bizarre odd. Yeah, And whenever I see them now on the screen, I go, remember
last the last week, I'm talking about Willie. He'll buy your drinks, but you'll make your share. I was like, these guys aren't funny. No, I mean, what are you trying to make him like Statler and would of something from The Muppet Show? Who were good? They were good. I finally finished Jim Henson documentary. Oh yeah, I did not expect the chapter to be Jim Jim Henson womanizer, just divorce in his late forties,
like he didn't want to Loncho a relationship he is like dating. I was like, god, Jim, Wow, that's a good Jim was getting busy. Yeah, but basically so Marge here, she's now body conscious. Kearney mocks her and then Dolph mocks his mum, calls her fat just a whole bunch of fat Jamie Man. Marge thinks she still looks over at the combook Guy's store, which is going out of business. That's the last we see of it. And then lastly he's even mentioned and she envisions shapes where
she's getting the money for shapes. I'm not too sure. That's a really good point. Yeah, Lisa, you can't believe all these artists are here, though, she says, I think it's to Dan I identified with ghost Well, the girls in ghost World. He's like, I don't care, do you know an know what works at Batman? I want to draw Batman. And these three appearances felt like as a kid watched this, I wouldn't have any clue they are. This was we like these guys, We're going
to get them onto the show. Yeah, it felt the authors on. Yeah, it felt very much like a schedule, and he was like, we can finally get all three of them at once. Yeah, so let's do it. It also felt like a decade and a half too late for because I think the glory days of art BigMan's Mouse. I've forgotten when Ghostworld came out, but that felt like late nineties, maybe early two thousands and
Alan Moore. I mean, Alan was an absolute legend in the comics game, and you know his big well, his Big Watchman book was probably late eighties as well. I mean, all these names are still recognizable among those in the know, if you know, you know. But it also felt like, yeah, just a little too little, too late. Yeah, but I mean it's a fine guest appear. Oh yeah, they're goo. Yeah, they're good appearance. Yeah. But at the same time just yesterday's
news in some ways. But the thing is, that's it. Basically, so coma guy enters attention. Comic book officionados, This man is not one of us. He has a girlfriend. My name Strawberry. My purse is a lunchbox. Now listen up, my we weird little fanboys. I have the most wonderful news. My store now sells ninja weapons. Whoa you would sell weapons of the Orient to children? That is weak face of facts has
been This man is the comic book guy our town deserves pretty will. I guess the mature thing to do is you do see a lot of stores selling random ship that try and keep up with Yeah, they mock him. So he destroys everything and the leagu of extraordinary freelancers activate and how do you like this punchline? They beat him up and that's it. That's the end of the comic book story in this whole episode. Could not believe my eyes. I kept sitting there watching it, going when are we going back to the
story? Yeah, I thought, I'm like, that's the poster, Like, that's the marketing for the episode was Milo Coolsville. That's how it was market on TV. That's why are we going to another March Homer story? I mean, this Marge story could have been this oame episode. I think, so, Yeah, it's what a weird set up for a March opening a gym. That's she gets my understanding and goes, oh, I'm fat
I need to start a gym now. It feels really odd. I mean, I hate to keep using the phrase A bunch of ideas that were sort of lying around on that. That's why then I go together, because they couldn't actually intertwine them. That just went here's one episode and here's the next one. It was like two episodes just emagulated together. It was weird.
Not a fan at all. But Marge then arrives at La Bodyworks, so she's shown the various classes, including Mummy and Me kickboxing, and then the treadmills me getting okay go reference here, which was kind of time because that was two thousand and six. My kids love that theme song. I always really appreciated that those guys went the extra yard to make a really cool film clip. Oh. Absolutely, our clips aren'tally a thing anymore. I don't
think does anyone watch film clips. I don't think so. No, Because when were kids growing up in the nineties, we had video hits and rage, and you watched the film clips. That was the only way to sort of get access to the song unless you heard on the radio or you purchased it, right, I mean now, I guess you would make it for TikTok. We still put on YouTube. I'm assuming there's still videos. I think imagine you put your artist name the bo thing or whatever, but people
aren't. It's not put in front of the same eyeballs. Basically, when we're growing up, it was here's the top ten, watched the same songs, and it's like the following week it's now number three, and it's back to number two. That's number seven. But so yeah, so we get the okay go then Marge is being washing the shower by side show Mellen.
Various people. I thought, what's the gag here? Showers aren't public gyms, No, But see it's something they didn't really flesh out all that well, the fact that a gym like La Body Works is more performative than it is actual pumping iron. It's not enough to actually put in the ails and do that and sweat up a storm. People have to see you doing it, and you have to look lamorous doing it, and that would extend the
showers as well. It's like, well, you're constantly on show. It's like, well I've had a hard workout, now time to clean myself off. I might as well do it where people can see it. They didn't explain it all that well. I mean, it's not the sign of a bad episode, but the sign of an episode that could be better. When you're feeling in the blanks for it, or you're it's not making excuses for it. That's what I'm doing. I made a mistake. I apologize listeners.
This is where she looks over the road because she's disappointed by l A Body where she feels like she can't go to this gym. That's when she envisioned Shapes. Because now comic book guys saw is going out of at a business which I thought was really I saw that, I went, oh, that's sad. I hope that's not canon. I'm glad the Android Dungeon is still around because that's such a core part of the show's identity. Identity. Yeah, that's what bart Mill has. That's where the kids hang out,
that's their thing. And Coolsville seems like a really cool place at first, but I'm thinking Android's Dungeon just has that history. Yeah, and I think you'll find that it's dirty, it's grimy, that the owners mean, that's what a comic book store felt like. Yeah, and there are a lot
of places like that. The will continually last because you know, they keep their rob heads low or they overcharge or whatever, and someone who's trying to cash in on the latest trend will invariably over capitalize move on, and it's like, ah, no, we can't afford to do this anymore, and blah blah blah. Yeah, but the life is staying. The life between Vision Shapes here, no men, no cell phones, no mirrors, no shame, And Homer questions, why would we want to go to a gym
without men judging them and whatnot. It looks outside seas the line we're gonna be rich. We can start a family. We already have a family.
We'll start a better family.

Lisa's like the little secretary then at the desk, so she says he's gonn have to open up a second store when she does that, Crusty Burger, I can't believe the labor board is shutting me down. You lock your workers in at night, it's
so they can't tell their stories. Mister krusty kent to by village. He said he would marry me. No ring, just fill apple pies all day. Now Marge's now a huge success. She's on the open show. My boyfriend thinks you too. And then she asked about popping the question everyone gets cocoo class. That was the thing for a while because Oprah wasn't married or something wrong. Well, she had the long term partner in Steadman yes aka straight man. Yes, okay, but yeah, the lady swapping her bababy
finally yes, Now Palm Springfield Resort for the business trip. Homer steals the remote because no one's ever trust him with the remote before, but still that's why he steals it. Now Homer knows why pimps are so happy though.
It was a funny line. And the other husbands they now they're introduced into the life of wife support and he realizes, here, oh shit, she's gonna be trading up soon because they went the first husband's They were the second husbands who do find it a little bit later though, that one of them is still a first husband. But he just gave himself the personal up fixed himself. Yeah, so I like they using car was are you sure I'm talking about cars, using a lot of words, card words. Homer says,
don't worry. I'm the anchor that weighs her down. And you know, once she seems like happy and it was interested in talking about a day and she seems happy and full of life, that's when you know she's going to be moving on. So Homer goes in there, and of course she does all those things, all those things, and he starts starts crying and still at the same time without the business function, and Homer thinks he thinks
they're talking about dumping Homer. They're talking about getting a new handbag. That's where we mentioned the whole really big black one and the hand gesture. Yeah. But she goes to the successful ladies room. There's my Homo six of advice from a man who was actually a first husband, not a second husband. He explains is how you get into shape, exercise, eat well, and dress nice. It's like hmm, stomach stapled homes. Now the plastic
surgeon where they're correcting Gud's mistakes. That's the little sub pedline there, and the doc says, I can do it today. I didn't get the whole home, knocking himself out by riding the bill. What was yeah was that they were trying to say you thought he was going to be passing it because it was so expensive, but it was actually really cheap, and he still knocked himself out. It's not a very good joke. No, not really. I love that you at the table read that happens and you just sit
there. It's not a very good joke. I wonder if you were at a Simpson's table read whether you would feel the need to have to laugh at things you didn't necessarily find all that funny. Do you think you could be honest if you went to a Simpsons table read now? Do you think you'd be talking about me? Or you and I get invited to a table read in six months, right we go there. Do you feel like you would be over enthusiastic and feel like, oh, yeah, that was really really
good? Or do you think you'd be brutally honest? I like to think I would be something. I wouldn't be brutally honest, but I'd be like, may I suggest this? No you may not. Room. You're a guest here, but home is now thinner, says the underwet surgery to please Marge, you'd get your hot dog plumped. I thought, oh shit, oh yeah, that's like where do I get that? Where do I get that? But no, he's getting stomach staple. So he's blending out food.
The gag at the end of this again, it's like I'm waiting for a punchline and all you had was more food toastes like baf Now, yes, but you didn't find a joke there though that we knew that was going to be the result. But that's not a joke. Yeah, I mean I would I would have preferred him blending the pizza into a paste or whatever, like him pouring into like a fancy wine glass or something. Yeah, do it like a sophisticated man, or putting into a tea cup and having
like the little pinky. Yeah, like, hey you eat all the fizzy you like? Now Dad loopholes and then blends it up and drinks it. It's like something like that, but just a toste like buf Now what you didn't think of anything there? It's nothing margin And is the bedroom? Oh you remember I liked romance And he takes he takes off his robe, and this is where we get the I say iconic. I think in the Meme
group. This is a very very very popular screen screen cap of the skin folded at the back, and then when she goes to give him a cuddle, he's moved around to the front. Yes, she puts you fold that old sweaty blanket and put it in the in the closet. Homer returns to the doctor. He's like, do you want me to unstaple you with the
big staple? And he wants every other surgery you can offer so that he can look good, but please make sure it's an aortic valve replacement on the the film on the assurance, Yes, it tells him to count backwards from ten. Fine on drunk, goes to sleep, wakes up. Now we don't realize it's all a dream when he rocked up. I'm glad that was a dream because if he had to change his body that much would have gone.
This is a this is really really family guy whacky. Now. Yeah, how would you have felt if it would have been made a little more obvious that it was a dream? Um? I like the it being the dream. It's just we didn't get an ending though. That was the problem, because I didn't mind being god because it was more of a relief. Because I saw it, I was like, oh this is I was gonna start running. This is ridiculous. And then I realized the dream. I
thought, okay, well that's that's a relief. But still you didn't give us an out here. There's no ending. I mean, I would have liked it if he's, oh, we're undoing everything. It's like, can I keep the hair? Like just like no, and you rip it off And that's the I mean, I know that it's not to Dame, right, not sometimes saying not your Dame, well to Dame is the thing.
I think the American College is not to Dame, okay, and the church in Paris is Notre Dame, okay, because I've always said the hunchback of Notre Dame. That's what I've always said. That's and you're correct to do so okay. So I guess they wanted to do the parody of the hunchback of Notre Dame, right, But I don't think this episode needed it. You could have had Marge just see Homer's like, you know, upcoming surgery or something going. What is this? He goes, I'm trying to make
myself look good, homie. You don't need to do all that stuff. You know, you didn't need to have all this random shit because it just took up two minutes of up two minutes of the episode where you could have explained an ending for us. That's right. I agree with you. Because March in the dream, she has rewarded the one hundred dollars gift cup for sweatpants, etc. Homer arrives looking horrific. Quimby says, get to pitchforks, grab his Marge climbs notture Dame Springfield. He says, don't make me
cry when my tea ducks are anymore. She says, I'm getting myself a new husband. I'm upgrading he and she pushes him off the edge and he wakes up. I thought, oh okay. And then Marge says she made the doctor return him to normal. The nurse is kissing her cross cause she had to give a sponge bath. Lisa says, I hope you learned something here, Dad, and Hope says, yes, plastic surgery is mistaken to we've perfected it and everybody should get it. And that's sort of it.
We get Homer and Marge that, and I send them walking away and he asks, or what do you find it irresistible about me? She says, I still when I look at your still see the same adorable boy that I fell in love with originally. And then we get the artists flying around and they see the media and they prefer to go to the Benefit for the Undappreciated Artists or whatever, and they got to the cash bar rather than put it the media. And there's a media coming towards Earth, and I thought this
landing was not stuck. This is all incredibly random. This was a tailspin. How did I just I know I'm repeating myself listeners, but how do you not end bring back the status quoe with cools Coolsville was such a fun setup. I really enjoyed that first act. It was a lot of fun. Plus, if Milo has to sell up or sell out or whatever to comic book Guy, I think you've got some pretty fertile material for comic book Guy trying to keep Coolsville. Cools will but it gradually, over the course
of a few episodes just becomes the Android's dungeon again. Yeah, I don think it'd be a nice visual gag. I mean, I don't think it'd be too complicated. Or expensive to do. I think classic Simpsons they would have just somehow turned it back into the Androids dungeon again, but just bigger. Maybe. Yeah, I think that's not a bad idea. I was
just flabbergasted that we didn't get an end to this. But anyway, overall, I enjoyed the episode right, there was things you could have fixed, but to not have an ending just is a real black cloud for me. Yeah, I'm occasionally fine with episodes that you can rework or that while you're watching, going well, I would do this. I would do that. Sometimes they're fun, they're good thought experiments. I mean, I wasn't watching
this I feel completely insulted. I kind of did. When I read afterwards that Coulsville isn't canon and is never referenced again, I thought, hang on, that's all you did with Jack fucking Black, one of the biggest like Jack Black, that fucking Jack Black. There. I feel like if you said to Jack Black, hey, do you want to be your recurring character as Milo, the Caulsville owner, it's a sure absolutely all right? Bothered what do we learn? But what do you learn from the episode? Is
it? Davis? Do not get Alan Moore to sown your copy of Watchman Babies. No, do not do that. I learned that hot dog and a good hot dog until it's been plumped. Get that extra meat. It's time for some Guy Davis's new name Championship forward. Your names will be but before we do that need to be at the current leaderboard, which stands as this.
