And so many of the characters are stereotypes of one kind or another, you just know it would be hella problematic.

Once. But by the time I got to the phone, my discovery had already been reported by Principal Kahoutek.....I got back at him, though, him and that boy of his.

I only saw the end of the last bit of the new Treehouse, which was a The Shape of Water parody. What were the other two?

I watched tonight's Treehouse of Horror, the 30th edition of the Halloween tradition...
Yeah, the quality of these has really fallen in later seasons. There were some okay moments, but a far cry from where these things used to be.
The intro was a rushed parody of The Omen that probably could have been its on short.
Then we got a lame and half assed Stranger Things parody.
The second story was the best with Heaven being sold out to Google and reincarnation treated like a dating app, but the ending kind of sucked.

Gotta admit, that's a creative idea for a sci-fi novel or a satirical show like South Park. It just sucks it was made by current-day Simpsons.

I just watched the whole thing and I wished i didn't. I'm pretty sure it was the worse one they ever done.

Yeah, so maybe if your parody takes place in the 1980s, maybe you shouldn't do an Amazon.com joke.

Sad they went there. Surprised it couldn't be a joke about home shopping channels like HSN since that was around then.

Man, you guys are quick watchers for the TOH. Now that I've watched it, I can say that I guess the segments sort of had an upwards slope of improvement throughout, I'd assume?
The intro segment was pretty flat and unfunny. Demon Maggie is such a repetitive trope in TOH, I don't know why they would commit to it again, even for an Omen parody, which I'm surprised they haven't done until now. Also, something I noticed in the joke where they are trying to find Maggie's mark of the beast was that in the promo before the show, it was Bart, but in the show itself, it's Mickey Mouse. Does anyone find that odd? It feels kind of deliberate within the way that was executed. They censored out the Disney joke for the advertisment.... 0/10.
The first segment was the worst one. The Stranger Things parody had little-to-no plot or no stakes. It wasn't funny at all, it was very forgettable, and the tone is weird. It's supposed to take place in the 80's, but there are a few modern references in it, including an Amazon one for some reason. 0/10.
The second segment was pretty boring, but a little more interesting. Dead Homer switching bodies with people in order to stay with Marge until he finds the right one. Interesting, but it didn't bring any laughs. 3/10.
The third segment was the best one, surprisingly. I thought The Shape of Water parody was gonna be the worst, but I laughed a few times. Particularly at Mr. Burns saying "don't aim at the truck, shoot the driver" to an army man in a car trying to chase after Homer, Selma, and Barney trying to sneak Kang away and the army man shooting the driver was pretty well-timed as well as Mr. Burns doing a little "nah-nah-a-boo-boo" dance after Kang uses the Infinity Gauntlet to destroy the army. 5/10.
So I'd rate this episode around 2/10. Maybe 3. Not sure. Pretty bad and pretty boring except for the last segment. I'd say it's slightly worse than last year's. Last year's had the Multiplisa-ty segment with some of the series' most fluid animation EVER. It was almost movie-tier animation, even if the jokes weren't memorable, the visual gags certainly were. Hell, I'd even say last year's TOH had a better intro as well with the Cthulu shit. This one was very mundane.

As usual, AV Club just gives it a B- even though the reviewer describes the episode as "wheezy". What's so weird is that every segment's separate grading is also a B-. It's extremely strange that this reviewer's default rating is B- for pretty much everything. I have no idea what kind of scale they use, but that's a weird bar to set.

The XXXth/666th "Treehouse Of Horror" is just The Simpsons' wheezy annual horror exercise
At its best, the annual “Treehouse Of Horror” episode gives The Simpsons an opportunity to bust loose of the admittedly elastic laws of its animated universe to treat us with some loopily inventive genre tales. If an outing manages to ground its trilogy (or more, in this case) of comic terrors...

Hmm, I had an idea for a little game for this thread. I know this is meant as a "griefing thread", but let's face it, it's pretty much the de facto general discussion thread for The Simpsons as well.
Pick a random screenshot from The Simpsons and then pick a song that you think fits it best.
Here's a few to start us off...
Nirvana: Smells Like Teen Spirit
Glen Campbell: Rhinestone Cowboy
The Stonemans: Little Old Log Cabin In The Lane
