The only excuse I can imagine is that the writers were also trying to minimize screen time and only wrote one draft. What a mess. Every premise imaginable seemed to be wrong. And what was the point, exactly? Well, here are three things I liked: the sound
effects CD (I've been known to collect some), garden/danger (which I just realized might employ Homer's newfound jumble skill, but maybe that's giving it
too much credit), and "talc is cheap". The rest... well...

DYN:
...no one seems to know it's Daylight Saving Time, not "Savings"?
...this old portable (analog) TV still gets a signal?
...Homer's first Jumble doesn't work at all right (the individual words shouldn't make a sentence, and I can't imagine multiple solutions would be permitted [DDA = ADD, in addition to DAD, for example, if DAD is even legal]), but the second seems more in
the usual style?
...Selma is smoking (compare the Disney gag in ZABF07)?
...ex-Simpsons writer Dana Gould lends his voice again?

Previous episode stuff
9F14, TABF19: Another entry in the "-less" episode title pattern
GABF02: Jammitin logos cover an entire monitor in the rehab computer room

Meta
Maggie complains that she "was America's baby once" (in reference to The Mandalorian).
Marge tells us, the viewers, to stop using our screens too, just before a cut to commercial.

The next clip emanates from the ceiling
Dedications are back (I still can't believe Kirk Douglas got nothing)... tonight, before the Gracie logo, a nod to James Lipton (DABF14, NABF05) with what might be a publicity image as opposed to an episode still. Don't expect to
see that next time.

Vroom vroom
Cars driving around in circles took a little extra time to drive around in circles today. In my area, the 7:00 repeat of ZABF06 (The Miseducation of Lisa Simpson) was joined in progress at 7:24 with the usual abbreviated NABF21 intro, then only a little
over a minute of act 3, more ads, and the end. I don't know why they didn't just claim the entire half hour at that point. But now you know.

Any idea
how long from writing it to broadcast on this episode?
