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

In the "Tomacco" episode, I think.

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
