Review of "The Cartridge Family"

[Nathan Mulac DeHoff]

The first few scenes were hilarious, and provided the kind of
nearly non-stop laughter that I've come to expect from the show. The
soccer scene was great, as were the parts in the gun store. Oh, and then
there was that comment about the King of England. The ending, however,
seemed pointless. Also, Homer was in stupid mode throughout the entire
episode, which I, personally, did not mind all that much, but I'm sure
I'll read plenty of complaints about it. I'll be pretty generous
with the grade, since it was a very funny episode. Grade: A-

DYN:
...the "blowjob" line wasn't used? (Wow, big surprise there.)

Previous Episode References:
[7F24] Homer in a mental institution
[9F14] Homer's alcohol problems
[8F23] A Simpson becomes a member of the NRA
[3F09] Homer beating up Bush
[2F16], [2F20], [4F17] Maggie shooting Burns referenced

Continuity Goofs:
Okay. Here's the big one. Homer has owned a gun in several earlier
episodes. Remember the Boogieman scene? This episode made it seem as if
he had never even handled one.

Marge handled a gun when she was a police officer, so why would a simple
handgun have impressed her at the end of this episode?

It was the best episode ever.
