That is great.
Probably mentioned on here somewhere but Talking Simpsons is a fantastic podcast, going through every episode in order. An absolute highlight at the moment since they're going through Season 3.

Oh wow they're on the same episode as Four Finger Discount.

I've been following Talking Simpsons for a while since it was recommended here sometime during Season 2. I've also been rewatching Season 3, keeping ahead of them so the episode is fresh in my mind when they talk about it.
Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
So I finally figured out how to access the Simpsons World website to finally get around to watching this show (watched it a bit as kid before my parents "banned it" one day) but every time I'm put off by the fact I have to watch that "I don't expect perfection...well, actually, I do!" commercial.
I got a few episodes under my belt including fan favorite Marge the Monorail---so, is it controversial for me to say this episode was a bit off in places? Like the random Axel F theme and the batman gag seemed like something more modern Simpsons would do, though it was still entertaining enough.

"Oh Homer, you're one big bag of sugar!"
"Thanks...you did say sugar, right?"
Also, rewatching Black Widower, I wonder if Selma's money from investments could be a motive in Sideshow Bob attempting to kill her.

I forgot to ask the thread to identify the tune he walks off to in this clip for me.
What's that tune please, thread?
The Sanford and Son theme?
That's it, thanks. About all I know about Sanford & Son is that it was based on the British Steptoe & Son. Here's the theme tune for it which I find works great for footage of people walking.
Steve Martin's performance was so great in that episode. That man's a treasure.

Yeah, in hindsight, Homer was wise to burn that Bill Cosby book.

The first season is a lot funnier and watchable than I remember it being.

My feelings on Season 1 vary by episode. It was inconsistent (which makes sense as they were still finding their voice) but the gems hold up extremely well... most notably Moaning Lisa, Life on the Fast Lane and Bart the General. Swartzwelder's scripts were exceptional right out of the gates.
never noticed bart also wearing a hat

I hadn't seen Life on the Fast Lane in many years but I enjoyed it a lot. Jaques was hilarious and this bit:
slayed me.

God, that early bart animation.

Can't be... he's in the Flanders bedroom with Lisa. Must be Lester.
Is that Bart over there?

I don't have a problem with that segment outside of the fact that it's lazy. It's a scene ripped directly from Season 24's A Tree Grows in Springfield except they replaced Homer's MyPad with a phone and had Dan re-record his dialogue. Everything else is identical.
(Well, okay... I also have a problem with Homer's callous endangering of his son's life. But the writers seem to think that gag's hilarious.)

The show hasn't had a good track record at the Emmys of late having lost in this category 6 out of the past 7 years (and not even being nominated during the 7th). They last won for Season 19's Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind (which it deserved).
I wouldn't take anything for granted seeing how Holidays of Future Passed lost to an episode of The Penguins of Madagascar (written by Bob Schooley & Mark McCorkle of Kim Possible fame). I can see Halloween of Horror getting bypassed for the series finale of Phineas and Ferb as a sort of lifetime achievement award even if that episode is widely considered to be underwhelming.
I'm a little cheesed that Gravity Falls never even mustered so much as a nomination during its run.

The ending of Bart Gets an F is hard to watch, and I think it's because of how real Bart's breakdown seems. Even in more emotional moments in the series crying typically feels cartoonish but Bart losing it in Bart Gets an F really does feel like you're watching a kid who normally has it together completely unraveling in front of you and as such it's really heartbreaking.

There's an emotional core to some of those Season 2 episodes (Bart Gets an F, One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish, Lisa's Substitute, Bart vs. Thanksgiving, The Way We Was) that they've rarely come close to hitting since. Of course, the show got funnier after that and came into its own comedically but I do occasionally miss some of the rawness of those earlier episodes in terms of giving weight to a storyline.
You'll find some of the best voice acting in the entire series in that early run as well. That's certainly the case for Nancy Cartwright.
The annual Comic-Con panel to preview the next season was on Saturday. Very little of note was discussed hence there's no need for a new thread. Just the usual rehash of special guest voices and plots built around modern trends that come off terribly uninteresting (and is something South Park does much better anyhow).
