Worst Episode Ever #3: The Reverse-Future

S19E11 – That 90’s Show

Load up on guns and bring your friends to “That 90’s Show” in the third installment of “Worst Episode Ever.” Yes, Dan and Jack watch the infamous season 19 episode that changes the romantic history of Marge and Homer by adding in a bunch of 90s references. We discuss our shared love of lazer tag, wax poetic about when Semisonic was a thing, and debate the universal timelessness of “Weird Al” Yankovic. Take a startling look into the “reverse-future” of The Simpsons, without a single horse plot unlike previous episodes of “W.E.E.” Why was this a Christmas episode, kind of? Did Pauly Shore get mentioned in an episode about the 90s? Do you want us to record podcasts about “Saved by the Bell” and “A Pup Named Scooby Doo?” Check it out, and see if you think “That 90’s Show” should unseat “Saddlesore Galactica” on our master list of the worst Simpsons episodes ever.

  1. Great Job again guys. I remember this episode making me angrier than a yak in heat when it first came out. The Weird Al part is the only thing that really sticks with me. Was this the episode where comic book guys says something about why Lord of the Rings is unfilmable?

    • Pat, with two comments, you are definitely our biggest fan so far. Thank you! We really appreciate it and I’m glad you’re liking the show.

      Yeah, the LOTR line from Comic Book Guy is in there. One of the not terrible 90s lines (but still, kinda eh), though really, this episode is all about that Weird Al song. I can now only sing it as “Brain Freeze”. We recorded this one a few weeks ago now, and it was the only part that really stuck with me.

  2. Montgomery burns said it best in describing this podcast… EXCELLENT!
    I just came across your podcast last night while searching for new ones. This is without a doubt the best Simpsons podcast there is. I listened to the 3 episodes available so far and you guys are right on the mark. Looking forward to more.
    I suggest (or dare) you to watch “Lisa Goes Gaga”. The absolute worst episode ever, I don’t get why they didn’t burn this after it was made, but they decided to air it instead. After a few years of not watching new episodes, I thought I’d see how it was and watched a new show one Sunday night a few years back. It was the Lady Gaga one. Haven’t watched a single new episode since.

    Thanks for the shows.
