Neither of us were wearing a tie at all when we recorded this week's review of "Marge In Chains", an episode filled with laughs but never seems to know what it wants to be. As a parent, Marge's accidental theft due to sheer exhausion is VERY relatable, plus the Osaka flu outbreak took us back to the Covid days. Throw in some top-class work from Phil Hartman and you've got yourself a winner.If you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1 per month at patreon.com/fourfingerdiscountL...

he first "Mother's Day" episode, designed to celebrate women, although at times it felt a bit like the opposite. Honestly, we're never big fans of these anthology episodes and besides a few fun gags, this one was no different.

It's time to dish up some cold shoulder because this week we revisit the one where Homer is actually a good father...for the most part. Oh and Marge finds a sauna. There's actually three solid stories in here, however none of them are fleshed out to their fullest extent, so we do the heavy lifting and work out a case for each to be an entire episode.We also discuss anti-social eating habits, carny scams, the benefit of emoticons and more.If you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little...
