    Is it over yet?

    This episode was full of so many annoying characters, mainly an infuriating weirdo from Jersey who for some reason had an unhealthy and unexplained obsession with Homer

    I couldn't wait for this boring and annoying episode to finish

    Just couldn't wait for this to be over

    11 minutes in, I had had enough. Dated and out of touch millennial references, an inane go nowhere storyline. I just can't say it wasn't funny any other way.

    Sadly but it doesn't give me any good feeling as I was a child.

    One of the best episodes in years!

    I have to admit, I don't have high expectations from the Simpsons anymore - but this episode really surprised me. It was at once ridiculously funny and heartwarming.

    Guest star Michael Rapaport is simply brilliant, lighting up every scene. His takedown of Bart is a moment for the ages.

    It's nice to see Homer getting some appreciation after a long time, in fact this level of adoration for the character is something we haven't seen before and it's really intriguing. I really felt we got to see something new in this episode, new aspects of several characters that were surprising but believable.

    The Simpsons are back!

    Nice one

    Just like last week, the Simpsons nailed it with a very neat plot line and a very strong performance by a cameo guest star. This season looks like a big improvement from last season.
