@@pathutchison7688 You expect consistency on a show where everything is back to the status quo each episode, no matter what happened on the last episode, and previous episodes are very rarely referenced?
Classic Simpsons episodes are some of the best TV ever written. It was funny, clever, thought provoking, and heart warming all at the same time. I yearn for these days.
@@peternesbitt I like watching films with the commentaries on and often after watching the film in the first place, thus watching them twice! And yes the writing is brilliant. 👍
@@Cadence733 I would just... get out of the way. Like, step to the side so I'm not in his way. After all, he has a target, he knows who he's going to kill, he's not likely to just kill anyone he meets along the way.
One of my favorite scenes was the one where Ralph Wiggum was acting Washington so well at a school play that the bullies went, “this makes me want to learn more about our founding fathers” “TO THE LIBRARY!” And they all just got up and ran out.
"No this isn't Moe's Tavern, it's Boe's Cavern." Has *STRONG* Conan O'Brien energy. I don't konw if it was during a season he was writing but he's definitely used that same joke before on his shows. Look up the Hannigan the traveling salesman haha.
It was an extremely intelligent show. In some scenes where you see scientific, or mathematics formulas on a blackboard, they are legit equations. Like in Season 10, episode 2, Homer nearly disproved Pierre de Fermat's last theorem. In the end it was wrong, but the writers took enough care to make so that the discrepancy is so little, that if you use a regular calculator(Which can only round to so many decimal places) , it will seem as though the equation is valid. It's mind boggling how much care went into this show in the past. I think most people don't realize the full extent of how brilliant it was. I stopped watching after around season 15 or 16 though. They started out with a strong race horse, then worked it till till it died, then continued to whip it, hoping to make it run some more. Now its body is just dust, but they are still beating it.
@@baconburgeronly3089 I think the implication is that social media has ruined television, because now everyone tweets/posts/shares every complaint they have and shows can no longer do anything edgy or offensive. The Simpsons famously had to change voice actors DECADES LATER because of this.
Old Homer wasn’t stupid, was an angry person yes, but normal intelligence, they dumb it up through the years However many people don’t see the inner joke -yes it’s an old video maybe 70s -yes it’s short scene quite repeating itself -but no one talks about that they put the video to pretend they work however even in the video they just mock around 😅😅
1:05 - The Simpsons is still one of the few places to go for a good Doppler Effect gag. Whenever I see a mob forming my mind goes, “you stole the money fROM THE CHURCH COLLEction plate!”
dont worry! i have a plan. i saw this in a movie about a bus that had to SPEED around the city…keeping its SPEED over 50 and if its SPEED dropped?! it would EXPLODE. i think it was called “🙌🏻The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down🙌🏻”
A brilliant, and possibly overlooked, part of The Simpsons is the various neon signs that are shown from time to time. The one at 2:41 is my all-time favourite.
The writing then was absolutely the perfect blend of off the wall, hilarious, wholesome, bizarre and absolutely dark, even all at once at times. So glad I grew up with these guys 😂
@@ACDZ123 coffee was brought to Australia in the first fleet's.. not WW2. It first became popular in the 1870s due to Parisian coffee shops in Melbourne, WW2 had an influence yes to the culture but they did not introduce coffee nor the expresso machine in Australia which was first introduced in 1928 here in Bourke Street's Café Florentino.
Yep, full coffee snob culture. But I feel they don't actually independently love coffee. It's coz it's seen as cool, and gives them a feeling of status. Aussies (like many places) superficially want to elevate themselves up the pecking order. (Like all the dudes that work out at the gym, to be able to look ripped in a nipple-showing singlet at Stereosonic / Good Vibes / *insert crappy music festival*) Lol.
You gotta feel a little bad for Jimbo, getting dumped there. He's a teenager and a knife wielding adult barged into the house and threatened him. I don't think anyone would take that super well.
