That reminded what a good movie Babe was.

Crystal off of Hüsker Dü's Candy Apple Grey.

One of my favorite sight gags: Homer's entrance robe vs. Tatum says "Opponent."

Ha ha! [shakes head] Not to scale.

My Dad called it The Simples.

From 2002-2003, UPN had a murderer's row of children's programming. Recess @ 3:30, Digimon @ 4:00, Legend of Tarzan @ 4:30, then two straight Simpsons.

I did enjoy when he tried and failed to get past the first round of Last Coming Standing multiple times, then eventually made it to the house and finished 6th.

The 138th Episode Spectacular is chilling top right.

I just made a Simpsons analogy to this man above, but the fading voice of Harry Shearer (70) is reminiscent of Charles Schulz's shaky lines in the 90's.

My favorite Paul F. Tompkins moment is his Stephen Sondheim impression, which sounds exactly like Kermit the Frog.

I love Jay Cutler; he reminds me of a drunk uncle playing after Thanksgiving dinner, only he has a cannon for an arm.

"As for this year’s Halloween episode, Jean says one segment will be a Neil Gaiman homage titled “School In Hell,” one will be a Clockwork Orange parody, and the third will be the previously announced crossover between the modern Simpsons and their ugly Tracey Ullman counterparts."
Those all sound intriguing.

I was watching a performance of "Bye, Bye Birdie" a couple months ago and realized that every time I see an over-confident character with phony gravitas I imagine Phil Hartman playing him.

Swartzwelder also wrote one of my favorite jokes ever, and it was a stage direction. In "Homer Simpson in Kidney Trouble" they go to this Wild West re-enactment and there's a phony shoot-out and during the middle of it, for no reason, one of the cowboys starts digging a hole with his hands.

The Cartridge Family

My grandma liked it actually. The first thing my grandpa said as the credits rolled was "That movie sucked."

I convinced my grandparents to take me to Inglorious Basterds (being under 18 at that time). My grandpa, a WWII veteran, didn't know the film was going to be heavily fictionalized.

There's not really a statue of Skerritt; just one of Hubert H. Humphrey, who resided there.

Trivia: The biggest claim to fame of my hometown (Waverly, MN) is that it was where Tom Skerritt first read the script for Alien. There's a statue of the occasion in our town square.

Not spectacularly dirty; I was just pretty thorough. I did make it all the way to "Glory of Man" though.
