Best Simpson's Moment Ever
I believe there are a few Simpson's fans down here in the Cellar--does anyone have an absolute Best Moment Ever? I think it's near impossible to pick one! Any nominees?
|
Homer living with the two gay guys definitely ranks up there ...
My favorite, by far, is when Homer falls in the hole in front of the church and sues them for $1 million. I was astonished, but then laughing hysterically, when Rev. Lovejoy says, "One million dollars? This is a church, not a synagogue." It was one of those times when I felt the Simpsons was just absolutely pushing the boundaries of whatever sort of political correctness reigns over cartoons. And I really really really liked it. And then there's this fabulous exchange from the Homer turns vegetarian episode: Homer Simpson: Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon? Lisa: No. Homer Simpson: Ham? Lisa: No! Homer Simpson: Pork chops? Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal! Homer Simpson: Heh heh heh ... ooh ... yeah ... right, Lisa. A wonderful ... magical animal. |
Wait 'til I have the cash to burn on the Simpson Collection DVDs, then I'll get back to you. :yelgreedy

I have to say I liked the "floor pie" bit. Bart was egging Homer on for his own school-project purpose (think: rat in a maze) when he rigged up a pie under a hole. Homer came upon it, was ecstatic, and managed, "MMM! Floor Pie!" before falling to his doom.
|
"mmmmMMMMMMMMMMMMMMTomacco! Gimme! Gimme!"
|
I was going to go with "Floor Pie" or "Sneeds" even before I read the other posts... Though I think in "Floor Pie" it was a rope that pulled Homer to the ceiling, not a hole. Homer, swinging from the ceiling, kept grabbing for the pie whenever he swung close to it.
With those already out there, I think I'll add Sideshow Bob stepping on rakes. |
there are so many simpson's moments that have left me with tears of laughter i can't pick one, but here are a few of my favorite quotes.
Mr. Burns: This anonymous clan of slack-jawed troglodytes has cost me the election, and yet if I were to have them killed, I would be the one to go to jail. That's democracy for you. Mr. Burns: Nonsense! Dogs are idiots! Think about it, Smithers. If I came into your house and started sniffing at your crotch and slobbering all over you, what would you say? Smithers: If you did it, sir? Homer: Old people don't need companionship. They need to be isolated and studied so it can be determined what nutrients they have that might be extracted for our personal use. Oh no! What have I done? I smashed open my little boy's piggy bank, and for what? A few measly cents, not even enough to buy one beer. Wait a minute, lemme count and make sure... not even close. Bart: What's Santa's Little Helper doing to that dog? Looks like he's trying to jump over, but he can't quite make it. Lisa: Relax? I can't relax! Nor can I yield, relent, or... Only two synonyms? Oh my God, I'm losing my perspicacity! Aaaaa! Principal Skinner: Order, order. Do you kids wanna be like the real UN or do you just wanna squabble and waste time? Apu: Yes! I am a citizen! Now which way to the welfare office? I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I work, I work. I have been shot eight times this year, and as a result, I almost missed work. Nelson: Lisa: [reading] "Nuke the whales?" You don't really believe that, do you? Nelson: I dunno. Gotta nuke something. Ralph: I bent my wookie. That's where I saw the Leprchaun. He tells me to burn things! and to close out - Nelson's old stand by. AH-HA the fact that i have these quotes readily available should not be viewed as any indication that i am a simpson's obsessed loser. if you agree with that statement, would you talk to my wife? |

ROFLMAO - i love that. that is the best acting kelsey grammar ever did, er something. |
The best Kelsey Grammar ever did was singing the score to the HMR PINAFORE. 'Twas lovely!
You're right--Homer WAS suspended and grabbing for the pie each time he swung near--my embarrassing mistake! And I call myself a SimpsonHead :blush: |
|
Anything with Lionel Hutz.
Judge: Mr. Hutz, are you aware you're not wearing any pants? Lionel Hutz: Uh, your Honor, can I call for one of those bad trial thingys? Judge: You mean a mistrial? Lionel Hutz: Yeah ... that's why you're the judge, and I am the law ... talkin' ... guy. |
Stonecutters. 2 of them are running for President right now. ;)
|
When Marge co-stars in the Broadway-esque musical "Streetcar!" based on Streetcar Named Desire. And when she says "I have always depended on the kindness of the strangers," the cast breaks out into an upbeat musical number "You Can Always Depend on the Kindness of Strangers".
|
the end of the episode where bleeding gums murphy kicks the bucket and all the heads form in the clouds (james earl jones voices) and even darth vader shows up... yeah that made me laugh.
that and pretty much every halloween episode |
I can't believe you guys, of all people, haven't mentioned the waffle bart stuck to the ceiling that Homer thought was god...
Marge: "Homer, that's not God, it's just a waffle stuck to the ceiling" <knocks it down with a broomstick> <Homer picks it up> Homer: " I know I should not eat thee..." <eats it anyway> "Mmmm....sacrelicious" Or, for that matter, "Mmmmmm....forbidden donut..." |
My favorite Homer moment is when Homer goes to Hell, and Satan has him hooked up to a donut force-feeding machine that stuffs about a dozen into his face at a time, and each time, Homer makes yummy noises, opens his mouth and says "more...mmmpfff...more...mmmpfff...more".
Mr. Burns doing the take-off of "Be Our Guest" from "Beauty and the Beast" wherein he musically lauds his animal-skin wardrobe is also quite fine. |
I remember now, the very best is when Homer eats the insanity peppers and goes on an insanity pepper trip, off into the desert where he gets help from Johnny Cash.
I agree w/spode... "See My Vest" is brilliant. |
Tubthumping (Homer's version)
I get knocked down I get knocked down again You're never gonna knock me down. [...] I take a whisky drink, I take a chocolate drink, And when I have to pee, I use the kitchen sink. I sing the song that reminds me I'm a urinating guy. |
ralphie definitely gets the best one-liners
re: tommaco, "This tastes like grandma" |
crowd booing mr burns: "BOOOO, BOOOOO, BOOOO"
mr burns: "Smithers, are these people booing me?!" Smithers: " Uh, No, sir, I believe they are saying BOO-urns" Mr Burns to crowd: " Are you people saying 'Boo, or BOo-urns?'" Crowd: "BOOOOO!" Moleman: " I was saying 'Boo-urns'" the simpsons ROCK. |
64 slices of american cheese...64...63......2.......wannnnn.
The entire Bobo episode is really good. Wow, there are so many hilarious moments running through my head right now from other episodes, it's impossible to name them all. I'll say it again, "mmm, floor pie" |
we could have a thread of just the *funny things that follow MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm........
that right there is a testament to how much impact the show has had. The mmmm thing has become a recognized verbal device in everyday conversation. *all time best would have to be "pointy" |
Homer: "why, oh why, did i squish that fish?"
time traveling toaster episode. |
The episode where Lisa gets braces, and Homer is elected presidet of the union, is the best Simpsons episode ever: "Last Exit To Springfield"

I need to start watching the Simpsons again... My anti-TV habits have resulted in not seeing an episode in months. |
Quote:
Mmmmmm. Invisible Cola... And anything from "Simpsons Hit & Run" -- Smashy, smashy! - Pie |
"oh that? that's german, for Die, Bart, Die."
"well, no one who speaks german could be evil." |
How about ... the episode where Homer tries to win back Lisa by buying her a pony. This moment always makes me laugh so hard for no apparent reason.
[7:59 am: Homer walks into bedroom after working the graveyard shift at the Quik-E Mart] Homer: Must ... sleeep ... Marge: *grumbles* [8 am: Alarm sounds] Homer: Time to go to werrk ... And then he falls asleep in the car, and hits the steering wheel to deploy the airbag and uses it as a pillow. FUCKING HILARIOUS. |
Oh, there are so many ...
From the "April Fool's" Episode: In the flashback, where the origin of April Fool's is discussed, and the early Christian Flanders come to visit the late Pagan Simpsons ... "Heidiliho Pagans! We've come to bring you some ram's blood for your godless ceremonies." Then, of course, there is the moment of insight in "Homer Gets Fat" where Homer and Bart go to visit Dr Nick (who, incidentally, sounds exactly like an Emergency Room Physician I deal with) and he's explaining to Homer the rationale behind choosing foods that will help him meet his goal of going on disability for being fat ... "And remember, if you're not sure about something, rub it against a piece of paper. If the paper turns clear, it's your window to weight gain" |
The time travelling toaster episode is my fave too.
Fave homer quote: "Shut up brain, or i'll stab you with a Q-tip". |
It's gotta be, "Wow Dad, you took a baptism for me!"
|
It's an odd one I know, but my favorite line ever is:
Homer: Linguo--DEAD?!! Linguo: Linguo... IS... dead. |
"We're sorry... Your finger is too fat to dial the telephone. To order a special dialing wand, mash the keypad now."
|
"You'll have to speak up, i'm wearing a towel".
|
Best Ralphie Quotes:
"The doctor says I wouldn't get so many nosebleeds if I just kept my finger out of there." (on the 'Lord of the Flies' episode) Ralph: "I ated the purple berries." Bart: "How do they taste, Ralph?" Ralph: "They taste like burning..." "That's where I saw the leprechaun. He tells me to burn things." When the superintendent is touring the school "Hi, Supernintendo Chalmers. I'm learnding!" "Mrs. Krabappel and Principal Skinner were in the closet making babies and I saw one of the babies and then the baby looked at me." Chief Wiggum is buying all of the newspapers at the Quik-E-Mart Chief: "I'm training a new puppy at home, and Ralphy here could use some touching up himself." Ralph: "Dad says I'm this close to living in the yard." and, of course, the quintissential Ralphy: "I'm special!" And Homer Quotes, just for the fuck of it: "Mmmm....64 slices of American cheese. 63....62..." (next morning) "Ugh....2.....uh......1" Marge: "Homer, did you stay up all night eating cheese?" Homer: "I think I'm blind!" "Alright, brain. I don't like you, and you don't like me, so let's just get through this, and I can get back to killing you with beer." "Lisa, just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand." "Vampires are make-believe, like elves, gremlins and eskimos." (to the flinstones theme, while driving): "Simpson, Homer Simpson. He's the greatest guy in history. From the town of Springfield, he's about to hit a chestnut tree. Aaah!" "Marge, you being a cop makes you the man! Which makes me the woman - and I have no interest in that, besides occasionally wearing the underwear, which as we discussed, is strictly a comfort thing." (when Bart was hanging out with the gay guy who ran the antiques/campy shop in the mall) "He didn't give you the gay, did he? Did he?!?" "God bless those pagans." and, since I must sum up each character I mention with one quote: "Beer, now there's a temporary solution." Sidenote: I just saw the Sherry Bobbins episode, and the part where she floats off on her umbrella only to be sucked into a jet engine has to be the funniest damned thing I've ever seen. |
Homer to Mr. Burns: "Oh, I suppose you're going to set the dogs on me. Or the bees. Or the dogs with bees in their mouths so when they bark, they shoot bees at you".
|
Ralph in front of the school after being told he failed a subject:
"Me fail English? That's unpossible!" |
Ralph tarring the roof of 742 Evergreen:
Ralph: "Mr. Simpson? The tar fumes are making me dizzy." Homer: [in hammock, drinking a Duff] "Aahhh..yeah, they'll do that." Marge worried about Bart in the treehouse: Marge: "What do you think he's doing up there?" Homer: "Drug lab." Marge: "Drug lab?!" Homer: "Or reading comic books, what am I, Kreskin?" And there was an episode recently, "Bart-Mangled Banner", where the family got Gitmo'd. You could quote the entire script if you wanted to...so funny. |
Flanders: Feels like I'm wearing nothing at all. Nothing at all. Nothing at all!!
Homer: Stupid sexy Flanders! |
