| Late seasons doubters: "I Am Furious Yellow" is classic. [message #255107] |

I recently rewatched "I Am Furious Yellow" (which premiered on April
28, 2002). Bart creates an internet cartoon entitled "Angry Dad" that's
based on Homer. Marvel Comics' Stan Lee guest stars as himself.
>From start to finish that episode is hilarious; animators in the
chunks, Bart drawing Homer, free stock, Mello Yellow/dirty diapers on
strings, Incredible Hulk.
There is also great artwork, production and acting.
My only criticism would be that Stan Lee slows down the momentum at the
end with his Hulk impression when Homer was just getting started.
I've seen many times in this group, comments from people who have given
up on the show; "Anything after Season 7 sucks", etc.
Yet, if an episode like, "I Am Furious Yellow" premiered in, for
example, "Season 4", it would be considered "classic". I think at this
point, four years later - it should be considered just that.
If you don't find that episode funny, maybe you just don't like comedy.

"Good thing his pants stayed on!"
"Did I break it, or make it better?"
And "somehow, I think his mind is no longer in mint condition". We use
that line a lot around here.

I thought I am Furious Yellow was great too. It even restored my faith in
Swartzwelder scripts. Unfortunately the next week's episode (the one about
Apu having an affair) sucked and was by Swartzwelder so that pretty much
ruined everything.

how about "C'mon, Dad, get angry! Don't make me do a clip show!"
or "I'm a rageaholic! I need my rage-ahol!"

IIRC CBG observed that Stan Lee's mind was "no longer in mint condition".

Well then, you should be double-bagged.

How did you arrive at that conclusion? Hopefully your reasoning will
contain a simpsons reference lest this discussion be deemed off-topic.

Clearly you have no idea what Comic Book Guy means by "mint condition".
It is a comic collecting term, as is "double-bagged".
Please educate yourself in this topic if you wish to discuss it
intelligently. Until then you should restrain yourself from
contributing to this discussion, lest you make a fool of yourself.

YES I am AWARE of that. However, I AM NOT A COMIC BOOK and therefore
your logic is flawed and your conclusion as it stands now is false. It
should be obvious to even the most dim-witted individual who holds an
advanced degree in hyperbolic topology, ng-bwui.

I've changed my mind. You don't need to be double-bagged. You need to
be sealed in Mylar, encapsulated in a CGC holder, filed away in a safety
deposit box, and forgotten.

Yeah, well at least it's original and not the same old "you never
graduated third grade" bit.

That's true, I was just trying to inject a CBG style answer. Actually, the
"flame war" was quite funny, as I was trying to be.
Oh well.
No offense meant. Not flaming, just trying to be funny.

Actually I did get the CBG reference and I thought that it was funny. No
offense was taken. I just wanted to take the opportunity to give one reason
why IMO the war was indeed NOT the worst ever. :-)
