Well, hello hello friends… How ya bean dune peanuts?

Wookiee taking a break from schoolwork for a moment to pop in with another episode recap for y’all. I know I haven’t been around a ton but life is pretty crazy this month. Ad a lot of you know, one of the features we like to have on this site is recaps of new Simpsons episodes for all our friends who can’t watch them immediately or like our silly reviews of them. In rare from, I’m starting off the season immediately in an effort to stay caught up with episode recaps for Season 28 . While I can’t promise this will last, I love when there are new episodes of the Best. Show. Ever. on TV and it’s my privilege to not only watch new episodes, which I would do with or without this awesome site, but then break them down for all of you. I stuck to the stream of consciousness format which most of you should be familiar with by now. Basically I watch the episode once for my enjoyment and then a couple more times slowly to catch as much as I can while jotting down notes. Without further ado… here’s my thoughts on Season 28, Episode 1: “Monty Burns’ Fleeing Circus”.

Posted on September 21, 2016 by Alissa | 66 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Ah the first day of Autumn…leaves are falling, that crispness in the air has arrived and there’s a brand new season of TV on! Ok so it’s only the first day of fall, and it still feels completely like summer (at least here in New Jersey) BUT…the last part is true. There’s a whole new season of TV shows…and the Simpsons Season 28 starts this Sunday! To celebrate the Season Premiere EA has launched a fun Episode Tie-In Mini Event in our games..something to gear us up for Sunday.

Of course, as with all events, a questline comes with it to help move us through the ins and outs of the event…and unlock all of the prizes. As was mentioned on the rundown post this mini event is similar to the previous mini-events (like Homer’s Chiliad and the Fire Department before it), in that you’ve got to complete various tasks to unlock the prizes.

So let’s take a look at the questline to see just how to unlock all the fun Premiere Episode inspired prizes…

In-Game Update: Season 28 Premiere Tie-In…Rundown and Details

Posted on September 21, 2016 by Alissa | 130 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

I’ve said it many times…and I’ll say it again..I swear EA has cameras on me. They wait until I leave my office and then release an update. Special thanks to Patric for being on top of this one for me! And for covering for me yesterday as well! Super grateful to have him as part of the Addicts team 🙂

Anywho as many of us predicted an Episode Tie-In has hit our games today to promote this Sunday’s Season 28 Premiere! For those who joined TSTO over the Summer and this is your first time seeing an Episode Tie-In…these are fun little updates that give us a little teaser of what’s to come in this week’s episode of The Simpsons. And usually the items released are related to the new episode. So it’s a fun way to get excited about that week’s episode. They don’t always happen..so it’s always exciting when they do 🙂

Now onto this tie-in…

This one is a bit different from previous ones. In that it’s setup more like a mini event..where you check back after the Season Premiere has aired (on Sunday September 25th) to see more stuff that will unlock!

Let’s break it all down…Homer gets things going with a bit of dialogue and a 3hr task…

Oh and the tie in ends October 4th..just under 2 weeks from now. Who else thinks we’ll see Halloween then? 😉
