This actually sounds more grounded and similar to earlier seasons. Hope it's good.

 

[Krissy67]

Yay NASCAR. -_-

 

[Kintaro]

The exciting sport of watching cars turn left!

 

[SakruaWolf]

Last week, the 8:00 Simpsons was on at 9:30, the rest of the block was skipped, and NASCAR picked right back up after the news, so hopefully we'll get at least this episode a little later in the night if anything.

 

[Paint Guru]

If it's not baseball it's football. And if it's not football its Nascar.

FOX, I'm happy for ya that your able to broadcast all this stuff but damn if it isn't annoying how the one night of broadcast TV I look forward to weekly is either pre-empted or not shown entirely.

 

[JT3]

I take it someone screwed up the time or something? (Seriously, can NASCAR end already?)

 

[StunnaBaybeeh]

Whew. It's good to know everyone sees nothing but NASCAR.

I'm pretty peeved over this.

 

[Snowboarding = My LIFE]

maybe it will be on at 8:30

 

[Hawra]

Thank you FOX. I get to see the last 2 laps of a race in a sport that I couldn't care less about.

 

[Kunmui]

Thankfully there's no American Dad tonight so we don't have to worry about missing an episode of that due to the late start.

 

[alexsr31092]

Well, cute couch gag.

EDIT: A pointless character death (even if it was Moleman it was uncomfortable), a stupid Ralph line, a very sad Nelson "HA HA" and a very jerk-ass Homer.

Dotcha just love The Simpsons these days? I know I do.

Here are some of the credits for tonight's episode:

Writer: Joel H. Cohen

Director: Matthew Nastuk

All right, I'll concede that Bart's Skinner prank was actually executed well, despite how unoriginal it was (didn't Freleng do that twice?) Chalmers' act break line was funny though.

 

[bon apetite]

I thought he just laughed "See-Saw!"

 

[Yeah Me:)]

Oh, Moleman can never die. The universe would never let him off that easy.

 

[Kristin H]

Yeah, he did. I like how the loaner car is basically an amalgamation of all the new car styles.

 

[LoLs]

I liked the animation during the "controlling Skinner's shoes" gag, though the gag itself has been used decades before in the LT short "Bugsy and Mugsy", among others, I imagine.

Something occurred to me when Skinner demanded to know who pulled the prank: Shearer's voice just doesn't have the impact it used to. Remember the end of act one for "Whacking Day"? Skinner was pretty intimidating when he said Bart was expelled. I just didn't feel the same thing here.

 

[flyboy305]

So, Bart alluva sudden is the Marlo Stanfield of Springfield Elementary.

Brilliant.

 

[noisy]

"Do you do it with relish?"
"No I'm kind of embarrassed about it."

First big laugh of the episode for me.

And Speedy, of course Skinner's voice sounded different way back when. That was back when everyone involved with the show actually, you know, cared about what they were doing?
