The consensus of Simpsons fans is that nothing compares to the golden age (seasons 1-10) but, what if there were gems in this later seasons? The Annoyed Grunt Boys (Steve & Craig) will, at random, attempt to watch every episode from season 11 and beyond AT RANDOM! AND when the current season is airing they will review those episodes.
Bart and Lisa adopt an abandoned baby chimp and clash over their surprisingly different parenting styles. When the chimp is abducted by a private wild animal zoo, the family goes on a mission to rescue him. Homer is conflicted about saving the ape, because he's convinced the chimp will tear off his face and groin.
