Simpsons Overload

TV2 6:30, TV3 7:00, Sky1 7:00
Shit I think thats a bit too much

Forums: The Bar,

If you're a fan then it wouldn't be so bad unless they were practically the same episodes but yeah kinda looks like they're either trying to compete with each other (channels) or otherwise wanting to play all the episodes just to screen them & get them over & done with..Overload otherwise.

big deal. don't watch it.

I will be watching some of it, I still like The Simpsons, I just think its too much

You can't have too much Simpson's.

I agree! How can you have too much simpsons?

absolutely. i'd be keen for a 24/7 Simpson's channel ... the cool thing, i reckon, with this TV2/3 thing is that you can basically tune in and out depending on whether you saw the episode screening/saw it and didn't like it that much/saw it and it laughed for a week.

though the Simpsons are that type of show where you watch the first five minutes and have no idea what the episode is. at the 6th minute the plot just goes off into the ninth dimension all of a sudden.

a 24/7 simpsons channel will be the greatest innovation since the wheel was invented.

TV2 Plays the simpsons for another week then its a return to "dripside" urgh i fucken HATE that show

besides the Simpsons are 300% better than all this Reality TV "Overload" - on average 3 reality shows feature PER NIGHT. Reality TV Needs to be declared a "criminal organisation" it gives my generation a bad name.

There's one thing I agree with you on-Flipside, that program sucks.

aww poor Sam, unfortunate news, Flipside is screening FOUR nights a week this year, yep, FOUR nights a week, not including the Flipside Late which will ALSO be screening. Apparently it rated well or something...

flipside late is like a cruel joke on those too tired to turn off the tv.

at least with the laste news on tv 1 and 3 they actually have something new to watch and its not just a repeat of john camphell or judy bailey...

The thing that annoys me is that watching the TV3 Simpsons would force me to miss M*A*S*H

I've got a t-shirt that says H*A*S*H if thats any consolation.

mash is its end days - i was watching it the other night for the first time since it switched to 7pm and on the end credits it read (c) 1982, so it must be soon coming to an end. I Wonder what wuill replace it.

Oh real? Fuck. I hope they start again from the begining cause I missed the first couple of seasons of it...

i have to admit its gone downhill since radar left and klinger stopped going round in drag.

Wow. Mash Potatoe fans. I knew of the programme but to remember names..you got me there.

I learnt the song on guitar, it's funny

Funny? That sounds awesome to me. Good on you.

did anyone watch the thing on sky 1 on a weekend where they did a simpsons marathon, that was pure bliss

YES! Ah, greatness...

it was indeed. the actors studio thing was cool.

I missed the actor's studio because someone wanted to watch a different channel :(

yup, i enjoyed the actors thingee as well. Im just wondering about its recentivity as alot of stuff said on their was fairly recent.

I find it amazing that the voices of Mr Burns, Smithers, Flanders and Principle Skinner are done by the same guy.

harry shearer - i knew that ages ago, where have you been hiding all this time soldierboy?

Yeah I knew it was Harry Shearer - it was just sorta interesting seeing him doing all four voices live.

i have to admit im not as keen on seasons 1 and 2, its season 3 when the simpsons really did kick-off.

they change like, barneys shirt and hair in yellow and when they turn normal color thats when it gets good, and there's crappy homer voice, then it changes
Always loved seeing the smashing pumpkins and sonic youth on it though

Also Smithers is a different colour, he used to be brown!!

// Always loved seeing the smashing pumpkins and sonic youth on it though

I reckon one of the funniest exchanges ever is where Homer meets Billy Corgan.

Billy: Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins
Homer: Homer Simpson, smiling politely

Shit I started laughing out loud just typing it...

the Halloween specials are where they really kick ass
i peed my pants

I love when sometihing happens and lisa's saxaphone gets stolen and she's just blowing that bottle at a union strike or something
