What Tim Burton Would Watch to Cheer Himself Up

Posted on 08.17.05 by Widge @ 5:03 am

The story of Emmeline, "The Little Girl Who Was Forgotten by Absolutely Everyone (Including the Postman)," is such a lovely little morbid thing. Screenhead put it best when they said it was "so freakin' Goth that it shits Live Journals."

Awesome.

My Advice: Grab it if you're a Simpsons fan.

The Simpsons are back with four classic episodes. In "Dog of Death," Santa's Little Helper needs an expensive operation. The family resents having to sacrifice other things to pay for it, and he runs away, only to become an attack dog of Mr. Burns'. Bart gets caught shoplifting in "Marge Be Not Proud," and has to find a way to earn his mother's respect again at Christmas. "The Secret War of Lisa Simpson" finds Bart sent off to military school after a typical Bart incident, and Lisa decides she wants to go, too, only to find herself the butt of the other cadets' hazing because she is a girl.
