Treehouse of Horror...

for the first time ever.... i wish that the simpsons was over.

it better be an all itchy and scratchy treehouse of horror next time out.

cheers! Doc

It was a pretty weak effort, for sure. I only liked 'The Ned Zone', and it wasn't great by any means.

Worst Treehouse Ever.

Sadly I have to agree with you. They could have/should have done a lot more with the Ned Zone. Also, that opening, with Kang and Kodos, was strange.

yeh, that was real bad... The first one, with the Flanders/Dead Zone thing was the best of them...but the 2nd (only Bart, Lisa and Homer have British accents?) was horrible.

The third, although a better premise than 2nd, was also lacking. Although, I liked Marge in the tattered clothes...

Yes, this one sucked more than the suckiest suck, from lame beginning to unfunny end.

Being in Australia, I have yet to see it, but I must say that I don't really like ANY of the Treehouse episodes that much anyway....

Is it the form, or the content that you dislike?

I think the content can vary, but I like the chance to see the characters in other settings. So I rather like the Treehouses, and the episode of tv pilots, and the annual (or maybe it's just so often) episode in the spring where they do bible stories or talltales or whatever.

Yeah I dunno.....I think I just get sick of "yet another Treehouse Episode" with more Halloween stories. Halloween isn't really a big deal here in Australia. It's starting to be in recent years, but it's nothing like it is in the US. Actually, this year I had the first ever trick-or-treaters i'd ever seen! I never went rick or treating as a kid. It just wasn't done here.....

WTF? That's the first time I've read anything like that.

'Hungry are the Damned' 'The Shinning' 'Nightmare Cafeteria' etc.

Hard to believe. I've set my face to stunned.

out.

really

Oh don't get me wrong - the earlier ones were OK - I just got sick of them around season 5/6. With the exception of Homer3 (3d) and the one where the Lard Lad comes to life ("He came to life.....good for him!"). Yeah I can think of ones i *do* like....

Best THOH segment ever, despite the 1995ish computer graphics now appearing very dated.

Did anyone see that movie "Tron"?

No.

Yes. Now all we need is electricity...

Yes, but given this is a show about The Simpsons, does the internet run backwards down there compared to here in the northern hemisphere?

backwards down there compared to here in the northern hemisphere?

Sometimes it certainly feels like it...

I was hesitant to post that, I didn't want to insult Australians.

That's okay - we're (well most of us) not easily insulted :-) As long as it's a bit of fun and not genuinely malicious.
