The greatness of The Simpsons

You probably don't need to listen to all 10 minutes.

 

So if there was a "greatness" of Seinfeld thread - do you think there would be any responses from anyone but Buck - the Flanders of SportsJournalists.com?

 

*pulls string on Al Gore doll* "You are hearing me... talk."

 

From the Monorail episode:

Marge: Homer, I have someone here that can help you.
Homer: Is it Batman?
Marge: No, it's a scientist.
Homer: Batman was a scientist.
Marge: IT'S NOT BATMAN!

 

The one where Burns brings in consultants to make over the church:


Lisa: What are they doing to the church?
Naegle: We're rebranding it. The old church was skewing pious.

 

Lingo dead?

Lingo is dead.

 

As the pig soars through the air.

Homer: It's still good. It's still good. It's just a litle airborne.

From the episode with the cult.

Homer: Look Marge, I lima bean that looks like the leader.

And my all time favorite, in a more recent episode with Sideshow Bob, while Bob is trying to blow up Lisa and Bart the paperclip from MS office shows up and says: "It looks like you are trying to build a bomb, mind if I hug my kids?"

 

Sign outside the school:

Welcome to parent-teacher night.

Share the blame

 

Lovejoy: Frank Grimes, or "Grimey," as he liked to be called, taugh us that a man can triumph over adversity. And even though Frank's agonizing struggle through life was tragically cut short, I'm sure he's looking down on this right now ...

Homer: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz... Change the channel, Marge!

 

One of the Treehouse of Horror episodes: The Homega Man.

After the nuclear blast, Homer is naked in the church dancing to Edwin Starr's "War".

Simply marvelous.

 

Hawking is great, and has been a pretty big fixture in many Futurama episodes over the years. He seems to have a fantastic sense of humor much like Al Gore has since the unpleasantness.

Anyway, my favorite newspaper-centered Homer clip.
Editor: Homer, this is great! We're going to put this on the front page... of section D13
Homer: Wooo-Hooo! Stop the presses!
Guy slams the button, stopping the presses and making a mess, Homer puts his story on the line and taps it happily.
Homer: Start the presses!
Editor: That takes four hours!
Homer: Whatever, I'll be at Moe's

 

Nanananananana Batman! I mean Leader! I love the Leader!
