saw this last night. It was ok, i laughed a little bit but this episode could have been much better i think. personally would have loved the promotor to be dana white rather than some random guy imo.

Best line of the episode: “That woman has natural breasts…this can’t be good”
The episode was better than most but still not all that great.

The episode had a few laughs, which you all have mentioned already. Aside from that, Simpsons has really disappointed me over the last few years.

It was good compared to recent Simpsons episodes, but not worth comparing to their heyday. The best part was when the two fighters were rolling for heel hooks and one guy cracked his own leg.
I liked Chuck’s part, but they should have used him more and referenced him by name.

It was a good episode, and I agree the promoter should it be Dana. Go UKPCC!!!!!

Last night’s episode was trash. They completely mocked the sport. They quickly equated an MMA event to men beating up women. If you catch it the promoter says that he has hit every woman he has loved at some point. Then during his fight with Marge he attacks Bart as well. The entire episode was about banning the UFC. Meanwhile just a few seasons ago Homer becomes a boxer (a much more dangerous sport) and there was no slander on that sport.
They had a great opportunity to bring on as many UFC stars as they wanted to as guest parts like they have with other sports stars in other episodes. Instead they just wanted to push an corny agenda which just dated all the writers as not being part of the rising generation. Just not cool or funny. But lets be honest, thats The Simpsons for you nowadays

I agree with the guy fighting a women in the ring with no referee and no class.
They tried to be ‘fair and balanced’ with Marge’s speach at the end of training and meeting great people etc etc, but it was almost too little too late.
I still enjoyed it despite that.
To be fair, they mocked boxing as well, you just weren’t as sensetive to it as you probably are not a big boxing fan.
It was an obvious mismatch, as bad as a man fighting a women, he was show boating and toying with him, they said he was going to kill Homer in the ring and they were all shouting ‘kill kill’, the biggest star was a felon (which was true) there was corruption and fixing, promoters controlled everything. They hardly showed boxing in a positive light.

I agree with Dana’s assessment. I love the Simpsons, but that episode just wasn’t that funny. Clever satire has to bear at least some resemblance to reality for the humor to work.

The best part was Marge’s armbar! I enjoyed this episode and it’s good to see MMA’s rise to being accepted into the mainstream.
