So it is. My bad!
Saw a new one yesterday thought it was ok laughed a good few times but its lots its overall apeal. First episode of simpsons ive watched in a long long time.
My favourite:
Homer (in silly voice): Hello. My name is Mr Burns, I believe you have a letter for me.
Post office guy: OK Mr Burns, what's your first name?
Homer: I don't know.
Great plan Bart(!)
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
From the Cape Fear episode. As Bart is receiving threatening letters from Sideshow Bob, "The Thompsons" are enlisted in a witness relocation programme.
Agent: Now, when I say, "Hello, Mr. Thompson," and press down on your foot, you smile and nod.
Homer: No problem.
Agent: Hello, Mr. Thompson! (presses on Homer's foot)
Homer: (whispers to other agent) I think he's talking to you.
Quoting years at random since 1975
Yeah it was alright, good to see what happened to Lurleen.
Well done that man!
I'm not sure what happens now, but I think pineapple stu implodes or something.

more bass
My fav' bit of all time comes from the ''Franchise/Pretzel Wagon'' episode
Marge goes to the "Picture Perfect" seminar.
Host: Now, folks, I don't wanna alarm ya, but scientists say forty
percent of America's pictures... are hanging crooked.
[the audience gasp in shock]
Yep, it's true. And I hear you asking: "Well, who's gonna
straighten out all these artistic abominations?" Your friends?
A neighbor? Those fat cats at Washington? [chuckles] Good
luck. Hey, you know, maybe no one'll notice! Maybe the problem
with ju-u-u-st fix itself.
Marge: Now you're the one who's being naive.
Man: Okay. Fair enough. But you sound like you're ready to become
your own boss in the exciting world of frame-nudging! Yes, for
a minimal franchise fee, you'll receive a pair of straightening
gloves, a cannister of wall lubricant and a booklet of the most
commonly asked questions you will hear, including: "Who are you?"
and "What are you doing here?"
The bit about the booklet just tops a very funny scene IMO, the words to that part run through my head about 5 times a day, stuck i tell ya!!
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D
Some of my favourite Homer quotes
Homer: There's your giraffe, little girl.
Ralph Wiggum: I'm a boy.
Homer: That's the spirit. Never give up.
Homer: How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?
Marge: That's because you were drunk!
Homer: And how
Homer: From now on, there are three ways to do things: the right way, the wrong way, and the Max Power way.
Bart: Isn't that just the wrong way?
Homer: Yeah, but faster!
And then Mr.Burns bets lines
Mr.Burns: Quick Smithers. Bring the mind eraser device!
Smithers:You mean the revolver, sir?
Mr.Burns: Precisely.
Mr. Burns: Smithers I'm thinking about donating some money to the orphanage..when pigs fly!
(Homer's bbq pig flies past the window)
Smithers: Will you be donating that money now sir?
Mr.Burns: No, I'd rather not
After Springfield has had it's power switched back on after a blackout
Smithers: But sir, where did you get the extra power?
Mr.Burns: I just diverted it from the local orphanage, who are they going to complain to? Their parents?
Another one that made me laugh was when Burns was giving a lecture to a class of 8 year olds
Burns: Family, friends, Religion. These are the demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business
Saw the end of one last night they where trapped in the school by snow principle skinner sent a hamster in a ball out to get help when they got out of the school skinner was in a sack for dodge balls for some reason and he says to the hamster.
"You did it nibbles you saved us now chew through my ball sack for me"
I spat the dinner out all over the sitting room laughing at that.
Exactly the kind of poor, puerile jokes the show has been reduced to, unfortunately.
100% agree. They tried a more family friendly South Park approach to the show when the natural storylines dried up, that didn't work, they've tried turning Homer into Peter Griffin (remember when his character used to be likeable?) and that isn't working, don't see anywhere else for them to go at this stage
One of my favourite moments is where there playing poker at lenny's house I remember it was something like this
Moe:"HOMER! You always do this! aghh! chokin' onmy own rage here."
Carl: "Hey don't yell at Homer just becase hes slow."
Homer thinking to to himself: "Uh-Oh something said.Not good. Was it "Dont yell at homer!" no thats ok, waiiiiitttttt, they called you slow!".
Homer:"How there you call me sl- *presumably hours later, everyone has left.
Lenny: "Homer you're still here ? pfft you are slow."
Homer thinking to himself again: Uh-oh, something said. not good-"
Lenny: "Get the hell out of here!"
*Homer gets kicked out the door.
Classic moment
Coleman for Ireland
Simpsons episode based in Ireland on tomorrow night, anyone watching it ? I cant help but feel it will be a let down considering the comedy in the simpsons has deteriorated, I hope they don't do what they always do now and crack jokes from the episode of Family Guy when they went to Ireland. They don't have any big guest stars lined up for this one either, except for Colm Meaney, they have 3 others but i've never heard of them, one of them aren't even Irish.

Since the Simpsons has not been remotely funny for years now I will give this a miss
The Simpsons has fallen so badly you rarely see it mentioned in any Top 10 of all time lists, where a decade a go it would be surprising if it wasn't Number One
I can only imagine how lame the episode tomorrow will be cause I won't be watching it
