When I was in college The Simpsons was on three times a day: 5 PM, 7:30 PM and 11 PM. If you were home early you could catch the 5 PM. The 7:30 was a great way to get the evening started, and the 11 PM was nightcap.
Some great episodes
Rosebud, season 5: Inspired by one of the movie industry's greatest achievements, this episode follows Burns in his effort to reclaim the toy bear from his youth.
That episode where Homer goes into the portal behind the book case and becomes 3D. Fucking classic. The end of the episode when he's in our dimension, and looks all scared at gawking humans is so creepy it's amazing. It's kind of like breaking the fourth wall for animated crap.
And that other cool episode that I can't remember the name of (Google don't fail me now!), but it was about the mob and it was cut into segements and maybe was an homage to Reservoir Dogs? They had a scene were the police chief was like, lets go all CSI on that coke can, from the coke cans perspective. It was a great episode.
Too much is too much
I didn't see the movie. I haven't seen an episode in like six seasons. I can't imagine how it could be relevant. I mean, House (crazy House) and The Office (Jim and Pam are happy!) both jumped the shark after just 6 seasons!
I mean, there are too many fucking episodes on this page to be for reals, yo, etc, ad nasuem. If we decided to rent this show on DVD to catch up, it would take a month of non-stop viewing: no showers, no work, no sleeping. Ick.
The Greatest Moment of All
The best Simpsons moment for me was the episode where Homer gets replaced by a German agent and the family clearly knows this has happened, but isn't too concerned. The double takes Marge out for a "reasonably priced steak dinner followed by an evening of efficient German sex" and Marge agrees saying, "A night out'sa night out." That kills me ever time I see it.
The Leftorium
So to celebrate the Simpsons we made a shirt for Ned's Springfield Mall business, the Leforium. Cause leftys have rights too!
