We had a minor Dead Homer Society conclave this evening and I noticed something peculiar while we were watching “The Front”. Homer and Marge attend their 20th high school reunion in 1994. The episode ends with a flash forward to them at their 50th reunion in 2024. 2009 is the midpoint between 1994 and 2024; it’s been fifteen years since then and it’ll be fifteen more until we get there. There’s nothing at all profound or interesting about that, I just thought it deserved mentioning.

One response to “Midpoint”
And by the year 2024, The Simpsons will be up to season 36, I shouldn’t wonder.
