Or something! Whatever, who cares, fuck you! – Zooey Deschanel voices Mary, who I can commend for actually giving an honest performance with a Southern accent, and also because she’s Zooey and she’s adorable. They’re probably just bitter that it made more money over the summer of 2007 than their movie did. Zing! I’ll say once more, this show has lost its right to decry someone else’s quality. – Bart drives over a pile of manure with his harvester, and it spits out DVDs of Pirates of the Caribbean 3. – Trans-Clown-o-Morphs has nothing on the Mattel and Mars Bar Quick Energy Chocobot Hour But it’s no different than most of the episodes nowadays. Empty of any believable character actions, clever jokes or commentary, interesting stories… it’s just a big, big vacuum of nothing. Then we cap things off with the cow being sent off to India thanks to Apu, and a high-larious sequence of Homer trying to escape the slaughterhouse factory floor. It’s all just a stupid farce that I could care less about. Plus, the marriage is in no way legally bound considering how young they are, so I’m not quite sure what the stakes are here. Could he not explain the situation to Cletus? Nah, forget that. Unbeknownst to him, giving a young lady a cow is considering a marriage proposal to hillbilly folk, so to keep his cow safe, Bart must go along with this marriage, which neither he nor Mary want to go through with. It’s yet another example of how the writers seem to have no idea how to write Bart anymore.īart rescues the cow and offers it safety at Cletus’ farm, in the care of one of his daughters Mary, also a 4-H member. It’s also akin to “Bart the Mother,” where Bart is in pathetic namby-pamby wimp mode, moping about the cow and its plight. This show has shades of “Lisa the Vegetarian,” where Bart grows remorse for this creature he’s eaten dozens of before, but shakes off any dietary qualms he may have in one infuriating scene with li’l preachy Lisa. He’s tasked with raising a calf to full health, and his reward in the end is seeing his full-grown bovine be first in line for the slaughter. Upon seeing Martin driving a cool harvester, Bart joins the 4-H club to drive one too, and ends up getting invested in doing farm work. In this case, I honestly believe the inception of this show was, “Bart says, ‘Don’t have a cow, man,’ so why don’t we give him a cow!” So they did, and cobbled together a bunch of stuff that can barely be considered a plot. Some have commented that it seems like the writers come up with the stupid episode title parodies first, then write the actual episode tenuously based on said title.
