26 FEB 2026 · Krusty falls in love with Anne Hathaway, aka Princess Penelope, after she becomes his new co-host. Unfortunately, he realises that if he truly loves her, he can't marry her. Meanwhile, Homer, Carl and Lenny are scouted to work for a rival power plant.
This episode celebrated the show's 20th anniversary, which one of us thought they did rather well, the other, not so much.
We also discuss THAT Star Wars moment, our favourite flavour of doughtnut and more.

19 FEB 2026 · It's the 800th episode, well, not really, but let's review it anyway. This episode is for anyone who has ever lost a pet, as we get a real insight into the loving bond between Marge and Santa's Little Helper.
A spin on the National Treasure franchise, here we see Marge and Homer take a trip to Philadelphia, where they get caught up in a centuries-long treasure hunt that can only be solved with the help of their beloved pooch.

12 FEB 2026 · Yeah this one was a bit of a stinker, despite Grampa finally getting some much-needed respect. A parody of Mitch Albom's Tuesdays With Morrie, this episode sees a human itnerest writer try to monetise Grampa's rambles, with an even more sinister plan for the old man himself.
Meanwhile, we get a real nothign subplot of Bart needing to look after a toy lamb for a school project.
We also discuss water parks, the show's evolution to more Family Guy-esque structure and more.

28 JAN 2026 · Set the pins and pull out the lobster harmonica because this week legendary Simpsons showrunner Mike Scully joins us to review an episode he wrote, "Team Homer"!
We go in-depth on not only what went into the writing of this episode, but also Mike's time working as showrunner, including his thoughts on "Jerkass Homer", the reaction to Principal and the Pauper, his first day in the Simpsons writing room and more.

21 JAN 2026 · Bart wants a brother, so he (kinda) kidnaps an orphan for a day. Honestly, this was a fairly weak story that was filled with the usual unjustified rudeness and angst that tended to pop up in the "teen era" of the show.
There's also a really odd South Park parody that doesn't seem to know why it's there.Despite all this, Dando was once again a big fan of the Homer/Marge story. Maybe this is confirmation that he is indeed getting old.
We also discuss "grape snakes", the best Monopoly token, the stand-out performance from Jordan Nagai and more.

9 JAN 2026 · To celebrate the holidays, here's a Patreon Exclusive episode of Tales Of Futurama...for FREE!
It's the lost episode! Honestly, this wasn't the greatest Xmas episode we've seen. It's just a bit of a downer, which is the opposite of what we were looking for. Xmas eps are the safeground for warm-and-fuzzy cliches, this one went a different direction. A bold strategy, not sure it paid off for 'em.
Essentially, Robot Santa is frozen in ice, which leaves Bender to take the reigns as the new Santa. A fun twist on the old "Santa replacement" story, however not even Kwanzaa Bot could prevent this one from leaving us feeling glum. No wonder FOX weren't fans, child abuse doesn't really fit the Xmas spirit.
