A fiercely determined band of pioneers leaves Maryland after misinterpreting a passage in the bible. Their destination, New Sodom. What a criminally underrated line.
The deal with this is that colonists during that time were leaving England to get back to the scripture of the bible. They were called puritans and the Simpsons is connecting them misinterpreting a scripture to Sodom and Gamorrah from the bible that were destroyed because of their sin.
@@SexeyEllyx0 they probably thought the story of Sodom and Gomorrah from the bible sounded good; they were 2 cities destroyed for being wicked. Sodom is where the term "sodomy" (anal sex) comes from. I presume they travelled in order to be allowed to $@#& each other in the ass. Edit: apparently they're still trying to get rid of the last of the anti sodomy laws in Maryland to this day.
@@stevedonaghey6436do you know there is no news channel, no documentary series anything like as informative as the comments section on RU-vid. Thanks man
@@stevedonaghey6436 is it a reference to somethign in the exorcist? that's so funny, there's so many instances in the simpsons where i didn't realize it was a reference to something until i happen to see the source material 😂
Never realized how on point Lovejoy's bible quote is: Homer builds his new faith on his crazy dream which is not reliable enough to have such a big implication to his life
I love the amount of effort that went into the Springfield show to make it look bad. The bison is animated as if it's an inanimate object being moved by other people, and it cuts to stock footage of a man "actually" riding a bison which you can tell because the guy in the stock footage doesn't have a mustache.
I love the chaos music when the whole town loses their minds and starts smashing things or when homer is dreaming about being an ape. Someone should make a compilation of all those scenes.
Marge’s line had been on the Internet - including in the RU-vid comments - for years before that guy came along and claimed to have invented the electric hammer.
At 8:31. Not gonna lie, with the very nasty war against science and scientists being waged by the social media mobs nowadays, "The Simpsons" definitely got this bit right about how moronic Americans can get. Love that this show was so prophetic about so many things inherent in American society. LOL.
"You want me to show this to the cat? And have the cat tell you what it is? Cause the cats gonna get it. It's DIGNITY! Don't you know DIGNITY when you see it?!" AND that's how you end up sleeping in a racing car and not in a big bed with your wife. 🤣
I like Homer's description of God: "Perfect teeth, nice smell, class act all the way." If I ever get to heaven and i'm walking with god, and he smells good, he is gonna get mad because im going to giggle just a little bit, thinking "He does smell good!".
Can't believe The Simpsons finally decided to let a few clips live on the Internet without suing everyone! The last decade they made a show that was worth watching was in the 90s!
6:25 "I hear you !" I use the old "I hear you" line whenever I'm paying attention or whenever I couldn't hear what someone said. It actually works pretty well !
9:51 reminds me of when a photo of Hideo Kojima was used in some European news broadcast as the picture of the guy who assassinated Shinzo Abe, because he was wearing a hat with a communist star, and the killer apparently had ties to far left extremism.
5:11 Dear god! What an over done reaction! Lol. I could image the illustrators back then “here boss, how’s this for confused?” “NO! It needs MORE confused… MORE!!”
I wonder why Gentle Ben is the only violent bear in Springfield. I guess there was that one that mauled Homer a little bit. I wonder if it was the same bear.
Homer used to have some moments of actual genius, exploiting Ralph was one of them, and his advice to Bart does work, and is true, always be complimentary, make sure to think of something sweet to say!
