I don't know why but for some reason I found this very funny and informative at the same time. Maybe it's because here in the US we really don't give a rating toward... well... crackers. Maybe it's not such a bad idea. Well anyways, the Simpsons crackers get a 4/5 which is pretty darn good for a cracker if you ask us.

Original artwork, autographs and blacklight cards are some of the great-sounding features of the second set of Simpsons trading cards due Jan. 9 from Inkworks.
This card series, dubbed "SimpsonsMania!," features a 72-card base set as well as "cool interactive subsets," according to a news release from Inkworks. Each pack contains seven cards and has a suggested retail price of $1.99. Look for display boxes with 36 packs to sell for $60 to $70.
While we haven't yet seen the Series II cards, the photos and descriptions from Inkworks offer hope they might be the best Simpsons trading cards ever produced.
-Collecting Simpsons!
WizardWorld.com, one of the top Simpsons Exclusive Toy sellers was recently acquired by 800American.com, which seems to be a eMall business. Whether or not the problems with the exclusives will stop or not based on the fact that the company is in the hands of new ownership is still unclear but Simpsons toy collectors are willing to give the NEW WizardWorld.com a try. Playmates has announced that it will send more exclusives through Wizard World, as well as Toys R Us, so collectors will have to wait till then to see how WizardWorld.com will handle the demand for the upcoming exclsuives.
Just when you thought the day couldn't get any better, we bring you the first look at the Series 2 environments. Enjoy.
Hey everyone, the first pics of the Series 8 Playmates World of Springfield Toys are out. The twins will of course come in a two pack like the past release of Itchy and Scratchy. we personally love the Ripped Willie in this set but all the figures look awesome.
December 9th's episode of The Simpsons marks the last episode of executive producer Mike Scully. Scully has been with the show for 4 years and critics agree that during those 4 years the show just has not been the same. Tonight's episode, ironically titled The Blunder Years is where a hypnotist unlocks a repressed memory in Homer, who recalls childhood times with Moe, Carl and Lenny — and his finding of a corpse. Paul Newman has a voice cameo.
One thing we have all been taught in life is that nothing is free, so when something comes along that IS free, you better get it while supplies last ( or before the EBays and scalpers find out ). Inworks, the producers of the latest line of Simpsons Collector card ( the ones who did the 10th Anniversary line ) are promoting the new line which is to be out January 9th. The promo card is number Pi and features alien Kang as "King Kang." It's available at no charge (with a limit of one per person) by writing to Inkworks with a self-addressed stamped envelope. A page on the Inkworks Web site has the address with specific instructions. The offer expires Jan. 31, 2002. No word if Inkworks plans further promo cards for this Simpsons set.
Series 2 was originally scheduled to arrive in stores early this month, but Inkworks moved that back to Jan. 9 at the last minute in a posting on the Inkworks site.

A Hunka Hunka Burns in Love: Julia Louis-Dreyfus is the voice of Gloria, a comely cop who catches the eye of Mr. Burns in this madcap romance. Thanks to a fortune cookie (written by Homer) that says he'll find true love on a particular day, Mr. Burns sets out for a night of "womanizing," much to Smithers' dismay. He eventually meets Gloria, who agrees to a date but ultimately finds the tycoon too old. Burns allays her fears by drafting Homer to testify to his youthful rowdiness. The courtship commences, assisted by Homer — and a vial of a "rare and powerful" physical stimulant. When Mr. Burns pops the question, a charmed Gloria accepts. But not everyone is happy for the couple.
