Post by: Gilgamesh on May 31, 2011, 06:25:24 PM
I got 17 out of 27 in 4 mins.

PS - Some here might doubt the claim that this is the "hardest" Simpsons quiz.

I can forgive Fox for being unfair and unbalanced.  I can forgive Fox for foisting upon us the likes of Palin and Beck.   I can forgive Fox for a lot of things.  But I could never forgive Fox for killing off Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie and Abe.

Bah. Mike Scully already took care of that over a decade ago.

Was listening to James L. Brooks on a Kevin Pollack's podcast.  Apparently the executives at Fox cannot stand the Simpsons.  The reasons is that, as part of the original deal Brooks made with them when he agreed to produce the show, Fox is not allowed to provide any creative comment (no 'notes'), which is probably unique in broadcast television (Louis CK has the same deal on cable).  Since the suits can only make budgetary comments, that's what they do (they even have apparently complained about the coffee budget)

And now everyone on the show is pissed. Here's hoping they go out in a South Park-esque blaze of glory.
