Barf, Mushu, barf! Barf like a freshman!

Simpsons eps have a long lead-time, though, so even if it aired later, it might have been written earlier.

"Here's my prediction for the new millennium: Another 1,000 years of the same old crap."

I fucking adored Agent Pendrell and was *so* sad when he died. And that he got a kind of off-hand mention.

I've always detested Agua Mala.

I was in middle school when this aired, and my friends and I adored it. We walked around saying "Cerulean blue is a gentle breeze" to each other.

This is not only one of my favorite Marge-Homer eps, but one of my favorite eps period. It's super quotable, and really balances the heart and the humor. I'd love more eps like this, but I'm also 1,000 years old.

As a former grad student
I'm digging this episode.

Simpsons also already made fun of the Da Vinci Code.

I was like, "How are they breathing?"

There was a whole comic about Fry being on Who Wants to be a Millionaire, complete with Morbo as host. In the comic, Fry makes it to the end, but will die if he answers incorrectly. Leela is is his phone-a-friend and will die with him. But he remembers the answer thanks to something he learned from Scruffy.

Cask of Amontillado is about bricking up someone inside of a wall.

@Billyverona: There was short scene from the one with the 80s Guy, and also Freedom Day (Fry and Zoidberg dancing on the table) and the last scene was Leela falling out of the ship from the first episode of this season.

My mom was so mad about what happened to Queequeg she refused to watch any eps with the dog in them.

Sam Adams is also the name of Portland, Oregon's mayor! I like to think the mayor moonlights for the AV Club.

Meadow, I would like to read that slashfic when you are done.

"Now I'm off to some charity bash for knocked up teenage sluts."

I remember loving Small Potatoes. I recently rewatched it, and it was pretty boring, at least compared to other Morgan eps. Then I watched Bad Blood and felt much better.

I expected a lot more Decemberists songs on this list….

I see what you did there!
