The Simpsons: Clan of the Cave Mom (2024)
Continually impressed!
This new season has had me looking forward to new episodes! Each episode has felt much more intimate and grounded in theming. This one, with the Primal style interludes and the themes of parental protectiveness is especially interesting. The simpsons should focus on the human elements, which is where it thrives. Its not a mean spirited adult animation, however hard it tries to be sometimes. The writing is coming into its own in bring the show into the modern world. Visual gags are becoming stronger, especially the sign gags and general Homer aloofness. Marge is taking a front seat this season, but her character is being written well and its very welcome.
The Simpsons: My Life as a Vlog (2023)
not bad not good
Cool idea but fails in the execution. A non linear storyline told through online content is not exactly revolutionary but definitely an interesting concept for a season 34 episode. The podcast bit was highly enjoyable and got a few chuckles out of me, but it seems more like a fever dream than a simpsons episode. Almost felt like a treehouse of horror segment. Not the best episode of the season but fine a filler. If your'e looking for an episode where the simpsons family and company are all online influencers (specifically youtube, no tik tok or instagram references here), then here you go . Shoutout the lenny and carl experience.
