1. Hubert, great work on the cafeteria gravy story.

2. Answered a lot of questions but raised a lot more.

3. I come bearing the thing you journalists hate most: news.

4. The Daily Fourth Gradian is hemorrhaging money.

5. Last month the paper lost...

6. $32.

7. But you can't put a price on the truth.

8. I finally got a source to go on the record

9. about dodgeball concussions.

10. Bombardment, bombardment.

11. Bombardment.

12. I'm sorry, but I have no choice but to bring in a new editor.

13. The fifth grader who somehow

14. turned the school poetry magazine

15. into a cash-blasting fire hose: Billy.

16. Preschool is over, news skanks.

17. Today is gonna be like Carrie Underwood

18. hosting the Country Music Awards—

19. we're in for a lot of changes.

20. You— I can tell you're a real talent.

21. Get out. You're fired.

22. See? No one's safe.

23. Fidget spinner.

24. What are you doing?

25. Hubert's a good journalist.

26. Good journalism ain't paying the pizza man, toots.

27. We are going online only:

28. pop-culture quizzes, sponsored lists,

29. headlines that grab you by the book bag:

30. "You Won't Believe What Milhouse Looks Like Now."

31. You bet your book bag I won't.

32. But you can't just turn the school paper

33. into online clickbait.

34. We have a responsibility to...

35. Oh, my God, it's still talking.

36. I hate you so much I'm giving you the most important job

37. at this swipe rag.

38. - You're a what? - I'm a recapper.

39. Huh? What?

40. A TV recapper.

41. I watch every episode of a show, then write a summary,

42. followed by snarky comments and a letter grade.

43. Well, sometimes I do worry

44. I have the wrong opinions about what I've just seen.

45. Ugh. This isn't me.

46. What kind of person can just spew out an endless stream

47. of knee-jerk reactions?

48. They should hand out candy at Thanksgiving

49. and stuffing at Halloween.

50. Say, Dad, you sure have a lot of strong opinions.

51. Why don't you watch this show and tell me what you think?

52. Hey, yeah. Ah!

53. Ta-da!

54. Mm-hmm.

55. Hmm.

56. The mouse and the cat hate each other.

57. That feels real to me.

58. It was quite a ride, and I was on board

59. until the shawarma screamed. Huh.

60. Very disappointing.

61. An instant classic.

62. Dad, you were born to describe TV at a fourth-grade level.

63. Ooh, well.

64. Would you recap The Krusty Show for my school paper?

65. All you have to do is watch TV and say things about it.

66. Just say things about TV.

67. Oh.

68. Krusty, a recapper is now reviewing your show.

69. Let me see that.

70. "Monologue seemed endless"?

71. "Pie clearly hits face of stunt double"?

72. "Overuse of comedic rule of three"?

73. Why would I possibly care

74. about the opinion of this pathetic bottom feeder?

75. Huh? B-minus?

76. C-plus? Aah!

77. C-minus?

78. Ow!

79. Today's Krusty Show pulled out all the stops.

80. Which was a huge mistake,

81. as many of the stops should have been left in. D-plus.

82. I'll teach you

83. to insult a thin-skinned Hollywood narcissist.

84. Oh, Tesla, your 900-pound feet

85. of silent, instant torque is the perfect killing machine.

86. Where do I know that guy?

87. Aah! Aah!

88. Vengeful clown!

89. "Krusty is trying to murder me.

90. "If he does,

91. it'll be the first time he's killed in years."

92. - I'm not funny?

93. You want to see something really humor?

94. "Running me off the road?

95. Clearly, a murderer out of ideas."

96. - Like my show!

97. Why? Is it season four again?

98. Why, you.

99. - Whoa. - Whoa.

100. Oh, please be okay. Please be okay.

101. If anything happened to you, I-I don't know what I'd do.

102. Oh, give me a sign.

103. Let me know my world isn't over.

104. Don't look in my trunk!

105. But if you do, a Chinese doctor says I need it.

106. Oh, you're okay.

107. All right, tell me who assaulted you, and we'll bring 'em in.

108. Unless it's gangs or motorcycle guys.

109. A motorcycle guy will whip you

110. right in the face with his chain.

111. He doesn't care.

112. Krusty tried to run me off the road!

113. But I'm still alive. C-plus.

114. Ah.

115. - Don't worry, Krusty.

116. I know a place where the police will never find you.

117. Yeah, good luck, kid, but I'm a big-time TV celebrity.

118. The last thing I could ever do is blend in.

119. Hmm?

120. The circus? Why?

121. You're a clown.

122. I won't stand here and be insulted!

123. Y... Oh, right.

124. Kid, I'm a TV clown,

125. not like these trapeze-sucking tent-fluffers.

126. Circus clowns don't talk,

127. while I perform to camera with finely honed subtlety.

128. Hey-hey!

129. Easy on the "hey-heys."

130. The cops are looking everywhere for you.

131. I can't go to jail.

132. I just quit smoking. What do I do?

133. Huh?

134. So, what do you call yourself?

135. Soggy. Soggy the Clown.

136. Thought we already had a Soggy.

137. Nah, nah, you're thinking of Moisty.

138. You're hired.

139. So, Soggy, uh, what's your act?

140. Well, I can introduce cartoons,

141. pretend to enjoy children's breakfast cereal.

142. Oh, and I completely blow my stack

143. when someone takes my parking space.

144. You sound like a... TV clown.

145. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

146. I hate TV clowns from how you just said that.

147. TV clowns.

148. Riding four to a car like royalty,

149. eating their stew from a bowl instead of cupped hands.

150. And you know who's the worst is that white-faced Judas: Krusty.

151. Wait. Circus clowns hate Krusty?

152. Don't you?

153. In my way I've hated him all my life.

154. Yeah, you get it, Soggy. You're a good kid.

155. Anyway, this is where you eat, this is where you sleep,

156. and this is where you sweep up the elephant crap.

157. So, all three in this cage.

158. Efficient, right?

159. Now meet the finest clowns

160. from the greatest closed circuses in the world.

161. Skitters, Bumpo, Wiggles,

162. Clabby, Dr. Pickles, Mr. Bindle,

163. Barrels, Drooly, Trembles,

167. Ding-a-ling, Bing-bong, Ring-a-ling,

168. Flip-Flop, Fiddle-Faddle, Flap-Jack,

169. and Scene Blow.

170. Nice to meet...

171. Yeah.

172. It's him. It's really him.

173. A regular dork and a girl one.

174. It is an honor to meet the man whose recaps were so devastating

175. that the star of the show tried to kill him.

176. The secret is, say what happened.

177. Oh, it's like we're talking to Hemingway.

178. Or Shep Goldfein from TV Zorp.

179. How would you like to come recap for us

180. full-time at Culture Smash?

181. You'll pay me to watch TV?

182. God bless you, content-addicted clickbaiters.

183. We'll start you on 30 shows.

184. This month?

185. Uh, no, tonight.

186. Welcome to Peak TV.

187. This Is Us.

188. This is me.

189. C-plus.

190. Hey there, Soggy.

191. You excited for your first show?

192. Nervous? I'm not nervous.

193. Get this kid. "Nervous."

194. Nervous.

195. Well, you sure are saying "nervous" a lot.

196. Shut up, you nervous little punk.

197. I'm the king of 4:00 p.m. TV.

198. I can clown the pants off these losers.

199. That's what the clowns here drink before the tent opens.

200. - It's called Hippo Juice. - Do you even know what's in it?

201. I need my Hippo Juice!

202. Okay, Walking Dead.

203. Too much walking, not enough dead. C-plus.

204. Game of Thrones.

205. Who is everybody? A-plus.

206. Stranger Things. Spielberg's back. C-minus.

207. Homie, you're watching so many shows.

208. Why don't you take a break?

209. We can open the third drawer of the nightstand.

210. The anniversary drawer.

211. Mmm. Mmm.

212. Making out on the bed— a familiar formula,

213. but still delivers the goods.

214. Mmm. Ooh, a butt-squeeze.

215. Motivated by character and moves the story forward.

216. Mmm. Could an ear nibble be the thing

217. to reinvigorate this tired franchise?

218. Wait. Are-are you recapping our snuggle?

219. No, no, just pillow talk, baby.

220. If you say so.

221. Savvy viewers will notice

222. the husband hasn't brushed his teeth.

223. That is it.

224. You're watching so many TV shows for your recapping job,

225. it's ruining our life.

226. And don't you dare give me a letter grade.

227. Okay, I'll just let this be... minus.

228. It's either me or the job.

229. Hmm. Marge creates what feels like false jeopardy.

230. No, the moment is well earned.

231. Oh, they just got rid of their best character.

232. Soggy, a word of advice: you suck.

233. Turn in your Hippo Juice bucket,

234. your hippo crystals, and your hippo pipe.

235. You're fired.

236. Oh, come on, Tootso.

237. You don't really mean that, do you?

238. - Oh, it's true.

239. I'm a terrible clown.

240. Cheer up, Krusty.

241. There's got to be another circus out there, a worse one.

242. Nah. I'm not a TV clown.

243. I'm not a circus clown.

244. I'm nothing.

245. Soggy, the high wire bear got sick

246. after eating the Guess-Your-Weight Guy,

247. so we need somebody to do his act.

248. And none of the other clowns will do it

249. because there's no net.

250. So, well, we thought of you.

251. You mean a last chance to redeem myself?

252. No. No, no. If you live, you're still fired.

253. Oh, who cares?

254. I'm in.

255. (to tune of "Entrance of the ♪ I don't care

256. Whoa!

257. Oh. Whoa!

258. Ow!

259. Oh!

260. Whoa!

261. - Ow.

262. Ta-da.

263. They're applauding.

264. And there's no applause sign.

265. I didn't know that was possible.

266. Circus cheers are the greatest cheers in the world!

267. There he is, there's our new star.

268. That was the most daring act I've ever seen.

269. And I saw a circus do a Beatles tribute without permission.

270. I think I'm falling for you, Soggy.

271. I don't think you're really my type.

272. Mmm, you.

273. My whole life up till now was nothing.

274. From this day forward, I am Soggy,

275. Soggy the Clown!

276. I'm flattered, Tootso,

277. but I'm already seeing someone.

278. I'll meet you behind the seal tank in half an hour.

279. Good news. Your agent just called.

280. A Japanese game show needs an American celebrity

281. to pop out of toilets to scare couples on dates.

282. The cops will never find you.

283. Two weeks ago, I would've jumped at that.

284. But I'm a circus clown now.

285. But you're a big-time TV star.

286. Ain't the circus worse by far?

287. Oh, I used to love celebrity,

288. but I've got big top clarity.

289. Because...

290. ♪ Because circus clowning

291. Bad news:

292. - we're shutting down the circus.

293. Shutting it down? But why?

294. - A terrible video got out. - Which one?

295. - The video we sell here at the circus.

296. If they close this place down, what do I run away to?

297. College?

298. It's all over.

299. I'm losing the only happiness I didn't have to chug,

300. snort, shoot, bet on, or get enlarged.

301. For the first time, I was a real clown.

302. And now I've lost that.

303. To save my marriage, effective immediately,

304. I'm resigning as recapper.

305. My apologies to Culture Smash

306. and the entire Garbage Blast media family.

307. Mm.

308. Get in. - Okay.

309. Homer, I'm the CEO of a major media conglomerate.

310. We can't have you quit.

311. You're one of America's top recappers.

312. I had to quit; recapping was ruining my marriage.

313. There were so many shows, I couldn't keep up.

314. It's true. Currently there are over 500 scripted shows

315. on network, cable, and streaming.

316. Why are you making so many shows?

317. No one could watch more than 300 of them.

318. Oh, we don't care if people watch.

319. We just care if they subscribe

320. - for $13 a month.

321. You see, if people subscribe but don't watch,

322. then we don't actually have to make the shows.

323. We just need viewers to believe they can watch them.

324. Fake shows?

325. But what if people try to see them?

326. They won't, because recappers like you

327. will give those shows a B-minus.

328. No one ever watches a B-minus.

329. But, but that's crazy.

330. It could never work.

331. It already has.

332. Are you familiar with the USA Network?

333. Sure. Royal Pains, Suits, White Collar.

334. Have you ever seen any of those shows?

335. No, but somebody must have...

336. Surely somebody...

337. There is no USA Network.

338. There hasn't been for 20 years.

339. It's just bus ads!

340. Oh, my God.

341. Peak TV is a lie.

342. Your plan is insane.

343. Perhaps.

344. But not as insane as making...

345. that... many... shows.

346. I never had faith in God or family,

347. but I had faith in television.

348. And I won't let you do this to Him.

349. I have everything you said recapped right here.

350. And I'm gonna tell the whole world

351. every detail of your terrible plan.

352. Hey, there's half a birthday cake in the break room.

353. Mind if I...?

354. All right, I get it, I get it.

355. No, no, you can't close the circus.

356. There's got to be a way to keep this place running.

357. If we only had 50 grand, we could start over

358. with a new name and a new act.

359. Yeah. We can get the Flying Branzinos.

360. Nobody pickpockets a crowd like those guys.

361. But we don't have the 50 grand.

362. The circus is done.

363. No, no, listen.

364. I can get you your money.

365. With this.

366. You're gonna teach us to read?

367. No. I'm Krusty.

368. Hey-hey.

369. On the count of attempted murder of Homer Simpson,

370. the jury finds Herschel Krustofsky...

371. not guilty?

372. It was self-defense, Your Honor.

373. That recapper gave Krusty's show bad grades.

374. It was justifiable Homer-cide.

375. He gave Outlander a B-minus.

376. That show knows what it wants to be. Come on.

377. Ooh, I've heard that gets really good about eight episodes in.

378. Krusty, you're free to go.

379. - Mmm.

380. Is there room on that train for one more clown?

381. Well, he did save the circus.

382. What do you say, Scuzzo?

383. Please, I'm not Krusty anymore.

384. I'm a circus clown.

385. I'm Soggy.

386. You're a, you're a TV clown.

387. The greatest TV clown I've ever had the honor to know.

388. But you're a traitor to our kind.

389. Goodbye, circus.

390. Goodbye.

391. - Another terrible show.

392. - Thanks a lot, Chris Pine.

393. And now the bad recap.

394. They always find some new chump to tear me down.

395. "A"? I got an "A"?

396. Everything I've ever done has been great!

397. I'll never be sad again.

398. "A" is for Ralph.

399. Dad, look, they posted our story this morning.

400. Hmm.

401. Together we've exposed the truth.

402. It'll be the one legitimate piece of journalism

403. on the whole site.

404. What's with this boring Peak TV article?

405. My patience is growing shorter than Rachel Maddow's crew cut.

406. How many times do I have to tell you:

407. no bait, no clicks.

408. Hey, you, yeah, gummy bear,

409. put up a slideshow that'll get me some eyeballs.

410. Eyeballs!

411. Ooh.

412. Shh!
