It's a shame they didn't keep bringing Leon back as planned (as different celebs)

I never understood why they banned the episode, wasn't Michael found innocent?

The court of public opinion said no, regardless of what the actual courts said.

I'm pretty sure Matt Groening is in favor of binning the MJ episode, too. (Of course Disney has the final say.) And I get it; but there's a lot of people out there who will fight like wolverines for anything you tell them they can't have. Did the episode even have die-hard fans, before it was locked up?

Also the episode was removed from streaming before Disney bought Fox

The sweetest episode where Bart writes the song for Lisa?

🎶happy birthday Lisa🎶

Yes.

It’s a damn shame Michael wasn’t the one singing, but I wager that woulda been way too expensive.
