Simpsons Gets Lower Ratings Than Sit Down, Shut Up
 THE D'OH REPORT 

Not that ratings matter or anything, but last night's Simpsons episode got less viewers than the first episode of the quickly-cancelled Sit Down, Shut Up (5.11 million versus 5.2 million) [Simpsons Channel, Wikipedia]

Not Even The Guest Stars Watch The Simpsons
 THE D'OH REPORT 

Mitch Albom, author of Tuesdays with Morrie, who had a cameo in last week's episode:
Months passed. Christmas. New Year's. And last Sunday, I was in the car on my way to a birthday party when someone called and said, "Hey, your 'Simpsons' episode is on."

And I said, "Again, please?"

They never called to tell me.

So I missed it.

[Detroit Free Press]

Producers Forget To Obtain Rights For Song, Use It Anyway
THE D'OH REPORT
posted 17 December 2007 source gothamist


Kalina says this of the surprise Simpsonization: "A few months back a producer from the Simpsons contacted Carly [Comando] about using her song 'everyday' for an upcoming episode in which they were going to parody my video. She was negotiating a rate for the song, until they never got back to her. No fee was agreed on, no contracts signed. She and I both assumed that they were no longer interested in using her song for the show. Last night the episode aired and sure enough her song is part of the show. What's up with that?! I am thrilled that the Simpsons parodied me, but Carly should have been compensated."

Those knuckleheads at TV Squad seem to think strangling your 10-year old son makes you a great father. Aye carumba!
