The Simpsons

[newbie]

Does anyone love the Simpsons like I do? Ever since I started watching about a month ago (I know, I know, I got into it kinda late!), I've been addicted! I try to tape each re-run and new episode!

It's amazing how each episode cracks me up!!! And makes me smile when I've had a bad day!

My favorite episodes (from the ones that I've seen):

1) When Homer and Flanders go to Vegas, and Homer tries to teach Flanders how to become more Homer-like! haha

2) When Lisa tries to go to the art museum by herself but gets lost.

3) When Marge falls for her French bowling instructor.

4) When Bart is a "genius," but it ends up that he actually cheated on his I.Q. test...

5) The Christmas when Homer doesn't have his Christmas Bonus, and he buys doggy-toys for Maggie, saying that "she'll never know the difference". In the end, he brings home a dog, "Santa's Little Helper," as a present.

6) The episode where Krusty the Clown is accused of armed robbery, but it turns out that his jealous best friend framed him. Bart always believed in him and helped him clear his name.

Do you guys have any faves?? I'm waiting for a Simpsons' Marathon...

My fav is when Homer has to go under the knife. There's this whole dream sequence where he's in "candy land" and starts eating everything in site.

My other fav is the one where Homer ate some chili from a cook-out and ended up hallucinating.

And of course the one where Bart and Lisa corrupted the Flanders children.

When homer joined the Stonecutter.

My fave episode is the one with Sherry Bobbins(mary poppins)..Barney singin Margaritaville.."searchin for my long lost shaker of salt...OH! There it is!!"

The Simpsons are great I have a few of their figures on my desk. I have to many favorite episodes to limit it to just one. Did you know that they will be releasing the Simpsons on DVD soon? Starting with season one and then the rest of the seasons in chronological order.

The one where Bart and Milhouse drink the all-syrup squishy and then "let's go crazy Broadway style!!"

Homer, Barney, Principal Skinner & Apu rise to fame & fortune as the "BeSharps."

And any of the episodes featuring Sideshow Bob (Kelsey Grammar) or Troy McClure (Phil Hartman).

I LOOOOOOOOVE THE SIMPSONS!!!!!!!

My all time favorite episode: when they go to the Flanders' beach house, and Homer lights a firework and needs somewhere to toss it - he runs to the fridge, screams "Aaah! the beer!" chucks it into the dishwasher where it explodes, flooding the kitchen. Homer walks off "innocently" whistling and it cuts to Marge resignedly mopping the floor - sosooo funny.

Also the one where Homer is an "outsider" artist.

...Well I can't say which ones are the best but here are some that I never get sick of.

1) Prohibition episode:
Beer Baron: I'll get you beer baron.
Homer in the distance: no you won't.
B: Yes I will -
H: won't.
-> Bart also gets hammerred.

2) The episode when marge's aunt dies and she's talking about how her legend will continue in the car on the way to the funeral.
Then homer's face appears to simulate his thoughts..."yeah legend of the dog-faced woman!"
[Homer out loud] "Hahahahaha, dog faced woman!"

3) Homer works for the supervillan Mr. Scorpio.

4) Duft Gardens, homer and his big sandwich.

5) University episode reunion. "Kappa Gamma Tau, First in pranks last in grades" Yeah they make fun of us a bit, but it's still a good episode.

The Simpsons rock! The Halloween episodes are always the best. My faves are also the one where Marge gets addicted to gambling, the one where Bart gets the microphone and goes on the Flanders kids' radio and pretends to be God, the one where Otto loses his job as the busdriver (he plays Freebird on the guitar!), and the one when Bart takes Grandpa's teeth and swings around on the ceiling fan and can't go see the Itchy & Scratchy movie.

lol! I have to add to my list that episode where the Simpsons went on a trip to Florida or something, at the same time that Spring Break was going on! They showed the Kappa Gamma Taus pulling pranks on the hotel or something like that. It's the episode where Homer went psychotic (he believed the astrology that told him he would die soon), and his shrink ordered him to go on vacation!

Who's Mr. Scorpio??

33girl, or anyone else who can answer this...is SideShow Bob Krusty the Klown's best friend/??? That was an episode last night, where Sideshow Bob framed Krusty for armed robbery!!!

Uh oh Newbie, you shouldn't have mentioned the simpsons I have watched every show including the 137th anniversary special. My favs are the prohibition one, the super bowl episode, and the putt putt golf tournament. I also like the one where Bart and Milhouse sneak into the mall and stay there for a few days.

Homer- Hey we got a postcard from Bart. Sounds like he is having fun on his camping trip.
Marge- Why does it have a picture of the pottery barn on it?

Sideshow Bob was on Krustys show for a long time.

Here's a couple more of the best simpsons:

1) The episode where they all fall asleep in church...actually this is probably the best ever.

2) When Kirk and Lue Ann divorce...bart breaks a chair over homer's head when he's taking a bath - goddamn that's funny.

3) As 33Girl said any halloween episode.

4) The Nuclear power plant retreat when homer and mr. burns get trapped by the avalanche.

5) Larry Burns episode.

I'm a *HUGE* Simpsons fan - have been since they were on the Tracy Ullman show way back in the day. My 11th Birthday was a Simpsons extravaganza - I got everything from PVC figurines to video games. I still have all of it too. For my 21st birthday, my mom got me a serigraph cel featuring 20 characters + the TV (21 figures, for my 21st birthday, get it? )

There are too many episodes to pick a favorite one. But there are quotes that come up amongst my friends and I quite often:

"Who wants ice milk? We've got mint and unflavored!" "unflavored for me please" - from the episode when the kids get taken away from Marge and Homer because they are "unfit parents" For some reason, we're always saying that one when we're talking about someone/thing boring.

"Aye, no es bueno" - the bee guy

"Poisonfish...poisonfish...Tasty fish!" - from the Sushi episode. Usually comes up when we're talking about a shady restaurant.

"These gloves came free with my toilet brush!" - Dr. Nick Riviera when doing Homer's heart surgery. Someone usually says this one at random...Not sure why...

I cannot wait for the DVD series to be released - all my tapes are getting kinda decrepit after all this time

I also like that one where they go to detroit to visit there uncle and Homer designs that car.
