What A Cartoon! - The May 2022 Schedule
🕑 Added 2022-04-30 17:04:19 +0000 UTC
A hearty May welcome to all Talking Simpsons Network patrons new and old! Hope you all enjoyed our big guests last month, as well as our epically long Roger Rabbit podcast. And we're keeping that energy going into the next month as we have so much planned for you. A lost Adult Swim pilot, one of the meanest Futurama eps ever, Hank Hill with porn, and a return to Pixar's top franchise. It's a wild month when broken down like that!
And remember, if you'd like to listen to this month's episodes of TalKing of the Hill and Talking Futurama, you'll need to sign up at the $5 level or higher on the Talking Simpsons Patreon. Once you subscribe, you'll get to hear our miniseries episodes as soon as they go live, and also access our extensive back catalog of Patreon-exclusive podcasts—over 100 to date!
Here's what's on the schedule for May:
Welcome to Eltingville Pilot [Patreon: 5/2/22 - Free Feed: 5/9/22]
As chosen by our premium patron Professor Gascan, we are talking about an Adult Swim hopeful that had an excellent pilot which sadly didn't go to series. Yes, we dive deep into the career of Evan Dorkin and The Eltingville Club, which has so much to say about geeky stuff as well as the maladjusted people who love genre media. It's a fantastic time capsule of late '90s fandom!
Welcome to Eltingville streams on the Adult Swim website.
Talking Futurama - "A Pharaoh to Remember'" [Patreon: 5/9/22]
Sometimes Bender is just kinda mean, and other times he enslaves thousands of people and kills them. This ep is the latter and it's a wild one to revisit. Just how high does Bender's body count go? What is the list of crimes against humanity Bender commits in building his own pyramid? Learn along with us on this pod!
TalKing of the Hill - "Hank's Dirty Laundry" [Patreon: 4/18/22]
As is always the case in King of the Hill's best episodes, this one takes us back to the late '90s in shockingly accurate style. Not only do we get to explore the era of video stores and share tales from both sides of the cash register, but this also aired in the last days of the porn rental market. Learn all about that dirty business as well as the digital horror of "The Beast" in this prophetic podcast!
An Extended Free Preview of What A Cartoon Movie for Toy Story 3 [Patreon: 5/30/22 - Free Feed: 6/6/22]
In a tight vote with our patrons, it was decided that we'll be headed back to the toy chest for the third entry in the Toy Story series. Was the third film a heartfelt farewell to childhood as the series passes on to a new generation? Was it unduly maudlin and overstuffed with too many new characters? Or was it a prophetic vision of a seemingly nice place run by an evil man who insists on hugs? We'll parse out all of this in our typically extensive podcast style!
And remember: $5 patrons and folks on the free feed will hear an extended preview of the podcast, but if you want the whole thing (and access to all other episodes of What A Cartoon Movie) you'll have to bump your subscription up to the $10 level.
That's all for this month! Thanks again for supporting and listening; we couldn't do what we do without you!

Looking forward to the Roger Rabbit follow-up episode. Is there any idea when this might happen? Thanks. ^_^
