This is an early review.

This two-parter really made me hate Clay Puppington, and I don't think I can say that about any other cartoon character. Hell, Cartman from South Park has done tons of horrible things, even indirectly killed people, but watching Clay treat Orel so poorly and so dismissively made me want to break off his frail, wire-supported arms.

Welcome to TV Squad Lists, a feature where each blogger has a chance to list his or her own rundown of things in television that stand out from the rest, both good and bad.

Here's my list of what I believe are the top 14 Simpsons episodes in regards to heartstring tuggery. Share your own in the comments and tell me why mine are wrong.

Let's get to it:

The word is that Sesame Street will be kicking off its new season a bit later than usual this year. It seems some "in-house matters" have delayed production. I think it's probably Big Bird demanding his own trailer again. I hear he's really hard to work with. Anyway, the show's 37th season kicks off on August 14 and will focus more on "social and emotional growth" than in past seasons. I'm guessing the preschool set isn't too concerned about the delay, since I'm pretty sure they don't realize when they're watching a new show and when they're watching a repeat. For as long as I can remember the show has been an amalgam of old and new footage, which I think is why it seems so timeless. While the show has "evolved" with the times, it's still Muppets and cartoons,and that's all kids really care about.
