Coming from someone who is generally sympathetic to some post-season 15 episodes of The Simpsons, the episode exemplifies everything that is wrong with the second half of the series. The Glee cast cameo is forced, the songs performed by Flight of the Concords (making this episode already dated) are poor, and the jokes are unfunny enough to give you a small headache.
Modern Simpsons can still sometimes deliver, as evidenced by a few episodes from the season prior to this. Unfortunately, Elementary School Musical presents a show that's unrecognisable from episodes only eight years prior. If you're looking for some newer episodes of the Simpsons to watch, don't start here.
