The Blue And The Gray

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

The kids FINALLY freaking out about their hair was classic :lol:

"WHAT ARE WE?"

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Bart, Lisa, and Maggie freaking out about where their head ends and hair starts rotfl

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Lisa drawing a hairline on herself:lol:

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Some funny bits tonight -- esp. the hairline bit.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

This was, for me, one of the funnier eps in a long while.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

I liked this episode.

Homer trying to imagine a Bond girl :lol:

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Patty and Selma's hair color is due to ash and smoke. :lol:

Good episode.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Lots of good lines in this episode. I even enjoyed the throwaway line about cousin Jessica.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

I didn't watch the episode so sorry if this was talked about, but hasn't Marge's hair been gray for years?

Harry Shearer's
One Night Stan's

Got a chuckle out of those.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

yes in Season 5's "Secrets of a Successful Marriage" Homer revealed that Marge uses blue hair dye #56 and has been "gray as a mule" since she was 17.

I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of *snort snort* magic hair or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

I also really liked the Bart, Lisa and Maggie hair gag. "Head, Head, Head, Hair... Where's the border!?!" :lol:

I highly doubt that would happen. Over the last few years, The Simpsons have contradicted previously established continuity several times, including things like how/when Marge and Homer met and the situations surrounding the kid's being born.

That stuff's a much bigger deal than whether Marge dies her hair or not, and no one was fired for those mistakes.

Seeing as we are unfamiliar with sarcasm, I shall close the register at this point.

From Season 8's "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show

Genius At Work: "In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of a [the three nerds chuckle] magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder."

Man, have the Simpsons been on for so long that the magic xylophone bit has been forgotten?

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Oh, I was unaware that sarcasm translated well through text. Also, sorry I forgot one throw away line from an episode that aired 14 years ago. -ptth-

From Season 7's "Marge Be Not Proud"

Comic Book Guy: [sighs] Allow me to summarize the proposed transaction: You wish to purchase Bonestorm for 99 cents. Net profit to me, negative $59.

[opens cash register] Oh, oh please, take my $59. I don't want it. It's yours.

[Bart reaches for cash register]

Comic Book Guy: It seems we are unfamiliar with sarcasm. I shall close the register at this point and state that 99 cents is the rental price.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Some Simpsons fan you are! These aren't throw-away lines ... These are CLASSICS!

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Well, to tell you the truth, I do really like The Simpsons (At least Seasons 1-12, although I don't hate the later ones, just don't like them as much) I just don't re-watch them that often.

That and I don't remember every line from every episode.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

I haven't watched The Simpsons in probably 10 years or maybe even more. I used to love it and still do enjoy the older episodes but it just lost it at some point in the past in my eyes and I never got back into it.

Anyway, I got the xylophone one right away but the Bonestorm one went over my head, but I remembered it as soon as he explained it. In my opinion either one was a classic Simpson line, but good ones nonetheless.

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Most fans of The Simpsons remember that line. It's one of the most classic lines from the show.

Also, "A Wizard did it."

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

Best. Thread. Ever.

;)

Re: The Simpsons -- "The Blue And The Gray" -- 02/13/11
 

So nobody else caught the line at the very end when Marge asked Homer if he colored his hair too, in which he replied:

"Only my Hair Dresser knows for sure" as he leans toward the camera and you can see his 2 hairs are blue. I'm sure that would not be noticeable if not in HD.
