You didn't really animate it. The fact that you just took something pre-existing and pasted it into a TTS app and then just slapped a picture of a clock reading a book is disturbing, since this made it up to the front-page.

The best dramatic cartoon I've seen on Newgrounds.

The style and timing seems perfect. Keep making more of these.

The microphone quality at many points was poor.
You also say that there are "no sex jokes, no bloody humor" when there is in fact many bloody scenes along with the sexual joke from the whole MJ deal.
I'd be better if you'd buy a new microphone and turn the input volume down while recording.
Also: when working with pixels, instead of having shabby lines created via flash edit them in with pixel-art so it looks more natural.

I'm just giving this a '5' because at the end the only thing I could say was "what".

The only thing it lacks is good voice ancting and equipment. Although, the female voice wasn't shabby.
All the male voices sounded understated. In additon, the accent for the lobster was poor. You could improve wildly on your show by getting expensive mics (at least 75 bucks) and maybe new voice actors.

I think you would get an even higher rating if you would've showed what happens to flashes that make it (in a metaphorical sense).

A lot of flash artists make the mistake of using title-like introduction credits (no background) make the flash look professional. I think most would agree that it looks somewhat lazy, and is used to replace real content. Don't release something until you have something worth watching.
Get more sprites, get more backgrounds.. It's already there for you, it doesn't take much work to compile it all if you're just going for a run-of-the-mill sprite flash.

Seems like a thinly veiled advertisement in itself. Not to mention the actual content leads out of the site. Not cool.
Please try to keep the content within Newgrounds.
I am only giving you a 0/10 due to the above.
The loop was okay (4/10).

At first it seemed great, animation and style similar to Tim Burton's "Vincent". It was a decent 7/10 until you ruined it with a happy, nonetheless cliche ending.
Also: Next time try to use a more original soundtrack. The last song actually made me laugh due to how overplayed it is.
I'd recommend studying up on Vincent Price's relation to Tim Burton for inspiration (you seem to be heading that way).
