Soooooooooooo unfunny, Mat Groening. Her character (as Homer's mom, Mother Simpson) has ALWAYS been a selfish cunt. And they KEEP writing her storylines that allow her return.
Even now that she's "dead" and been "cremated", she could STILL unfortunately return to further torture her son emotionally.

According to the Wikipedia entry on this episode, it place 3rd in the night and brought the show its lowest ratings ever. If the voice-over artists on the show feel like they're stuck in the ratrace 'til the Fox Networks cans the show so they can be unchained, keep doing Glenn Close episodes. Git 'er done!

One of these days people will stop trying to tie ratings (popularity) with quality. One of these days.....

That'll be the day when people stop posting articles from elsewhere, including things about ratings, instead of actually posting their own words.
After all, those people are actually saying quantity is better than quality, so they post filler to the newsgroups.

She's not supposed to be funny - she's supposed to be the "hey, look, the conservative movement was bad in the 1960s just as it is bad today, but fortunately there are people out there willing to put a stop to it" character. Lisa can't do it all by herself...

The "Glenn Close" discussion topic is moving up the list.
We seem to discuss her and how she ruins the show every few months.
Pretty soon she will be up there with "Baker Street" and "Smithers is black, and one time, he was gay".
I will now add the same comment I contributed the last time we discussed this (which wasn't too long ago).
"She looked hot in that nude scene in that movie about The Big Chill, but I can't seem to remember the name of the movie."

That same night, they also reran the episode of 'Family Guy' where Brian finds out he has a 13-year-old son (Dylan). At the end of the episode, they _still_ muted the name Tim Russert. I can understand the FIRST time (he had died 9 days earlier), but now? Are they going to deny us when that episode hits syndication/cable? I thought it's a pretty funny joke and Tim would approve.
