It never occurred to me before now, but while nearly everyone in Springfield has a beef with Mr. Burns, Abe is the only one that can truly be considered Burns' archnemesis.
Am I the only one who expected this video to be longer than 26 minutes for that reason? I can't wait/hope you do a timeline video for Burnsie. He was apparently born in 1886, so that man's seen and done enough to fill a tome.
HellFish is my favourite episode of all time. Actually shows Abe in a competent light and I love the relationship between him and Bart, where Bart gets on with him better than homer. I know the full episode title but I’m not typing all of that 😂
While Grampa does get a love its a real shame people don't often talk about his past and relationships. I'm glad you covered it here and did an amazing job in the process
@@TheSimpsonsTheory no problem. Yeah I can imagine timelines seem hard enough already but then add in Grandpas gibberish 😬 i truly am grateful for all you do
"Outta my way, I got a date with an angel! - You dont know how right you are Abe" cracks me up everytime. Abe's relationships may end badly but we get comedy gold from all of them. Thank you for another fantastic video!!!
One of my favorite timelines so far. I always thought many of Apes stories were far out/too good to be true, but that it was just do to him being senile or trying to sound more exciting.
Considering how nice Abe has been to homer at times it does make homer seem quite mean to him at times, as this person got you a house gave you all his Money and many other things and you constantly ignore him and won’t let him get a kidney from you in his time of need it makes me feel a lot worse for Abe
Well considering that Abe Completely destroyed all sense of relationship that homer had with his mom, and then bassically abused him for homers entire childhood, constantly telling him he was never gonna be anything special and shouldnt even try
In the earlier seasons he was quite mean to him as a child and in the later seasons they started showing him as a caring who loved his son but didn't show it.
@@warmice4136 abe didnt destroy it, he rather protected it actually like if he told homer that mona abandoned them then i think homer would hate mona so telling him she was dead rather saved their relationship and as for the other things.. yeah, i agree tbh, abe did ruin a lot of things but some of them were to protect homer homer was a gymnastic and abe ruined that and so that sucked but the one with selling homers dog (not santas little helper; the one homer had in his childhood if you remember) was saving homer since mr. burns hated that dog for biting him and i think selling that dog was what ruined homer and abes relationship but if only homer knew it was just to protect him (T___T)
last weeks episode seemed to be a missed opportunity to see how Homer's relationship was with his maternal family the Olsons as well as how Abe was with his in-laws
I’ve noticed the Simpson men have been very good drivers at young ages an example of this is when abe dangles keys in front of homer and then he takes the keys and drives off with ease a similar thing occurred with Bart with his skill not popping out until later yet he still showed some favor to cars with his collection
I like Grandpa Abraham Simpson. He's been established as an army veteran and I love that about him! But I absolutely hate how horribly he has always been treated! My own grandfather is an army veteran and I'd never dream of disrespecting him that way... Sorry, I know he's a cartoon character but even the idea of someone treating their father so poorly is distasteful to me and all I want to do is express my thanks for their service and sacrifice. To those who are curious I'm from the UK
I think this is the best time-line u've done so far and that's amazing considering all that u do are top notch but I think what makes this one a little better is u were able to make sense of grandpa's life and I was blown away by the awesome work u did. Please keep up the amazing work on here and ur other channel thank u for all ur hard work
Outstanding job as always Lydia and once again I jumped here from the Stan Smith video on your other channel. You rock girl and always keep'em coming. Thank you.❤❤❤
Grandpa Simpson is still a Badass Flying Hellfish and a cool old man! Sure he raised Homer kinda Tough, but it was with love because his wife was on the run. Come to think of it, with the amount of stuff he's done sometimes it makes me wonder if he's Older than Mr. Burns!!!!
As shown with the Van Houten’s and the Nahasapeemapetilon’s heck even the Simpson’s themselves a lot of the time the writes take a very black and white view to conflict. The problem is that either because the way it is initially written or because of stuff added later these conflicts are complicated. The irony being that if the writers just admitted that there is no conflict/both parties are equally in the wrong they would regain that simplicity they want. Something they refuse to do. So retconing things in order to ignore everything after Mother Simpson is the only option they’ve given for themselves. But while this doesn’t necessarily add anymore the problem, it doesn’t actually solve it.
Grampa talks to Lisa about death: Grampa: Death stalks you round every corner (points at Maggie and dramatically exclaims): Ahhh! Death!!! Lisa (sarcastically, not quite sure if there was an eye roll partnering it or not): That’s Maggie, Grampa. Grampa (chuckles in embarrassment) Oh, right… (a handful of seconds later, this time pointing at Snowball II) Ahh!! Death! Lisa: Grampa, that’s just the cat. [camera pans once more to Maggie] Grampa: Ahhh!!! Death! Lisa: That was Maggie again, Grampa!
Make a "Strangling" timeline ? Homer's grand-grand-grand parrents are shown to to strangle their kids, while it's shown Homer strangling Abe, his own father
13:13 Wait a second, I now realized that Ape has 3 kids: Herb, Homer Abby and Homer has 3 kids too: Bart, Lisa and Maggie (I don't think Hugo counts, because he is not Cannon, but It would be fun If he was cannon 😔), Even Bart kids + Lisa's kids =3. It some sort of a pattern of 3 kids.
Very good video, grandpa is my favourite, not sure if your aware tho abe has brothers Tyrone, Chet, bill and fester aswell as Cyrus who you mentioned think he has a sister called hortense. Thank you for the video looking forward to seeing more
I love that music is a generational thing with the simpsons. Abe, with his whistiling, and his song writing/piano playing with Rita. Homer, with him being in church choir, a grunge band, and the barbershop quartet. And then Lisa with her love of jazz, and her saxophone.
My personal favourite grandpa episode, though technically a Bart episode, would be barthood. Just seeing the bond between grandpa and bart put a smile on my face
@@TheSimpsonsTheory you look at all the episodes set in the future it's not homer Bart goes running to when he needs a pep talk, it's Abe, yes grandpa Simpson may not make a lick of sense sometimes but he can snap out of it as soon as Bart needs him! Look who helped Bart raise the resistance against Nelson way back when.
11:59,14:49,15:18,15:57-16:49 (I need to show my dad that episode) close to a mona life time 12:18 close to hurb life line 18:20 Bongo was a brave canine 19:16 I never asked for advice for dating i been long dating the same woman for 5 years happy and glad In my hiatus grandpa simpson would have been happy with Jacqueline but they're in laws!
I can listen to Abe's stories it sounds fascinating and everything like I will listen to my grandpa and my grandmother's stories when they were younger
This day couldn't get better and better for me if I had a piece of cake every time a video catches my watch I'll be big enough as comic book guy. So far Best Day Ever.
Do The Timeline or Mona Simpsons next. Especially with last week new episode which kinda mess-up/boycott everything about her past. If Homer knew that his mom was still alive why didn't he try looking for her again? And it's not like Abe lie to him again and say she was dead again, or maybe he did since in Mother Simpson, Homer said that his dad always pointed out the grave she was supposedly bury at. So did Abe lie to him again when got older? Or did Homer just give up and maybe except that his mom was dead for real?
I truly feel bad for Abe since he gave everything for Homer yet got nothing back. But I feel Bart is the only who truly cares for Abe which is sad but true.
I know a bloke just like Abe, his name's Martin and he was a Police Officer of thirty years service. Some of his stories are so crazy, there's no way they can be false.
Damn Abe Simpson deserves better, he did everything for his son, and Homer just treat him like garbage and teach his kids to do the same, and just for the fun of it

Question, STFU?

what about maggie?
Grandpa Homer father 👨
Maggie was taking care of business.
@@dustyrose192 maggie did shot Burns but all he was doing was stealing candy, compared to Abe, that is nothing
@@lynns_candle What do you expect? He brought a gun to a gun stealing fight...
The fact you can actually make sense of his life with all the nonsense he spouts is very impressive. Must have taken a bit of time to figure it out
Yes this was a really tough script to write! Took around 2 weeks or so 😭
So glad it's finally out 😁
@@TheSimpsonsTheory XD the love for creating can really bit us all in the ass. I feel bad for you.

Granpas done a lot of weird stuff in his life. Im sure saving Santa was just another Tuesday for Abe.

As stated he did give homer a hard time so its not all that unreasonable despite some good moments and sacrifices he's done for him
@@Wolfstarzan Yeah but at the same time he was also there for him especially after Mona left.
You are one of the most fluent and coherent person I’ve ever seen; on the internet.

The real joke behind “As straight as Gomer Pyle” is because the actor for Gomer, Jim Nabors, was a gay man. I just think that’s a clever joke
Haha I never knew that. Really gives me a better understanding of the joke now 😉
I was about to point that one out. There are few who know Gomer Pyle is.

Homer would have stayed on the dairy farm if he didn't scare the cows constantly.
@@mrillis9259 yep. Homer sure spooked them good...

Wow, what a segue in the ad read. Like a pro 👌🏻 Great video, as always! Couldn't miss this one; Grampa Abe is definitely one of my faves ❤️

I must say, I like Abe. He's hilarious! He also has a heart, underneath all the griping!
Abe has some classic lines haha
Sometimes Abe stays at the Simpsons home and sometimes at the retirement castle
I’ve been waiting for this one. Grandpa has such a complicated timeline it’s very hard to keep track of 😂
Keep up the great work. Never thought I would find a channel like this!
Thanks so much for watching 💛📺
Some one should’ve beat you with a tricycle years ago is one of my favorite Abe Simpson quotes

Make a "Strangling" timeline ? Homer's grand-grand-grand parrents are shown to to strangle their kids, while it's shown Homer strangling Abe, his own father
Seeing a retcon so much in such, especially a long-running show like this, how about a top 10 best or worst retcons in the Simpsons?

This Video Was Great❤
You’ve been up for hours! I think it’s time you had a nap?

Aw awesome thank you 😊
@@TheSimpsonsTheory :)
This channel is an hidden Gem
I always liked when young Jasper would show up in Grandpa’s flashbacks
Finally! This is what I wanted for ages
Abe is such a good guy. His wife may have left him but he tried to raise Homer as a single father as hard as he can.

Glad you enjoyed it
Interesting video as always!
Thanks a lot for watching 💛
My head canon on the new Mona retcon episode is the memory is suppressed again due to trauma (choking) or just more verbal abuse from Abe to Homer.
I never knew that I wanted this video so much until I watched it :)
