Simpsons teaser trailer reveals movie coming July 27, 2007. Also, in case you missed last Sunday's Simpsons, hyped so incessantly for showing the live-action credits that everyone's already seen on the internet, it also just happened to be the episode written by Ricky Gervais. That's what they sould have been advertising ad nauseum. It was pretty good, overall. Actually started out pretty weak, though about average for recent episodes, but things picked up with Gervais' character showed up. And he sang, which is always great. A solid B+ episode, methinks.
