[Link to all episodes and blurbs.](http://egbfans.weebly.com/spin-off.html) Mind you, there really isn’t very much to see on the day of posting. We kick off on July 31st with a story set approximately seven months after the end of Jake’s and my [EGB virtual season](http://egbfans.weebly.com/virtual-season.html) ([on this board](http://www.gbfans.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=39227)). Again, you can expect contributions from both of us, but more from me. This time we’re basing the content on the idea of a later time slot, and using _The Simpsons_ for our guidelines. This may include episodes that Channel 4 over here in the UK decided to air at more like 8.30pm than 6.30pm, which is still very message board friendly indeed, of course. See you at the end of the month! ---
