That is all.

The first segment of that episode (the whole cut-out affair, as well as Quagmire finding out there's porn all over the internet) was great.

Then they made fun of Jews for the rest of the episode, with Peter as the crux of it (meaning it was all incredibly annoying).

The Simpsons. In the past 5 years, they've been the masters of starting a plot (Kathy Ireland cardboard cut out) and dropping it after the first segment after they haphazardly tied it to the remainder of the plot. They're tapped out.

Yeah, what a strange way to segue from one subplot to the other.

I have a continuity question: Has Quagmire really never before mentioned Internet porn? Or are we not supposed to worry about continuity in the FG universe? Maybe last week they actually ended up in a different one of the multiverses, and it looked similar enough that they didn't notice right away, but we can't count on continuity with anything that happened before.

They did it last year w/ the "The Surfin' Bird" plot and dropped it to focus on the coming back of Jesus; a plot that aggravated me (Jesus) and tried to tie it back together w/ another "The Bird" reference closer.

I wondered that, too. Surely they've made a Quagmire Internet porn reference in the past.

Also, Stewie makes a joke about having to wade in a sea of hairy Jewish males, then makes the joke again, to which Chris asks him "Didn't you do that joke already yesterday?" (to paraphrase). Chris understands Stewie. They've rarely done that (usually non-core family- connected people can understand him). They're getting lazy and sloppy.

It is simply breathtaking to watch the glee and abandon with which the liberal media and the Angry Left have been attempting to turn our military victory in Iraq into a second Vietnam quagmire. Too bad for them, it's failing.

He asked Peter to email him the pic of Lois's poo when Peter showed them it on his cell phone at the bar. So he knows about computers.

No, on the Simpsons the first part isn't the plot, it leads up to the plot before the first segment ends. There's a difference.

There is?

Yes, it got annoying fast, but never rose to the level of "offensive".

After over a week, I still have not seen anything in this thread that explains the reference to Kathy Ireland in the subject line. Is it just a hook to entice people to read the thread? (Well, men of a certain age who grew up on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Editions, anyway.)

In the episode, Peter obtains a standup cutout of Ireland, which he obsesses on because he is insane. It eventually gets destroyed and he freaks out and buries it.

Ah. But it's probably not because he is insane, but rather because he is male.

Go on. You know you want to.
