A Tale Of Two Santas (Tales Of Futurama Patreon Exclusive)
Jan 09, 2026To celebrate the holidays, here's a Patreon Exclusive episode of Tales Of Futurama...for FREE!
It's the lost episode! Honestly, this wasn't the greatest Xmas episode we've seen. It's just a bit of a downer, which is the opposite of what we were looking for. Xmas eps are the safeground for warm-and-fuzzy cliches, this one went a different direction. A bold strategy, not sure it paid off for 'em.
Essentially, Robot Santa is frozen in ice, which leaves Bender to take the reigns as the new Santa. A fun twist on the old "Santa replacement" story...

The Devil Wears Nada (S21E05)
Nov 21, 2025Do you remember when Marge was a Playboy cover girl? It happened! And so did this episode, where she posed for a sexy calendar and got extra horny, unfortunately Homer's new job as Carl's assistant (who was promoted to supervisor), means he's unable to act on it. It then ends up with Marge considering sleeping with Flanders...yeah.
A lot of relatability here but also a lot that just felt unfinished or unnecessary. We also discuss sex games, kids complaining over nothing, our thoughts on Mountain Dew and more.

Marge In Chains
Aug 13, 2025Neither 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.

Four Great Women And A Manicure (S20E20)
Aug 07, 2025he 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. Here we put a spotlight on Queen Elizabeth I, Snow White, Lady Macbeth and...Howard Roark?

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.

Jun 26, 2025Lisa gets dosed up on "happy pills" whilst Bart falls in love with (again), this time with Jenny, aka Anne Hathaway, leaving Milhouse feeling abandoned. The result? A pretty sweet story that sees Bart finally show some appreciation to his poindexter best friend. If anything, the Lisa b-plot could have been a full-episode with some heavy themes. A winner by Season 20 standards.

Al Jean said the intention was to produce a love letter to Ireland and they succeeded. A really fun story that sees Homer and Abe buy an Irish pub and ignore the no-smoking laws.

No Loan Again, Naturally (S20E12)
May 01, 2025Not only is this episode's story a showcase for just how despicable The Simpsons have become, but it also features arguably the darkest and bleakest moment in the history of the show. Basically, Homer blows the family's savings and they lose their house, Flanders buys it and rents it back to them, but soon evicts them after they abuse his generousity.
Meanwhile, since it's Easter, we also discuss Guy's latest hot-cross-buns escapades, the Simpsons writers losing our trust and Dando's new pet...kinda.

There were many flurries of passion as we dove deep into what makes this episode so fantastic. Whether it's the spot-on guest cameos, the absurdity of Springfield's weather or deciding who was the villain in this scenario, there was so much to dissect.

Mar 12, 2025If you think Juliette was insane with her visions of Equalia, perhaps you should take a look at the writers for even conjuring this episode together in the first place. An absolute stinker that never seemed to know what it was, or even what it wanted to be, which is unfortunate because there were several interesting directions that could've been taken.

The Burns And The Bees (S20E08)
Mar 06, 2025CAUTION! This week's episode is filled with stingers AND zingers as we tackle 'The Burns and the Bees', an episode that kinda just feels, "there". Apparently the fate of the world's bees falls on Lisa's shoulders (well, her face) and nobody seems to care besides her. Meanwhile Mr. Burns looks to Marc Cuban on how a billionaire can have fun AND be rich. Meh.

Feb 13, 2025A pretty controversial theme for a Simpsons episode, even if it does feel like it came 5 years too late. Essentially, Bart befriends a muslim boy and Homer quickly assumes he and his family are terrorists. Meanwhile, Lisa becomes obsessed with Mapple products.
We also discuss becoming hackers, pointless calendars, buying new Simpsons PJs and more.

Homer And Lisa Exchange Cross Words (S20E06)
Feb 06, 2025It's another "Lisa angry at Homer" story where Lisa changes her last name to Bouvier, after he (successfully) bets against her in a crossword tournament when she admits she's likely to fail. Did he do anything wrong? Yes and no.
Meanwhile, there was a real wasted opportunity to focus on Gil being the smimy heel of the tournament. More evil Gil!
We also discuss the lacklustre break-up of Skinner and Mrs. K, why we tend to self sabotage, as well as which beloved character should be killed off. Enjoy!

We discuss whether Moe's actions were justified, the spot-on "Cheers" parodies (and not just the theme song), Catherine O'Hara's missed opportunity, Aerosmith's performance and more.

Miracle On Evergreen Terrace
Dec 24, 2024It's the holiday season here at FFD studios, so we've gone back and revisited this classic that sees Bart accidentally burn down the family Christmas tree and presents. There's lots to love (Brockman's news reports, Homer's parking hack, etc) however it also features Dando's LEAST favourite Simpsons moment of the golden era.
It's not the best Christmas "episode", that's saved for with "Marge Be Not Proud" or the pilot, however it's arguably the best Simpsons Christmas "special". Unfortunately Guy missed out on his cajun sausage this week, but need not worry since Nicola baked some Christmas trees for D...
Dangerous Curves (S20E05)
Dec 19, 2024Worst. Episode. Ever. Well, worst episode so far at least. Just an absolute head-scratcher that leaves you disliking pretty much every character that appears.
Basically, Homer and Marge find out that they both came close to cheating on each other five years. Yep. Apparently "marriage in crisis" is the only story that the writers know what to do with flashbacks these days.
If it's rants you're after, you've come to the right place.

Treehouse Of Horror XIX (S20E04)
Dec 12, 2024A pretty solid Halloween special that parodies Transformers, Mad Men and Peanuts! A nice blend of sci-fi and gore in the first two segments, however the tribute to "It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" was top notch.

Double, Double, Boy In Trouble (S20E03)
Dec 04, 2024The Simpsons present their rendition of 'The Prince and the Pauper' here as Bart switches places with a rich kid he meets at a party. There's a truly great story hiding here somewhere, instead it seems the writers were more interested in continuing on the never-ending saga of Homer being a jerk for absolutely no reason. If there's one this episode does well, it's highlighting just how good a "tuck-in" is.

Lost Verizon (S20E02)
Nov 28, 2024Bart gets a cell phone. That is all. Well, not exactly, although it kinda felt that way when watching since as Guy likes to say, "it's just a bunch of stuff happening". The annoying part is that there's a really solid story to be told here, however the writers seem more interested in getting the Simpsons to visit Machu Picchu for 3 minutes. At least we got Dennis Leary.

Much Apu About Nothing
Nov 21, 2024It's incredible (and sad) how an episode that aired almost 30 years ago can still be just as relevant today, as it was back then. Regardless, here we are with our revisit of "Much Apu About Nothing", an episode that is in our opinion, the gold standard of "Apu" stories.

On top of that, Marge becomes an erotic baker which leads to one of Dando's favourite gags in a while.

All About Lisa (S19E20)
Oct 31, 2024Lisa becomes Krusty's assistant, which leads to her becoming famous. Now don't be confused, this may seem like a copy of "Bart Gets Famous", however it's actually a really fun homage to the classic film, "All About Eve". What was even more impressive was that we both loved the way Sideshow Mel was handled too! Added great depth to his character and gave a better understanding as to why he continues to put up with a gig he seemingly hates. Overall, a good season finale!

The ending felt a little whacky, however for the msot part a nice story.

This was actually a lovely sequel to "Colonel Homer", with Marge helping Lurleen realise that SHE is in control of her own success, not the men in her life.

Love, Springfieldian Style (S19E12)
Aug 15, 2024This podcast is BOLLOCKS! Well, maybe not the podcast, however the episode we reviewed certainly is. Dando sums it up as "inoffensive, yet forgettable", which is about all there is to say.
Honestly there were a few funny gags throughout (including a Disney reference that's certainly NOT aged well) but for the most part it's just another "Simpsons retell a story" trilogy.
On top of the review we also discuss Guy launching a "yawning" OnlyFans, our love of Clancy and Sarah Wiggum's relationship and more.

That 90s Show (S19E11)
Aug 07, 2024It's the one everyone hates apparently, although we're not too sure why, 'cause we loved it. A really fun throwback to the 90s which although at times felt a little on the nose, was actually an enjoyable teen-comedy-style story that felt straight out of 1997.
Plus, the Sadgasm songs were also actually pretty great? As a big Nirvana fan, Dando in particular got a real kick out of the references to Cobain's story.

E Pluribus Wiggum (S19E10)
Aug 01, 2024Let's not sugarcoat things, this episode was a disaster. A nonsensical politically-charged story that feels extremely dated in 2024, along with one of the most confusing "endings" (if you can call it that) of all time.
Apparently Ralph has been disguising his intelligence for 15 years since "I Love Lisa", as he now plans to run for president and make American great again. Absolutely bizarre.

Jun 27, 2024Jack Black is on The Simpsons! Yes, THE Jack Black! However, apparently it was more important to forget all about that and give us another Homer/Marge "marriage in crisis" type story.
When a new comic book store opens across the road, The Android's Dungeon goes out of business. Marge then turns the location into a successful gym for women. Neither of these stories get resolved.
We can only assume Marge is now forever a successful business woman and Comic Book Guy has been replaced by Jack Black's character, Milo. No? It's just back to normal...
