Season 14 has been FUNNY, but it hasn't been HUMOROUS.

Discuss.

Which is naughtier? Poot Rootbeer or MrPSB? Umm.....

I saw the episode where they go on that 1800s reality show, I didn't laugh once. Do you mean by what you said that the season is, as Ralph Wiggum puts it, funny but not haha funny?

Would you agree with the statement that the writers' approach this season tends to be "string a bunch of jokes together until we have 23 minutes' worth of stuff" moreso than "start with a firm story arc and see where we can fit jokes into it"?

Their aim seems to be (and has been for a while) to make the end of an episode as far away from the beginning as possible, through many bizarre events, plot-twists, etc. It must be tough thinking of decent storylines after so many years, and as for the jokes, many of them COULD be funny but the writers spoil them... comedy is very brittle.

That ep was one of the best from this year

yes

That was one of the best episodes this year. You must've meant "Large Marge", the universal choice as worst epsode of season 14.

Outside of Curb Your Enthusiasm, which is great but has had it's own stinkers lately as well, it's the funniest show on TV. After those two I can't think of anything else that makes me laugh....that's meant to.

Was Treehouse of Horror 13 from season 14? It was on here yesterday..... Lou's comment about having to hand in his gun cracked me up......
