One of my favorite epsidoes is where Bart plays Lisa in Hockey, there are too many classic lines in that episode.
That's Lisa on Ice from season 6. It's the funniest episode in the show's history. Watching it the first time it's funny, but with every repeated viewing it gets funnier and funnier. I lose it every time Marge holds out Milhouse's teeth.

Speaking of Kent Brockman and "Lisa on Ice", I've always loved the Action News segment:

Announcer: It's "Channel Six Action News." And now, here's your Action Anchor, Kent Brockman.

Kent: [jumping in, panting] Hello, I'm Kent Brockman! Our top stories tonight: a tremendous EXPLOSION...in the price of lumber, President Reagan DIES...his hair, plus Garry Trudeau and his new musical comedy revue. But first! Let's check the death count from the killer storm bearing down on us like a shotgun full of snow.

Weatherman: Well, Kent, as of now the death count is zero. But it IS ready to shoot right up.
Kent: Oh my God. [shakes fist at the sky] Damn you snow!

<3 Good Morning Burger


and <3 this thread!

Does anyone remember the whole Good Morning Burger commercial?

edit: “We take eighteen ounces of sizzling ground beef, and soak it in rich, creamery butter, then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg. We call it the Good Morning Burger.”

Its not the animation that lost its charm it was the writing. Face it, when Conan left the show it was a steady decline and was unable to recover.
My favorite episode is still a toss-up between the Cape Fear spoof, and the Hank Scorpio episode. Classic Simpsons. How come no caps of Homer's car? PEACE.

This thread is honestly one of the most emotional things I've ever encountered on the internet. The flow of nostalgia is just huge. I fucking loved this show.

Seriously, those pictures are bringing back some serious memories of my younger days :(

So many classic episodes. Makes me angry what they turned the Simpsons into. Now its all slapstick comedy and cheap jokes. I miss the good old days when the show actually had a decent story and plot.
 
I love The Springfield Files episode, so many classic quotes;

Moe: "Ah, jeez, it's the fed's - come on, lets get him back to Seaworld"

AlienBurns: "I bring you Love"
Dr. Hibbert: "Is that the kind of love between a man and a women? Or the love of a man for a cuban cigar?"
Lenny: "It's bringing love! Don't let it get away!"
Carl: "Break it's legs!"
Lisa: "You want an alien? This is your alien!" *shines flashlight*
AlienBurns: "Hello children, I bring you love."
Willy: "Argh, it's a monster! Kill it! KILL IT!"
Smithers: "It's not a monster, it's Mr Burns!"
Willy: "Awww, it's Mr Burns...KILL IT! KILL IT!"

Squeaky Voiced Teen: "And so concludes our tale. I'm Leonard Nimoy. Good night, and keep watching the skis. Uh, skies."

Dr Nick: "Don't worry, this won't hurt a bit - until I jam this down your throat!"
Dr Nick: "The best part was when he gave me his money"

Mulder: "Mr Simpson, we want you to recreate your every move the night you saw the alien."
Homer: "The evening began at the gentlemen's club, where we were discussing Wittgenstein over a game of backgammon."
Scully: "Mr. Simpson, it's a felony to lie to the FBI."
Homer: "We were sitting in Barney's car eating packets of mustard. Happy?"

Mulder: "Wait a minute, Scully. What's the point of this test?"
Scully: "No point. I just figured he could stand to lose some weight."
Mulder: "His jiggling is almost hypnotic"
Scully: "Yes, it's like a lava-lamp"

Homer: "I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to speed around the city, keeping its speed over fifty, and if its speed dropped, the bus would explode! I think it was called 'The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down.'"

Mulder: "Are we alone in the universe? Impossible. When you consider the wonders that exist all around us... voodoo priests of Haiti, the Tibetan numerologists of Appalachia, the unsolved mysteries of Unsolved Mysteries... The truth it out there."

Also, this bit always cracks me up;

Mulder: "Agents Mulder & Scully...FBI"

[Homer's fantasy of winning the lottery]
Lenny: Hey, Homer! Whatd'ya do, get a haircut or somethin'?
[Homer is revealed to be 12 feet tall & made of gold]
Homer: Look closer, Lenny!
Lenny: Oh I see it, you're the biggest man in the world now. And you're covered in gold!
Homer: Fourteen karat gold!
[Heads to Mr. Burns' office]
Homer: Take a hike, Boss. I'm running things now!
Mr. Burns: All hail King Homer!
[Fantasy ends showing Homer encrusted with jewels and wearing a crown, standing over the city and laughing evilly.]

Ha I love season 4 ( I'm trying to make a top 10; it's too damn hard)


Mr. Plow

08874-2.jpg





Insurer: This place Moe's you were at, just before the accident... this is a business of some kind?
Homer's Brain: Don't tell him you were at a bar... but what else is open at night?
Homer: It's a pornography store. I was buying pornography.
Homer's Brain: Heh, heh! I would've never thought of that!


Homer: Adam West! Hey, kids - Batman!
Lisa: Dad, that's not the real Batman!
Adam West: Of course I'm Batman. See? [Pulls out a photo] Here's a picture of me with Robin.
Bart: Who the hell's Robin?
Adam West: Oh, I guess you're only familiar with the new Batman movies. Michelle Pfeiffer...ha! The only true Catwoman is Julie Newmar, Lee Merriwether or Eartha Kitt. And I didn't need a molded plastic suit to improve my physique [Taps chest] Pure West. and how come Batman doesn't dance anymore, remember the Bat-tussi? [he starts dancing the Bat-tussi]

9F07AdamWest.jpg



[After the Mr. Plow commercial has aired]
Homer: Well, John Q. Driveway has our number. Now we play the waiting game...
[Several seconds pass...]
Homer: Ah, the waiting game sucks. Let's play Hungry Hungry Hippos!

I love the animation of the camera swaying to the movement of the helicopter from this scene:

picture1bfee0.png


"This is hour fifty-seven of our live, 'round the clock coverage of the Simpson estate. Remember to tune in tonight at 8 o'clock for highlights of tonight's visual, including when the garbage man came, and when Marge put the cat out—possibly because it was harassed, we don't know."

Someone mentioned Hank Scorpio before; his maniacal laugh behind the flamethrower was really, really great, too.


"Of course there is no way to see into the Simpsons home without some kind of infrared heat sensitive camera...so lets turn it on.

Now this technology is new to me, but I'm pretty sure that's Homer Simpsons in the oven rotating slowly. His body temperatue has risen to oven 400 degrees, he is literaly stewing in his own juices."

And in that same episode Home blames everything he does wrong on some guy name Tibor.
bggrthnjsus said:
:lol and when smithers is showing marge to her office, 'tibor misplaced the key to your office, but you can jimmy it open with a credit card'
Not sure if it's also in the same episode, but at some point Homer complains about his supervisor, Tibor.

"Come on Jimmy, let's take a peek at the killing floor."
"Ohhh!"
"Don't let the name throw you Jimmy. It's not really a floor. It's more of a steel grating that allows material to sluice through so it can be collected and exported."
 
Which episode is it that begins with the robot visiting Bart's class to tell them about the science exhibit?

"Hello, children of Earth."
"What planet are you from?"
*pause*
"Earth."

:lol

I've also tried and failed to figure out which episode this scene comes from: Homer decides to leave work early and escapes through Sector G, where he meets (and kills) a giant spider.

[Homer tries to flee the Power Plant. A giant spider blocks his way. He consults his map...]
Homer: To overcome the Spiders curse, simply quote a Bible verse...ummm..."Thou shall not..."
[He gives up, picks up a rock and throws it at the spider, killing it.]

It's the one where Homer is ducking out early to go to the Duff brewery with Barney I think.

"Hey, is that Princess Di?!
Oh...it's just a pile of rags."

Season 4, episode 16: Duffless
 
I can't find any pictures from the scene I'm looking for but I love the episode "Skinner's sense of Snow". Everything about that episode my brother and I find hilarious.

I'm sure I'll butcher the quote but I love when Homer and Ned crash the car into a fire hydrant...

Flanders: Homer, I think we hit something.
Homer: I hope it was Flanders!
:lol :lol :lol

I love that episode so much.
