They basically read "The Raven" in a stupid voice. Oh, yeah! Real funny!

It's a fine jest, Montressor!

non, vous etes un encule de merde

see metz, you verbose pompous poufiasse, somebody called me a treasure.

raven made fun of old english "quaff this kind nepenthe", something that slipped your mind because you seem to be focussed on the 'shakespearian' brand of comedy, which does not deviate from the classic definition of comedy, meaning no extraneous elements of humour, even if it means not laughing at all.

James Earl Jones's voice is not stupid. You must be thinking of Pee Wee Herman.

Okay! I used the wrong word! But even given that, anyone who saw that episode should have been able to figure out what I meant. I was referring to Homer reciting (not reading) Poe.
