Favourite Simpsons' Lines

[JungleCat03]

Whenever I feel like I'm about to go into a bigoted rant about americans being crass or ignorant, I always remind myself that any country that came up with something as brilliant and witty as The Simpsons has got to have some endearing qualities.

You are generally about to rant about southern republicans.
The states across the US are like the countries across europe, I found new yorkers very similar to us.
Apparantly Seattle is very leftie for eg (pretty sure Mitch said it was Seattle).

Yes, you are so right. Ameicans, who don't "do" humour, come up with THE greatest fictional TV Prog ever.

To be fair, it was AN American that came up with The Simpsons. There are always exceptions to the norm

I think you're right there...

Visual comedy, cutting sarcasm, subtle cultural and political commentary, base humour, some very clever spoofs, one liners.....it's even got time for some genuinely touching moments.  The simpsons really has it all!

Bart writing on blackboard at the start

My suspension was not "mutual"

Homer: I think Smithers picked me because of my motivational skills. Everyone says they have to work a lot harder when I'm around.

[TightPaulFolds]

Marge : There's a man here who says he can help you.
Homer : Is it Batman?
Marge : He's a scientist.
Homer : Batman's a scientist.
Marge : It's not Batman!

"'Bonjourrrrr, you cheese-eatin' surrender monkeys!"  Groundsman Willie

Homer:

Marge, I'm going to miss you so much. And it's not just the sex! It's also the food preparation.

You couldn't fool your mother on the foolingest day of your life if you had an electrified fooling machine.

I saw this movie about a bus that had to SPEED around a city, keeping its SPEED over fifty, and if its SPEED dropped, it would explode! I think it was called "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down."

I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me, Superman!

Apu (after being shot): Ah! the searing kiss of hot lead, how I missed you! I mean, I think I'm dying!

Comic Book Guy: Human contact, the final frontier

Lionel Hutz: Well, he's kind of had it in for me ever since I accidentally ran over his dog. Actually, replace "accidentally" with "repeatedly," and replace "dog" with "son."

Started on the Tracey Ulman show though, she's English isn't she?

The voice actors do a tremendous job too, their comic timing has mucho to do with the shows success.

I like Milhouse's confession to Lisa that the report he did from Baghdad was all made up, it was actually from Basra.

Homer: When I first heard that Marge was joining the police academy, I thought it would be fun and zany, like that movie Spaceballs. But instead it was dark and disturbing. Like that movie -- Police Academy.

[Tragic]

Homer: If he's so smart, how come he's dead?

Homer: Driving over these wooden bridges is like driving through peoples houses.
Dude: That was my house you idiot!
Homer: (in a loud whisper) Oh i'm sorry, let's exchange insurance information, I have none.

In the Marijuana episode, homer rings the door bell:

Marge: Homer where have you been??
Homer: Woah, Marge, one question at a time!
*Runs inside*
Homer: WE HAVE A KITCHEN???!!

I used to love the Simpsons, thought it was the funniest cartoon in the world but since discovering this new one i could never ever go back to laughing at the simpsons like i did.

FAMILY GUY IS THE FUNNIEST PROGRAMME EVER MADE. ABOUT 1000X BETTER THAN THE SIMPSON
(with American Dad) close behind. Seth MacFarlane is a genius!
the trouble with the simpsons is that in the end it is still meant for children- family guy is only shown after 9m! Adults only!

[Royal Flush]

Captain Lance Murdoch: It's always nice to see young people taking an interest in danger. Now, son, a lot of people are going to be telling you you're crazy, and maybe they're right. But I want to tell you three things. Bones heal. Chicks dig scars. And the United States of America has the best doctor to daredevil ratio in the world.

Have to agree, since being introduced to Family guy and American Dad it's taken the shine off the Simpsons, if you haven't tried it yet....what are you waiting for?!
