My favourite of his glasses are the ones with real eyes painted on. The ones he wears in court, when he's on jury duty, and then falls he asleep with them on. The shot of him, asleep on the jury bench, with those fake-eyes glasses on and a bit of drool coming out of his open mouth, is probably my favourite shot in Simpsons history.
I think my favorite aspect is that Wiggum outright tells Homer that they have no case against him if he doesn't bring the auto-dialer to court and then at the end it shows that while he's pulling another scam, he still had brought it anyway.
The levels of genius in old school simpsons is through the roof. The fact that the police half-assed the job and asked homer to bring the autodialer to court instead of just taking it there and then. And the fact that the court ordered homer to basically annoy everyone by saying sorry for annoying them in the first place. It worked then and I'm sure it would work now.
and the fact that Homer was told to bring the autodiler or he'd get off scot free and actually did as he was ordered to apologise, then had the genius thought to try it again.
I like to think that Wiggum told homer to bring the auto dialer because when Wiggum threw it out it meant there was no case against Jimmy the scum bag. It would be just like him to throw out evidence that could ensure a conviction.
Things that are perfect about the Frink clip: -he's playing chess against a robot he built but has to correct its move -he answers the phone with just "Lab" -the speed with which he recognizes that it's his autodialer on the other end -how he calls Homer's scam "sad and alarming" -he knows the code for the wheel activation off by heart -he first programmed and built wheels that can be activated remotely like that -his bleghhh Pure gold.
I also love the fact that the autodialer clearly came equipped with a GPS, compass, and obstacle sensors since it knew exactly how to exit the home and go to Frink's house. Which then also means it either connects with a GPS satellite or Wi-Fi, LOL.
if a auto dialer dialed 5000 numbers and asked for 1$ each call but only 47% of the people paid a dollar and 15% of those people put in a extra dollar, how much money did the auto dialer make?
You can see the cat sleeping on it at the end and hitting the redial button constantly with its tail. Its just a funny coincidence that it happened to be flanders' number lol
I like how wholesome Frink is about it, he's happy cause he recognises the machine, he made it for a useful and fun purpose, informing children of snow days and he's upset its being used wrong not just for the moral aspect but because he feels its an affront to the machine's dignity and then he tries to steal it back presumably to put it to better use.
Early one Saturday morning there was a jackhammer working in my back street. It finishes and some kid shouts "Will you shut up, some people are trying to sleep!" This was only about 5 years ago. The Simpsons is still semi-relevant

I love how Homer didn't think that annoying people and then giving his home address wouldn't blow up in his face. Anyone else would've gotten a PO box, at least.
@@carultch The way the cat was sleeping o it probably had part of its weight resting on the redial button. The tail was just swinging over the status light.
I don't think I've seen anyone in the comments mention this yet: I love how Frink originally designed the autodialer to alert school children about snow days... But a single snow day would probably be long over by the time the dialer called every home with children in a city that big. Maybe it was meant for very small towns... EDIT: Okay I did the math. I picked a US city that sounds about as large as Springfield (my hometown of Tucson AZ) and multiplied the number of homes with children (300,000 - 30% of the total 1mil population) to, give or take, a 30 second phone call including ringing, person picking up, and a short message that today is a snow day. That clocks in at a little over 100 days to take the dialer to call everyone. Even 20 seconds for each call would take 70 days. So yeah, I'm thinking the autodialer might've been invented for very small towns with like 100 people. Also I must have a sad and alarming amount of free time on my hands to do this.
Although the autodialer need only call the houses affiliated with the particular school where it was stationed. Presumably each school would have at least one.
I actually think they are many, maybe? Frink had it patented for schools so they are in the market, that would also explain how the original telemarketing scheme got one
lmao the funniest part of the entire simpsons is when frink remotely sends the autodialer on a return home mission and it deploys wheels on extended legs and homer sees it rolling out the front door and unquestioningly chases it down and simply breaks the legs off to keep it from happening again
Homer's lack of surprise about the autodialer's legs is actually in keeping with a key character trait my father pointed out to me, years back. Homer, at least in the classic years, has a tendency to take whatever he observes in the moment at face value. Even if it goes against what, even for him, would have had to have already been well established. The most immediate example I think of is the one Dad and I were discussing at the time; the "Maggie lost her baby legs!" Treehouse of Horror scene. Logically, Homer should know from personal experience that people don't shed their "baby legs" to sprout adult ones, but drawing this from memory would take more mental energy than someone as chronically lazy as he is, is willing to put in. Ergo, he instead draws on what's happening in the moment: she's started growing her "first tooth", and her legs have now come off, so this must be another developmental milestone she's achieving. One of those character layers that gets funnier as you think about it, and then watch it in action. Like in this scene. 😂
Duuuuh . . . why do you think in real life the phone scammers repeatedly call all the old people ? Alzheimer's, Dementia, Democratic voters . . . . etc. etc.
the fact homer still manages to pull a slightly different telemarketing scam after his court appearance is comedy gold to me (as is classic simpsons in general).
I always love that in the credits that the court ordered Homer to use the autodialer to apologize to everyone for the original telemarketing scam only to run another scam using "Sorry Dude". Only Homer would do that 😄😄😄😄
The part where Homer says "no you don't" (2:34), has stuck in my mind, and I repeat in my mind when something similar happens. Though it is a little to arrogant to say out loud lol.
"Eh. Oh. That's an autodialer. This bird was using it to pull a telemarketing scam but instead he's gonna rot in the slammer for the next 20 years. Bread and water, icy showers, guards whapping you ass around the clock and the only way out is suicideee..." "Telemarketing ehhhh."
I think the funniest part is that he still pulls the same scam after being told to apologize to the entire town. In my opinion, the best season for the Simpson’s was season 8
I think you missed the point of that scene. It's funny because of how greedy and heartless he is that he'd rather keep 1 dollar despite having millions of dollar despite the fact he could be granted eternal happiness. And even though he seems intrigued he still says fuck it
I love how my phone now goes off 10 plus times a day and this is the case, and the government just doesn't care. Sorry Homer, you were ahead of your time.
this just made me realise we haven't seen Homer wear his glasses in years. He used to put them on from time to time in older episodes but it seems like they just totally forgot about it.
I love how homer was not taken aback by his auto-dialer growing legs and running away it’s almost like this is some sort of fictional cartoon or something.
Waiting for these episodes as a child at 7.30pm on Sky One, followed by a Futurama double bill. Absolutely brilliant show. Should have ended years ago though, new ones are awful
I love it when Homer wears glasses that he apparently needs sometimes even though it was previously established that he does not require glasses when he found Henry Kissinger's in the toilet.
I like how Wiggum got dialed by the machine several times, Homer said his address in the message, and they didn't stop it until they went to the Simpsons home for a completely different reason.
I like that running gag in all cartoons when they acknowledge the ridiculous thing that happens and just point it out, in this case the chief of police thing. In 4th-8th season Simpsons they point out how Homer has way too much free time to have a full time job lol
I love how Homer never questions how the autodialer grew wheels and tried to run away
lmao at him chasing the auto dialer and then walking calmly back into the house with it

Although the autodialer need only call the houses affiliated with the particular school where it was stationed. Presumably each school would have at least one.

@@Sam42069 Yours haven't?
Homer is such a monster that he deliberately put the autodialer on redial on Flanders' number.
Inviting the recipient of the call to look as happy as someone they can't see is a brilliant bit of comedic nuance.
I love how the autodialler tried to drive away and Homer literally didn’t care why😂😂
You idiot it's not a bloody vehicle
It's got legs that Homer snaps off
And the front door is randomly open 😆
"Eh. Oh. That's an autodialer. This bird was using it to pull a telemarketing scam but instead he's gonna rot in the slammer for the next 20 years. Bread and water, icy showers, guards whapping you ass around the clock and the only way out is suicideee..."
"Telemarketing ehhhh."
I think the funniest part is that he still pulls the same scam after being told to apologize to the entire town. In my opinion, the best season for the Simpson’s was season 8
You have the power
That Mr. Burns scene is so sweet and interesting. "I'd be happier with the dollar" isn't a bad attitude to have.
you're mr burns you dont f with mr smithers
I think you missed the point of that scene. It's funny because of how greedy and heartless he is that he'd rather keep 1 dollar despite having millions of dollar despite the fact he could be granted eternal happiness. And even though he seems intrigued he still says fuck it
I love how my phone now goes off 10 plus times a day and this is the case, and the government just doesn't care. Sorry Homer, you were ahead of your time.
“Got me out of the shower seven times!” Haha 😂
Ever heard of an answering machine? 😂
He said bath... Who gets out the shower to answer the phone? 🤣
Bruh, Wiggum said *bath*
@@philbecker4676 Wiggum left his bath
Seven!!
this just made me realise we haven't seen Homer wear his glasses in years. He used to put them on from time to time in older episodes but it seems like they just totally forgot about it.
He wears then occasionally when reading in modern episodes.
I presume he does not need them as much due to laser eye surgery.
1:20 Never expected Burns to be relateable to Millennials.
I love how Homer opens the audio only scam with "Do you wish to *look* as happy as me?"
Didn't Grandpa recognise Homer's address though
Arse Robinson He’s senile.
Logan Meek grampa's voice: I'm senile? That means I'm never going to die.
Let alone Ned Flanders? Plus Homer's voice since they're both neighbors...
Mr burns should have known homers voice
Milli Macro yes. maybe he and Abe knew who the "happy dude" is
LMAO. Hey who shot the autodailler???I mean Marge’s autodialler.
Gosh this made me laugh so much. When the machine started rolling away unplugged and he broke the legs off!😂😂😂
Melody Johnson Let's get ya home to Frinky
I like it when the scientists knows it's his machine :)
That’s Professor Frink.
I love how homer was not taken aback by his auto-dialer growing legs and running away it’s almost like this is some sort of fictional cartoon or something.
"I had a feeling we'd find you here!"
The pre-recorded message: **includes the Simpson's full address**
The joke with the autodialer growing wheels and Homer chasing after it then snapping them off gave me a good long laugh, holy moly.
Homer on Autodialer: Greetings, Friend?
Ned: Dang!
Homer on Autodailer: Greetings, Friend.
Ned: Shoot!
Waiting for these episodes as a child at 7.30pm on Sky One, followed by a Futurama double bill. Absolutely brilliant show. Should have ended years ago though, new ones are awful
I love it when Homer wears glasses that he apparently needs sometimes even though it was previously established that he does not require glasses when he found Henry Kissinger's in the toilet.
The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side.
@@KTK44 that's a right triangle you idiot.
@KTK44 that’s a right triangle ya idiot!
I love how the other guy is arrested for it and Homer gets a ticket for the same crime
I love the detail that Mr.Burns answers the phone like that because that’s the way Alexander Graham Bell intended for people to answer the phone
Homer's side stories are always funnier than the main topic of the episode. 🤣🤣🤣
2:43 Snowball 2 looks soo cute sleeping on the autodialer 😍😄
3:14 brilliant. Makes me laugh every time.
the way Homer broke the autodialer's legs was hilarious
I love this. The autodialer was always one of my all-time favorite jokes hahaha
I like how Wiggum got dialed by the machine several times, Homer said his address in the message, and they didn't stop it until they went to the Simpsons home for a completely different reason.
I miss this kind of cartoon logic. Shows nowadays tend to be more down-to-earth and "plot perfect".
3:13 i love the irony here
Something is oddly charming to me about Burns twirling the phone cord around his finger.
I like that running gag in all cartoons when they acknowledge the ridiculous thing that happens and just point it out, in this case the chief of police thing. In 4th-8th season Simpsons they point out how Homer has way too much free time to have a full time job lol
