I know I'm way late with this, but I caught a rerun of the Behind the Laughter episode for the first time today. My question is, did anyone besides me think this episode was way beyond pathetic. It got so bad I almost changed channels halfway through the show, which is something I never do. What was the purpose of that show? Are they so hard up for ideas, that they would run shit like that? That was just fucking awful.

i thought it was great....ya know, one of those classic 'replay old simpsons episodes', only this time it was a great parody of the VH1 'behind the music.' i think it was even the same narrator....
best line:
homer: "everday i thought about firing marge."

No no, the best line was this!
Narrator: The dream was over. Coming up-- was the dream really over? Yes, it was. Or was it?
Behind the Laughter is a Simpsons clip show, and we know what those are like, courtesy of http://www.snpp.com/episodes/9F17.html:
When asked what a coma is like, Grampa explains, ``It's like one of those TV shows where the show a bunch of clips from old episodes.''

There were some clips from old episodes, but they were hardly used in a half-assed "clip show" way. A distinct majority of the episode was made up of new material.

I also liked the joke about Homer cleaning mixing boards, that's such a clich� shot in those Behind the Musics. Sincerely, Little Girl
i like the quote "..but interacial homoeroticism was only the the first entry of encyclopedia self-destructica"
They don't say stuff like this on Behind the Music. ________________________________________________________________

Ummm... yeah... and the Simpsons are just actors on a TV show... right...
a. I don't remember the context that was in, but I'm guessing he was referring to the Simpsons as the family of actors, not the TV family the portray. They could live in different places.
b. I don't think you can really take anything from that episode seriously.

I think "tahat" they recorded a dif. location for each Sunday 8:00 eastern re-run...in the 2nd showing they said southern missouri...although grampa doesn't recognise missour'
Homer: Are you really the head of the Kwik-E-Mart? Master: Yes. Homer: Really? Master: Yes. Homer: You?
Krusty: Mel's supposed to say it, but he's dead. Bart: Dead? Krusty: Or sick, I dunno. I forget.

Second have you ever seen VH1? It was just a parody of that show off how VH1 makes the most uninteresting people sound interesting. There are episodes that i hate that people love, (notably Lisas Wedding, Radioactive Man, and Lemon Of Troy) Dont tottally diss an episode like that

Easy tiger, read the quote again. I don't hate kids, I hate stupid people.

In this case it made interesting characters unappealing. My opinion seems to be in the minority, however.
For the record, I loved Lisa's wedding. ------------- G-Hound

I liked it. One of the best TV parodies I've seen.
It may have been the best episode of (ugh) season 11, but I find it overrated.

LOL. Thanks for the reminder.
One of the better episodes in a while...I think some people have gotten so "the simpsons aren't as good anymore", that they don't just sit and enjoy what they are watching. Don't be so critical. And besides, so can't judge an episode until you've seen it 3 times. Just try it, and you'll see.

I also loved this episode. One of my favorite parts is where Homer is talking about his injuries and they show the clip from the episode where Homer accidentally skateboarded off of the mountain instead of Bart.

Jimmy Carter breakdancing was hilarious.
As was the picture of the Simpsons falling into 5 pieces, then having the hammer come into the frame and break each individual piece. ________________________________________________________________
