The B-plot with Milhouse and Lisa also felt like rehashing old territory. Worse yet, it was also guilty of rehashing an old cliched sitcom plot device of "I don't love, but now you're dating someone else, so now I do." I liked this a lot better when it was Meg and Neil on Family Guy.
Thumbs down for The Simpsons this week.

I did like how Homer and Marge got Homer out of the haircutting business. And the "Killer" sign next to Moe. Then again, I generally love anything involving Moe on the show. | Big G
