Things I like about Blunder Years:
Homer: "Nothing is hurt... except feelings." Homer: "Something else happened in that query...Something... else." Homer: "The old quarry is only a stone's throw away." Lisa: Stop saying that, Dad. Homer: NEVER!
Homer: Now do you believe dead rats float? Homer: Now the movie's turned into a play. Still good though. Ending voiceover by Moe: Moe: This first thing is just going to look like a used bandaid. And it is. But the rest of the stuff
don't make no sense without it. Marge: Wow Moe. You've been doing a lot of sleuthing. Moe: Oh yeah I sleuthed my ass of on this one. This is a six from someone's address. Or is it a nine? You don't know. This is gravel. OK?
Gravel. This is, that's more gravel. Oh, this is a shell, that to me, this is me talking, it looks
like a helmet for a mouse. That sounds crazy right?
Homer: "It was hard on me, too. I had to wear a suit." Frink: "It appears I have re-dorkulated." Homer: "Look at me, I'm a famous historian, outta my way!!" Homer: "Look at me, I'm a Angie Dickenson, outta my way!!"
Moe: "Look at all them stars. Bunch a lazy lights, don't do nothing for nobody." Lenny, Carl, Moe, Homer: [Put hands together in fire] Ow that hurts! Man we're stupid. Moe leaving after Simpsons declare it's a job for the Simpsons. Homer: Someone has eaten the flesh. [Looks at Lisa, Marge, then Lisa].
Burly: "Fantasize, Marge. Fantasize about Burly" (Thrusting humping motions) Marge fixing Bart's weekly clothing in a shuffling way. Moe: "My bar is empty is what. Why aren't you guys there?" Wiggum: It's just an old shopping cart. Homer: Oh and it's empty. Put it back, I don't want to see it this way!
Why does Marge call it "this blue liquid" and not water when she says to Lisa "pour this blue liquid"? They kept advertising about Paul Newman guest starring, but he had like one line. What's the deal with that? Anyone have the rest of the Moe voiceover on Fox stations that didn't cut it off? Why was it called the "Blunder Years?"
For a brief second after Burns said "Wayland Smithers" and before he said "Sr." I thought a sort of Arman Tanzarian plot would develop where the real Wayland Smithers died and a phony would take his place. I wouldn't put it above Scully and crew to repeat such a lousy plot.
