Seen this yesterday, it's perfect and it's about time. Can't wait for the episode to air. I don't understand why some people are actually bitching about this...

I'm more interested in the Futurama crossover, which also should have been done 10 years ago.

I'll admit, the joke with Cleaveland and Bob actually made me laugh out loud. This should be pretty good.

The clip was pretty funny, however it seems so out of place for the Simpsons, at least classic Simpsons. Unless this is a Halloween episode this just seems like the plot of something out of the Simpson Comics which had fun but wackier plots. I don't like the idea of this crossover, it just doesn't fit the Simpsons universe, The Critic crossover actually worked pretty well but here we have the crazy FG universe just crossover instead of adapting it to the Simpsons universe, Herman had yellow skin...It just seems something out of the internet or the comics. I guess they've done it all so why not is probably what they thought. The previous cameo with Peter as a clone of homer in the Halloween episode worked well, that was a good cameo.

Meh, I don't care about Family Guy any more, did you read the spoilers they have for the up coming episodes? Seth's destroying the only cool character left on the show. Why Seth? Oh, why?

Do I think The Simpsons are any better? Meh, by an inch. The only subplot I'll probably fun is Chris being with Maggie, that should get a few good jokes.

Thats so cool, I love both shows. Its awesome seeing the Simpsons crossover and such. They are so iconic. The Lego episode last season was great.

Laughed at the following

-"Springfield eh? What state?", "I can't imagine we're allowed to say"
-"Don't drink the water, everyone looks like they have heppititus"
-"Hey Moe, your sister's being raped"
-The truth behind Partucker beer
-Aerial dogfight (just for the Cleveland spot)

I seem to be leaning more on the deconstruction gags that are an FG specialty...maybe it's just the trailer seeming a bit one-sided.

Did'nt get into the Peter/Homer fight (though liked Ralph's cameo)

This looks good. Not sure if I'll be able to see it though due to The Amazing Race. Might have to skip an episode to see it though. I did that before, so I can do it again.

This. Simpsons should have aired its last season years ago and Family Guy became stale very quickly.

Agreed, it's a bummer the Futurama crossover is only 22 mins and the Family guy X is 45.

The episode was actually better than I thought. It was still hit and miss with me.
I love the fact Mole Man stole the damn car, I was banking on Snake or Mafia member.
The car wash scene was great.
Also the Airplane fight
And last but not least the Homer vs Peter fight was great especially when they got the nuclear powers

:lol:

I am looking forward to the Futurama and Simpsons cross-over. Bender FTW!!!!!

Outside of them acknowledging how much they've ripped off The Simpsons, I thought everything related to the crossover was pretty terrible.

Peter's comic was pretty damn funny though.

This was a great episode...of Family Guy I guess youd say. Its under FG anyway.

Stewie capturing Sideshow Bob was so cool. Only he could do it huh? :lol: and Meg just had to be good at the saxophone. The one thing.

It was a bit weird seeing the Simpsons getting a little darker with the violence and such.

I thought this crossover was very well done, The Peter vs. Homer fight was epic, and Stewie was as diabolical as ever by capturing Nelson and some of Bart's other enemies (besides Apu though I liked Stewie's excuse for it) I'd say my only nitpick was that Stewie didn't really interact with Maggie. I really thought there'd be something with that, and I was a bit disappointed since Brian interacted with Santa's Little Helper. I was hoping Chris would interact with Bart while Stewie would interact a bit with Maggie. However, despite that small nitpick, I enjoyed the crossover for what it was and thought they did well with it. The end scene with Stewie writing on the chalkboard and crying was just adorable. Poor guy!

I didn't have high expectations but I was pumped either way cause it was just so epic, but it blew me away. it was amazing. Loved every second of it. Laughed my A$$ off the whole time

My main complaint or problem I have with the cross-over is the fact it had little to no centralized plot or story. Peter and the gang lose their car only to find out Mole Man took it half through the episode.

BubblyShell22
09-30-2014, 04:32 PM
But it did have a plot in that they had to find out who took the car. I still can't get over that car wash scene. That was the best!

Maybe it was the fact that I didn't get my hopes up high for this crossover but I actually enjoyed it :D

Had a lot of funny moments, Brian / Santa's Little Helper plot was pretty funny, talking walking dog with regular acting dog was a lot of fun :lol:

Bart / Stewie plot was another fun plot, I want a crossover 2 with The Simpsons in the Family Guy area. Bart can go on another adventure with Stewie only it'd likely be more dark and sinister in that show than it was in The Simpsons :lol:

Meg / Lisa plot was ok, I liked how Lisa gave Meg a gift and a hug at the end, kind of gave me an awe feeling. Poor Meg, shows how much of a difference the fathers are when you compare gifts they get :(

It was odd seeing Chris with Brian, I'm used to seeing with Stewie or Peter only. The interactions was fun though.

Over all pretty good, I hope this isn't a one time thing, I'd like a sequel :D

Edit;

Forgot to say, they had a disturbing scene...Homer and Peter car wash scene, Oh gosh they should have not added that scene in, the horror that was :(

"I think I speak for all of us when I say, I'm over The Simpsons."

So if even the creators know both these shows suck, WHY ARE THEY STILL MAKING IT? Clearly they're not having any fun, cause if they did, it would've translated to this special! But it didn't. I laughed once!

If this happened in 2005, maybe I'd laugh more.

I said no story bc of how week it was just over exaggerating to make my point. If you read the rest of my post I actually mention it.

and yeah I love the car wash scene

Overall, I think the crossover worked. Credit was given where credit was due and the contrast between both shows' humor and characters were handled perfectly. The courtroom scene was genius, the cameos were pleasant, and the whole show was genuinely entertaining. I get that it's virtually impossible for a crossover of this magnitude to meet everyone's expectations due to the infinite amount of missed opportunities, but for an hour special, it was great and you'd be lying if you said you didn't laugh a few times. Otherwise, people just like to bitch and moan. While they've pretty much shot down the idea of doing another crossover, I seriously hope it happens again.

While I enjoyed the episode, I'd rather you would'nt speak as if you know how people react to it. Whenever someone plays that card, It's normally a sign of insecurity in their own tastes.

I didn't feel it was weak though, but I guess they had no other options.

As I said, it worked for what they did, and Peter's line was a joke anyway. I know there were rumors before that said Seth MacFarlane and Matt Groening hated each other, but that's not true at all. I remember on one of my FG DVDs, Seth says that the two actually respect one another's work and it shows in some of the episodes like "PTV" where Stewie runs over Homer and even references "Mr. Plow." Or when Peter was in the "Send in the Clones Clones Clones" Halloween episode. I loved the courtroom scene and how the Kool-Aid guy called and said, "I'm sorry, I'm in the wrong courtroom."

Does it make you sleep better at night thinking I'm insecure of my own tastes or do you just like being a little bitch?

He has a point though in that you can't speak for everybody and how they liked the episode. Some did like it and some didn't. You shouldn't assume that everyone loved it because that's not always the case.

Yes, but before you said, "Come on, you know you probably laughed a few times" so that's why I said what I said. But whatever.

Because maybe not everyone did laugh at the things that were in it. Some people probably rolled their eyes. So, yeah, it does mean that because you're assuming that everyone who saw it thought it was funny.

Are you serious? Give me a break, it's an expression. If someone has nothing but negative things to say about this crossover, they're a whiny bitch, plain and simple. I shouldn't have to clarify. Are you done blowing trivial sh*t out of proportion with your extensive analysis?

Meh!

I dunna, it almost felt like (and it does make sense, considering who had the larger part in it...after all it is a...) Family Guy episode with the Simpsons tacked on. It did have it's moments, but the humor didn't feel very Simpsons-esque, it had mainly a Family Guy sensibility (which again, I get, but it doesn't mean I have to like it.) Never have been a fan of the Chicken Fights, so the Homer/Peter fight was kinda lost on me. The Duff vs. Pawtucket Pat court case was a very nice twist on the assumed rivalry though. I agree that I missed Harry Shearer's characters, but they were at least seen in the courtroom. Sad that he was unavailable. Oddly enough i think my favorite sub-plot was Meg/Lisa because it was pretty sweet. Brian and SLH was also pretty fun. Stewie torturing Nelson and freaking out Bart was ok...but that car wash scene. I felt for Snake, I really did.

Fine. I get it. Sorry that I interpreted it the wrong way. Won't happen again.

I also liked the part with Lisa and Meg and hope that she'll gain more confidence because of it. The car wash scene was gold to me, and I loved the Chicken Fight with Peter and Homer, but then again, I've always loved those.

I think whoever wrote this episode did a pretty awesome job! Despite their issues with each other, the two shows blended well and no Simpsons character acted unlike themselves. Bart was Bart, Lisa was Lisa ect. Hell, I wish 4Kids had been this respectful to the Fred Wolf TMNT when they wrote Turtles Forever.
