Four Great Characters Collide in this Charming Episode,
lesleyharris3013 October 2010
Moe Letter Blues is a terrific Simpsons episode with a very well written storyline and loads of very funny scenes. The story is very complicated when you think about it, as it has to analyse the last several hours of three different characters as they try to evaluate why one of their wives may have left them for Moe, but it is actually very straight forward to watch, the story was developed very well and perfectly constructed. We get to see four great Simpsons characters shine in this episode, Homer, Apu, Reverend Lovejoy and Moe, they are all very different in personalities and that mix combined to make an episode that is not like any other. It's basically divided up in to three segments (Homer's story, Apu's and Lovejoy's) and they are all great, I didn't find any to be weaker than the other, they were all on an even scale, and the set up of the episode keeps you anxiously waiting for the finale, which I think was a great position to put the audience in. A very clever and different episode that never forgets to be funny, Moe Letter Blues is certainly a highlight of the twenty first season.

When Homer, Reverend Lovejoy and Apu all take their children on a trip to give their wives a break from the kids, Moe sends them a letter saying that hes gonna leave Springfield with one of their wives. The three reminisce to find out who it could be.

3/10
Lazy filler content
santifersan8 June 2023
"Moe Letter Blues" is an episode of The Simpsons that can easily be categorized as a dull and lackluster Mother's Day special. The plot feels lazy and uninspired.

Furthermore, the episode's storyline is banal and there are no jokes. It can only be watched once because of the inclusion of a plot twist.

Perhaps the aspect of "Moe Letter Blues" is that it feels like filler content within the series. It doesn't contribute anything meaningful to the overarching storyline or character development. Instead, it comes across as a forgettable and disposable episode that could easily be skipped without missing anything substantial.

In conclusion, "Moe Letter Blues" is a forgettable and lackluster installment in The Simpsons. Its uninteresting plot, lack of humor, and forced plot twist make it a one-time watch at best. It's a disappointing addition to the series and leaves viewers feeling frustrated by its inclusion.
