2.0 out of 5 stars Disapointing, January 31, 2009

By	Dan - See all my reviews

As a long time fan, I expected this calendar to be filled with funny quotes and pictures from the show. Instead it contains nothing but boring trivia and pointless facts about things nobody cares about, with a few random pictures of characters pasted in between. Its called the "Laugh-a-Day" box calendar, but so far there's been nothing funny or even the least bit entertaining in it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Creative it's not, June 19, 2009

By	J. Crowell - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Unlike the other reviewers, the entire reason I bought this (and another for my friend) was strictly for the trivia. I couldn't care less about the rest of the filler, in fact it takes away from the fun of the trivia. But what is really wrong with this calendar is that 90% of the trivia answers are C!!! Whoever wrote this REALLY needs to learn the meaning of variation.

When in doubt, guess C!

1.0 out of 5 stars Hardly "Laugh-A-Day"..., February 3, 2009

By	J. C. Walker (London, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This calendar should be called "Obscure and Boring Simpsons Trivia Question A Day"... because that's what you get. "What did Homer say in episode xx.xx?" is a typical example of what you get each day. No jokes. No humour. Extremely disappointing.
