Simpsons- Poochie new lines

Homer gives out his new for poochie,quite a sad scene. ALL COPYRIGHT GOES TO FOX and the writers Matt groening.

[@SteelBallRun1890]

I love how Homer says "you can't just kill off a classic TV character" as if Poochie had a long history in media lmao

[@yandhi5016]

yeah, you know, that was the joke...

[@xcalibur64]

Note: Poochie died on the way back to his home planet.

[@lucylocket4740]

Wow, Poochie came from another planet?

[@mohamedtoure4388]

Benjamin Gavrin Haha. First time I see any reference to Poochie from M.O.B Piru coming up.

[@mohamedtoure4388]

Benjamin Gavrin Nobody except Suge and his baby momma knew until 2011 when Greg Kading's book came out. Poochie Fouse was one small dude but a ruthless killer who wasn't to be messed with. I heard he had 5 or 7 bodies to his name.

[@mohamedtoure4388]

Benjamin Gavrin Neckbone was in prison at the time I think. Other members the MOB Piru were there but I think Poochie had a female spotter. Poochie was certainely the shooter since he owed an aqua green Chevy Impala in fact Theresa Swann said that when she met with Poochie after the shooting to give him extra cash his car appeared to have been recently repainted. About Gene Deal, he's a likeabl guy but he isn't reliable and he's change stories so many times.

[@mohamedtoure4388]

Benjamin Gavrin The guy they saw was not Poochie, nobody saw Poochie's face because the people who were in Biggie's car ducked as soon as he shooter started firing his weapon. Plus nobody saw the Nation of Islam guy enter the car, in fact witnesses said the Impala eas lying in wait further down on the side of the road.

[@cuccamunga]

What I find so funny about this speech is that there's a complete shift in tone that would feel so out of place in an Itchy & Scratchy cartoon. If you imagine Poochie actually delivering this heartfelt speech in the middle of one of their segments, it's hilarious. Even when Poochie is owning up to his mistakes, he's still stealing the spotlight.

[@corncake4677]

Would’ve been funnier if he actually did give that speech and they then immediately killed him

[@ToonReel001]

Well I mean, the alternative was killing off Poochie, in a show where characters are killed off routinely and come back the next episode. It really shows how absolutely no one meshed Poochie into the standard creative process.

[@pokedude720]

@@corncake4677 or they just sawed him mid-line and just cut Homer's

[@rphb5870]

yea that is why they made the new ending without even talking to him, he just didn't get it. But what is really strange is why they allowed homer to write the script in the first episode

[@CJCroen1393]

I always liked how Itchy and Scratchy's actress stood up for Homer.

[@OdaVenom]

And I always liked, that in the realm of this cartoon, she continued her job after they figuratively slit his throat, like if Homer never existed.

[@DrBigt]

@@OdaVenom She already did all that she could for him and they weren't even that close friends.

[@gianfrancolopez439]

He stood up for her on the conventions with the nerds.

[@EditorOfSL]

Agreed. I think it’s sweet that she gets along so well with Homer.

[@anonmouse15]

Didn't do any good in the end, Poochie was still killed off.

[@ToonReel001]

While the majority of this episode is a mockery of soulless marketing and writing, this was a pretty poignant reminder, for every lame and unpopular character that is created for a work, there is usually at least someone who had a hand in it and had a genuine passion for them. They just wanted to create something entertaining, even if they sadly didn't quite get how to do it.

[@mo99]

How beautifully put. Thank you.

[@boscopit]

Well they had a hand in making something shitty. Hooray....

[@Nobodyimportant85]

This is Homer's biggest limitation. In the rare event he does something right, some idiot with more power than him overrules him.

[@stevarino1989]

I think it's pretty sad/trollish how the director and everyone else applauds Homer during the recording session like they totally agree with him then they completely screw Homer over by sending Poochie "back to his home planet" (Poochie's animation cel slides up)

[@ericjamesraackf]

It's the harsh reality of show business once that character was proven to be disliked they are rarely if ever given another shot they couldn't take another hit to their ratings which is all that mattered to them in the end. For what it's worth i bet Homer would have really turned the character around but there's also proof to the contrary his ideas to fix the character are pretty bad.

[@MobileTech296]

You just described half the projects I've ever worked on. lol

[@DaveDexterMusic]

I thought the biggest limitation was his overwhelmingly high cholesterol level.

[@isabellafelipedeoliveiraca6698]

+Stephen R And the worse is, even while they were applauding and showing Homer support they were probably already thinking of ignoring Homer's idea and killing Poochie.

[@DaPhaymous1]

when you've watched the whole episode and your watching it again, the part where they all seem to be genuinely clapping is soo much more funnier when you know exactly what their intentions are

[@DrBigt]

To be honest, I think the others were genuinely okay with Homer but you can see Roger Meyers Jr is the only one indifferent about it and he joins in only after everyone else is already clapping. Subtle things like that, which point it was all Roger Meyer's idea (with him even dubbing Homer if you listen to the "I must go now, my planet needs me") is why Simpsons used to be so good.

[@DiggitySlice]

@Billy B that's not fickle, it's called being a liar

[@franks8010]

I feel like they did go with Homer's lines at first, but a few moments before air time, they decided against it, which is why the final result is just the cell animation frame being pulled off screen. Also, if you look at Poochie's face where he was dubbed about his planet needing him, his face looks sincere and about to say something emotional.

actually, i can undertsand Homers passion for the role of Poochie. He got this job for his potential talent as a Voice Actor. He voices a character in the favorite cartoon show of his kids. And Roger Myers remembers his name and said that he is the one he needs. And in his old job his boss doesn´t remember his name nor that homer is one of his employes.

[@0hvist]

Those Words... These Feels... The Following Disappointment.

[@reganbrannigan3006]

This episode is why I feel so bad criticising things without seeing the artists behind it. Many work exceptionally hard and put a lot of passion into it, even if their creations aren’t great.

[@r.pizzamonkey7379]

I mean, this is especially where I don't undestand people attacking actors for their characters like Rose in the Last Jedi. The problem could be the actor, or it could be the writer, the director, the producer, the studio, focus groups, agents, contract negociators... The problem could be any of a thousand people, it's more likely you're harassing an innocent person who had nothing to do with the complaints you had.

[@reganbrannigan3006]

@Keko Novotny Honestly I haven’t gotten that feeling consistently from the Simpsons since around Season 10

[@reganbrannigan3006]

@Keko Novotny well I’ve seen a couple of decent episodes past it but I’d say the last season I properly watched it was Season 18, the last season before the Simpsons movie. I watch the odd episode here and there after that but usually they’re really bad

[@r.pizzamonkey7379]

@Keko Novotny I don't know if I'd agree with creative premises, i think most of them are pretty lazy, but the animation is smooth and the voice actors continuing to do their best is really impressive (especially marge, how do her vocal chords still work at this point?)

[@hobomike6935]

Rose was the ONLY character I thought was somewhat likable in the sequel trilogy. They'd already ruined all the OT characters; Jake skywalker, Leia and Han abandoning everything they stood for in character growth, A completely absent Lando Calrissian till the final movie. Their new characters were just bad. Rose Tico had some cringe lines, sure, but at least her actor tried (I'm looking at you, Daisy Ridley, standing there with your mouth open like a cow for entire scenes, and Poe's terrible "somehow palpatine returned" line) Tico's actor, I can't remember her name, actually was expressive and put a shred of emotion in her lines and in her facial expressions.

[@HunterShows]

Yeah, but Poochie died on the way back to his home planet. Interstellar travel is rough.

It’s weird how Homer was afraid of the character dying even though Scratchy comes back from dying every episode. Like killing Poochy would’ve probably been something people would’ve enjoyed watching and might’ve saved the character.

This clip is really heartbreaking to watch. As you said Willie Boyd, some idiot with more power than him overruled him for no good reason, which is abysmal.

[@infernocanuck]

Actually, they overruled him for an extremely good reason. The entire audience LOATHED poochie. See all those cheers when the character ended up dead? They didn't let one speech determine what their audience wanted to watch. It was clear the consumer hated the new character, so they axed him.

[@oceanstar70]

Except when he punched Me Burns

[@rohunsaigal2576]

they overruled him because the character wasn't working

[@martinzhang5676]

Everyone was excited for Poochie before debuted, they could try and rewrite the character into something that people actually wanted. They tried too hard to pander and be relevant but if they just made Poochie more in line with the show's previous tone, he could have been successful.

[@rohunsaigal2576]

I think the point of the episode is that there is no fix for a stale show. People like the idea of change but don't actually like change, and even if they like the original they won't watch it because it's been on too long. Basically the Simpsons writers venting their frustrations. Lisa herself said there's nothing wrong with the show. Nobody in the episode knows what they actually want with a new character, they're all idiots.

This teaches us some important lessons. When fans complain about a show being the same, a new character is introduced and when the character is introduced, the fans whine and complain like a bunch of babies, so they get rid of the new character with no regrets. On the other side of the spectrum, when introducing a new character, we shouldn’t try to be relevant or give them tons of skills. If there are tons of traits for the new character with no development or flaws, there’s no character at all.

Was Roger Meyer Jr faking because he was reading the room only to use his power later? Did Krusty force this since he wasn’t there to hear the speech? After all the show is very vague as to who has more power Meyers or Krusty. Was there some unseen network force that took it out of their hands?
