2024-10-29 17:42:06 +0000 UTCOh man, next month is going to be so bad it’ll be great! I’ve seen all three and it kind of says something when Waterworld is, imo, the best of the three.

2024-10-29 16:59:50 +0000 UTCI’m sure I saw most of these when they aired, but VI is the one I vividly remember seeing over at a friend’s house, Homer Cubed especially.

2024-10-28 21:49:46 +0000 UTCWe talk about some later shorts at the very end, but all the main discussion is contained to Treehouses I-VI (the ones from seasons 2 through 7).
