Springfield legalizes gay marriage. From the previews it looks like we might have a good one. Synchronize your watches, ladies and gentlemen.

Man, that hoo hoo or ha ha followed by Nelson's "ha! ha!" just never gets old, and I've seen it in previews at least two dozen times.

Not to mention the Homer-on-Homer action.

That was ... disturbing. To say the least.

I didn't get:

Kid #1: Well that's the end of dad's wedding business.

Kid #2: What makes you say that?

Is that a joke on the fact that Homer never has a job that lasts longer than an episode anymore?

Someone give us a recap.

Oh poop. Was it the single dad/heinous work deadline thing that so cramped your style, eldar?

Homer then begins to marry siblings and people to inanimate objects. I thought it was a hoot. One of the best Simpsons. Before the show, there was a parental advisory warning siting it deals with the topic of gay marriage. Good grief! They have shown much worse than this and the gay marriage is the one that gets the advisory. My son called out from his room to ask if he was allowed to watch. I said of course.
