The Simpsons (TV Series) Top Goon (2022) User Reviews

it felt like old Simpsons, but... better!

Heartwarming story of a side character that was mostly miserable and unambitious during many seasons. I love seeing Moe in a parent role, it suits him well. He opens up from a caring and loving side where he start to caring for Nelson's decisions and purpose.

The side story of Homer and Bart relationship takes twist when father realizes he does not need to attend any seasonal school activities, however life plays a joke on him.....And now Homer has to spend his Saturdays driving 3 hours till closest physical therapy facility.

It has been awhile since episode of Simpsons gave me so much joy. <3.

Incohesive line of jokes with a barely notable story.

I grew up watching The Simpsons in the early 2000s and to say that the quality has dropped would be an understatement. This episode follows a side tangent story of Moe wanting to win a hockey game by employing Nelson as a "goon". And is completely lacking what used to be the classic AB plotline that's original Simpsons had instead swapped with fast paced jokes that are very forced and not set up to have any cohesion between one scene to the other. It actively recycles old characters that have been no more than background characters for the entirety of the series in order to not overuse the shrinking cast that they already have. How this episode has the rating that it does at the current point is honestly baffling to me it is boring unfunny and uses old jokes that would be not out of place in a comedy sketch written for children under the age of 10. The Simpsons has been known for being controversial but nowadays I can say that this is one of the most PC TV shows you you can watch on your Disney Plus account. Honestly I wish I would have spent my time more wisely and stared at a blank wall at least at that point I could have thought of a funnier joke.
