Here There Be Simpsons!

Anyone who knows me knows that The Simpsons is one of my favorite shows. It is also one of the best television shows of all time. That's not my opinion. It's just a fact. Sorry.

I just wanted to hear some of your favorite Simpson quotes or moments. (Or if you don't watch the show, explain to me why the hell you don't.)

Some of my favorite moments:

1. In "Bart the Daredevil": Homer attempts to jump the gorge on Bart's skateboard, only to fall to the bottom... twice.

--This is just classic television and one of the moments that defined the series early on. What makes the gag is when Homer is loaded into the ambulance, it immediately crashes, and Homer slips out the back on a stretcher and falls into the gorge again.

2. In "Treehouse of Horror X" during the segment "I Know What You Diddily-Iddly-Did": The Simpsons are riding in their car down a foggy road. Lisa says that she can't believe that they escaped from those horrible vampires, and Homer replies that it was worth it to get back their Sugar Crisp Cereal. Then he sings the Sugar Crisp jingle: "Can't get enough of that Sugar Crisp!"

--The Halloween episodes are some of my all-time favorites. I don't know exactly why this moment stands out for me. It just tickles my fancy. Yes, I said tickles my fancy.

3. In "Eight Misbehavin'": Homer and Apu break into the zoo to rescue Apu's octuplets. As they take the babies from the zoo, a mother gorilla appears at the front gates and holds her baby up for Homer to take with him, to which Homer replies, "Okay, this is getting weird."

--This moment perfectly aligns with my sense of humor. One of my friends once told me that Homer's reply in this moment sounds exactly like something I would say (although I can't imagine myself being in this situation, being offered a gorilla baby while helping a friend rescue his octuplets from the zoo).

Okay, now let's hear your favorite moments (or excuses for not watching)...
