“It’s a Krusty Kinda Kristmas, brought to you by ILG, selling your body’s chemicals after you die. And by Little Sweetheart Cupcakes, a subsidiary of ILG.” – TV Announcer He is Carvallo: And I’ll bet they don’t even pay overtime: But could you use Hitler’s brain to construct an unbeatable swimmer?: I used to have an old Apple II game that let you play all the winter Olympic sports, even biathlon. It sucked: Could be worse, could be a soap bar stabbing:

Some More Simpsons Day YouTube
I have nothing that can compare with the pure, ancient memory trip of that earlier video, but these are pretty good. Not much in the way of new information in this first one, but you can see Jean and Groening as younger than now but not so painfully young as they were in that other one.: Here’s BBC Radio 1’s Top 40 countdown for when “Do the Bartman” took #1. Here’s an Australian Channel Ten promo for “Bart the General”: Same thing, but for “The Call of the Simpsons”: Presented by Sega and preceeding Doogie Howser. Here’s a Pizza Hut…
Sight Gags: Homer’s Triple Bypass
“Ahh, little Homer . . . How’d he get that?” – Abraham Simpson Homer’s maternity ward: Reputable health insurance: Springfield General is a very strict hospital: And now, people who look like things: Surgical audience:
Behind the Scenes in 1992
This must’ve been a promo FOX did for affiliates or something, but it is pure nostalgia gold: Fun notes: 0:25 – Groening talking about his drawing style being based on drawing without looking at what you’re doing so the teacher can’t tell you aren’t paying attention. Heh. 0:45 – A very young Mike Reiss noting that they spend two or three times as much time on a script as even good sitcoms. Methinks that number has come down in recent years. 1:10 – Hi, Al, bitchin’ jacket. 1:15 – An all too brief clip from the table read of “Kamp…
Sight Gags: Simpsons Roasting on An Open Fire
“Selma and I couldn’t be more excited about seeing our baby sister for Christmas Eve.” – Patty Bouvier “Homer and I are looking forward to your visit, too.” – Marge Simpson “Somehow I doubt that Homer’s excited. Of all the men you could’ve married, I don’t know why you picked one who’s always so rude rt. . .” – Patty Bouvier To go along with my new found love of quoting episodes on the day they came out, how about a look at some of those jokes that just can’t be quoted? Being the first episode and all, the sign…
Hooray for Simpsons Day!
“Who the hell is that?” – Bart Simpson “Bullwinkle.” – Homer Simpson “Who? . . . Wait a minute, who’s that?” – Bart Simpson “Underdog, don’t you know anything?” – Homer Simpson “Well, I know it wouldn’t hurt them to use some cartoons made in the last fifty years.” – Bart Simpson “Son, this is a tradition. If you start building a balloon for every flash in the pan cartoon character, you’ll turn the parade into a farce!” – Homer Simpson Happy Simpsons Day, everybody! As in previous years (this is the fifth since we started DHS), we’ll have a…
