A Midsummer's Nice Dream
In this episode of The Simpsons it starts with an old comedy act on TV that is being brought back to do a tour of skits. The duo is called Cheech and Chong, much like Beevis and Butthead. Homer is extremely excited about this and bring the whole family to the concert. At the concert Chong while doing his skit was disinterested in doing what they rehearsed because everyone in the crowd knew all the lines he was going to say. Chong stormed off stage saying he wanted to experiment with his act, and Marge convinced homer to go down on stage a do Chong's part since he was so fimiliar with their comedy. Homer ened up going on the rest of the tour as Cheech and Chunk, only to find that Cheech was a lot more serious than his on stage act which is something he didn't like. Meanwhile back home Marge and Lisa happened upon the crazy cat lady's house and find out that she is a hoarder. while she is out they clean up her house and before sending the stuff to the junk yard, marge notices she wants to keep some of it. Eventually marge turns the house into a hoarders house, and before they get the chance to fix it the crazy cat lady moves in with all of her cats.

It was funny how in the episode they have a few scenes about hoarding. There are so many commercials for shows on TV nowadays about "animal hoarding" on Animal Planet and other people who have hoarding issues on TLC, so it is funny how they included in this episode. I also talked about in my blog how Homer was discontent about the fact that Cheech was much more serious in real life than his on stage persona.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was funny to see the "typical" cat woman and how she was portrayed as the stereotypical un-hygenic person with a million cats. I saw an episode of the show hoarders with a woman that looked exactly like her and had the same hoarding problem. On top of that she had hundreds of cats in her house. This created a sanitation problem. There is such a stereotype for "cat people"...I often hear girls say "i'm never gonna get married I'm just gonna grow up and have a hundred cats".
