AUSSIES REACT to THE SIMPSONS Australian Characters | Australian Accent Tips 

As an Aussie, I want our Dollar to be called, Dollaredoos! 😂

The Prime Minister chilling in a donut drinking a beer is the best part. As an Aussie I found it bloody hilarious!

My favorite part of the episode is when the marine guard slugs homer twice. Lmao

I love the “booting” punishment because I always understood that to be a literal interpretation of “A kick up the arse”

I think Aussies are the people most like Americans. We are both the illegitimate children of England, speak unpretentious English, are friendly, fun-loving, and drink inordinate amounts of beer. My Dad was an MP stationed in Sydney during the last war and said he had a great time with you all!

Bloody isn’t considered a swear in America. We think of it as a version of “fricking” too, we just don’t use it.

As someone who is Australian I actually did crack up laughing at the whole prime minister sitting in the Creek naked with a beer as it is a very hilarious sorted thing that obviously would not happen in reality

I see you've played Knifey Spoony before.

I'm an American. When I first saw this episode, I didn't know the Australian father was saying dollarydoos. I thought he was saying "dollar reduce." I thought maybe that was an Australian way of saying that a certain amount of money has been deducted from his bank account or something. I thought maybe they say "reduce" instead of "deduction," for some reason.

I remember this episode coming out as a kid and everyone saying "but it's an emergenciieee" in response to any no lol 😆 from Perth Aus.

They missed the part where Bart goes on trial.

I'm surprised you didn't cover the bit about where the cane toads are being found. "These bloody things are everywhere. They're in the lift, in the lorry, in the bond wizard, and all over the malonga gilderchuck."

Don't think I've seen this all the way through before. Don't know how Pete understood their attempt at an Australian accent! They threw in Cockney, Scottish and pretty much everything else BUT Australian 😂

Bloody is not a curse word in America

Yes! I love this episode because of the ridiculousness. The kid at the start sounds like he’s trying to be South African and then changes to some kinda of Dickens character.

Don’t get upset if you are from Australia, the Simpson make fun of everyone and everything that’s why the show is funny 😄

never thought watching a reaction video could be so entertaining

I can't believe l've been watching "The Simpsons" nearly every day, since l was in my mid-teen years, when it first aired on TV here in Australia in February of 1991. I said back then this show was gonna last a very long time, and l was right! Anyway, I must have watched each episode 30 times by now over the years, and there are over 600 episodes of it! l'm not sick of it at all! I still love it! And l can't wait to see the brand new episodes of the show in the years to come 😍😁👍

American here. Sure the Simpson's may not have nailed Australia exactly, but they haven't figured out America yet either lol. The parody and stereotypes is what has help them stay on for 30+ years.

I'm from Ireland so yes I have seen the Irish simpsons episodes a number of times, usually played around St paddys day You can Instantly tell the fake accents because americans can't tell the difference between irish and scottish acccents, no we do not say lassie or laddie, we say lad but I never heard anybody say lass unless they were being ironic "I'm a wee irish lass"

I enjoyed the fact you guys took it with a grain of salt and even found it legitimately funny. I have seen other countries reactions to the simpsons taking a stab at them. While the took it with a grain of salt, they didn't find it as funny

What did you think of that part where Homer kept jumping back and forth between the borders of Australia and America at the embassy where the marine then punched him where he marine says here in America we don't tolerate that kind of crap followed by a sir at the end?

When I was a kid I thought Australians called coffee beer

The way the bartender hasn't heard of coffee indicates that The Simpsons were calling the Aussies alcoholics.

“Americans don’t have any self-deprecating humor.” If “The Simpsons” isn’t a primary source of exactly that in the US, then I’m missing something.

The late chef Anthony Bourdain would approve of your reactions. He did go to Melbourne and Sydney on his show: no reservations, and said Australia has the worst tourist industry. He pointed out that the country’s mascots had to be the crocodile hunter and crocodile Dundee. I would like to see an “Aussies react to finding Nemo”, if not, maybe a reaction to either Anthony Bourdain or Andrew zimmern’s Australian episodes.

5:20 so Bart is responsible for introducing the cane toads in The Simpsons universe

Great video, guys. I can say that the Simpsons assumes its audience is sharp enough to realize that the Australian stereotypes presented in the episode are Hollywood & pop-culture inventions. The writers are just having fun with the stereotypes that already existed... and played them for laughs.

I didn't know as a kid, but I felt terrible when I first learned "a dingo ate my baby" really happened. Poor Azaria Chamberlain :'( American TV's been milking that punchline for decades anytime there's a joke about Australia.

Australians are cheerful, like an Englishman that just got out of prison.

As an american, I cannot tell the difference between aussies and brits unless it's made very clear

One additional comment on the statue of the first Prime Minister: He bears a strong family resemblance to the Simpson's character 'Snake', the consummate criminal/ jailbird.

No bloody is not a swear word in America.

Disparaging the boot is a bootable offense!

You two great persons when talking only to each other would be the best video with a nice Aussie accent < 3

This wasn't meant to be an accurate portrayal of Australians and Australia. Its an obviously parody done for comedic purposes. We know that's not how you actually sound in real life. That's why it's funny. The Simpsons itself is a parody of Americans and America. We think its funny

900 DOLLARYDOOS!!! still cracks me the f up man 😂 I'm Canadian but having lived amongst Aussies that accent really lives rent free in my brain.

I literally am taking a break from my Fort Worth Texas essay for urban theory to watch this and Fort Worth comes up in the fosters advertisement shown in the video. Full circle.

I went to Australia, this is all accurate apart from the Fosters

Everyone loves the Simpsons when they're in Springfield goofing on American stereotypes. They're less amused when the Simpsons visit theirs, lol.

4:38 Evil Angels (AKA a cry in the dark)

This particular Australian kid has spent a lot of time in South Africa.

Lol love y'all 😂😂👍❤

5:50 I used to do the glottal stop as a kid - but then again, my dad is from England. 6:21 When I was a kid, I didn't even know there were other reasons to start a colony.

Me and my mum's boyfriend absolutely LOVE crocodile Dundee 1 and 2 greetings from the UK 🇬🇧🍻

4:43 'A Cry In the Dark.' Yes that was a real tragedy.

At the time that it came out, it was fairly obvious that it was referencing the caning of the American Michael Fay in Singapore. I guess it was safer to rely on some lazy stereotypes of Australia instead of Singapore. The Simpsons didn't seem so edgy after that.

Not quite a whole episode but another Australian scene I remember is this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SVw8YMA-Iqc.html

Love your account,

I am American and wonder about the accents. Australia is a big country. Here in the States we have 100s of accents. Do you guys have different accents in different parts of the country?

yep, those tropes are what makes it so funny. hahaha.

To be fair, that episode did have some jokes at America's expense, like the "Made in USA" motor on the embassy gate breaking down, or the Bart and Homer's lack of knowledge about the rest of the world at the beginning of the episode.

Anyone know the background music? When paused?

Fosters gets made also here in the UK in Manchester

The episode of The Simpsons is called "Bart vs. Australia"

Every time I’ve played, “Knifey-Spoony”, I’ve won. I used a fork!!! 🇦🇺

i saw that when starbucks coffee finally branched to Australia it flopped pretty hard over there was this the reason why? 8:28

To be fair, around 99% of the rest of the series is all about making fun of American culture even harder than they made fun of Australians. Heck, it was eventually revealed that Springfield was also built by a criminal who tried to murder George Washington.

I'm from America. As in the US technically both continents are American. But whatever. Bloody is not a swear word here. The only time you'll even hear us say it is if we're actually talking about something being bloody literally. Or we're faking a British accent to be ironic or funny. That's as far as I'm aware only a swear word in the UK and I'm assuming Ireland. We just know it's a swear word in the UK. Our swear words are the usual. Co$#, a$$, Fu#$, sh#$, cu#@, tit$, and basically any ethnic slur you can think of. If you want examples you can watch the South Park movie or look up George Carlin's dirty words you can't say on television. But bloody has never been one of them. As far as I know it wasn't even a curse word before the American revolution. American English and British English had started to split off generations before that. I don't even understand why it's a curse word for the UK other than I'm guessing a meaning of intent that it's being used like a standard curse word like the one's I mentioned. And even then a few like fu#@ aren't even understood as to where it came from other than a probably made up because know one really knew where it truly came from "fornication under command (of the) King" excuse everyone keeps using. The rest are just the literal descriptive terms of something like sh@# for instance. Although fu#@ has become a description for sex so it does fit. But still. Bloody is also a description but it's not describing something disgusting or vulgar in the same category as sh@# or fu#$ or cu#@. And is the mildest form of something disgusting or vulgar. So how it became on the same level as fu$# or sh#$ I can't figure out. And as a country confuses us Americans or "Yanks" as some of you call us. Which btw in the United States is meant to describe someone from the North of the East side of America by people from the South East side. It's a half term of endearment and half insult. I think Southerner's don't think we notice that but we do. As far as Australia, New Zealand and the UK we don't take it personally. It's just a thing because of the 1900's and it stuck. Not that we aren't responsible anyway we're the one's who made that word up. And honestly as an American. Unless they're a historian. We don't know wtf Yankee even means. Only the context it's used if it's by someone outside the United States or if it's someone from the South. To 99% of us Yankee Doodle Dandy doesn't actually mean a gd thing. We just know it started during the revolutionary war. And then became a slur for people from the North during the civil war. Kind of like Reb would be to anyone in the south United States. 🤷🏼‍♂️. Oh that's another to add to the swear list that's basically all of the United States but especially in the south.... God da#@. Cursing God with GD is pretty much the worst one you can say here. You say bloody and the response you'll get is someone looking at you to see if you're bleeding. Then probably check themselves to see if they're bleeding if they see you aren't. That is unless you're doing it in a bad British or Scottish accent. Which we will do and half the time sounding Australian and a lot of the time mixing all three together. But since we're purposely trying to do a bad accent ironically we usually don't care that it's bad. I'm guessing that The Simpsons, and probably most cartoon comedies are either purposely screwing it up or don't care that they are. Or they're really bad at it and actually trying. We're not exactly great at accents. Everyone else usually mimics them better including Australia. We're better at American accents. Most of us here in the north can do a semi decent southern accent if we really try because most of our family is from the South or have southern relatives. Although usually it's purposely done bad and extremely exaggerated on purpose for comedic effect. But there's several different southern accents for almost every southern state. And for the northern states like say Boston and New York, New Jersey, Minnesota and in the Midwest where I'm from I'm told we have an accent when people from new York and the north east hear some of our words. It's not what I would consider an accent and what's called a regular American accent but there's words and phrases that we use and don't even think about that apparently other Americans notice. Kind of like I've heard there is in Australia about the difference between a Sidney and Melbourne accent. Anyway point is bloody isn't and never has been a curse word here and only used as a literal description or if we're doing a very bad British accent. And trust me as much as we make fun of pretty much.......everyone. We definitely make fun of ourselves and self depreciate. To some of us it's damn near a language and constantly make fun of ourselves individually as our sense of humor. If you watch a lot of our television and entertainment you'll definitely notice. Especially if you watch Family Guy and especially South Park. The South Park movie alone and the Team America World Police movie also made by the creators of South Park are just a very tiny example of it. Frankly I don't know where the idea that we don't make fun of ourselves or have a sense of humor comes from. We do it constantly. Frankly if you jokingly made fun of our accent or said something deprecating to our face and wasn't malicious about it we'd smirk and laugh. So I don't get people thinking we don't. We have that stereotype for the French and Scandinavian countries and Germany and Italy. That they don't have a sense of humor. It's especially a stereotype about the French and Germans. We don't about the British they just assume we don't understand their humor 🤷🏼‍♂️. Oh and the Russians. I'm pretty sure it's a stereotype that they don't have a sense of humor either. I'd like to think most of us here aren't that stupid. But I honestly don't know 🤔. If you really want to know what we think of you Aussie's. Frankly I think that we are closer and more like your people and the Kiwi's than any other countries. We're both warm and welcoming. Mostly lol. Open and with everything out there loud and proud and wanting to connect with everyone we meet. Stranger or otherwise. So what some other reserved and what other countries call "loud". In both personality and apparently our speech. The way we both speak comes from a different part of the throat and the way we use our tongues (ha, ha). So to everyone our voices sound loud when we're just speaking normally. For lack of a better phrase we don't get butt hurt by every single little thing. And we're not as my generation puts it born around 1980 "puss#@$". You're tough, warm and nice and smile and laugh because it's who you are. We respect that. See ourselves in your people more than basically anyone else. I really don't know how else to put it. We really do love your people. I don't know why you think we don't have a sense of humor 🤨 or aren't self deprecating cause that's way off lol. Maybe you've only been getting some New York a-holes or people from Los Angeles there or something or only dealing with wanna be Donald Trump's on business trips. I dunno 🤷🏼‍♂️. But make fun of us and see how quick we laugh 😏. The only example I have of that is Farscape so you'll have to excuse my lack of experience. But it was hilarious. Anyway keep being you. America loves you for it. Aussie Aussie Aussie!!! 👍

I love the simpsons australia episode but at 8:28 when you ordered a cofee in germany .

5:00 That's a bloody outrage it is!🤣😂

In the tv sitcom Seinfeld episode “The Stranded” (Season 3 episode 10) Elaine played by Julia Louis Dreyfus makes a crude reference to a dingo eating a baby. Which is cruel because a good woman went to prison and suffered terribly for years after a dingo snatched and killed her daughter on the night of August 17th, 1980.

Hilarious my Aussie Friends

this episode also had mad max references

Hey Mr Prime Minister !😂😂😂

I thought it was a reference to guy guy who let 13 rabbits loose in Australia for hunting

lit ep b4 today the last time i saw this ep was over a decade ago

Australians sure are an attractive people.

Stuff from the episode that didn't make the clips does feature a lot of more self-depricating jokes but it certainly aims at at least the stereotypes without digging much deeper. Unless there was a boot, I dunno

I ❤ The Simpsons, l've been watching The Simpsons almost daily since 1991.

I haven't been to the great continent of Australia in 24 years and I only have information from Perth/Freemantle and Hobart but VB was most popular in Perth. Swan was also tops. Hobart was Cascade. VB as well. Never saw Foster's and for good reason.

I was sure Australia didn’t have bidets. Bidets are a continental Europe thing - particularly France and Italy of course. Bloody is not considered a curse in the US.

One of my favorite episodes! Loved hearing your comments. But the music is kinda distracting.

So funny! You should react to Conan goes to Australia :)

Como peruano como disfrute este capítulo. Aun me jode perder el repechaje😂

That's not a true troll. Water actually swirls the other way, in the southern hemisphere.

OMG THE DROPBEAR

They totally roast American culture in The Simpsons all the time

Simpsons main theme is mocking America and Americans.

What you refer to as a "Koala"... isn't that a fiendish dire Drop Bear?

"C-O." "B-E."

here arguing with my gf why do in bluey the animated cartoon they say buckdollar ..I told her they don't say that in Australia she said yes they do ..lmao good grieff ..

The Simpsons didn't feature The Emu War or "Shrimp on the barbie" in this epsode.

This episode is intentionally mocking US media stereotypes of Australia, but especially Paul Hogan’s caricature of his own country. No one drinks Fosters in America either BTW.

No country is safe from The Simpsons.

Pete sounds like glenn maxwell

Just curious. If Australians don't drink Foster's, what is the beer of choice in Australia for native Australians??

No not ask for Fosters, you will get laughed at :)

As an American I have this to say to any Australians in the comment section. We love you, we respect you, and we value our foreign friendship. However, if you try to boot me I will drop my pants so quick and moon you in the name of freedom! 🇺🇸🦅🫡🥹

This video is like +12 hours ahead

You should show him the Australian dub

We Americans use the commonwealth as a mirror through which we can poke fun at ourselves. That's why we've traditionally imported Canada's best comedians.

Sound mixing is off. Can't really hear her over the sonic wallpaper. Oops, I meant music.

cry in the Night . Was the movie with Meryl Streep

Disney+ didn't put season 32 of The Simpsons on their Australian app today. Instead, they put the first episode of Season 33. Shame, l wanted to watch season 32 first then season 33.

The convict one is true.

i dont even think they were trying to do accurate accents...they don't care enough...they have so much work to do and this is from the mid 90's pre windows and public access to internet...they just studied and tried their best shot

Bloody isn't a normal word in the us, anyone who uses it is too into British accents.

You didn't include "Knifey Spooney"!

Don't forget the Australian accent sounded British especially from the 10 pound 💷 poms watch old videos from 1960's from abc or whatever and its all british accents
