Season 5 has gone. It is dead. Never to be mentioned again. Video Games are a great waste of everyone's time some of them involve The Simpsons so why don't we talk about them instead. We attempt to rank every video game they have ever released. It was apparent pretty quickly we had not played a lot of them. Regardless of this we did not let this deter us!

This will be a video on our YouTube video so stay tuned for that on Upside Down Shark YouTube channel!

If you're here you should probably check out our list of the Best Video Games featuring The Simpsons and the Worst Video Games featuring The Simpsons as that was a thing we created back in 2019.

It may be 2021, but it's still 1994 somewhere! This week we continue our look at Season 5 of The Simpsons with 'Deep Space Homer' and 'Homer Loves Flanders'. Will this very Homer-centric week provide the necessary guffaws? Tune in to find out.

Also we discuss a lot of outdated news in this episode, which was recorded in mid October 2020. We hope everyone in the UK is coping well in Lockdown 3, and our friends in America are surviving during these turbulent times.

Remember, Black Lives Matter and fuck Donald Trump.

No ep this week! Have a great christmas break everyone! We will be back Jan 8th with a new ep!

This week, we take a look at the episodes 'Homer and Apu' and 'Lisa Vs. Malibu Stacy'. In doing so, we touch on whether it's ok to still enjoy James Woods, whether past cultural appropriation in the show can still be funny, and the patriarchy.

Yeah, it's a heavy week, but it's still a funny one I promise!
