Sideburnious 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2006 It has to be the large stage show scene that starts off with them doing the Can-Can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FroGG_NeaL 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest wildpegasus Report post Posted August 10, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just John 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FroGG_NeaL 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2006 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.)

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2006 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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? 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2006 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 Report post Posted August 15, 2006 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.
