'The Simpsons' - 'The Color Yellow' Recap

White People Like Coco O'Brien

Are you a fan of Conan O'Brien? Were you so incensed at NBC's treatment of him that you considered launching some kind of letter writing campaign that, at best, could cripple NBC's mailroom department and force them to take a half day? Chances are yo

Morgan Spurlock on the Simpsons 20th anniversary documentary

I've been holding this interview for almost six months, but I think it was worth it. When I was in Pasadena last summer for the TCA press tour (whose winter edition I'll be leaving for on Friday morning... eep!), I spoke to Morgan Spurlock about the

All Danny wants for Festivus

I love Christmas. It is the best holiday. If all of the holidays grew asses, Christmas could kick every other holiday's ass by ripping off their ass and beating them to death with said ass. It's perfect on every conceivable level. It aims to achieve

The Vatican loves The Simpsons

Who would have thought that the Pope and I could have been switched at birth, assuming I was born in some kind of time riff? It could happen. The Vatican's newspaper, L'Osservatore Romano, offered its congratulations to The Simpsons for reaching its
