I cringed so hard at the sound it made when homer tossed that Stradivarius aside

[@olympiawa]

The part with Homer killed me. I wish I could find something like that.

[@triynizzles]

I just noticed how large all of their pupils are animated LOL

[@Zero-uw7kb]

every time i run across this clip for years the mayor has me laughing with the human roaches line.

[@vice.nor.virtue]

When I see the opening titles and the quality animation I get so excited because I know this is from the time when The Simpons was freakin good!!

[@allwrathnograpes]

The funniest part is how non-chalant skinner is about the prison thing

[@andrewt3417]

1:28 If there was ever a live action movie made, Herman Hermann should be played by Steve Buscemi?

[@pg8835]

absolutely

[@ironhell813]

Yes I think they should right after they axe the animated show

Gotta love Homer literally throwing away ~$48 million.

[@Emigdiosback]

what if they're reproductions?

[@dnakatomiuk]

This is when Skinner was great as a character because of his war past, especially when he's at school and turn his chair to the window and it goes dark and starts to talk about mother in the house on the hill. In fact the Simpsons in the earlier seasons were funny as hell then it went down hill after season 13 I think for me

[@MrParkerman6]

That was a reference to Psycho, jackass!

[@Genius_at_Work]

@@MrParkerman6 Skinners Vietnam Background was referenced numerous Times until that infamous Episode we shall not speak of.

It reminds me of in 5th grade we’d make or bring junk to sell, for class money, then again in 7th grade where we brought in junk to trade.

[@ChrisHinners008]

1:38 is that the Declaration of Independence?

[@max16]

And a first edition action comics. And those stamps have the plane upside down. I don’t remember but I know both if those are worth millions.

[@thedarkringedfox9998]

Yeah homer would of been rich if he sold those

[@tv-pp]

one of several original copies

[@mrbean2520]

i almost had a heartattack when he through that stradivarius violin

[@DrBigt]

It's funny that Homer could have become literal multi millionaire from buying that crate for like 2$.

[@drahprub7750]

Because only morons like him get the luck without ever knowing of it

[@beowulf1417]

Every part of this 1:59 video is pure comedy gold. It would skate through today's PC culture (not a criticism nor an endorsement of it so let's not have that discussion) and a lot of this stuff would still land with multiple demographics. If only the modern seasons could manage to have at least this much humour in an entire episode.

[@314rft]

I like how Marge is selling another one of her Ringo paintings along with the painting of Homer sleeping.

[@thefatman8119]

I like how homer went through a five cent box and said he found junk even though they were all priceless items

[@zjones9876]

I love classic Simpsons so much. It's still good, but there is something about the first couple of seasons that they never got back.

[@58LewisK]

pfft... only 26 conversions. Peter converted over 5000 in the 3 months after jesus died. and thats your religion fact of the day

[@williamchami3524]

God bless St Peter

[@chrisherr5152]

those were sad 3 months

[@itsonlyafleshwound9024]

Lewis K Maybe he converted himself 26 times? That would be noteworthy.

[@cobolt13]

Religion and facts never go hand in hand

[@roddydykes7053]

Lewis K That was a pretty big event to follow up on, obviously

[@sircolt8184]

I love the small details like Lisa's pupils getting bigger after learning a kid poked it's eye out or how Hermann owns a nuke that is just casually hanging from the sky in the background.

[@sircolt8184]

And of course for some reason Quimby imitating the Kennedy speech by speaking broken German while everybody cheers. It's like an insane asylum where everybody is friends with each other and the viewer. I love this show.

[@joshitheyoshi2533]

This clip is so much more satisfying now that I know all the references.

[@heliumtrophy]

Skinner could probably use that in this social distancing era and no one would think he was weird.

[@ironhell813]

They would again now

[@DanielTorres-ee4pl]

Just realized when the mayor spoke German it was to reference when Kennedy gave his speech at the Berlin Wall and spoke German to the German people attending the speech

[@cdeluna2]

Cool fact 👍
