I'm a absolutely huge fan of the Simpsons and have seen every episode at least once... some I've seen literally dozens of times! It's made such a big impact on my life since I first saw it over ten years ago that I sometimes find myself quoting various Simpsons lines subconsciously.
Any more fans here? Here's a quick Simpsons Q & A; What/who is your... Favourite Simpson? Favourite Non-Simpson? Favourite Episode? Favourite Line? Favourite Song From A Show?
|

I'm a big fan, I just can't answer all the questions right now! I remember when my son started watching them and I realized this really was for adults. I love Homer! I have a t-shirt that says "American Idle" and there's a picture of Homer on the couch in his undies drinking a beer. |

Oh God, the Simpsons. Repeated viewings of all the DVDs - and when I say "repeated viewings" I mean to the point where I can recite most of the first seven seasons verbatim, and the commentaries to the first seven seasons as well! - and watching it every night on Fox have ingrained this iridescent gem of a show so deeply into my cerebral folds that it would require heavy neurosurgery, reprogramming, and probably detox as well to rid me of my fixation with this show.
What/who is your... Favourite Simpson? Homer is the funniest Simpson, but I love Lisa. Favourite Non-Simpson? Robert Terwilliger (aka Sideshow Bob), voiced by the one and only Kelsey Grammar, of whom I am also a tremendous fan. Favourite Episode? Right now? "Brother from Another Series". Ask me again in an hour, it'll be something different. Favourite Line? Homer: "I can't live the button-down life like you. I want it all! The terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles! Sure, I might offend a few of the blue-noses with my cocky stride and musky odors -- oh, I'll never be the darling of the so-called "City Fathers" who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about, "What's to be done with this Homer Simpson?!" Favourite Song From A Show? "Oh! Streetcar!"

I have Andy to thank for getting into this show. I dismissed it before as high school South Park crap (no offense, South Park fans) but now I appreciate it for all it's clever subtleties. I think it's brilliant and very enjoyable. Yay! What/who is your... Favourite Simpson? Lisa rules! Favourite Non-Simpson? Ralph Wiggum (sometimes) Favourite Episode? Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala-D'oh-cious Favourite Line? Saleswoman: This is our little hooker line. All the girls your age are wearing it, except the freakishly unpopular. Lisa: But I'm 8 years old! Saleswoman: So is your look. Favourite Song From A Show? Power Plant Blues ![]() Anyone hear about the movie due in 2007? I wonder what that will be like.

Me and my boyfriend love this show. Favourite Simpson? Tie between Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. Grandpa is alright too. Favourite Non-Simpson? Ned or Apu Favourite Episode? One of them is the one where Bart and Milhouse go to Ned's house and break into his "God's Room" only to find nothing but Beatles memorabilia and Beatles coke which gets them really high. I also love the one with John Waters where Homer is determined to make Bart non-gay. Favourite Line? cgi'd Monty Burns when turning on Waylon Smithers computer "Hello Smithers, you're quite good at turning me on." Smithers "um probably should ignore that." Favourite Song From A Show? The Steelmill song Who needs the Kwik-e-mart Maison Derriere |

Heres the trailer for the movie. Not too sure what it's going to be like. I'm always a bit worried about movie from cartoon shows. Sure, the show is great, but can it last for 90 mins? I'm just hoping it's not going to turn out like Beavis and Butthead Do America. |

Old West Barman: "We only sell Sasparilla... no alcohol." Homer: "Aw." Marge: "You can get drunk when we get home!" Homer: "Well, duh."

Interesting reading, thanks Jayne! Some of those are a little tenuous, but I recognised most.

I love the Simpsons it totally rocks. My favourite episode has to be the barbershop quartet.I loved it even before I loved the Beatles although its a lot better when you understand more of the references. I also have the poster of them replicating Pepper.I dont know if I got it because of the Beatles connection or just because the Simpsons,prob a bit of both :lol: Although I am one of the people who does actually think Futurama is better |

I'm a BIGGER Beatles fan than you and I'm an even BIGGER Wings fan than that... 'You're a Paul McCartney fan? No you're a Wings fan'. 'Thankyou Scotland' Ho Hey Ho... ![]() I am the buttplug goo goo goo joob | |

I'm sorry, but your link isn't working, Fry...but knowing that Futurama will be coming back is VERY good news, I loved that show! Will they use the same cast? I hope so, each one is perfect! Merry

I really did like that show but, sorry, the Simpsons is still my favorite. Glad to hear it coming back but I don't really watch much on Comedy Central as most of the stuff they have is pure shlock. I hope that Arrested Development finds its' way back to tv with new episodes and not just the old ones coming back on. That show was hysterical. And Merry the link worked for me. |

The link didn't work for me, either, just so Merry doesn't think it's only her computer. Futurama is pretty good but The Simpsons takes the gold, I think. |

Favourite Simpson? Homer Favourite Non-Simpson? Moleman Favourite Episode? Homer's Barbershop Quartet or The President Wore Pearls Favourite Line? "You have the shinning!" "Don't you mean shining?" "Shhh, do you wanna get us sued" I think it goes something like that Favourite Song From A Show? The song they sing in "The President Wore Pearls" when they are taking the specials away. |

Oh man... I thought, when I read these questions, I'd just go with my gut. But, after reading all your answers I'm having trouble choosing. I've watched this show my whole life. It's like part of my soul
Favourite Simpson? Santa's Little Helper or Lisa Favourite Non-Simpson? Mr. Burns or Apu... Favourite Episode? Ahhh. So many. Right now it's "Mr. Plow" Favourite Line? BART: Dad, what's the point of this story? HOMER: I like stories. Or: NED'S CRAZY MOTHER: Helloooo Joooe. Favourite Song From A Show? Hmm. I liked Homer's Sinatra spoof with "When I was Seventeen" When I was seventeen, I had some very good beer. And it was very good beer... |
