Season 31, Episode 6
1/10
What exactly were the writers trying to get across?

Ironic how the whole first act was about Marge realising people think she's boring. Well damn right, I was falling asleep in my chair at this frustratingly boring storyline.

All the characters in this episode were annoyingly insecure. Homer thinks a woman is falling in love with Marge, despite there being absolutely zero evidence of this. Because a woman is gay, she is supposed to lust after every other woman?? What an outdated and disgusting view point. LGBT people have morals as well, you know!

This episode felt so hollow and pointless, and you reach the end of it feeling nothing but relief that it is finally over.

A few other points to note, which made me hate the episode even more:

I said it before, but i'll say it again. Kevin Michael Richardson has an incredibly annoying voice, and his characters infuriate me.

The song playing over the lumberjill montage and over the credits is so annoying!

Maybe I was missing something, but I didn't "get" any of the Portland jokes. Maybe they just weren't funny at all, and there was nothing to "get".

Over all, a particularly bad episode, even by season 31 standards.
