Bart: "That's not a knife, that's a spoon"
Aussie kid: "I see you've played knifey-spooney before."
Greatest Simpsons moment EVAH. Except possibly the canyon ambulance rescue gag.

b-b-but "Pi is exactly three!" => that episode is klassik!!!
Around the five thousandth round of repeats The Simpsons ceased to be a television programme as we know it [plot, character development, all that jazz] and became part of the social landscape. It became so ubiquitous and self-aware it really has nowhere else to go than complete self-deconstruction.

Oh. That reminds me. Those of you condemning New Simpsons for being pointless/no longer funny, what's your take on the similarly absurdist Family Guy?

The Shift article that mark p recommends is OTM, but misses the other effect of the richness of the material: it's not just that there are things that everyone remembers, but there are things in there just for you, and that you can hold to your heart ("Brevity is ... wit").
Simpsons = Pop Music.

That said, I'm really sorry that Futurama's getting cancelled. Dr Zoidberg is funnier than half the Simpsons cast put together.

As far as Homer-caused deaths go, do the Halloween episodes count? In the first part of XII (which I'm watching now for the first time) his dunderheadedness manages to kill Lenny, Carl, Moe and Bart.
