I'm suddenly so sad that I wasn't around for the "neighborhood" days of GeoCities.

My only exposure to ADHD was the one night I watched a High School USA marathon. I hope Dino Stamatopoulos gets another chance on FXX.

I loved Tina's insistence on leaving a paper trail despite her troop leader's wishes. "Okay, I'll write a letter and mail it to myself and not open it."

That wasn't the finale. There were two more new episodes on Fox that fall, and another four shown the following spring in syndication and on Adult Swim. The last fall 2009 episode is considered the finale, presumably because it was the last one produced.

Apparently some company bought the rights and has just started releasing new seasons again. Seasons 7 and 8 came out last month. Previously, the DVDs ended with season 6 and "Returning Japanese". I probably would have stopped at 5 or 6.

Thank you! Much like The Office, I think it suffered after Greg Daniels left.

I'll agree with you on "Simpson Tide" and the Shary Bobbins episode.

That doesn't explain why Futurama has its own SNPP-style site, unless that's because early Futurama fans were the same people as Simpsons fans.

Part of the reason this episode feels so different is that it was produced by Al Jean and Mike Reiss, not Oakley/Weinstein or Scully, as part of the 4-episode "3G" run. The others are "Simpsoncalifragilistic…", "Lisa's Sax", and "Simpson Tide".

I know Rabin was the one who made a lot of basic mistakes. Was he also the Classic Simpsons reviewer who liked to just sum up the episode's plot with barely any commentary? I have a tendency to mix people up here.

Also from the Scully years: "PRAY FOR MOJO"

I think in past discussions of this, the consensus is that the last massively quoted line was either "Save me, Jeebus!" or "Stupid sexy Flanders!", both from mid-season 11.

On that note, I'm disappointed that King of the Hill never got a big online fanbase. There's no episode capsules, lists of syndication cuts, or even message boards that I remember - just crappy wikis that take half their information from Wikipedia and a fake Arlen, Texas site.

No, no! Snpp.com has not disbanded! (see my comment)

Jeff and Roy started ELO together, and they split singing and songwriting duties on the first album. It was Roy who left, and he took half the band (and I think the sound engineer) with him when he started Wizzard.

More or less following in the footsteps of The Office, which always wound up with a lot of deleted footage available elsewhere. They even experimented with revealing plot points in deleted scenes (most notably, where Andy went after he punched the wall) in an attempt to get more people to watch them.

This episode was, at the time, regarded by many people as the moment that the show jumped the shark. History has redeemed it, but I can certainly understand a fan of the first 8 or 10 seasons disliking it (even though it's one of my favorites).

Turns out the Comics Curmudgeon guy was an SNPP regular during Season 8! And he was a pretty big fan.
