3. Marge vs. the Monorail (Season 4, 1993) A tribute to The Music Man, written by Conan O'Brien. A straw-hatted huckster blows into town and, using a catchy song-and-dance routine, manages to sell Springfield an unnecessary monorail of dubious safety. Homer becomes conductor. An amazing musical number; Leonard Nimoy in a random guest appearance. What else could you want? Besides being replete with excellent jokes, this episode reveals the town's mob mentality and its collective lack of reason. This is the episode that defines Springfield more than any other. Great moment: Homer is watching television. TV commercial: "Are you squandering the precious gift of life in front of the idiot box? Are you on your third beer of the evening?" Homer: "Does whiskey count as beer?"

yes, top 5 for sure. If I had to pick a favourite episode of all time, it probably has to be Margs/Gambling addiction (Springfield Casino episode). So many one liners.

Did anyone watch last Sundays? The Simpsons take on "World of Warcraft" (as Southpark did last year), it has to be in my top 5 as well. So well done.

$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)P-code: 1F08 Writers: Bill Oakley, Josh Weinstein Director: Wes Archer Airdate: 16th December, 1993 Guest stars: Robert Goulet as himself, Gerry Cooney as himself. Rating: Episode synopsis >> Springfield is suffering an economic slowdown, so the townspeople decide to legalize gambling. Mr. Burns builds a casino on the waterfront, and hires Homer as a blackjack dealer. When Marge finds a quarter on the floor at the casino, she starts gambling and keeps winning. Soon she is addicted. Lisa worries about her, and makes her promise to help her with a costume for the upcoming Geography Pageant at school. But when Marge doesn't show up to help her, Homer goes to the casino and confronts her. Marge admits she has a gambling problem and leaves the casino with Homer. Memorable quotes >>Homer: (wearing glasses) The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side! Man: (in a cubicle) That's a right triangle, you idiot! Homer: D'oh! Lisa: Dad, you shouldn't wear glasses that weren't prescribed for you. Homer: Lisa, just because you're ten feet tall doesn't mean you can tell me what to do. Quimby: I propose that I use what's left of the town treasury to move to a more prosperous town and run for mayor. And, er, once elected, I will send for the rest of you. Barney: Man, that's classic compulsive behavior. Wow, free beer! Homer: Marge, we need to talk. You're spending too much time at the casino and I think you may have a problem. Marge: I won sixty dollars last night. Homer: Woohoo! Problem solved! Lisa: I'm not a state, I'm a monster! Homer: No, Lisa. The only monster here is the gambling monster that has enslaved your mother! I call him Gamblor, and it's time to snatch your mother from his neon claws! Burns: Ah, my beloved plant. How I miss her... Bah! To hell with this! Get my razors! Draw a bath! Get these Kleenex boxes off my feet! Smithers: Certainly, sir. And, uh, the jars of urine? Burns: Oh, we'll hang onto those. Homer: You promised Lisa to help her with her costume. You made her cry. Then I cried. Then Maggie laughed... she's such a little trooper! Homer: Marge, I want you to admit you have a gambling problem. Marge: You know, you're right, Homer. Maybe I should get some professional help. Homer: No, no, that's too expensive. Just don't do it any more.

Mr Plow is probably my fav episode.
Any ep with Homer talking to his brain usually has some memorable quotes.

Oh and Stonecutters. Can't forget the Stonecutters

My fave is still Halloween episode IV, just because of one of Marge's lines...I crack up so hard every time...

"Oh GOOD, the curtains are on fire!"

LOL

Jon the best one from that episode is where homer says something like: "A gambling monster has taken over your mother, I call him gamblor and I vow to save your mother from his neon clutches". LOL.

That ep plus the mr plow one, the monorail one for sure, stone cutters, when the Germans take over the power plant!

Homer: Lalalalalalala (dreaming about Germans being from the 'land' of chocolate, are we still talking about chocolate?
German plant manager: ZAT WAS TEN MINUTEZ AGO!
Homer: Oh...

Fuck SO many from that era...best show ever.

Und ich tanz einfach weiter...

probably my favourite episode is when apu gets fired from the quicky mart and james woods comes to replace him.

Homer: Your old meat made me sick!
Apu: Oh, I'm so sorry. [gets a pail of shrimp] Please accept five
pounds of frozen shrimp?
Homer: [holds one up, sniffs it] This shrimp isn't frozen! And it
smells funny.
Apu: OK, ten pounds.
Homer: Woo hoo!



Woods: 75, 85, 90, and a dollar. Thank you, and come again. Hey, wait
a minute! Hey! Uh...could I just ask you a question? Did
you...did you _believe_ that, the way I gave you the change? Did
I sound like a _real_ Kwik-E-Mart, you know, kind of guy?
Jimbo: Actually, I thought it was a little labored.
Woods: Oh.
Jimbo: You've got to lose yourself in the moment, man!
Woods: Yeah, like, yeah, OK, great! OK, let's, let's just try that
again, OK? Come on. Hey, come on -- hey! Get over here. OK,
now you're you, I'm me.
Jimbo: [with trepidation] I'm me?
Woods: [grabs his collar] Hey -- don't..._jerk_ me around, fella.

This is one of my favorite lines from the show.

The bust of Mr Burns as a mermaid in the lobby of the casino was pretty funny too.

As many times as I swear I've seen each episode, they always make me laugh. Even the shitty ones.

My fave episode is the one where the George Bush Sr. moves in across the street.

What makes it even funnier is the fact that Groenig and Barbara Bush were having a bit of a press war before this. Yet, they make Barbara look like a total sweetheart in the episode while George gets the boot laid into him as the antagonist ("I'll ruin you like a Japanese banquet!" ) a la Dennis The Menace.

all the eps you guys mentioned are classic. some other fav's:

when they go into witness protection as "the thompsons".

"when i say hello mr. thompson and stomp on your foot, you say hello back"
*stomps on foot*
"i think he's talking to you"

Or the "dental plan" episode.

Or the one where Bart signs his soul away to Milhouse. haha
