The Simpsons: The Musk Who Fell to Earth (2015)
Season 26, Episode 12
1/10
A(nother) new low
26 January 2015
We all have Lisa Goes Gaga in our minds, and thus are all fully aware of what level of crappiness this show is capable of. Or are we? This episode goes to the wrong tracks right from the get go. We see a random scene with The Simpsons chasing an eagle (I don't know why), filled with the usual, horribly paced boring cartoon slapstick. Then we get to the plot, oh wait, what plot? There isn't a plot, this is just 20 minutes of Elon Musk -related jokes and pure ass-kissing of Musk with The Simpsons worshiping him. Exactly like in Lisa Goes Gaga. Even some emotional depth is tried to be included, but remains an unsuccessful try. Again.

What is with The Simpsons and celebrity guest voices that doesn't work? Why are they dedicating full episodes for guests who, by the way, don't know how to voice act? The institution known as The Simpsons has reached the point where it's not only a disgrace for its own fans, but a disgrace for the whole world of television. What used to be a groundbreaking animated comedy is now merely a playground for different celebrities to practice voice acting.

My loyalty as a Simpsons fan has been questioned before, but episodes such as Moe Goes from Rags to Riches or A Midsummer Nice Dream seem fairly good after this.

It's time to wash your face and die with dignity, The Simpsons.

Secret Lives (1999– )
1/10
TV show my ass
6 February 2014
A desperate attempt to milk money out of stupid viewers who are slaved by TV and have never heard of anything like Netflix where they could watch some real stuff. In this show lazy writing, cliché soap opera plot twists and horribly untalented actors are too visible. Everything sucks from start to beginning, from the language characters use to cheap background music. This suffers from ultimately low budget, although no amount of money could save it, the concept is just doomed.

In conclusion, if you want to suffer half hours and throw objects to your TV screen, this is what you want to watch.

And this airs in prime time. Great job Finland, you did it again.
