When I was younger, I asked my dad why The Simpsons were doing Who Shot Mr. Burns. He told me, somewhat cynically, that it's because not that many people watched Season 5. Which was kind of a crazy sentiment to me, since Homer had just gone into space and all. I don't know why I remember that exchange from back then, but that idea kinda stuck with me over the years. They couldn't top Homer going into space, spectacle wise, but Season 6 would find different ways to raise the stakes.
I gotta get me some of those Gloria Vanderbilt blue jeans! I always wear black jeans but man they are off the hook! ;) 501's aint got shit! Lol. Cheers Jim. Have a sound weekend man.
TheRealJims I guess your papa reasoned that explaining The Who killed JR reference would be tiresome for him. Bonus points if he speculated that the internet would make it easy for his boy to find that information for himself.
There's a joke in the rock bottom episode where they have to run off a really fast moving list of corrections after Homer is proven innocent. if you pause it and try to read the list as its running off there's a line that says "if you're reading this, you have no life". never been so personally attacked by anything in a tv show but it was great, just shows how much humour they used to be able to cram into every episode.
Def one of the most iconic and memorable seasons of the simpsons, period. The amount of good episodes in it is no joke. Looking forward to your review of S8
That scene used to freak me out as a kid too. I wondered to my lil kid self, “how the hell do you go through your whole life and only one person shows up at your funeral? And even the PREACHER mispronounces your name!” Simpsons always helped me think deep thoughts as a kid lol 😆
I occasionally wonder how different the series would have been had they not hit the reset button at the end of "The Springfield Connection" and let Marge remain a cop for the rest of the series.
When things started getting stale around Season 11-12 would've been the perfect time to stop returning everything to the status quo at the end of each episode. I obviously say that in hindsight though. No matter what, the first 10 seasons will always be a legendary run of television, especially seasons 3-9.
Damn, that would’ve been cool!! But I imagine, eventually, Marge would’ve either been murdered by a crooked cop or murdered a crooked cop herself. I dunno, but that’s my estimate.
This is my favourite season in all of television. This was the peak of The Simpsons’ cleverness, producing so many jokes that we’re just expected to know, but it was also a really warm season. It wasn’t difficult to be enveloped by the characters and town of Springfield. You mentioned that a lot of characters had major spotlights this year, and I think that’s because Season 6 was the best at making Springfield feel like a planet. So many episodes like Bart’s Comet, A Star is Burns and Who Shot Mr Burns? Part One were made, that gave you this mini grand tour of Springfield alongside the usual Simpsons antics. While this was always a strength of the series from Season 3 (where side characters could be fully trusted to carry a plot) up to Season 10 (where nearly every episode had to focus on Captain Wacky for some reason), 6 was the tip of the bell curve in that and so many ways.
Mr. Jims your silence only incriminates you further. No, Mr Jims don't take your anger out on me! Mr. Jims! NOOOOOOOOO! *Dramatization may not have happened*
This is hour 57 of our live round the clock coverage outside the JIms estate Remember to tun in at 8 O'Clock for highlights of today's visual including when the garbage man came and when Realjims put the cat out, possibly because it was harassed, we don't know! 'course there's now way to see into TheRealjim's home without some kind of infared heat sensitive camera, so let's turn it on. *BZZT* Now, this technology is new to me, but IIII'm prrrretty suuure that's Realjims in the oven, rotating slowly, his body temperature has risen to over 400 degrees, he's literally stewing in his own JUICES!! Now here are some results of FaceBook poll, 95% believe RealJims is guilty! Of course this is just an internet poll and is not legally binding.... unless proposition 1337 passes and we all pray it will!!
Season 5 is my favorite season of the Simpsons, but that's because of the chill atmosphere that was mentioned. But I totally get why others would think Season 6 is the best one. As said, it was able to get what each of the previous seasons did best and get the recipe just right. Maybe that is why it's a lot of people's favorites. Everything that the Simpsons was known for doing was distilled into pure perfection in this season. Really looking forward to the retrospective on season 7...and especially 8. Season 8 is a very odd beast, IMO, because it's definitely the inflection point of the show's history. While it's still clearly in the classic era of the Simpsons, many of the problems that people had about the modern era start to seep in. All of this would have been forgivable had it been the final season, or the penultimate season. Season 8 is pretty much DEFINED by the sense that the show is winding down. You don't make episodes like the Spin-Off Showcase or the Itchy, Scratchy and Poochie Show if you don't see the end in sight. And you don't make episodes like Homer's Enemy if you don't sense the show has gotten too wacky and drifted away from its original vision.
5 might be mine purely just because that was the season I had on dvd when I was like 9, it was when I latched onto the show, and it was the only set of episodes I didn’t absorb purely through osmosis or tv reruns.
My family has used “You got THE DUD!” as a family joke for decades. My cousin got married recently, brought her new husband over, my brother nudges me in the ribs while they’re STILL in the room and mumbles, “You got the DUD!” 😂
best 2 seasons. 4 then 6 imo...it almost was the peak of writing....name me one bad episode in season 6 besides the clip show...its damn near perfect...it legit has an insane amount of episodes we all love...
Man, I hope you know how much I love and respect your channel. Consistent, quality content, thorough research and you deliver it in such a palatable way. Nice to hear a perspective from someone as fanatic as me. Keep it up, I binge the hell out of your videos 👍🏼
My personal favorite season. Seasons 4 and 7 have episodes and individual moments I enjoy more, but Season 6 is just so consistently solid across the board.
season 6 started with a summer episode. season 6 ended off with who shot mr burns part 1 season 7 started off with who shot mr burns part 2 season 7 ended off with a summer episode
season 6 feels more tamed in comparison, season 4 was just wild and almost unfair to compare to..it legit is the best 90's t.v. show season of the decade and one of the best sitcom seasons of t.v. ever made..its the best animated sitcom season ever imo...season 6 with new staff and no drugs coming close to it is a accomplishment in itself...seriously no joke ...
It's great to see another one of these retrospectives again. You always do a great job of providing a deep analysis of what makes a season good, and you often times bring up perspectives I never would have thought of. I cannot wait to see the top 10, and the retrospective for Season 7 which is my favorite season of the series. Great job as always dude.
Season 6 has always been my favourite. It was the first one I ever bought on DVD. That plastic Homer head. "Beware the Ides of March." "No." Great show, Jimbo. Keep em comin!
I just wanted to tell you I love these season retrospective videos. It’s nice to see someone talk about how each season is different and how The Simpsons changed with the different showrunners. I’d love to see a video detailing each Simpsons “era” if you ever get the time for that!
I'm surprised that you can talk about this season for 20 minutes straight and not mention how many episode titles are just "character vs. something". I forgive their laziness with their titles considering how well-made the episodes themselves are.
Felix Morrissey I know now a days with the guide feature on our dvrs and our lists on Disney plus now showing the episode titles prominently; but you’d have to go through great lengths to find episode titles back then as they were just listed at the end card after the credits. I don’t even think TV guide listed episode titles, just the names of shows and the times. And come on, what kid was reading that stuff?
Its going to be impossible to choose only ten from season six... goood friggen luck :/ haha. Personally, _Bart of Darkness_ & _Lemon of Troy_ would *have* to be on my list. Those are two episodes that just completely suck me in each time & just really have some classic bits. I love how unique & funny the plots are & how well they depict each character's personalities. Also, I have a huge bias for the Lisa/Bart/children-of-Springfeild-centered episodes. Also _Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy_ is sooooo good. Like, what a silly & unique plot 🤣. But, as far as what others would deem "classic Simpsons episodes" and those that are meme'd and more remembered/referenced in popular culture ... my picks might not align with that? From what I've seen, the more popculture mainstays would be like, _Who Shot Mr. Burns (I),_ _Bart vs. Australia,_ & _Two Dozen and One Greyhounds._
I just looked and it's impossible for me. Top twenty if all twenty are presented in no real order due to all being great I could do but that's about it.
Season 6 is my favorite season for the exact reasons you mentioned. I also think its "Treehouse of Horror" is the show's best. All three segments are iconic (The Shinning, Time & Punishment, Nightmare Cafeteria).
This was an amazing analysis! Your transitions into each segment and the overall organization is superb. As someone who had watched Season 6 (I still remember the DVD case being shaped like Homer's head) as a kid in the early 2000's, you have pointed out so many themes I never really thought of before. Season 6 is ultimately my favorite season of the show, with 3 and 4 in a tie for a close second. I love the emotional impact of many of the episodes, the Lisa and Marge episodes this season were some of my favorites and the Treehouse of Horror was fun (my favorite right behind the Season 4 Treehouse of Horror). I do love the episodes that focus on side characters like Skinner, Apu, Krabappel, etc but the family and extended focused episodes that S6 had a lot of are my favorite. Again great job on this!
The PTA disbands would definitely be on my top 10. I love the satirical take on how school funding gets used as for political pawns and to see how Bart and Lisa both react differently to the same situation. The whole Prepetual motion machine joke is one of my favourites in all of Simpsons history. If you let Bart run wild, be becomes some weird creep who flies kites at night, and Lisa literally breaks the laws of physics so she can be challenged. In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!
I have so much love for this season. It was my first simpsons dvd set, it's the season I consistently laugh the most to, has my favorite treehouse of horror episode, and it arguably has one of the most creative 2 part episodes to every air on tv!
Thank you so much for these retrospects! I love these earlier seasons yet you point out so many things I never picked up on in terms of structure, themes and characterisation!
80% of season 6 is fantastic....only 5 of the 25 episodes are not iconic and even so 3 of those 5 imo are fine aka fear of flying grampa vs sexual inadequacy and a star is burns...they aren't great episodes but their funny enough on first viewing....the clip show is...well a clip show but its ok I guess.....the only meh episode of the season is homer vs patty and selma...really didn't care for it
This is honestly my favourite season of the Simpsons, it clearly fights with season 4 and 7, but achieves to have the upper hand. The Mirkin seasons to me feel like doing their own thing having their own formula why the work. I love them
Thank you for all these Retrospectives. With your insightful analysis of each season, you've added whole new layers of enjoyment for me. I loved these episodes before. Now I love them at an even deeper level. Viva la Simpsons! Keep going!
Another great video! I love the length, your analysis is always spot-on so it always leaves me with something to chew on, so to speak! Keep up the great work!
Watching the two parter of who shot mr burns while high is the craziest mind bending cartoon experience I've ever had and makes you believe literally any character could have done it, spectacular writing.
I was just about to fall asleep and was autoplaying all your videos for background noise (no offense but your the combination of your voice and the choice of music makes your videos really relaxing) and i realized this was new.
this is the season i always default to as "my favorite". i'm not sure i've ever really sat down and thought about which is my favorite, though. 6 is just kind of my "yeah season 6 was great i'll pick it" choice. also wanna say i'm so glad this channel learnt me the phrase "screw the audience jokes". i love them so much and that's the perfect way to describe them.
Season 6 has always been my favorite. It had so many bangers. Also thank you, you were the reason why I started watching the in the first place. I don't know why, I watched all your videos without watching the show for a while, but I watched the Simpsons and now I finally understand why people love it 😊
Thanks for all of the comfy videos. Sometimes I like to fall asleep while listening into your reviews. But unlike most channels I want to rewatch them again in the morning so I actually know what you said.
you could argue that this season starts an important character arc for Homer, in that it's the first time he ever talked about wanting to move under the sea! Earlier seasons had hinted at Homer's passion for the ocean. When he's giving Lisa advice on how to politely rebuff Ralph he suggests saying "I'm married to the sea". But this is the first time he actually indicated a desire to live there - and he eventually did, as of the episode set in the future, where he has a house underwater. I feel like if Phil Hartman had lived longer, we might have gotten an episode where Homer and Troy would have bonded over their mutual love of the sea and their, um, appetites for its creatures. (Remember, it's common knowledge that Troy McClure "sleeps with the fishes"). Maybe Homer and Troy would have teamed up with the sea captain for some kind of adventure.
Season 6 is stupendous! I love Bart’s whacky pranks and the dramatic mystery plots! Terrific review! Also love those season 6 guest stars! They are amazing. I’m a huge fan both Allison and Jessica Lovejoy! Too bad they never got sequel episodes. However yes I love hearing praise for this Season!
Season 13 has been a favorite of mine since i was a kid, It has so many good episodes and my favorite simpsons joke; when moe is like "hey they stole my bit!" and then pulls out his tin foil brain scanner and says "YEP! Word for word!". I'm excited to see how you rank them!
Season 6 is my favourite. Whatever the style, it is just the most perfect run of very funny episodes. The balance of satire, parody, pop culture refences, observational humour , cutaway gags, excellent puns and witty word play and funny characters. It both goes very surreal in it's plots and stays very human in the character interactions. The irony is balanced with heart and it feels genuine. Season 6 balanced out subversive humour and wonderful character or plot payoffs and everyone gets an excellent moment. And it always feels in character. It's like the perfect blend of seasons 3, 4 and 5. And I was just such high quality, sharp and clever. Everything works, it never feels forced and flows organically, all the jokes land and there is a lot of them. It's close to perfect.
The Simpsons phenomenon peaked in the spring of 1995, along with the second half of season 6 which has some of the best episodes of TV produced. Everything came together so well with this season that one could argue that this was the peak. After season 6 things felt different in a way that is hard to describe.
One of may favourite Simpsons lines of all time occurs this season, in the episode "The PTA disbands", Lisa has invented a perpetual motion machine and Homer tells her off by saying "In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics"
You know, it's odd, a lot of people will more than likely just lump anything from season 1 (or season 3) through season 9 (or whatever arbitrary cut-off point people decided The Simpsons "stopped being good") as just "the classic era" and don't bother breaking things down season by season. The way you put things in perspective, in particular describing this season, really helps put things in perspective and paints a picture of how the staff behind the show changed and evolved with each new season. Season 6 definitely feels like the season of drama, intrigue, conspiracy and mystery, which feels obvious now that I'm looking at it specifically, but I feel like most people who just look back on The Simpsons as a homogeneous "good era" will miss that.
Saw this video go up last night and was hyped to dive right in but alas an early morning meant I had to save it as motivation to start the day. Totally worth it and can already tell it's going to be a great day.
I can’t wait to see how you analyze the more recent seasons. There is so much great stuff in the later seasons that gets put to the side because it’s become a meme to call it a bad show these days.
I'm just realising how much season 6 defined my type of humour, makes sense as I grew up with it. But I didn't think about seasons as a kid, just enjoyed what came. My fave moment (at the top of my head) is probably the lemon shaped rock.
This my favorite season as it has so many brilliant episodes that balance the great Simpsons comedy with giving it so much heart creating a stronger impact then I would have expected.
This season is definitely one of my most favorites. I mean it had many iconic jokes and moments in it. Just to name a few: " I was saying boo-urns." , " I said ha ha.", " come on bort. Are you talking to me? No. I also have a son named bort." And I also like how it's the only season that ends with the famous cliff hanger, "Who shot mr. Burns?" It's definitely a classic.
I think this is up there as my favorite season. It’s tied with season one, but they’re so different that I don’t know if there’s any comparison. I honestly just love scheming, conspiracies, neuroticism, paranoia, all that sort of stuff. I mean, they do both have good Hermann episodes, so maybe that’s a factor.
season 6 has the best treehouse of horror it has a future episode one of many a flashback keeping that tradition alive the first two simpsons travel episodes and the best 2 imo it has the first 2 parter its premiere feels like one with its tone unlike most of them it has a sideshow bob episode after we got one last season which they hadn't done up to that point starting a tradition of one every year for a while it killed of a character ….it did so much with its 25 episode pallet
I'm glad to know it's not just me. I always loved watching the Simpsons and when Christmas came around when I was in the 7th grade my mom got me Season 6 on DVD and I watched it nonstop and it's always been my personal favorite season next to 9.
...So here we are at last. Season 6 of The Simpsons. *The **_Legendary_** Season 6. Of The Simpsons.* The way I see it, there will never, _ever_ be another show like Season 6 of The Simpsons. Season 6 is life. Season 6 is love. Season 6 is pure television perfection in animated sitcom form. An undisputed masterpiece. This is _The Empire Strikes Back,_ or better yet, the _Citizen Kane_ of this already phenomenally funny, intelligent and thought-provoking series. A show that absolutely killed in the realm of 90s pop culture, still remembered and loved to this day, unlike that unfunny cartoon about the yellow family that currently airs on FOX that abuses glorified celebrity cameos and other attempts at ratings traps. But this truly is where the writers and artists alike absolutely perfected everything that made Simpsons episodes great. All of the most memorable humor, and plots alike are polished to perfection here. Like a good comedy movie, they've achieved an almost yin-yang-like balance of comedy and earnest emotion in this season. Don't get me wrong, the Simpsons will always be a comedy show first and foremost, but this era of the show is _dark._ And in all of the best possible ways. It plays with the expectations of the audience (or screws them, you might say) and keeps everyone on board on their toes. Remember when Lisa, out of jealousy, tried to sabotage Alison's diorama? Nope, gotcha, she feels remorse and dramatically reveals the location of Alison's project, a clever homage to Edgar Allen Poe's _The Telltale Heart._ Homer wants to join the Stonecutters club but gets kicked out? GOTCHA, turns out he's got a Stonecutters birthmark on his rear end, so he can join after all. It's a rock that looks like a lemon? GOTCHA! There's a lemon behind that rock! The tree! Everyone in Springfield is a suspect for shooting Mr. Burns? GOTCHA, turns out it was the baby. Cough. Anyway the point is this is the ultimate screw the audience season, one of the rules of thumb for clever, nuanced writing, and a show with unique sensibilities that actively avoids retreading the beaten path. As noted in this video, satire is in full force here in the middle of the Mirkin era. A good standout to me is the always-hilarious _Homer Badman,_ in which everyone in Springfield just will not let Homer live down the accidental case of sexual harassment. Great commentary on how the media can often blow things way out of proportion, a message which very much holds true today. How about when everybody starts a riot over a hockey game? The people of Australia, blinded by nationalist pride, gets deeply offended by a 10-year old boy making prank calls over the phone? Bart falling in love with a girl who turns out to be an even bigger hellion than himself, but even when she is punished in the end, he still lets her step all over him because she's cute? Yeah, okay, a modern society like our own certainly needs a show like this, now more than ever to drop some cartoon axes on our heads every once in a while. Well played, season 6. Well played indeed. Some of the most iconic moments of the show are present here, as it turns out. Timeless memes like "Man Getting Hit by Football", "Urge to kill...RISING!", "Do it for her", and of course, the unsung pop culture staple, "I see you've played Knifey Spooney before." What a classic year in television history! Pardon this Goliath of a comment filled with nothing but relentless gushing, but Season 6 of the Simpsons means just _that much_ to me, on a personal level. I was born in 1994, and watched the Simpsons religiously along with my parents since I was a baby. _This_ is the exact era of the Simpsons that I grew up with, and loved since the beginning, a show I've known my whole life, that continues to inspire my sense of humor, and me as a person, to this very day. It's amazing how vividly I can still subconsciously remember moments and jokes from these episodes even as far back as the dates on which they originally aired that we recorded on tape. I remember when everybody got crammed into Ned's bomb shelter. I remember when the Itchy and Scratchy Land robots started attacking. I remember Bart's epic quest to take the lemon tree back from Shelbyville with the eventual aid of his friends and family. I remember when Mr. Burns got shot, and passed out on the sundial. This season is one of my most treasured childhood memories. Looking back at how brilliant it was and still is fills me with pride. Although Season 7 is another worthy contender for best season of the show and contains many of my other all-time favorites, including my favorite episode of the whole show (22 Short Films About Springfield), Season 6 is my favorite season of The Simpsons, overall. What a legendary show!! If you are reading this, you have no life.
I was 13 for this season. How fortunate I was to be at that age when such a milestone show was at it's absolute peak and getting to watch it and witness it's cultural impact on a weekly basis.
I remember not liking a lot of Season Six episodes as a kid, they seemed to have a meaner edge to them than the other classic seasons (especially Bart who seems to keep getting screwed over). Basically Season Five without a lot of the laxness or stupid poetic justice to balance it out. I also think some of the meta stuff was getting a bit forced and cheesy by this point, not NEARLY as bad as post-classic era but it was the beginning of the end for earnest in-universe characterisation in the show. Looking back, I think this still stands a little, though I think when a good joke is there, it hits really well. Homer Badman torments Homer relentlessly for example but it works because the satire and melodrama is hilarious. The Halloween special is also one of the most brutal, but perfect in how ridiculously handled it all is.
I think I was the first like 😮 lol. Anyways great video, I always love these season reviews and analysis. Especially as this is one of my favorite seasons.
Homer Badman is an episode so far ahead of its time not just the general topic but also the comments on the importance of context in discussion, and how media fails to represent it.
Season 6 is my favorite season. Lemon of Troy and Bart's Comet are two of my all-time favorite episodes. Homer the Great, Sideshow Bob Roberts, and Itchy & Scratchy Land are classics. Marge looks more attractive in her police uniform. The only real stain is a clip show.
David Mirkin was an amazing executive producer he n his team of writers wrote two solid seasons n I love his commentaries on the Simpsons seasons 5 & 6 boxsets

When I was younger, I asked my dad why The Simpsons were doing Who Shot Mr. Burns. He told me, somewhat cynically, that it's because not that many people watched Season 5. Which was kind of a crazy sentiment to me, since Homer had just gone into space and all. I don't know why I remember that exchange from back then, but that idea kinda stuck with me over the years. They couldn't top Homer going into space, spectacle wise, but Season 6 would find different ways to raise the stakes.
TheRealJims hmmm..

Also how did Mirkin get his name? Thats the name for a pubic wig for folks that shave their junk! Weird! Lol.
TheRealJims I guess your papa reasoned that explaining The Who killed JR reference would be tiresome for him. Bonus points if he speculated that the internet would make it easy for his boy to find that information for himself.
Ahh season 6, I liked this season because of Bort.
You talking to me?
@@josephoday675 no my son is also named Bort
We are out of Bort plates in the gift shop, I repeat we are out of bort
Minor Dead Bort
Bort was short for abortion.
The "Do It For Her" segment is just beautiful. Seeing the camera finally show one of the walls with pictures of Magge covering the sign.
There's a joke in the rock bottom episode where they have to run off a really fast moving list of corrections after Homer is proven innocent. if you pause it and try to read the list as its running off there's a line that says "if you're reading this, you have no life". never been so personally attacked by anything in a tv show but it was great, just shows how much humour they used to be able to cram into every episode.
"The people writing these have no life." is right after, lol.
They also say Todd is the older Flanders' sibling, so they're clearly lying. You DO have a life!
This contest is over, give season 6 the ten thousand dollars.

season 8 has a saying there :)
Simpsons Season Six: low key one of the best seasons of television ever.
Seasons 3-7 really are a goddamn treasure, but 4 and 6 are probably the standouts. No easy feat.
@@chavesa5 It really was the show at its peak.
After all, it was the debut of Benevenstanciano.
chavesa5 I would include seasons 2 and 8 as well! The golden age for sure!
THE greatest season of all time, some would argue.
Def one of the most iconic and memorable seasons of the simpsons, period. The amount of good episodes in it is no joke. Looking forward to your review of S8
Kinda goes without saying. Hes talking about mid 90s Simpsons after all. You could say that about any season from this time
Any Minor World That Breaks Apart lmao i kinda forget that post 90s simpsons even exist
planeta u forgot s7
The Creepy Cuck i didn’t haha, but I’m more excited for S8 because it’s my favorite. Season 7 is great though
planeta lol you gona have a lot of waiting to do fam 🤜💥🤛
"Gun it Flanders!"
"I can't something's draining the battery."
Homer basting a turkey in the RV's oven. "...Oh sorry."
Flanders slams on the brakes.
Homer: (muffled, in the shower) oh GREAT! Now I’m upside down! 😡
The scene with Lisa at Bleeding Gum Murphy's funeral by herself is one of the saddest moments in the entire show.
That scene used to freak me out as a kid too. I wondered to my lil kid self, “how the hell do you go through your whole life and only one person shows up at your funeral? And even the PREACHER mispronounces your name!” Simpsons always helped me think deep thoughts as a kid lol 😆
I occasionally wonder how different the series would have been had they not hit the reset button at the end of "The Springfield Connection" and let Marge remain a cop for the rest of the series.
Her singing I shot the sheriff would have been different lol
I don't think they really had anything for her to do in that role is the thing.
When things started getting stale around Season 11-12 would've been the perfect time to stop returning everything to the status quo at the end of each episode. I obviously say that in hindsight though. No matter what, the first 10 seasons will always be a legendary run of television, especially seasons 3-9.
Damn, that would’ve been cool!! But I imagine, eventually, Marge would’ve either been murdered by a crooked cop or murdered a crooked cop herself. I dunno, but that’s my estimate.
This is my favourite season in all of television. This was the peak of The Simpsons’ cleverness, producing so many jokes that we’re just expected to know, but it was also a really warm season. It wasn’t difficult to be enveloped by the characters and town of Springfield. You mentioned that a lot of characters had major spotlights this year, and I think that’s because Season 6 was the best at making Springfield feel like a planet.

While this was always a strength of the series from Season 3 (where side characters could be fully trusted to carry a plot) up to Season 10 (where nearly every episode had to focus on Captain Wacky for some reason), 6 was the tip of the bell curve in that and so many ways.

Everything that the Simpsons was known for doing was distilled into pure perfection in this season.
Really looking forward to the retrospective on season 7...and especially 8. Season 8 is a very odd beast, IMO, because it's definitely the inflection point of the show's history. While it's still clearly in the classic era of the Simpsons, many of the problems that people had about the modern era start to seep in. All of this would have been forgivable had it been the final season, or the penultimate season. Season 8 is pretty much DEFINED by the sense that the show is winding down. You don't make episodes like the Spin-Off Showcase or the Itchy, Scratchy and Poochie Show if you don't see the end in sight. And you don't make episodes like Homer's Enemy if you don't sense the show has gotten too wacky and drifted away from its original vision.
All three of those episodes are some of the best of the show. As well as many others from S8.
seasons 4-6 are all so solid ...any of them can be your favorite...
5 might be mine purely just because that was the season I had on dvd when I was like 9, it was when I latched onto the show, and it was the only set of episodes I didn’t absorb purely through osmosis or tv reruns.
season 9 I think wouldve been a great final season

Man, I hope you know how much I love and respect your channel. Consistent, quality content, thorough research and you deliver it in such a palatable way. Nice to hear a perspective from someone as fanatic as me. Keep it up, I binge the hell out of your videos 👍🏼
My personal favorite season. Seasons 4 and 7 have episodes and individual moments I enjoy more, but Season 6 is just so consistently solid across the board.

Season 6 will always be the greatest in my eyes, after all it's the only one with Benevenstanciano.
season 6 feels more tamed in comparison, season 4 was just wild and almost unfair to compare to..it legit is the best 90's t.v. show season of the decade and one of the best sitcom seasons of t.v. ever made..its the best animated sitcom season ever imo...season 6 with new staff and no drugs coming close to it is a accomplishment in itself...seriously no joke ...
It's great to see another one of these retrospectives again. You always do a great job of providing a deep analysis of what makes a season good, and you often times bring up perspectives I never would have thought of. I cannot wait to see the top 10, and the retrospective for Season 7 which is my favorite season of the series. Great job as always dude.
Season 6 has always been my favourite. It was the first one I ever bought on DVD. That plastic Homer head.
"Beware the Ides of March."
"No."
Great show, Jimbo. Keep em comin!
Love season 6 by the way. Such a memorable collection of episodes.
homer vs patty and selma and the clip show are the only meh episodes this season...the rest are fantastic...
I just wanted to tell you I love these season retrospective videos. It’s nice to see someone talk about how each season is different and how The Simpsons changed with the different showrunners. I’d love to see a video detailing each Simpsons “era” if you ever get the time for that!
I'm surprised that you can talk about this season for 20 minutes straight and not mention how many episode titles are just "character vs. something". I forgive their laziness with their titles considering how well-made the episodes themselves are.
Felix Morrissey The titles weren’t meant to be important back then, as they just aired on tv.
To be honest, I can’t remember the name of almost any episode from the shows I’ve watched in my life.
Felix Morrissey I know now a days with the guide feature on our dvrs and our lists on Disney plus now showing the episode titles prominently; but you’d have to go through great lengths to find episode titles back then as they were just listed at the end card after the credits. I don’t even think TV guide listed episode titles, just the names of shows and the times. And come on, what kid was reading that stuff?
@@projectunity5795 I had this season on DVD since I was a child. It was pretty apparent to me.
Felix Morrissey I see, but that’s a great observation I didn’t notice it.
Its going to be impossible to choose only ten from season six... goood friggen luck :/ haha.
Personally, _Bart of Darkness_ & _Lemon of Troy_ would *have* to be on my list. Those are two episodes that just completely suck me in each time & just really have some classic bits. I love how unique & funny the plots are & how well they depict each character's personalities. Also, I have a huge bias for the Lisa/Bart/children-of-Springfeild-centered episodes.
Also _Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy_ is sooooo good. Like, what a silly & unique plot 🤣.
But, as far as what others would deem "classic Simpsons episodes" and those that are meme'd and more remembered/referenced in popular culture ... my picks might not align with that? From what I've seen, the more popculture mainstays would be like, _Who Shot Mr. Burns (I),_ _Bart vs. Australia,_ & _Two Dozen and One Greyhounds._
I just looked and it's impossible for me. Top twenty if all twenty are presented in no real order due to all being great I could do but that's about it.
I wrote whole essay on a single joke from the opening episode of season 6. The show is just incredibly well written at this point.
wait really?
Which joke
Can you put it up somewhere please? I’d like to read it.
Season 6 is my favorite season for the exact reasons you mentioned. I also think its "Treehouse of Horror" is the show's best. All three segments are iconic (The Shinning, Time & Punishment, Nightmare Cafeteria).
This series of videos is one of my favorite things on UA-cam.
Season 6 might be peak Simpsons.
With season 7
This was an amazing analysis! Your transitions into each segment and the overall organization is superb. As someone who had watched Season 6 (I still remember the DVD case being shaped like Homer's head) as a kid in the early 2000's, you have pointed out so many themes I never really thought of before. Season 6 is ultimately my favorite season of the show, with 3 and 4 in a tie for a close second. I love the emotional impact of many of the episodes, the Lisa and Marge episodes this season were some of my favorites and the Treehouse of Horror was fun (my favorite right behind the Season 4 Treehouse of Horror). I do love the episodes that focus on side characters like Skinner, Apu, Krabappel, etc but the family and extended focused episodes that S6 had a lot of are my favorite. Again great job on this!
The PTA disbands would definitely be on my top 10. I love the satirical take on how school funding gets used as for political pawns and to see how Bart and Lisa both react differently to the same situation.
The whole Prepetual motion machine joke is one of my favourites in all of Simpsons history. If you let Bart run wild, be becomes some weird creep who flies kites at night, and Lisa literally breaks the laws of physics so she can be challenged.
In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!
Such a great out of left field Homer moment next to him proclaiming he's going to clown college and Bart's following remark.
I watched season 6 a while back and was quite surprised at how good the animation was... easily the strongest season in that regard.
"And Maggie Makes Three" is possibly the only time I've cried at a cartoon
I have so much love for this season. It was my first simpsons dvd set, it's the season I consistently laugh the most to, has my favorite treehouse of horror episode, and it arguably has one of the most creative 2 part episodes to every air on tv!
Thank you so much for these retrospects! I love these earlier seasons yet you point out so many things I never picked up on in terms of structure, themes and characterisation!
Favorite season with my favorite episode. "Treehouse of Horror V" is amazing!
80% of season 6 is fantastic....only 5 of the 25 episodes are not iconic and even so 3 of those 5 imo are fine aka fear of flying grampa vs sexual inadequacy and a star is burns...they aren't great episodes but their funny enough on first viewing....the clip show is...well a clip show but its ok I guess.....the only meh episode of the season is homer vs patty and selma...really didn't care for it
@@razkable Homer Vs Patty & Selma has funny parts, but the story is too generic for The Simpsons
This is honestly my favourite season of the Simpsons, it clearly fights with season 4 and 7, but achieves to have the upper hand. The Mirkin seasons to me feel like doing their own thing having their own formula why the work. I love them
That laugh after Bart dials Fred on the phone is so funny
Thanks for doing these. I genuinely enjoy your analysis.
Thank you for all these Retrospectives. With your insightful analysis of each season, you've added whole new layers of enjoyment for me. I loved these episodes before. Now I love them at an even deeper level. Viva la Simpsons! Keep going!
Another great video! I love the length, your analysis is always spot-on so it always leaves me with something to chew on, so to speak! Keep up the great work!
Watching the two parter of who shot mr burns while high is the craziest mind bending cartoon experience I've ever had and makes you believe literally any character could have done it, spectacular writing.

Perfect.
this is the season i always default to as "my favorite". i'm not sure i've ever really sat down and thought about which is my favorite, though. 6 is just kind of my "yeah season 6 was great i'll pick it" choice.
also wanna say i'm so glad this channel learnt me the phrase "screw the audience jokes". i love them so much and that's the perfect way to describe them.
Season 6 has always been my favorite. It had so many bangers. Also thank you, you were the reason why I started watching the in the first place. I don't know why, I watched all your videos without watching the show for a while, but I watched the Simpsons and now I finally understand why people love it 😊
Thanks for all of the comfy videos. Sometimes I like to fall asleep while listening into your reviews. But unlike most channels I want to rewatch them again in the morning so I actually know what you said.
Yep, RealJim's videos are definitely so comfy.
"Sugarposting is better than lemonposting."
I didn't realize how much I needed to hear you say that until you said it.
Thank you.
Thank you.
you could argue that this season starts an important character arc for Homer, in that it's the first time he ever talked about wanting to move under the sea! Earlier seasons had hinted at Homer's passion for the ocean. When he's giving Lisa advice on how to politely rebuff Ralph he suggests saying "I'm married to the sea". But this is the first time he actually indicated a desire to live there - and he eventually did, as of the episode set in the future, where he has a house underwater. I feel like if Phil Hartman had lived longer, we might have gotten an episode where Homer and Troy would have bonded over their mutual love of the sea and their, um, appetites for its creatures. (Remember, it's common knowledge that Troy McClure "sleeps with the fishes"). Maybe Homer and Troy would have teamed up with the sea captain for some kind of adventure.
LOL!!!
Season 6 is one of my favorite season of the entire series.
Ahh. Another fine Simpsons retrospective.
Seasons 5, 6 and 7 are some of the strongest seasons in television history. Great video as always.
replace 7 with 4...I think your forgetting how good season 4 is and how bad parts of season 7 can be...
Season 6 is stupendous! I love Bart’s whacky pranks and the dramatic mystery plots! Terrific review! Also love those season 6 guest stars! They are amazing. I’m a huge fan both Allison and Jessica Lovejoy! Too bad they never got sequel episodes. However yes I love hearing praise for this Season!
Season 13 has been a favorite of mine since i was a kid, It has so many good episodes and my favorite simpsons joke; when moe is like "hey they stole my bit!" and then pulls out his tin foil brain scanner and says "YEP! Word for word!". I'm excited to see how you rank them!
What an iconic season 👏
You forgot a line that define Homer Simpson forever.....
SEE YA IN HELL CANDYBOY!!!!!
*RUN IN AN EPIC DIE HARD EXPLOSION*
Season 6 is my favourite. Whatever the style, it is just the most perfect run of very funny episodes.
The balance of satire, parody, pop culture refences, observational humour , cutaway gags, excellent puns and witty word play and funny characters. It both goes very surreal in it's plots and stays very human in the character interactions. The irony is balanced with heart and it feels genuine.
Season 6 balanced out subversive humour and wonderful character or plot payoffs and everyone gets an excellent moment. And it always feels in character. It's like the perfect blend of seasons 3, 4 and 5. And I was just such high quality, sharp and clever. Everything works, it never feels forced and flows organically, all the jokes land and there is a lot of them. It's close to perfect.
The Simpsons phenomenon peaked in the spring of 1995, along with the second half of season 6 which has some of the best episodes of TV produced. Everything came together so well with this season that one could argue that this was the peak. After season 6 things felt different in a way that is hard to describe.
season 6 is when the animation became the most consistent and we got what the characters would look like in rest of the later seasons.
One of may favourite Simpsons lines of all time occurs this season, in the episode "The PTA disbands", Lisa has invented a perpetual motion machine and Homer tells her off by saying "In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics"
You know, it's odd, a lot of people will more than likely just lump anything from season 1 (or season 3) through season 9 (or whatever arbitrary cut-off point people decided The Simpsons "stopped being good") as just "the classic era" and don't bother breaking things down season by season. The way you put things in perspective, in particular describing this season, really helps put things in perspective and paints a picture of how the staff behind the show changed and evolved with each new season. Season 6 definitely feels like the season of drama, intrigue, conspiracy and mystery, which feels obvious now that I'm looking at it specifically, but I feel like most people who just look back on The Simpsons as a homogeneous "good era" will miss that.
I say this every time but I love these reviews. Popping one on while I make breakfast is a great way to start the day.
As a follower of Four Finger Discount and Rock Bottom, I love that shoutout to sugar/lemon-posting.
Saw this video go up last night and was hyped to dive right in but alas an early morning meant I had to save it as motivation to start the day. Totally worth it and can already tell it's going to be a great day.
I can’t wait to see how you analyze the more recent seasons. There is so much great stuff in the later seasons that gets put to the side because it’s become a meme to call it a bad show these days.
You're long overdue for a character history on Benevenstanciano
I'm just realising how much season 6 defined my type of humour, makes sense as I grew up with it. But I didn't think about seasons as a kid, just enjoyed what came. My fave moment (at the top of my head) is probably the lemon shaped rock.
This my favorite season as it has so many brilliant episodes that balance the great Simpsons comedy with giving it so much heart creating a stronger impact then I would have expected.
season 6 is so special I think honestly the grampa vs sexual inadequacy is the 23rd best episode this season...thats kinda nuts...
Got Season 6 as a present when I was 10. Have watched it so many times.. its really special for me
This season is definitely one of my most favorites. I mean it had many iconic jokes and moments in it. Just to name a few: " I was saying boo-urns." , " I said ha ha.", " come on bort. Are you talking to me? No. I also have a son named bort." And I also like how it's the only season that ends with the famous cliff hanger, "Who shot mr. Burns?" It's definitely a classic.
I'll have you know that Benevin Stanchiano is widely considered the Just Stamp The Ticket Man of Season 6. He's a perfectly cromulent character.
I think this is up there as my favorite season. It’s tied with season one, but they’re so different that I don’t know if there’s any comparison. I honestly just love scheming, conspiracies, neuroticism, paranoia, all that sort of stuff. I mean, they do both have good Hermann episodes, so maybe that’s a factor.
season 6 has the best treehouse of horror it has a future episode one of many a flashback keeping that tradition alive the first two simpsons travel episodes and the best 2 imo it has the first 2 parter its premiere feels like one with its tone unlike most of them it has a sideshow bob episode after we got one last season which they hadn't done up to that point starting a tradition of one every year for a while it killed of a character ….it did so much with its 25 episode pallet
Some of season 6 episodes feel like they could've come much later, others earlier. Those episodes are ageless.
Also, it was a baby ox.
I'm glad to know it's not just me. I always loved watching the Simpsons and when Christmas came around when I was in the 7th grade my mom got me Season 6 on DVD and I watched it nonstop and it's always been my personal favorite season next to 9.
Season 6 is the Diamond is Unbreakable of The Simpsons
This is too rigth and yeah I know this comment is old. It resonated. Be well.
Your editing is amazing, just wanted to say.
...So here we are at last. Season 6 of The Simpsons. *The **_Legendary_** Season 6. Of The Simpsons.*
The way I see it, there will never, _ever_ be another show like Season 6 of The Simpsons. Season 6 is life. Season 6 is love. Season 6 is pure television perfection in animated sitcom form. An undisputed masterpiece. This is _The Empire Strikes Back,_ or better yet, the _Citizen Kane_ of this already phenomenally funny, intelligent and thought-provoking series. A show that absolutely killed in the realm of 90s pop culture, still remembered and loved to this day, unlike that unfunny cartoon about the yellow family that currently airs on FOX that abuses glorified celebrity cameos and other attempts at ratings traps. But this truly is where the writers and artists alike absolutely perfected everything that made Simpsons episodes great. All of the most memorable humor, and plots alike are polished to perfection here.
Like a good comedy movie, they've achieved an almost yin-yang-like balance of comedy and earnest emotion in this season. Don't get me wrong, the Simpsons will always be a comedy show first and foremost, but this era of the show is _dark._ And in all of the best possible ways. It plays with the expectations of the audience (or screws them, you might say) and keeps everyone on board on their toes. Remember when Lisa, out of jealousy, tried to sabotage Alison's diorama? Nope, gotcha, she feels remorse and dramatically reveals the location of Alison's project, a clever homage to Edgar Allen Poe's _The Telltale Heart._ Homer wants to join the Stonecutters club but gets kicked out? GOTCHA, turns out he's got a Stonecutters birthmark on his rear end, so he can join after all. It's a rock that looks like a lemon? GOTCHA! There's a lemon behind that rock! The tree! Everyone in Springfield is a suspect for shooting Mr. Burns? GOTCHA, turns out it was the baby. Cough. Anyway the point is this is the ultimate screw the audience season, one of the rules of thumb for clever, nuanced writing, and a show with unique sensibilities that actively avoids retreading the beaten path.
As noted in this video, satire is in full force here in the middle of the Mirkin era. A good standout to me is the always-hilarious _Homer Badman,_ in which everyone in Springfield just will not let Homer live down the accidental case of sexual harassment. Great commentary on how the media can often blow things way out of proportion, a message which very much holds true today. How about when everybody starts a riot over a hockey game? The people of Australia, blinded by nationalist pride, gets deeply offended by a 10-year old boy making prank calls over the phone? Bart falling in love with a girl who turns out to be an even bigger hellion than himself, but even when she is punished in the end, he still lets her step all over him because she's cute? Yeah, okay, a modern society like our own certainly needs a show like this, now more than ever to drop some cartoon axes on our heads every once in a while. Well played, season 6. Well played indeed.
Some of the most iconic moments of the show are present here, as it turns out. Timeless memes like "Man Getting Hit by Football", "Urge to kill...RISING!", "Do it for her", and of course, the unsung pop culture staple, "I see you've played Knifey Spooney before." What a classic year in television history!
Pardon this Goliath of a comment filled with nothing but relentless gushing, but Season 6 of the Simpsons means just _that much_ to me, on a personal level. I was born in 1994, and watched the Simpsons religiously along with my parents since I was a baby. _This_ is the exact era of the Simpsons that I grew up with, and loved since the beginning, a show I've known my whole life, that continues to inspire my sense of humor, and me as a person, to this very day. It's amazing how vividly I can still subconsciously remember moments and jokes from these episodes even as far back as the dates on which they originally aired that we recorded on tape. I remember when everybody got crammed into Ned's bomb shelter. I remember when the Itchy and Scratchy Land robots started attacking. I remember Bart's epic quest to take the lemon tree back from Shelbyville with the eventual aid of his friends and family. I remember when Mr. Burns got shot, and passed out on the sundial. This season is one of my most treasured childhood memories. Looking back at how brilliant it was and still is fills me with pride. Although Season 7 is another worthy contender for best season of the show and contains many of my other all-time favorites, including my favorite episode of the whole show (22 Short Films About Springfield), Season 6 is my favorite season of The Simpsons, overall. What a legendary show!!
If you are reading this, you have no life.
I agree with every point you make season 6 is the Simpsons legacy and I will forever remember it
*applauds*
I was 13 for this season. How fortunate I was to be at that age when such a milestone show was at it's absolute peak and getting to watch it and witness it's cultural impact on a weekly basis.
season 4 and 6 are like heavyweights...I can see the argument for either as the peak but, season 7?..gtfoh....
@@razkable season 7 is fantastic
Wow, I didn't realize this season was so great, I should do a favorite episodes of it myself some day.
Just found your channel and binged everything. Love your stuff man.
“Law & Order: Special Simpsons Unit.”
Shut up and take my like!
That homer freeze face is just the funniest thing any human has ever created
I remember not liking a lot of Season Six episodes as a kid, they seemed to have a meaner edge to them than the other classic seasons (especially Bart who seems to keep getting screwed over). Basically Season Five without a lot of the laxness or stupid poetic justice to balance it out. I also think some of the meta stuff was getting a bit forced and cheesy by this point, not NEARLY as bad as post-classic era but it was the beginning of the end for earnest in-universe characterisation in the show.
Looking back, I think this still stands a little, though I think when a good joke is there, it hits really well. Homer Badman torments Homer relentlessly for example but it works because the satire and melodrama is hilarious. The Halloween special is also one of the most brutal, but perfect in how ridiculously handled it all is.
Seasons 4, 5, and 6 are my top favorite seasons of all time. :)
I think I was the first like 😮 lol. Anyways great video, I always love these season reviews and analysis. Especially as this is one of my favorite seasons.
This is the best season and best DVD box
Seasons 2-7 of the Simpsons are probably the greatest 6 seasons in a TV series EVER
Lou: Found it chief.
Ned: AGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh
I couldn’t have thought of a more perfect thumbnail
My second favorite season of the series!
Homer Badman is an episode so far ahead of its time not just the general topic but also the comments on the importance of context in discussion, and how media fails to represent it.
I love how Waldo is in the bunker in "Bart's comet"
the guy incognito bit is just perfect. i think about it on a daily basis.
Season 6 is my favorite season. Lemon of Troy and Bart's Comet are two of my all-time favorite episodes. Homer the Great, Sideshow Bob Roberts, and Itchy & Scratchy Land are classics. Marge looks more attractive in her police uniform. The only real stain is a clip show.
I love the analysis of this. good job my guy.
David Mirkin was an amazing executive producer he n his team of writers wrote two solid seasons n I love his commentaries on the Simpsons seasons 5 & 6 boxsets
