And as the “real Lisa Simpson” was her “second to last victim”,that would mean technically Maggie was an accomplice in her sister’s murder to avenge her brother! From a certain point of view!
EI8HT was so well thought out and written. If you notice, that Lisa kills the first borns, like how Bob killed Bart, the FIRSTborn Simpson Child, and also, Lisa says to Bob “When you die, I’ll be dancing.” What does Lisa do before Killing Bob? Dance to the same music that he sung to Bart before he killed him. SUCH A GOLDEN SEGMENT
Ei8ght was the best Treehouse of Horror segment I've seen in some time. Not that there haven't been recent ones I've liked, but this was both gruesome and funny. Plus, I got to see Sideshow Bob biting the big one at the end.
EI8HT is probably one of the few Treehouse of Horror segments that has genuinely creeped me out in a long time. The gruesome deaths were unnerving enough, but the fact that this is an alternate version of an actual episode adds a whole other layer of horror and tragedy to it. All it would have taken was for Sideshow Bob to stop singing for things to turn out as horribly for The Simpson family as they did here. Not to mention the way Lisa just slumps down traumatized after seeing Bart being killed is just brutal.
The Simpsons characters don't exactly act in-character in most treehouse of horror specials, so I kinda doubt this would've been a canon alternate continuity had Bob killed Bart.
I like the idea of The Simpsons doing some “What If” stories. Kind of akin to Futurama’s “Anthology of Interest” stories. Just to throw some ideas out there: What if Ned had died instead of Maude? What if Skinner and Edna did get married? What if Herb Powell had never been given up for adoption? What if Barney had never touched a beer?
I give the golden chainsaw to Nelson because my god that had to be censored on UA-cam. Dull machete for lamest kill goes to that one victim in the same segment we didn’t see because...c’mon.
Since they did one alternative ending for “Cape Feare”, I really want them to do “Who Shot Mr Burns” next whether Mr Burns actually died and Maggie killed more people to cover it up, like “The Fantastic Mr Ripley”
Another twist to that would be what if Mr Burns didn't get shot and he just progressively becomes more and more evil realizing he blocked out the Sun and had gotten away with it, he can basically get away with anything else evil. There's a lot of horror potential in that.
For some What If? Funsies: 1. What if Homer wasn't influenced by Lisa and kept being the Chosen one of the Stonecutters? 2. What if Frank Grimes had survived? 3. What if Sideshow Bob hunted the Simpsons during the events of the movie? 4. What if Marge had remained as a cop? 5. What if Bart had gotten the Fallout Boy role?
@mangomonroe Russ Cargill and the EPA would catch the Simpsons before they get to Alaska, but instead of putting them back in the dome, he offers a deal: if they stay out of his way and don't interfere with his plans, he'll drop the charges and safely relocate them to a new town. Marge refuses at first, but Cargill reminds her of all the times that the people of Springfield have mistreated her and her family over the years, including the angry mob. Realizing he's right, they all agree, but on one condition: he also spares the Flanders family, along with Colin and his family since they weren't part of the mob. Time passes, and things seem pretty good: they have a new home, new friends, and better lives. However, their past starts haunting them, with familiar faces popping up and following them everywhere they go. Perhaps not EVERYBODY died in Springfield...
The highlight was definitely that opening of the 2nd Segment where they recreated the "Caped Fear" episode. The animators deserve major props for making it look like the cel-animated era of the show
I love Sideshow Bob so much, seeing what happened to him at the end of his segment made me have to go check his study to see if he was still alive because that messed me up
There actually Sideshow Bob episode coming up. But due to the writer strike it remains unclear whether if it’ll be in this season or next season. But there is a Sideshow Bob episode coming.
Thoughts on this year's treehouse -yes we so NEED more "what if" episodes. always such a super fun concept. -I wish Kang and Kodos got a speaking role. I feel like they're do for a segment of their own since they've been kind of sidelined lately? -The scariest thing about this year's TOH is the fact that Lisa, Bart, and Maggie are going to be forced to live in a world of Homers
Alternate endings to older Simpsons episodes in which the main characters go crazy would be a good way to do a Treehouse of Horror segment from now on. Like if Marge murdered the women she thought Homer was having an affair with.
Here’s an idea for a possible Treehouse of Horror that I’m kinda surprised they didn’t do already: an Itchy and Scratchy themed version of Five Nights At Freddie’s! Kinda surprised they didn’t do that since the movie was just put out recently, and the closest we’ve gotten to something like that was back with those malfunctioning robots from the theme park! Also, for some What If scenarios: What If Sideshow Bob was never caught for his first crime (framing Krusty)? What If Homer kept the crayon out of his brain (I know it seems like an obvious scenario, but it’s the Simpsons, it can go any crazy way they want)? What If Maggie was the only one who could talk? What If Homer’s brain wasn’t put back into his body after being placed into a robot?
I, too, am shocked they've not done that, especially given it basically writes itself! What do you need? 1) A child-friendly property with a dark, seedy underbelly (Freddy Fazbear to Krusty the Clown) 2) That franchise needs a fast food restaurant (Freddy Fazbear's Pizza to Krusty Burger) 3) Marketable mascot characters who can be turned into animatronics (Itchy & Scratchy, Poochie could be a fun addition/joke as well) 4) A cast of child characters you aren't shy about killing off in Treehouse specials to get stuffed into said animatronics and possess them (the entirety of Springfield Elementary, most notably Bart and Lisa but you could get some milage out of stuffing someone like Milhouse or Ralph as well - imagine the comedy you could get out of Bart & Lisa being Itchy & Scratchy and Millhouse being bitter, not that he was dead, but he was relegated to the Poochie suit) 5) Someone with ties to said franchise who has a history of trying to kill a child... Sideshow Bob makes for the perfect Purple Guy stand-in! You couldn't ask for better. 6) A lovable doofus to play the night guard, screw up constantly and get scared out of his mind, and I think we can all agree Homer fits this role. That's it. There's your FNAF parody, practically done for you, because the characters and concepts the Simpsons already have in their tool belt would fit the idea of a FnaF parody like a glove. Just do it already! It would be great for fans of FNaF and even be a fun segment for those less familiar with the in-jokes because... it just fits with what the Simpsons already has and is so well that it makes sense for a Treehouse segment regardless! Call it One Night at Krusty's and badabing-badaboom, you're done!
@@willnack5315 You can do both! Krusty and Itchy & Scratchy are closely enough intertwined that it makes sense for their animatronics to be at Krusty Burger and for Sideshow Bob to stuff kids into them, a dual revenge on Bart and Krusty at the sametime.
Technically there was an episode of Itchy and Scratchy land as a theme park where all marketable characters were animatronic and then the wiring on them goes nuts and starts going after people. While not FNAF, definitely had the homicidal animatronics.
If we go with the "What If" idea, I would like to see an episode where they show what would happen if Ned's parents never took him to the psychiatrist that made him become what he is today and instead he stayed as a very hyperactive and mischievous child. I would be interesting to see a Bart Simpson version of Ned Flanders and how he would interact with everyone else. Another interesting "What if" would be: What if Homer never ended up with that crayon in his brain and instead he lived his life while being a genius.
I thought the Lisa split personality reveal was underwhelming. Maggie should have been the mastermind in my opinion, accidentally framing Lisa because they look similar. She was also witness to Bart's gruesome murder and became mute from the trauma. Her motive for revenge was laid out as Marge and Homer both died after Bart leaving Lisa and her alone. I kind of wish this segment got the Not It treatment. They could have played up the Nelson/Lisa angle a little more too. He still carries a torch for her only to be murdered by her lookalike.
"Eight" was hands down the best segment of this year's TOH, and ranks up there with some of the best TOH segment. (My favorite little detail: the calendar in Lisa's "bedroom" shows October 2023 - exactly 30 years ago in both the show's timeline and IRL.) By comparison, "Wild Barts" was just ok and "Lout Break" was meh. 733 kills? Holy crap, I was way off!
Eight may be my favorite Treehouse of Horror segment of this Treehouse of Horror episode I'd love seeing Adult Lisa try to solve the Murder Mystery till plot twist Lisa became the Psycho Murder to kill Sideshow Bob
I don't watch Simpsons but I found a clip of the second piece of the treehouse of horror and found it interesting... then ended up here. And your voice carried me through the video before I even realised that I _don't watch this show._ Seriously, your voice is incredible. God I wish I sounded like you XD
Oh my god thank you for acknowledging how disappointing the lack of wraparounds is! It just feels emptier without the characters telling each other stories or warning us it'll be "the scariest year ever". Or, of course, Kang and Kodos messing around before announcing the number we're on
Ngl, this was my favorite one. I actually was scared with this one. Like it's so chilling to see Lisa cutting up Bob, while the original He Remains An Englishman plays in the background while Maggie is just chillin
I loved the if Bob killed Bart and what happens Later segment, cause there was no supernatural attachment just a piece of what could in fact happen "what if" story is excellent. I hope they do another Halloween segment of what could happen if something changed from a previous episode like what if Mr.Burns was killed by Maggie when she shot him?
I would like to see a Treehouse of Horror where all the side characters find out their side characters. then they try to kill Homer to end it or something and the whole episode is all the side characters trying to kill Homer.
I wish they made a entire segment or episode with the classic cell shaded style. It would also be fun if they could add slight grain effects and the colors changing in the characters during movements. This would be a good idea if they decided to parody some classic movie or say that this was a lost episode from 1995!
The one thing I had an issue about in the third segment is that Homer went full Peter Griffin by dooming the world because he wanted everyone to think exactly like him. Even dooming his wife to suffer the same fate as the rest of the infected. And for those who say "Oh he didn't care what she looked like", umm no he was just turned because she looked like him. That's called narcissism and it seems like it came bit out of left field. We all know Homer can be selfish but not to this extreme. But for some fun, here are some What Ifs I'd like to see: 1) What if Cecil had become Krusty's sidekick instead of Bob? 2) What if the real Seymour Skinner had stayed and Armin just left town for good? 3) What if Martin did die when he fell off the cliff? (This one has the most THOH potential especially if Bart and Lisa both get thrown in juvie. When Bart gets out, he reforms and becomes a police detective while Lisa becomes a serial killer like she did in Ei8ht but only Bart can't bring himself to turn in his sister. Make it a parody of Dexter but it gender bent with Lisa as Dexter and Bart as Debra.) It was a good THOH but nothing tops last year's.
Well, I was way off but then again I’m not surprised lol! I 10,000% agree with you, Lydia, Eight was an absolutely fantastic segment and honestly could’ve been flushed out to be a whole episode by itself it was really good! I love the idea of what episode I hadn’t thought about that for the Simpsons, but they’re definitely is a lot more beyond the ones you mentioned that could really work for that format. That would be awesome! The first segment was definitely more OK than the third and I agree for them tackling NFTS the way they did it was really smart! I didn’t catch the actual kill count counter in there when I watched the episode I wonder if they did that specifically for you?! 😂 I hope you had a great vacation! I replied to your story, but I don’t think you ever saw it, but I enjoyed the pictures!
Hey Josh, I didn't catch that kill counter the first time I watched it either and I was scratching my head trying to figure out how I'm going to count every train death. When I watched it again on my big screen I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw it 😂
I was literally thinking the same thing when it came to having more "What If?" segments/episodes like what we saw here with "Cape Feare." - What if Marge HAD had an affair with Jacques, or Homer with Mindy? - What if no one had shot Mr. Burns and his "supervillainy" continued unabated? - Any number of Bob's plots going a different way, like what if Bart never cleared Krusty's name, got to Selma in time, or found out about Bob's voter fraud when he ran against Quimby? - What if Homer had in fact died trying to jump the Springfield Gorge, the family resents Bart, and Bart grows up to be a daredevil, becoming obsessed with increasingly dangerous stunts as a means to "be with his dad" again?
As an aside, I always wondered why Sideshow Bob wasn't after Lisa as well -- you could argue that she had played an even bigger role in SB being disgraced and thrown in prison than Bart did.
I like to think regardless of how old and bland the show has become one consistency is that the treehouse of horror is not bad at worst but top tier at best. Definitely a good one this year
I love almost everything about the Ei8ht segment, from the continuity nods to getting to see Lisa as the villain etc but if you'll permit me a compliment-sandwich for an almost-perfect segment one aspect I didn't like was the "split personality" reveal. This wasn't even because of the way mental illness is villainized or the overuse of the trope (which they comment on), I just don't think it really made sense or added anything to the story. Sure a trauma as deep as seeing her brother be murdered could result in the development of DID and similar disorders, but in terms of the use in the story, I think the exact same beats could be pulled off with Lisa being conscious of the kills the entire time and just consciously acting oblivious in front of the cops and Bob for her plan. The lapse in memory works great in predicaments where the character wouldn't be pretending to be innocent when they're alone, but we never see Lisa in a situation where she would realistically stop acting. Plus, this plan to kill Bob being made consciously the entire time could give her character more agency and explain how she was able to get her cop sister to help her out. The scariest Lisa isn't another being taking over, it's the Lisa we know and love being so passionate about revenge that she turns her stubborn passion to planning intricate murders. It wasn't a huge detail, just felt a bit disappointing. To close out this compliment sandwich I will say I love how recent seasons have employed their ability to emulate the classic-era animation style for these new stories. It gets me every time and it's such a treat
Loutbreak coming just after “Air Force Wong” was…interesting timing. But it also reminded me of the Robin Williams Midas Touch-esque story in FG Viewer Mail 2
Jeez i wouldn't known that lisa would be a murderer this time, as she is the most intelligent character how finds a way out of situations, but she does have some episodes that she is the bad one and this is the second story when lisa have a split personality disaorder in treehouse of horror episodes. But Eight made lisa simpson stand out, this is a masterpiece and great to have the legendary Kelsey Grammer back as Sideshow Bob. 10/10 if you have different opinions that ok cos this is my opinion. And once again Lydia great video❤❤
In true crime, a lot of the time kids who were bullies in school become figures of authority in adult life. I think that’s what it’s referencing with Nelson etc. It happens a lot in real life as well.
I really enjoyed this episode the 2nd segment was so awesome. My answer to the question you asked about what movie should get a Treehouse Of Horror parody is Trick R Treat
So funny story. I saw the clip of Lisa killing side show Bob and the guard on stand by. I thought she was was Lisa clone until after I saw the episode she was Maggie. I can’t belive I mistook Maggie for a Lisa clone XD
This episode was fantastic! 2 was my favourite too! I would love to see The Simpsons parody John Carpenter's The Thing. Maybe it could involve the Springfield children getting trapped inside school during the winter (similar to "Skinner's Sense of Snow") with a shape-shifting creature roaming the school halls, looking for its next victim. I also would absolutely love a parody of Stephen King's Carrie. I know they already did it in the comics but I would love a tv version of it. With Lisa in the leading role again. I see no one else fitting into Carrie's shoes. And maybe even Squid Game just for fun. This was an amazing kill count Lydia, thank you for this.
Little correction: the total kills should be 737 as 4 people died while homer was explaining the benefits of a world entirely made of homers: 2 die via car wreck, the paramedic has a heart attack after drinking a soda and dies and the last one is a biker that gets launched by the previous 3 and dies after landing on the ground. Edit: It has to be 739 as it's shown that Marge and Homer also died as well on the second segment with Marge dying due to grief and Homer dies by choking on a tennis ball.
Loved this you did a great job on your take on Dead Meat’s Kill Count I hope he sees it and enjoys it 😁🤗❤️❤️❤️💪🏾been watching your channel for awhile it’s great to meet another female that’s a huge fan of The Simpsons super rare your video breakdowns on the characters are good keep up the great work 💪🏾💐💐💐
Saw your video and realized i needed to catch up. So this is right after I watched the episode, then your video. While not as amazing as last year's Treehouse of horror (really loved the deathnote segment), this still was pretty strong as you said. I agree with your assessments that the middle was likely the strongest and the last the weakest, but still overall enjoyable. Lisa has been getting some good Tree house horror segments lately! 100% would love a few more what ifs, either as treehouse episodes or just a Frink machine episode similar to when Bart and Lisa stumbled into his house and saw their (possible) futures. A big what if for me would be... what if Homer kept his smarts from that episode where he got a crayon taken out of his head (before having moe shove it back up there in the end)?
I agree on your take on the wraparound segments in the early Treehouse of Horror. But some of the non-wraparound openings are cool too, like Gullerimo DelToro's opening segment.
For a fun what if senario. What if.. Sideshow Bob got away with framing Krusty? Or what if … the Simpsons actually aged from 1989?( and Maggie spoke as an adult) Or
733 kills + 1 as just before Lisa kills Bob she admits to killing Professor Lisa. "But she's gone now. She was my last victim, or rather second last". I know Lisa isn't physically dead but that part of her defiantly is.
12:26 I also like how in the last segment of this episode. Krusty can be seen in the background, also turned into a Homer but he is literally the exact same as he always is.
I totally agree since in the episode Homie the Clown, Legs and Louie where completely confused which is the real Krusty since Homer and Krusty share the same design and dressed near exactly the same except the tuff of Krusty's hair since Homer is bald.
7:56 I think what it means is that eventually the bullies will grow out out and change that or it means that some policeman are bullies, you know police brutality
Love the video. History of a horrible with so much fun and happy you did this video on it and I do agree I wish they did the framing it felt like the stories weren't as smooth as old Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors were. But still great video
I’m so glad Sideshow Bob was back. The one part of so confused as why was he back in jail? And of course, now he’s old and I’m sad that his palm tree hair is gone.
That became these Treehouse of Horror episodes are non-canon. Basically there not apart of any episodes. Which is why Sideshow Bob is back in prison and is old.
It's so honestly unsettling seeing Lisa be really violent lol. That's really outside of her character. Also, I knew it what a matter of time because they poked fun at the NFT/Crypto stuff. And finally, that last segment of the Treehouse of Horror episode, had me left on a cliffhanger in my honest opinion. Hopefully Bart, Lisa and Maggie can somehow find a way to cure the whole world from that.
People are talking about how homer doesn't choke Bart anymore....but in that episode Homer VanHouten was choking Homerhouse (kirk VanHouten choking Milhouse) lol
My ranking 1 cool animations outside the train and kinda liked it 2 I really liked the beginning and it was very good overalls 3 mostly funny and not the usual Kill count guess? Around 50 probably
Lisa becoming an investigator/kill is funny when you consider her voice actress Yeardly Smith has a True Crime podcast with her husband and brother-in-law, both former law enforcement.
I have some What If ideas for The Simpsons. 1. What if Bart, Lisa, and Maggie actually get infected and turned into Homers despite already having their father's DNA? Also, Moe will get infected by the burping gas despite having a plastic mask over his face. (Note: This is from the third segment, "Lout Break") 2. What if Maude doesn't die? 3. What if Chalmers was furious at Shauna for her actions? 4. What if Bart doesn't pranks on anyone? 5. What if Kirk and Luann are not getting remarried? 6. What if Milhouse was never born? 7. What if Skinner gets revenge on Marge for hitting him on the face with her wet hair? (Note: This is from the episode "Fears of a Clown") 8. What if Shauna had a tragic story? 9. What if Ms. Cantwell become a killer of Lisa? (Note: It's after the event of the episode "Black-Eyed, Please") 10. What if Skinner and Chalmers didn't get banned from Air Cincinnati? I hope you like it, Lydia.
Given the creative nature of 8 I would love to see how Groundskeeper Willie travelled through various universe to reach and attempt to rescue Homer in the segment Time & Punishment.
I don't really have a what if idea, but a possible treehouse of horror segment: Homer is getting attention from lots of women in town as well as those he's met previously and marge gets jealous and thinks either Homer is cheating on her or wants to divorce. This jealousy turns into murder as she kills each and every one of them in gruesome ways.
I have an idea for a Treehouse of horror segment: Final D'ohstination, After Lisa forsees a disaster during a school field trip, the kids of Springfield elementary must work together to stave off death's designs. with mixed results success wise.
The Homer burp clones not only reminded me of “send in the clones”, but also of the one where he eats a space blob and turns into a giant blob himself, with the whole “Homer’s eaten something he DEFINITELY shouldn’t have and now it’s having crazy SiFi effects on him”
Hey love your videos! im a simpsons fanatic also. just came across your channel! watching some past videos of yours right now 😎 i did have a question though ⬇️
Have you played simpsons tapped out?? Im sure youve played or heard of it.. but wanted to suggest possibly making some tapped out videos on your channel🤔 just a suggestion!
Technically in 'Lout Break' you missed four deaths. Hibbert (Homerized) crashed into a hydrant sending and crushed Lindsey (Homerized), a random citizen (Homer-clone) dies of a heart attack and Smithers (Homerized) possibly dies after crashing into the pile of corpses. Also society would count, since it collapsed after Homer refused to give his DNA. If Abe Simpson was in this segment then he'd possibly be immune and (I know its non-canon and if he made a cameo) Frank "Grimey" Grimes would kill himself than rather become infected with a Homer virus.
Maggie helping Lisa is sweet, but it implies she knew about Lisa's plan and split personality and thought "this is fine".
Hey Maggie's got a few bodies herself
very very true @@lumityforever
"For Bart."
barts not the physcotic one
its the girls
you cannot convince me maggie isnt just working there to kill
And as the “real Lisa Simpson” was her “second to last victim”,that would mean technically Maggie was an accomplice in her sister’s murder to avenge her brother!
From a certain point of view!
EI8HT was so well thought out and written.

Also , she kills him at the end of the song , with Bart dying because Bob did not finish he song .
Why is the segment called EI8HT? I know it shows up on the door but WHY? Is it a reference?

These are some awsome episode ideas
Lisa going dark side to avenge her brother sounds great simply as a premise. That could be a whole episode.
9:40 Bart was so important for Lisa that losing him made her lose her entire mind
The highlight was definitely that opening of the 2nd Segment where they recreated the "Caped Fear" episode. The animators deserve major props for making it look like the cel-animated era of the show
I loved how they showed an alternate version of Capé Fear in Ei8ht! Probably one of my favorite segments ever!
Absolutely great segment 🙂
I love Sideshow Bob so much, seeing what happened to him at the end of his segment made me have to go check his study to see if he was still alive because that messed me up

Thoughts on this year's treehouse
-yes we so NEED more "what if" episodes. always such a super fun concept.
-I wish Kang and Kodos got a speaking role. I feel like they're do for a segment of their own since they've been kind of sidelined lately?
-The scariest thing about this year's TOH is the fact that Lisa, Bart, and Maggie are going to be forced to live in a world of Homers

4) A cast of child characters you aren't shy about killing off in Treehouse specials to get stuffed into said animatronics and possess them (the entirety of Springfield Elementary, most notably Bart and Lisa but you could get some milage out of stuffing someone like Milhouse or Ralph as well - imagine the comedy you could get out of Bart & Lisa being Itchy & Scratchy and Millhouse being bitter, not that he was dead, but he was relegated to the Poochie suit)
5) Someone with ties to said franchise who has a history of trying to kill a child... Sideshow Bob makes for the perfect Purple Guy stand-in! You couldn't ask for better.
6) A lovable doofus to play the night guard, screw up constantly and get scared out of his mind, and I think we can all agree Homer fits this role.
That's it. There's your FNAF parody, practically done for you, because the characters and concepts the Simpsons already have in their tool belt would fit the idea of a FnaF parody like a glove. Just do it already! It would be great for fans of FNaF and even be a fun segment for those less familiar with the in-jokes because... it just fits with what the Simpsons already has and is so well that it makes sense for a Treehouse segment regardless! Call it One Night at Krusty's and badabing-badaboom, you're done!
I was thinking of using the cast from Itchy and Scratchy since there would be more characters to turn into animatronics but that’s a good idea too!
@@willnack5315 You can do both! Krusty and Itchy & Scratchy are closely enough intertwined that it makes sense for their animatronics to be at Krusty Burger and for Sideshow Bob to stuff kids into them, a dual revenge on Bart and Krusty at the sametime.
@@RowanDrake47sideshow Bob as Itchtrap
Technically there was an episode of Itchy and Scratchy land as a theme park where all marketable characters were animatronic and then the wiring on them goes nuts and starts going after people. While not FNAF, definitely had the homicidal animatronics.
Making such a realistic horror video is truly a skillful job.
If we go with the "What If" idea, I would like to see an episode where they show what would happen if Ned's parents never took him to the psychiatrist that made him become what he is today and instead he stayed as a very hyperactive and mischievous child.
I would be interesting to see a Bart Simpson version of Ned Flanders and how he would interact with everyone else.
Another interesting "What if" would be: What if Homer never ended up with that crayon in his brain and instead he lived his life while being a genius.
They should use Professor Farnsworth what if machines
I thought the Lisa split personality reveal was underwhelming. Maggie should have been the mastermind in my opinion, accidentally framing Lisa because they look similar. She was also witness to Bart's gruesome murder and became mute from the trauma. Her motive for revenge was laid out as Marge and Homer both died after Bart leaving Lisa and her alone. I kind of wish this segment got the Not It treatment. They could have played up the Nelson/Lisa angle a little more too. He still carries a torch for her only to be murdered by her lookalike.
I'm surprised they brought back Martin's older brother just to kill him off.
Yeah that was a deep cut.
I totally forgot he even had a brother
Making what if versions of old Simpsons episodes is genius! A perfect opportunity for potential Treehouse of Horror segments.
"Eight" was hands down the best segment of this year's TOH, and ranks up there with some of the best TOH segment. (My favorite little detail: the calendar in Lisa's "bedroom" shows October 2023 - exactly 30 years ago in both the show's timeline and IRL.) By comparison, "Wild Barts" was just ok and "Lout Break" was meh.
733 kills? Holy crap, I was way off!
Eight may be my favorite Treehouse of Horror segment of this Treehouse of Horror episode I'd love seeing Adult Lisa try to solve the Murder Mystery till plot twist Lisa became the Psycho Murder to kill Sideshow Bob
Eight is also my too. Sideshow Bob looks🤣 When he’s saw Lisa😈 with a knife.
That Peter Griffin cameo in the clone episode always gets me 🤣
I don't watch Simpsons but I found a clip of the second piece of the treehouse of horror and found it interesting... then ended up here. And your voice carried me through the video before I even realised that I _don't watch this show._ Seriously, your voice is incredible. God I wish I sounded like you XD
Aw thank you! This comment made my day 🥰
u should watch it
Yep I think the Treehouse Horrors should be scary as well as gory.
Eight was pretty scary
Yeah I was screaming so hard when Homer burped on Ned and he burped and burp and HAHAHAHAHA
Oh my god thank you for acknowledging how disappointing the lack of wraparounds is! It just feels emptier without the characters telling each other stories or warning us it'll be "the scariest year ever". Or, of course, Kang and Kodos messing around before announcing the number we're on
I totally agree ! I miss those setups and wrap arounds.👩🏻🦰👍🏻
XOXO and I will
Ngl, this was my favorite one. I actually was scared with this one. Like it's so chilling to see Lisa cutting up Bob, while the original He Remains An Englishman plays in the background while Maggie is just chillin
I loved the if Bob killed Bart and what happens Later segment, cause there was no supernatural attachment just a piece of what could in fact happen "what if" story is excellent. I hope they do another Halloween segment of what could happen if something changed from a previous episode like what if Mr.Burns was killed by Maggie when she shot him?
I would like to see a Treehouse of Horror where all the side characters find out their side characters. then they try to kill Homer to end it or something and the whole episode is all the side characters trying to kill Homer.
This could be fun. Maybe at the end one of them succeeds, causing the episode to immediately end without even playing the credits
I wish they made a entire segment or episode with the classic cell shaded style. It would also be fun if they could add slight grain effects and the colors changing in the characters during movements. This would be a good idea if they decided to parody some classic movie or say that this was a lost episode from 1995!
Lisa watching Bart die genuinely unnerved me.
The one thing I had an issue about in the third segment is that Homer went full Peter Griffin by dooming the world because he wanted everyone to think exactly like him. Even dooming his wife to suffer the same fate as the rest of the infected. And for those who say "Oh he didn't care what she looked like", umm no he was just turned because she looked like him. That's called narcissism and it seems like it came bit out of left field. We all know Homer can be selfish but not to this extreme.
But for some fun, here are some What Ifs I'd like to see:
1) What if Cecil had become Krusty's sidekick instead of Bob?
2) What if the real Seymour Skinner had stayed and Armin just left town for good?
3) What if Martin did die when he fell off the cliff? (This one has the most THOH potential especially if Bart and Lisa both get thrown in juvie. When Bart gets out, he reforms and becomes a police detective while Lisa becomes a serial killer like she did in Ei8ht but only Bart can't bring himself to turn in his sister. Make it a parody of Dexter but it gender bent with Lisa as Dexter and Bart as Debra.)
It was a good THOH but nothing tops last year's.
Nah bart should be a seiral killer, psycho lisa has already been done before, heck even split personality lisa
Well, I was way off but then again I’m not surprised lol! I 10,000% agree with you, Lydia, Eight was an absolutely fantastic segment and honestly could’ve been flushed out to be a whole episode by itself it was really good! I love the idea of what episode I hadn’t thought about that for the Simpsons, but they’re definitely is a lot more beyond the ones you mentioned that could really work for that format. That would be awesome! The first segment was definitely more OK than the third and I agree for them tackling NFTS the way they did it was really smart! I didn’t catch the actual kill count counter in there when I watched the episode I wonder if they did that specifically for you?! 😂 I hope you had a great vacation! I replied to your story, but I don’t think you ever saw it, but I enjoyed the pictures!
Hey Josh, I didn't catch that kill counter the first time I watched it either and I was scratching my head trying to figure out how I'm going to count every train death. When I watched it again on my big screen I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw it 😂
@@TheSimpsonsTheory Hahaha I bet, I can only imagine!
I was literally thinking the same thing when it came to having more "What If?" segments/episodes like what we saw here with "Cape Feare."
- What if Marge HAD had an affair with Jacques, or Homer with Mindy?
- What if no one had shot Mr. Burns and his "supervillainy" continued unabated?
- Any number of Bob's plots going a different way, like what if Bart never cleared Krusty's name, got to Selma in time, or found out about Bob's voter fraud when he ran against Quimby?
- What if Homer had in fact died trying to jump the Springfield Gorge, the family resents Bart, and Bart grows up to be a daredevil, becoming obsessed with increasingly dangerous stunts as a means to "be with his dad" again?
As an aside, I always wondered why Sideshow Bob wasn't after Lisa as well -- you could argue that she had played an even bigger role in SB being disgraced and thrown in prison than Bart did.
I like to think regardless of how old and bland the show has become one consistency is that the treehouse of horror is not bad at worst but top tier at best. Definitely a good one this year
I love almost everything about the Ei8ht segment, from the continuity nods to getting to see Lisa as the villain etc but if you'll permit me a compliment-sandwich for an almost-perfect segment one aspect I didn't like was the "split personality" reveal. This wasn't even because of the way mental illness is villainized or the overuse of the trope (which they comment on), I just don't think it really made sense or added anything to the story. Sure a trauma as deep as seeing her brother be murdered could result in the development of DID and similar disorders, but in terms of the use in the story, I think the exact same beats could be pulled off with Lisa being conscious of the kills the entire time and just consciously acting oblivious in front of the cops and Bob for her plan. The lapse in memory works great in predicaments where the character wouldn't be pretending to be innocent when they're alone, but we never see Lisa in a situation where she would realistically stop acting. Plus, this plan to kill Bob being made consciously the entire time could give her character more agency and explain how she was able to get her cop sister to help her out. The scariest Lisa isn't another being taking over, it's the Lisa we know and love being so passionate about revenge that she turns her stubborn passion to planning intricate murders. It wasn't a huge detail, just felt a bit disappointing. To close out this compliment sandwich I will say I love how recent seasons have employed their ability to emulate the classic-era animation style for these new stories. It gets me every time and it's such a treat
I was pleasantly surprised by this one and the NFT episode didnt feel as dated as i thought it would be
Loutbreak coming just after “Air Force Wong” was…interesting timing. But it also reminded me of the Robin Williams Midas Touch-esque story in FG Viewer Mail 2
Jeez i wouldn't known that lisa would be a murderer this time, as she is the most intelligent character how finds a way out of situations, but she does have some episodes that she is the bad one and this is the second story when lisa have a split personality disaorder in treehouse of horror episodes.
But Eight made lisa simpson stand out, this is a masterpiece and great to have the legendary Kelsey Grammer back as Sideshow Bob.
10/10 if you have different opinions that ok cos this is my opinion. And once again Lydia great video❤❤
In true crime, a lot of the time kids who were bullies in school become figures of authority in adult life. I think that’s what it’s referencing with Nelson etc. It happens a lot in real life as well.
Tbf the police are just adult bullies
We got a pretty great 'what if' last season with what if Bart was never born... 'What ifs' definitely have a lot of potential.
That Maggie twist 😂
9:30 BEST MAGGIE SIMPSON POSE EVER
I really enjoyed this episode the 2nd segment was so awesome. My answer to the question you asked about what movie should get a Treehouse Of Horror parody is Trick R Treat
1000
I think I love having The Simpson's Treehouse of Horror collection only.
Super excited to see what you have in store for us today Lydia. Keep up the great work! 138 kills ? *edit* yikes I was so far off 😂
At this point, you and Dead Meat should’ve made this ‘episode’ as a collaboration 😂
So funny story. I saw the clip of Lisa killing side show Bob and the guard on stand by. I thought she was was Lisa clone until after I saw the episode she was Maggie.
I can’t belive I mistook Maggie for a Lisa clone XD
7:59 This is such a good message to put at the bottom. Bullying is not okay, in any form, digital or physical.
This episode was fantastic! 2 was my favourite too!
I would love to see The Simpsons parody John Carpenter's The Thing. Maybe it could involve the Springfield children getting trapped inside school during the winter (similar to "Skinner's Sense of Snow") with a shape-shifting creature roaming the school halls, looking for its next victim.
I also would absolutely love a parody of Stephen King's Carrie. I know they already did it in the comics but I would love a tv version of it. With Lisa in the leading role again. I see no one else fitting into Carrie's shoes.
And maybe even Squid Game just for fun.
This was an amazing kill count Lydia, thank you for this.
Amazing counting and video, Great Job, Lydia!
Honestly at this point, you and James should definitely do a Treehouse Of Horror Kill Count together!
I read TOH as the owl house lol XD
@@lumityforever Sameee I got confused xD
What ifs would be fun, also loved grown up Maggie, so cool XD
Love this season I thought it wasn’t Lisa
For some reason I thought it was Bart
@@DDarkestKnight same lol
Little correction: the total kills should be 737 as 4 people died while homer was explaining the benefits of a world entirely made of homers: 2 die via car wreck, the paramedic has a heart attack after drinking a soda and dies and the last one is a biker that gets launched by the previous 3 and dies after landing on the ground.
Edit: It has to be 739 as it's shown that Marge and Homer also died as well on the second segment with Marge dying due to grief and Homer dies by choking on a tennis ball.
I'd love for them to parody 13 ghosts. It would be creepy and still have fun moments seeing who they pick as all of the ghosts.
Loved this you did a great job on your take on Dead Meat’s Kill Count I hope he sees it and enjoys it 😁🤗❤️❤️❤️💪🏾been watching your channel for awhile it’s great to meet another female that’s a huge fan of The Simpsons super rare your video breakdowns on the characters are good keep up the great work 💪🏾💐💐💐
I didn’t really care for the NFT episode, but the one with Sideshow Bob and Lisa was my favourite
Mine too.
Same here.
I love your videos so much keep up the good work woman
Saw your video and realized i needed to catch up. So this is right after I watched the episode, then your video.
While not as amazing as last year's Treehouse of horror (really loved the deathnote segment), this still was pretty strong as you said. I agree with your assessments that the middle was likely the strongest and the last the weakest, but still overall enjoyable. Lisa has been getting some good Tree house horror segments lately!
100% would love a few more what ifs, either as treehouse episodes or just a Frink machine episode similar to when Bart and Lisa stumbled into his house and saw their (possible) futures. A big what if for me would be... what if Homer kept his smarts from that episode where he got a crayon taken out of his head (before having moe shove it back up there in the end)?
I agree on your take on the wraparound segments in the early Treehouse of Horror. But some of the non-wraparound openings are cool too, like Gullerimo DelToro's opening segment.
For a fun what if senario.
What if.. Sideshow Bob got away with framing Krusty?
Or what if … the Simpsons actually aged from 1989?( and Maggie spoke as an adult)
Or
1:13 that’s cause those were 45 minutes formatted episodes, but I wish they released that Simpsonized Thriller song
733 kills + 1 as just before Lisa kills Bob she admits to killing Professor Lisa. "But she's gone now. She was my last victim, or rather second last". I know Lisa isn't physically dead but that part of her defiantly is.
I remember seeing the first part of the tree house of horror at work! It seemed hella fun so I’ll have to go and watch it sometime
12:26
I also like how in the last segment of this episode.
Krusty can be seen in the background, also turned into a Homer but he is literally the exact same as he always is.
That why he always has paint-like skin and red nose because without it he looks like homer with dye hair on it
I totally agree since in the episode Homie the Clown, Legs and Louie where completely confused which is the real Krusty since Homer and Krusty share the same design and dressed near exactly the same except the tuff of Krusty's hair since Homer is bald.
Animators had a blast with this episode for sure!
Omg if that NFT kill counter was purposely a nod to you, that would be hilarious.
4:35 when I saw the Kailua, man i thought it was messed up lmao. Like, Kirk's always been a loser dad, but this low?!
I have always been a fan of the ending musical segments in Treehouse of Horror episodes and this was no exception :D
Another amazing video as always, Lydia. I love your work!
The EIGht deaths were brutal. It's impressive how gruesome and creative Lisa did with each of her victim's corpses
7:56 I think what it means is that eventually the bullies will grow out out and change that or it means that some policeman are bullies, you know police brutality
Awsome video lydia
I had just realized that Sideshow Bob is also an older sibling.
Lisa likely wouldn’t have known that in this timeline, as Cecil was introduced in season eight & Bart’s death would’ve been during season five.
Still counts regardless. Even if Cecil came in season 8, it would still count as Cecil would hear about his brothers death.
Love the video. History of a horrible with so much fun and happy you did this video on it and I do agree I wish they did the framing it felt like the stories weren't as smooth as old Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors were. But still great video
What if idea: What if the Simpsons never left Cypress Creek and Homer kept working for Hank Scorpio?
I would love to see this!
I’m so glad Sideshow Bob was back. The one part of so confused as why was he back in jail? And of course, now he’s old and I’m sad that his palm tree hair is gone.
That became these Treehouse of Horror episodes are non-canon. Basically there not apart of any episodes. Which is why Sideshow Bob is back in prison and is old.
I Would Like To See A What If Simpsons Episode.
I really love the 2 segments. It was the best one of all it just show that Lisa his a lot of angry and psychopath in her.
It's so honestly unsettling seeing Lisa be really violent lol. That's really outside of her character. Also, I knew it what a matter of time because they poked fun at the NFT/Crypto stuff. And finally, that last segment of the Treehouse of Horror episode, had me left on a cliffhanger in my honest opinion. Hopefully Bart, Lisa and Maggie can somehow find a way to cure the whole world from that.
You know Lout Break is my favorite 🤩 segment of Treehouse of Horror 34 where everyone in Springfield gets turned into Homers
Did you Enjoy it, Lydia? Because I HAD! And I REALLY appreciated the Homer Plague Segment!
People are talking about how homer doesn't choke Bart anymore....but in that episode Homer VanHouten was choking Homerhouse (kirk VanHouten choking Milhouse) lol
if I’m being honest ei8ht is my new favourite toh segment
My ranking
1 cool animations outside the train and kinda liked it
2 I really liked the beginning and it was very good overalls
3 mostly funny and not the usual
Kill count guess? Around 50 probably
Lisa becoming an investigator/kill is funny when you consider her voice actress Yeardly Smith has a True Crime podcast with her husband and brother-in-law, both former law enforcement.
How many kills are there now, in total for all the treehouse of horrors
I have some What If ideas for The Simpsons.
1. What if Bart, Lisa, and Maggie actually get infected and turned into Homers despite already having their father's DNA? Also, Moe will get infected by the burping gas despite having a plastic mask over his face. (Note: This is from the third segment, "Lout Break")
2. What if Maude doesn't die?
3. What if Chalmers was furious at Shauna for her actions?
4. What if Bart doesn't pranks on anyone?
5. What if Kirk and Luann are not getting remarried?
6. What if Milhouse was never born?
7. What if Skinner gets revenge on Marge for hitting him on the face with her wet hair? (Note: This is from the episode "Fears of a Clown")
8. What if Shauna had a tragic story?
9. What if Ms. Cantwell become a killer of Lisa? (Note: It's after the event of the episode "Black-Eyed, Please")
10. What if Skinner and Chalmers didn't get banned from Air Cincinnati?
I hope you like it, Lydia.
I bet Lisa killed those victum on purpose just to get herself arrested and sent to prison just to get revenge on Sideshow Bob for killing Bart.
Given the creative nature of 8 I would love to see how Groundskeeper Willie travelled through various universe to reach and attempt to rescue Homer in the segment Time & Punishment.
I don't really have a what if idea, but a possible treehouse of horror segment: Homer is getting attention from lots of women in town as well as those he's met previously and marge gets jealous and thinks either Homer is cheating on her or wants to divorce. This jealousy turns into murder as she kills each and every one of them in gruesome ways.
Ngl this is the best treehouse of horror in a while
I have an idea for a Treehouse of horror segment: Final D'ohstination, After Lisa forsees a disaster during a school field trip, the kids of Springfield elementary must work together to stave off death's designs. with mixed results success wise.
I'm surprised they didn't make a final destination parody
The Simpson's plot immunity in normal episodes: Deadpool
The Simpson's plot immunity in October: Happy Tree Friends
The Homer burp clones not only reminded me of “send in the clones”, but also of the one where he eats a space blob and turns into a giant blob himself, with the whole “Homer’s eaten something he DEFINITELY shouldn’t have and now it’s having crazy SiFi effects on him”
This video is over 13 minutes, and I click it 13 hours after upload, it is perfect for a Halloween special
Kelsey Grammer definitely is brilliant as Sideshow Bob, and I think he brings in a bit of Fraiser as well
Hey love your videos! im a simpsons fanatic also. just came across your channel! watching some past videos of yours right now 😎 i did have a question though ⬇️
Have you played simpsons tapped out?? Im sure youve played or heard of it.. but wanted to suggest possibly making some tapped out videos on your channel🤔 just a suggestion!
I recently started my youtube journey. Starting my channel with Tapped out videos lol
Technically in 'Lout Break' you missed four deaths.
Hibbert (Homerized) crashed into a hydrant sending and crushed Lindsey (Homerized), a random citizen (Homer-clone) dies of a heart attack and Smithers (Homerized) possibly dies after crashing into the pile of corpses.
Also society would count, since it collapsed after Homer refused to give his DNA.
If Abe Simpson was in this segment then he'd possibly be immune and (I know its non-canon and if he made a cameo) Frank "Grimey" Grimes would kill himself than rather become infected with a Homer virus.
Proof that Lisa and Maggie truely loved Bart
