Comic Book Guy: "Last night's 'Itchy & Scratchy' was, without a doubt, the worst episode ever. Rest assured that I was on the Internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world."
It's somewhere in the later third of this season (I'd say somewhere around the time that the ambulance crashed and dropped Homer back into Springfield Gorge), that the Simpsons became the truly brilliant series that it was during it's glory days. (And, to be fair, that it still shows the occasional signs of...)
Counting the moments, myself...

I totally agree about the third season, but wasn't "Bart the Daredevil" (season 2) the episode where he gets dropped into the gorge?

No, no, no, I meant the "latter third" of this season, as in the last 33.33333333%.

"Bart The Daredevil" was the eighth episode of season 2 to air. Some of it was cut to make room for the "Do The Bartman" video premiere.
Can't wait for the commentaries, to me they were the best part of the Season 1 DVD. They said a lot of things that I didn't know about the episodes, especially, "Some Enchanted Evening."

I wonder if Agnes will utter the great "Of course not, my bones are already half dust" if placed in Comic Book Guy's comic shop playset. That would rule.

During hockey games in college, my school's biggest rival was a school that had the word "Red" in their name, so the fans of that team would always yell "RED" in the "rockets red glare" phrase.
