Re: The Simpsons
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Re: The Simpsons
According the Simpsons wiki, the character has shown up a total of three times (including the one where he dies). Clearly, a tough creative decision was made.Sparky wrote: ↑24 Dec 2024, 11:53amMe either, had to Google to find out which character he was.matedog wrote: ↑24 Dec 2024, 11:26amYeah, never even heard of him.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑24 Dec 2024, 7:12amOh no, not … Fausto?

Re: The Simpsons
This is quietly one of the most despairing and cutting lines they've ever had a character say.

One of those little touches that Simpsons used to do so well, the archaic term "fourth form" to describe an elementary school student and show how ancient Burns is.
