This guy?

Why the hell is this show still on the air? It should have ended 10 years ago.

The Simpsons was epic in its glory days.  Ran it's course.

[Glen]

It still cranks out some good shows, but yeah...I love it and I won't mind when it goes.  It's like a cool uncle that comes to visit for a week and ends up living on your couch.

It was great when Conan was a writer.

[Tank]

Can't remember the last time I watched an episode. Used to be very clever back in its infancy.

[arch stanton]

About five years ago they killed off Viewer Arch.

It probably won't be Smithers now that we know what a good tube of foot cream can do.

First 9 or 10 years was great. Coincidentally, when Phil Hartman died, it seemed the show started going down hill.

ha. i've always thought the same. and another thing is they haven't had a good song in the past 15 years.

The Nuclear plant should explode, and Homer is left to rebuild the city.  Then all the characters can come back slowly.

they can use santa's little helper as a rescue dog to search through the rubble.

Citizen: stop! 

 

There are two possible scenarios that I see here and I'd like some clarification before issuing a citation.

 

1) You know how to properly use "its" but managed to make a ridiculous mistake that even the most inept kindergartner would certainly avoid.

 

2) You have no clue how to use "its" correctly and stumbled your clumsy way into using the word appropriately in your first sentence.

 

Have you managed to shake your own hand recently? I have looked at your record and in it there are notes that indicate that your handshake brings bad things upon its recipient.

 

What the hell is going on here?

Using the same demonstrative pronoun in such close proximity is ill advised.

 

But what the hell do I know? I created a thread the other day containing the phrase "should of."

 

Shame on me.

There are only 3 options that qualify, according to the clues given out:

 

Edna Krabappel

Apu Nahasapeemapetilon

Sideshow Bob

 

Of those, I'd rank the likelyhood of each character as follows:

 

1. Sideshow Bob

2. Edna Krabappel

3. Apu Nahasapeemapetilon

Shame on me as well. I think that if I had to plead my case in front of EnglishChief, I might be able to get by on a technicality as it's more clunky than anything else. Incidentally, I'm one of the few persons on the force that is a fan of the split infinitive.

 

With all of that said, I'd like to invite you to try out for the force. You seem to have just the right amount of nitpickiness (that's now a word) to thrive here. You can start out in the Face Value Ticket Exchange and work your way up from there.

Where does it give a clue? All it says is the Edna Krabapple was not the character they had planned to kill off. Maybe I'm missing it. 

 

RIP Marcia.

I imagine the first two go are any voiced by Marsha Wallace.

Rumors swirling that it is Apu.
