That '90s Show

I admit this episode contradicted the Simpsons history, but come on, the show is set in a floating timeline, you don't seriously believe that Bart would still be 10 years old, when the show started in 1989?

OK, maybe the writers should have scrapped this idea, but in my opinion, the episode turned out pretty well. Their was some hilarious references and parodies (such as Homer's parody of 'Nirvana - Rape Me', with a song called 'Shave Me', which Weird Al parodied in the episode), the Back To The Future reference with Marvin Cobain, a parody of Marvin Berry.

This was criticized an awful lot by fans and critics alike, I am a passionate fan of The Simpsons, I have watched nearly every episode, and I can honestly say I enjoyed this episode, it wasn't great, but it was a lot of fun.

8/10.

This truly is the "Worst Episode Ever". If, in the end, we had found that Homer had been hit in the head with a brick, or had drunk some bad eggnog, and hallucinated this whole thing, all would be forgiven. Previous episodes have gone far off the reservation, and all have been redeemed by over-the-top, far fetched explanations (the "real" Principal Skinner being run out of town on a rail comes to mind). However, this apparent attempt to "update" the history of the family without, ultimately, returning us to the traditional timeline is unprecedented. Anyone who DOESN'T understand what a big deal this departure is cannot claim to be a true Simpsons fan. I believe The Simpsons was a on a rather short list of shows that had never Jumped the Shark. I fear that the streak has ended. Hopefully this does not signal a desire to "modernize" the show in a broader sense.

This episode was cute and funny for a satirical period piece but becomes the first in many a string of obnoxious canon disrupting timelines of the simpsons history so carefully curated over nearly 20 years. In my personal experience, I'm fine overlooking continuity errors such as the use of new technology despite no aging of the characters; but when flashbacks happen with Homer and Marge specifically, it's so frustrating for newer episodes to completely change what we know about their history rather than supplementing it with storylines that fit what we know and accept.

Still I love Homer and Marge love story episodes, but this is one I like to pretend doesn't exist canonically speaking

This episode is about Marge and Homer telling the kids about their life back in the 1990's, it also uses culture pop references for example Sonic The Hedgehog with Amy Rose which didn't debut until 1998, Marge in this episode was very unlikable because of her snobbish attitude towards Homer Simpson, it also tries to hard to make a homage to the 90's and of course the Tracey Ullman show, Marge's professor is even more worse than her because she encourages Marge to cheat on with Homer and not only that, it even destroyed the continuity from their movie and the 19th season from 2007-2008, it even uses the sign of jumping the shark, but at least Weird Al Yankovic's cameo was decent even though he also voiced Milo (Milo Murphy's Law) which i find him a better version Milo (Mars Needs Moms) aka the worst Disney movie from 2011 that killed Imagemovers Digital's sign with Disney after they were planning to make the Yellow Submarine Remake and of course the Roger Rabbit sequel, but no this episode is poorly written, lame, lousy and very cliché.

That '90's Show was a terrible episode. I'm halfway through Season 19, and this season has been lots of ups and downs. There are some really bad episodes, but then there are some really good episodes. For now. I would give Season 19 a 6.1 out of 10. Now, let talk about this episode. This episode shouldn't even exist. The past if Homer and Marge has been revealed in many other episodes. Basically in this episode the Simpsons are saying that Artie Ziff isn't a real person, that Homer never sang in the Be Sharps, and that Homer and Marge gone to college. In other episodes this is clearly proven wrong. I just don't understand why they even made this. This just lacks heart and comedy. The best part about it was obviously Weird Al. This isn't the worst Season 19 episode, but it is one of the worst. In all, I give this a 4.5 out of 10. It just barely rounds up to 5.
