Favorite Smipsons Couch Scene

[FroGG_NeaL]

Name your favorite couch scene(s) from the opening of The Simpsons.

[Sideburnious]

It has to be the large stage show scene that starts off with them doing the Can-Can.

[FroGG_NeaL]

That is a good one.

 

I've been laying in bed with a migraine so bad I couldn't sleep it off, so I've been layin' around watchin' all my Simpsons DVDs.

 

I'll list 'em later when I can think right.

[Lil' Bitch]

Freddy and Jason (who TALKS) are waiting for the Simpson, on the couch, watching TV, but Homer is killed by Marge in the garbage when he rammed into by his own car.

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

When the couch and the wall just keep going further back and they keep running after it.

[devo]

The Get Smart one.

[Guest wildpegasus]

The one with Astroboy in it of course.

 

Bart is Astroboy.

 

 

[Special K]

But a machine-gun didn't come out of his BUTT :-(

[Guest wildpegasus]

But a machine-gun didn't come out of his BUTT :-(

 

HIPS, not but!!

 

Does anybody know who everyone else is dressed up as?

 

Homer is Ultraman, Marge is someone from Gatchaman?, Maggie is Pikachu from Pokemon and Lisa looks to possibly be from Pretty Soldier.

[Just John]

I liked one of the treehouse of horror ones, where they go through the normal intro, except Bart, Lisa, and Homer all get injured/killed doing their routine entry to the house.

[The Metal Maniac]

When the couch is unfolded into a bed and Grandpa is sleeping on it, so they just fold it back up as Grandpa wakes and goes "Wha?" then sit on it.

[the max]

The Monty Python one.

[FroGG_NeaL]

Most of the ones with Grandpa are good.

 

I dig the Treehouse of Horror ones, too. The warnings at the beginnings are a cool touch for those.

That seems about right, although from memory Lisa seems to be a Sailor Scout from Sailor Moon. Marge is Princess from Gatchaman (G-Force, Battle of the Planets.)

[FroGG_NeaL]

Nobody gives a fuck about that shit.

 

Take it to WP's Astroboy thread.

 

Now:

 

 

Nah, but that is a cool ass set.

 

The Powers of 10

 

Escher

 

Some of my favs that I could find on YouTube.

 

Plus, super bonus clip:

 

Mr. Sparkle

[Crimson G]

The Rocky & Bullwinkle opening. Brings back many wonderful memories (of both shows.)

[DrVenkman PhD]

I also like the Japanese couch gag. I used to like the big stage show extravaganza couch gag, but learning through commentary it exists soley to lengthen a show short on material has lessened my opinion of it.

 

There was a really long recent one, but I forget what happened.

 

The one where it goes through the universe is neat.

 

On another note, would it be possible for a mod to merge this, the (non-existent) I&S thread, and the movie thread into a OAO Simpsons thread for all our Simpsons conversations? DVDs, favourite quotes, the movie, why some people still like the show, etc?

[The Amazing Rando]

Parachuting. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH *THUD*

[luke-o]

The transformers one.

[Art Sandusky]

Escher, and the one where they can't get into the house.

[MarvinisaLunatic]

There was a really long recent one, but I forget what happened.

 

Was it the one where all the furniture is attacking? Moe fending off all the furniture in the Tavern and Homer running into a furniture store to get away from the attacking furniture out in the street?

[Elbarto997]

For me, it has to be the one where they're locked out of the house = Early classic.

[FroGG_NeaL]

I dug the Gumby one tonight.

[HollywoodSpikeJenkins]

When Nelson moves the couch, they all fall down, and he laughs.

yea I really liked that one

 

 

in the episode where Bart gets fat from eating junk food, they did a couch scene in the middle where they all get there but Bart takes forever cuz he is slow from being too fat

 

as for regular ones, the one where the family goes to sit on the couch, but finds clones of them alreayd there and they stare down

[Jericholic82]

and lo and behold,

ATTACK OF THE FURNITURE!!!!!!

[luke-o]

Thats brilliant!

 

I just remembered, the one where it shows the family portrait over the next couple of years, and homer dies and marge marries Lenny. Funny stuff.

[TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe]

The 138th episode spectacular where they show like 10 of them in a row to start the show.

 

They all come to the couch with their heads on the wrong bodies, and they all pop them off and exchange heads.

 

Snowball II is sleeping on the couch, and growls at the family as they run to sit down, so they all slowly back off.

 

Someone already mentioned it, my favorite one is where the couch and the rest of the room keeps getting farther and farther away the more they run after it.

[Guest Fook]

Although it's a pretty old one, I've always had a soft spot for the one where Grampa is sleeping on the fold out bed of the couch and the family runs in, folds up the bed with Grampa still in it, then sits down on the couch.

[Red Baron]

The one where the music keeps on playing but the family locks themselves out of the house.
