And here we are, 6 episodes in, we have experianced our fair share of Highs (I, Carumbus), Lows (The 7 Beer Itch) and the averages (Undercover Burns). Now, we reach the point on where we get our annual Lisa Gets a Crush episode. It does look like that they are tring to hype us for that, even though I myself have low expectations for that plot. The plot layout does remind me of the great Season 12 episode 'Trilogy Of Error', but with what we've got so far, it's almost certain it will not be as good as that.
First up, Lisa starts a relationship with a new kid called Blake, who has strange blue eyes. When looking in the plot further, it seems like Blake is like Allison Taylor from 'Lisa's Rival', on how he seems to be a good sax player and seems smart as well. The only 2 differences are that he is male (whereas Allison is female) and that he may or may not be a robot. Anyways I'm not liking the sound of this plot, at best, I could give it a 3/5, but it will most likely end up as an 1/5.
Next up we have Bart following in the footsteps of his father (remember 'The Itchy and Scratchy and Poochie Show') as he becomes a voice actor. Out of the 3 dreams that we get for this episode, this serms to be the most promising of them. On the promo pictures, Bart's friends seem to be happy, but as title of the episode goes, it's surely all going to come cashing down for him, and it could happen in 4 ways:
1: The show is cancelled, putting Bart out of an job;
2: Bart starts to get less apreciated by the fans, leading him to quit;
3: Something happens to Bart (which is very unlikely), resulting in him no longer being able to do the voice;
4: His character gets killed off (a la 'I&S&P')
Also, there could be a scene where we can get the chance to see the Rumpus Room, as in Homer is made to watch Bart's voice acting in there, because someone else is watching the main TV, but chances of that is low, even though this might be out best chances to see it this year. For this, I await an 3.5/5, though I'm leaning more towards a 4/5.
And lastly, we go to what was originally pinned to be yhe main plot of the episode, before we knew about the Lisa and Bart plots, Comic Book Guy goes to an genetic Comic Convention in which he has never been before. When I first heard about it, I was like Eh on the plot. Now that more of it has been revealed, I'm just expecting it to be some filler which just exists. Not that it would be bad, but I'm not expecting it to be the best thing that I've seen all season. It may provide a few laughs, but other than that, I think that's all I really have to say for this part. I'm expecting anything between 2/5 and 3/5 for this.
And now, we hit another problem, because the showrunner for this is none other than Al Jean, who is starting to make episodes go nowhere for a long time, and it could easily happen to this episode as well.
Putting all matters into effect, I await a 2.5/5 for this episode, however for a full grade, I would mostly round it down to a 2/5.
The next 2 episodes look more interesting than this one, however I'm not expecting this one to be down there eith Museum and 7 Beer Itch for quality.
