    "Thats Homer Simpson, sir."
    "Who?"
    "All the major events of your life in the last few years have involved him in one way or another."
    "Right. Send him in."

    I remember seeing a theory that part of the reason why the Simpsons declined is because of real life. When it first aired, an unintellectual working-class blue-collar worker with no college degree could get by with the lifestyle in the Simpsons (family of five, four bedroom home, two pets, two cars and a pensioner), but not so much now due to recessions, deregulation, union busting and outsourcing. So that appeal of the middle-class nuclear family no longer works because that American Dream is long dead

    Fun fact: the family name Smallwood originates from the swedish Smaldal, reached England during King George of Norway crusade, then after the crusade reached Italy where it became Smaldone. The name still remains in Italy except for a small part that mysteriously reached Argentina just after the end of the Second World War.

    I could listen to Karl talking about Simpsons all day. Simpsons back in the day was a go-to show for me. I also had a VHS loaded up with recorded episodes. I don't remember all of them, but I specifically remember the candy venus episode, the african episode, and the australian episode specifically on it.

    Ever before you brought it up later in the episode, I was thinking about how you got the green screen tattoo on your arm along with the green screen shirts and mugs, and how much I love that. People need to lighten up and just learn to enjoy the little things in life. Stuff like that is the main reason I continue to watch your content.

    My favorite Moleman quote is when Bart and Lisa are fighting and they see him sitting across the street.
    "You're gay for Moleman!"
    "No, you're gay for Moleman!"
    Moleman, sadly to himself - "Nobody's gay for Moleman."

    There's more, but like, ya know, whatever. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I think I have a tie for my favorite Simpsons quote. It's either the "Batman" exchange between Homer and Marge in the monorail episode(although that whole episode was very quotable. "I call the big one Bitey,") or that time Homer and Marge left the kids under the care of Abe and the kids got taken away and forced to live with the Flanderses. And when they confronted him, all he said was "Oh, bitch bitch bitch." That cracks me up every time

    Moleman: copy, gun safety and body cam off.

    Skinner pops up, "Don't you think that's a little disingenuous?"

    It was great growing up in NJ. We got both FoxNY and FoxPhiladelphia. I forget which was which, but one did Simpsons at 5:30 and 6, while the other did 6 and 6:30. So at 6 you got to pick which episode you wanted to watch of the 2.

And whenever the chance to tell people animal trivia occurs, i fiendishly tell them those two false facts. Haha

    I am in my late 40s so I watched the series each week starting with season 2 (that is when it came to Canada). It is funny to look back at how my friends and I disected every episode and we knew it had peeked at season 5 when season 7 hit. Many argue that season 6 is the best but for us Season 5 was just incredible and we all agreed there was a decline in quality with season 6. I even remmebr us calling the end for the Simpsons after the second spisode of season 7.
    Nothing will top the out of control laughter we shared watching "Homer Goes to College" in 1993, "Dropped his notes!" might be the best joke ever written.

    Bart: "let's see what's on TV!"
    Another favourite Thrillho quote is in the episode where Bart gets him on the FBI's most wanted list. They copy the Fugitive scene in the dam and he jumps and goes "waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Ouch! My glasses!"

    "Of course, Marge, but there's 'the truth' (shakes head) and 'the truth!' (eagerly nods)"
    And of course, the all time classic,
    "Nobody's gay for moleman". (Which is categorically untrue)

    I taped at least ten years of the show starting with the original Christmas one-shot. But my last (of about ten) VCR died this year. And I canceled cable a decade ago. So other than youtube clips I haven't seen The Simpsons in a while. There was a period in the '90s when I could never get through a conversation without inserting a few Simpsons quotes.
    My musical pick would be Stop The Planet of the Apes, I Want To Get Off, with "I hate every ape I see, from chimpan A to chimpanzee" being one of the greatest lines ever. With the Monorail song being a close second.
    As for lines... well, I'm old and obese so it's not really all that funny, but I gotta love "imaginary future fat hillbilly Lisa" and the line "I warsh myself with a rag on a stick". Because, well, gross, but it can be a challenge.
