If Bill and Ted did Shakespeare, I'd probably have given it a chance. It'd at least be better than reading the originals, right? Ok, so it's a close call.
They are probably still online somewhere, they briefly brought The Critic back and he made some Internet Only episodes. They only made like 3-4 of them. This was before Youtube was invented, around the year 2000 or 2001 if my memory serves.
this was the best of all comedian shows. it totally trumped "life with louie" and "bobby's world." would be nice to see new episodes someday but maybe jon is tapped out.
@Pentazoid111 Well, Dudley Moore is already dead, so I guess that makes his part irrelevant. He was a good actor though, especially in the Wrong Box. RIP
Well, I meant people in the far off future are not going to get some of the jokes because most of the jokes are about 90's culture and whereas some shows will have jokes that people in every time period will laugh at.
Okay.. everyone I need your help. At 1:23.. when the pages start flipping faster and faster. Does the pattern of the words on the sheet spell anything? It's hard to tell if the animators slipped something in there or not.. I swear it looks like it starts spelling out something. HELP!
Matt Groening (like you don't know who he is) hated this show for being so much better than his yellow-bellied attempt at entertainment, so he saw to it that FOX took it from ABC in season 2 where it quickly got canned.
(Like anything FOX has of actual value.)
And to make sure ABC never had an original thought again, they sent Disney over to grab it up in 1998.
The critic was created, produced, and sometimes written by writers and producers from the simpsons. That's one of the reasons why it was so good, because when it came out the Simpsons was in it's prime and was one of the most intellegent and funny shows ever made. Sure the simpsons is terrible now, but the only reason Matt Groening hated this show was because it interfered with the simpsons too much, not because he was jealous. Even one episdoe had Jay Sherman guest star, he wasn't too happy.
The ironic part about the episode with Jay was that it gave us some REALLY classic Simpsons moments, iike, "I was saying Boourns." and "Get me his mexican non-union equivalent!"
@Rachman1337 terribles far too hard a word for it now. There's still great episodes. People like to say that because they like living in the past a little bit :) , I understand the place though
Have you seen some of the programming on Reelz? They have a review show based on trailers! How is it possible to review a film based on a trailer? I would complain or do something about it but you can't get any blinder than poking both eyes out. "It stinks!" Ha! Anyway, I do tune in for my daily dose of Jay. Jon Lovitz. rocks!
"If the movie used to be a TV show, just don't go."
Does that mean I shouldn't have seen The Simpsons Movie? I admit, it wasn't all it was hyped up to be, but I still kind of liked it. I wasn't even offended when Homer says "Everyone in the theater's a giant sucker... especially, YOU!" which is almost the same as what Jay Sherman just said.
Or maybe I just liked The Simpsons too much to not want to see it.
I know the same actor for Brain did the Orson Wells here, but I don't hear Bobby in Jay's son, plus the person who does his voice isn't in the credits. So it must not be him(or should I say her) :p
My god this is ahead of it's time. If only people listened and really did stop going to remakes and terrible movies. Filmmakers would have to resort to making normal films again. Films about normal people and everyday situations. Its up to you people. BTW I am not trying to be funny, its the way i really feel
