Season 31, Episode 6
2/10
Not worthy of being a Simpsons episode

Warning: Spoilers
This episode wasn't interesting; the exposition wasn't funny at all and the scene with the YouTube video felt like a horrible attempt of the writers trying to appeal to the current generation of children and teens.

Lisa was acting uncharacteristically, she usually tries to show something meaningful in her school projects, but here she just insulted Marge with no other intent.

The main part was boring and uneventful. I feel like if the episode had a longer running time, the story could have developed better and been more interesting, but the plot was a spin-off of other episodes that challenge Homer's and Marge's marriage.

The ending was very shallow. The only thing that the viewer can get out of it is that queer people have a sense of morale, but the delivery of this point was lazy and felt more like an afterthought that would make the show go back to the status quo.

Overall, the only reason why I gave this episode two stars instead of one was the kind of funny scene with Nelson acting like Maggie that actually made me chuckle a bit.
