    Well people? what is your faverate epsiode?
    You dont have to give a episode name, a short epsiode description is good enough.

    My faverate would have to be the Hank Scorpio episode. Homer gets a job working for the super villin hank scorpio who wants to sieze the west coast. The whole family move to a luxories new house.

    flaming moe's

    fav part is when barts jinxed (spelling) and he writes down on a card for homer to say his name and homer's reply is "What is it my son?"
    then bart says say my name and then homer punches him for breaking jinx

    ahh the simpsons were good when they actually gave a damm not like nowadays


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 546 ✭✭✭Easygainer


    Ah too hard a question, so many memories...

    I'll agree that most of the new ones aren't that good but it's because they're so drained of ideas that they're relying alot on celebrities and extravagant episodes rather than humour arising from more down to earth quirky happenings. In fact by bringing in the celebrities they're doing the very thing they parodied in the poochie episode.

    Anyway, one of my favourite episodes is when bart sells his soul. It's a good mix of subtle and blatant humour with a nice bit of satire!

    I love the one where the Simpsons get a pool, bart breaks his leg, lisa becomes popular, Ned murders his wife and buries her in the back garden (allegedly). Classic episode...

    Definately the one where Homer finds the sugar. It's packed with so many excellent quotes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,334 ✭✭✭OfflerCrocGod


    When Homer becomes Burns helper and Smithers goes on holidays

    Burns: "Is it about my cube?":D.

    Homer: "You made Lisa cry, then I cried, then Maggie laughed, she's such a little trooper".

    Brilliant.

    without a doubt:

    Secrets of a Successful Marriage


    Look, everyone: now that I'm a teacher, I've sewed patches on my elbows! [shows his elbow]

    Marge: Homer, that's supposed to be leather patches on a tweed blazer, not that other way around! You've ruined a perfectly good jacket!

    Homer: Ah -- incorrect, Marge. Two perfectly good jackets.




    Now, what is a wedding? Well, Webster's Dictionary describes a wedding as, "The process of removing weeds from one's garden.


    Look, Marge, you don't know what it's like. _I'm_ the one out there every day putting his ass on the line. And I'm not out of order! You're out of order. The whole freaking system is out of order. You want the truth? You want the truth?! You can't handle the truth! 'Cause when you reach over and put your hand into a pile of goo that was your best friend's face, you'll know what to do! Forget it, Marge, it's Chinatown.


    Well, let's just call them, uh, Mr. X and Mrs. Y. So anyway, Mr. X would say, "Marge, if this doesn't get your motor running, my name isn't Homer J. Simpson."


    Marge, look at me: we've been separated for a day, and I'm as dirty as a Frenchman. In another few hours I'll be dead!



    ah the whole episode could be quoted :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 407 ✭✭niallith


    the one where marge becomes a gambler would get my vote tis soo funny
    homer rocks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,186 ✭✭✭davej


    I concurr with quarryman's suggestion.. Secrets of a successful marriage. Though I've seen it so many times at this stage.Also the one where Homer goes back to college is pretty funny. Bart vs Austrailia is very good too but again it's been on so many times some of the gags have lost all meaning.

    --Bond-- "Do you expect me to talk Scorpio."
    --Socrpio-- "I dont expect anything of you except to die and be a cheap funeral. Your gonna die now"

    Brilliant.

    Okay, obviously this thread is going to go on forever, but I can't resist:

    I can't believe nobody has mentioned my all-time favourite, The City of New York Vs. Homer Simpson. As the World Trade Centre features prominently, there was a concern that they would no longer show it, but I'm happy to report that it has been on RTE at least once since 2001.

    Lisa: Dear motorist, your vehicle is illegally parked in the burough of Manhattan.
    Homer: My vehicle!
    Lisa: If you do not remedy this malparkage within 72 hours, your car will be thrown into the East River at your expense.



    Voice: Thank you for calling the parking violations bureau. To plead `not guilty,' press `one' now.
    [Homer dials `one']
    Thank you. Your plea has been...
    Male rough voice: [the man's voice is gruff] Rejected.
    Voice: You will be assessed the full fine plus a small...
    Male rough voice: Large lateness fee.
    Voice: Please wait by your vehicle between 9 AM and 5 PM for parking officer Steve...
    Male rough voice: Grabowski.


    Also high on my list at the moment is "A Fish Called Selma", where Troy McClure marries Selma to revive his career, and stars in a musical version of Planet of the Apes called "Stop the Planet of the Apes, I Want to Get Off!":


    Parker: Troy! Mac Parker. Ever hear of... Planet of the Apes?
    Troy: Uh... the movie or the planet?
    Parker: The brand-new multimillion dollar musical. And _you_ are
    starring... as the human.
    Troy: It's the part I was born to play, baby!

    Bond: "Scorpio your a maad man."

    Yes thats my faverate episode


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 841 ✭✭✭Dr Pepper


    Thank you quarryman for the great laughs :D (and nearly getting me fired!!)
    I wish I could remember specific episodes but funny line that springs to mind:

    Homer (of course): 'Gime'.. What the hell is a gime?..
    /Enters gym..
    Oh.. a giiime


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,784 ✭✭✭Nuttzz


    Scoripo was the best "oh yeah the hamock district"

    The stonecutters was good as well, "this symbol on your car stops paramedics from robbing your wallet"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,330 ✭✭✭✭loyatemu


    i really like the Bobo episode

    "My old man can't get a beer because his old man won't give a bear to another old man! Get him!!"
    "Wait, why are we getting him again?"

    oh yeah - and this episode:

    "oh... my... god.
    TRAMAMPOLINE!! TRAMBAMPOLINE!!!!!!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,483 ✭✭✭Töpher


    Scorpio rocks, as does Homerpalooza, but my favourite one....

    Medicinal Marijuana (I think is the name of it)

    \crows pecking homer
    Homer: OW! That is not a worm!

    Homer: And its all thanks to yes-i-cannabis!.... We have a kitchen?!?

    Phish: Man, this man is really ill!
    Hans Moleman: My doctor didn't tell me that, I had to hear it from Phish.

    Otto: Remember that time I dropped my keys, and you thought the phone was ringing?
    Homer: *laughs* Oh yeah! Get out!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 372 ✭✭catspring


    i love the one with the chilli fair when homer eats the guatamalin insanity peppers and halucinates! "sun goes up, sun goes down, sun goes up, sun goes down...."
    and at the end they sing the short shorts song... :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 318 ✭✭qwertyphobia


    Ok thing I have it down to three now

    The chilli one where Johnny Cash is Homer's spirt guide

    The one where homer thinks Bart is gay "dedaciated to the gay steel workers of america"
