It's not only sad from a human standpoint, but also sad from an OFF standpoint. Phil Hartman's characters gave OFF depth that is sorely lacking in more recent episodes.

That's basically the reason The Simpsons started to deteriorate during season 10, after Phil's last apperance in "Bart the Mother" -Ned Farley

But it's a bit more gentle than saying his psycho bitch wife killed him and then herself isn't it?

Yeah that was a damn crying shame, Phil used to make me smile with his different character voices. When i watch a tape and one of his characters is talking it's always a little sad now :(

What is a wedding? Webster's Dictionary defines it as, "the process of removing weeds from your garden."

It's only a shame they weren't able to find replacements for those characters otherwise (at least for Hutz, they could've stated McClure as being dead otherwise in my book).

Domo Arigatoo to Sayonara!

It wasn't a matter of being unable to find replacements. The characters were retired out of respect for Phil Hartman.

See, cousin Merl, "Aaron Hirshberg" and me, we were playing with Geech. That's our old smell-hound. And...

Quite impossible. Last I checked, they were still grappling with the pickle matrix bhay-gn-flay-vn.

oh cousin merle, really!

That is possibly one of my FAVORITE Simpsons scenes in all of the episodes. Just classic. heh.

My other favorite would be from "Homer's Phobia." I don't know the P code because I am a lazy bastard. But I digress. I don't remember exactly how it goes, but it is where Homer is raving about how great John is and Marge explains that he is gay. heh. The laughs never end.

Heh heh. You know me, I like my beer cold, my TV loud and my homosexuals flaming.
