isnt that usually the way it works, or do I just not get hollywood?

The script is the film. If the script is approved the go ahead is given to make the film not that that stops changes and rewrites happening all the time but the basis is that there should be a script first.
The Simpsons probably wouldn't need approval of any kind. It was obviously going to make money even it was a trundling mess. I don't know anything about the background of the film by the way! Just giving my impression.

One of my favourite episodes is when Sideshow Bob takes over the airshow,

Is that the one where he had the television stations shut down?

Yeah, and then Krusty uses the emergency broadcasting channel.

Thanks. That was an excellent Simpsons, with Krusty carrying out his show on the EBC from a shed out in the desert.

Brilliant scene even if it is from later series.

Every second new episode seems to feature a horrible celebrity guest star appearance.
I think the sacha baron cohen episode is possibly the worst episode of anything i have ever watched.

"Just the tip!" :pac:

Archer's a bit hit and miss, current season is good so far though.

Just watching a new(ish) episode where Homer and Principal Skinner are on a winter Olympics curling team..think that's what's happening anyway.

Anyway, Skinner's mother just had a flashback where she complained that Seymour has always been a burden on her, even when he was in the womb, totally disregarding the Armen Tamzarian story..?

Whatever they're paying the writers these days, it's too much.

In fairness that was kinda the point.

Well it's just always going to be in the back of my mind, yeah they said pretend that everything was the same as it was before but then if you show Skinner's mother having flashbacks of him while he was in the womb it just makes no sense whatsoever. Like I said, the writers today are complete hacks.

I always thought the Movie was the biggest mistake they made...the thing to do with that would have been to bring back Hank Scorpio, the greatest one episode character in television history.

Hank Scorpio is the supervillain everybody loves.
