The use of Darth Vader's theme as a signifier of evilness when he's introduced in one or two episodes will never not be amazing.

Read the thread, the creator of the dud smile just found out it has become a meme.

A fun meme where the creator of the original content isn't just playing along or mildly embarrassed, will wonders ever cease?

It's this scene where Apu calls one of those "adults only" party rooms and it's just a bunch of other sad single men on the line. Except now it's these guys from the talk show about people that look like things.

So in one of the newerish (last 18 years) episodes has a scene where someone, I think Bart, is watching clips of the simpsons on Hulu and its a really short clip of bart skateboarding through a town square, when mr burns shoots him with a rocket launcher and he explodes shouting "ay carumba"

its loving hilarious and i can't find it anywhere. i think it was from s18e21 "24 minutes" but I'm not sure

hello it is from episode 8 of season 23, 'The Ten-Per-Cent Solution', at about 2:45. it is not mr burns who shoots him with the rocket launcher it is in fact vladimir putin, president of russia, who shoots him

In several eastern bloc countries there was (is?) the zero budget approach to dubbing where a single actor would read out a translation for each of the lines present. Absolutely no acting involved and the track is played on top of the original track so the result is a terrible, unlistenable mess!

I’ve stumbled upon my fair share of pirated Simpsons episodes streamed from Russian sites and they always have just some guy over the intro where the words “The Simpsons” float through the clouds he just says “SIMPSONI.” and then when bart is writing on the wall he just says something like “DA BLASTOYA CHONYA KREMSTO IRYA OLA” which I guess is the translation for whatever that episode’s blackboard gag is. Then when the show starts, yeah, it’s just that same guy talking over everyone in a flat monotone voice whether they’re kids or adults, Barney or Marge. It’s weird and I don’t understand how it doesn’t have any acting or anything at all, let alone how Russian people could ever enjoy having one man do every voice.

Mel Blanc that guy ain’t.

Can confirm they still do it. I assume it's to save money so just one dude reads what's said, but you still hear the original track and sort of get an idea for how what is said.

I've been watching early episodes and it's pretty jarring how different the style is versus the new ones. It really does feel like a parody of 80s sitcom and the tone is so different from the later barrage of celebrity-centric episodes and outlandish situations.

There were a shitload of celebrity guests as early as season 4. Though the difference is they were usually taking the piss out of themselves and/or up to something really weird in the early seasons, it's the later ones that got terrible about it.

the good early celebrity cameos weren't even playing themselves half the time or were used in service of a larger plot that didn't necessarily revolve around them.

I do remember as a kid noticing that the writers would frequently have a character go "Hey look its <insert celebrity name here>" and thinking how god drat lazy that was.

Johnny Cash is one of the best celebrity guests to appear in that series and he voiced a talking dog.

It's like with Star Trek, the best celebrity guests are the ones in the weirdest roles. Like Iggy Pop the Vorta.

the lady gaga episode fills me with feelings of dread and revulsion, and somehow the elon musk episode is actually worse. the one where the central premise is musk is a slightly overbearing best friend to homer and homer wants them to stop being friends or something, and musk plies him with genius gifts and quirky things for half an episode.

Weren't the Gaga and Musk episodes the same season as Moe's Rag? I mean the show's been a challenge to watch for a while, but there was a stretch where it was an act of violence.
