I think it was a pretty mediocre episode and expected people here to flood the group with criticisms..given the trend lately. I'm quite surprised that many liked it.. The only thing I liked was the "Heywood Cuddleme" joke. That was classic bart. But other than that the whole thing was fragmented and dull.
How come you liked this ep??
I hated this ep. Had nothing to do with the simpsons. I give it an F. Almost as bad as 'The frying game".

The only things about I likes were the "tied to a bear" poster and the reference to OFF by the CBG.
I did't like it either, I too only found the OFF jokes and "Heywood Cuddleme" telegram funny. The KOTH refrence wasent bad either, but 3 decent jokes do not make up for an otherwise medicore episode
It was funny. Unlike last week's offering. This was, by far, the best episode in 2 years, since "Behind The Laughter".

It was definitely funny. It certainly was no classic, but I enjoyed it, as did many -- and possibly most -- others here.

Yeah - agreement here.
For a second, I was thinking they have called in Dale Gribble for the pest control job, so when they did the KOTH fence thing, I really appreciated it. I bet the people who didn't like this episode thought that wasn't a good gag.
"That's Lenny? I wanted the black one" - I thought that was funny too.
I think you had to have watched the entire "1900 House" series to truly appreciate this episode. Some of the gags in it weren't far off. Everyone WAS filthy, tired and hungry.

I watched about 3 minutes of 1900 House and gathered that "Everyone WAS filthy, tired and hungry."
Was there any more to it?

Better than "Trilogy of Error"?
Its too bad they had to ripoff "1900 House" for this episode. Couldn't they have come up with a more creative reality show for them to be on? Or better yet, don't make the episode horribly dated by having the family go on a reality show. ________________________________________________________________

The "reality show" fad has been going strong for a few years now, and the end still isn't in sight. It, like "The Simpsons" itself, is now well enough established to have earned a place in the annals of TV History.
They shouldn't have made the Simpsons so dated by having a boy with spiky hair! No one spikes their hair anymore! That's so late-80s!

Well duh, that was the entire premise of the show ...

It's a shame that a lot of people missed out on the spoof...this really wasn't a good choice of a show to ripoff...a LOT of people haven't heard of it.
bungleteen? i am intriuged as i have mr. bungle tatooed on my left arm.

Yeah...it's an inside joke me and my family have...a bungle is someone who packs a lot for vacation...long story...lol...but all of my family has bungle-something screen names/e-mail addresses...I'm curious as to know what Mr. Bungle is, though...
Well surely they could have come up with something that parodied "1900 House" a little better. How about "1600 House" or something? That would have been quite impossible to live in. ________________________________________________________________

I really didn't. The entire episode didn't seem to have a plot, but it seemed more like a bunch of jokes connected together that looked like a plot in the end.
