    I can't agree with the negativity surrounding this episode
    I liked this episode, I thought there were some good jokes in this.

    Marge opens a gym and a new comic book store opens in the town - both plots worked well in my opinion.

    Yes, Jack Black is a bit wasted as a guest voice, but on the whole I thought this was another strong episode from the 19th series.
