Dan Castellaneta I am not Homer

SUCKS!

Did I make that clear enough?

Do not buy this disc.

Seriously, I picked this up for about $6, and I could barely make it through one listening. This guy does a bunch of voices on the Simpsons, and it has a quote from Matt Groening on the back saying, "Man, this guy is funny!" but, in fact, this disc is awful. It is done in an improv skit style with his wife, and it really could have used some editing. Actually, it could have used a lot of things, like better writing. On the last track, he does a bunch of Simpsons voices 'in the studio' while Homer is recording a song. Seems like a decent premise, but it's still fairly lame, and can't save this entirely crappy CD.

I just sold my copy to SecondSpin. Good riddance.
Chuck thinks that I look to good to be a computer geek. I think that I know too much about interface design, css, xhtml, php, asp, perl, and ia (too name a few things) to not be one.

D'oh. I haven't heard of this one. What is it, exactly?

I was just listening to Songs In The Key of Springfield andGo Simpsonic, as a matter of fact. The Simpsons Insider The Actor's Studio is on the TiVo I believe.

It's Dan and his wife trying to be funny in a series of skits that needed a lot of work and better editing. It comes off sounding like something from a bad high school A/V club.
