I genuinely wonder how this channel doesn’t have millions of subscribers I haven’t even watched it yet but all the other videos are amazing so I’m sure this one will be too

[@TheSimpsonsTheory]

Thanks so much 😊

[@daniapfel2825]

​​@@TheSimpsonsTheory 39:12 It’s weird because it’s a continuity retroactive. Did you know King of The Hill did that ? 40:10 Other error Patty and Selma seem like they have 2 or 3 years less than Marge so you saw in a flashback they are teenagers and Marge a child

0:06 Sideshow Bob popping off

[@supremelordofawesomeness]

😂

[@TheDanishGuyReviews]

I like how Homer's love for music was mentioned. That's something I personally picked up on on my complete re-watch last year. His favourite song is It's Raining Men, but he also loves Wichita Lineman. It's put on as mood music at the house party where he creeps on Maude, he plays it as hold music when calling about getting Marge out of rehab, and he has the record of Glen Campbell, who has sung it before.

[@mathieuleader8601]

I have a theory that because Mr. Burns mentioned he was a survivor of the Titanic and the mentioning of a boating accident I believe all of Burns siblings perished in the sinking of the Titanic.

[@jennahunter5820]

That’s a cool theory and sounds like it could be true

[@Robertannoyingherman]

Seymour Skinner has pretty much convinced himself he is Agnus's son

[@catcat8496]

I've loved watching these videos in the background for entertainment all the time including rewatching most videos

[@DoublePack337]

The he fact that sideshow bob is breaking it down is beautiful to me

[@Yakkymania]

same. & in the episode, the song playing is swamp by talking heads, & i love talking heads so that makes it even more beautiful.

[@Polycomical]

Impressively comprehensive. In terms of fave character it's so hard. For one-offs it would be Hank Scorpio. In terms of regulars I would say Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz (RIP Phil Hartman).

[@ManAndDogFan]

Absolutely! Lionel Hutz is my favorite side character. No, money down. Gosh I miss Phil Hartman

[@CEO_of_Steidi]

mindy simmons is my fav even though she's basically just a replica of homer.. also shauna chalmers!!

[@TheCaptainAmelia]

Not even a few minutes in, and I find out that Sideshow Bob can breakdance

[@sakurashy8492]

I’m convinced that certain seasons take place in different timelines. Like the contrasting stories are because certain episodes take place in different decades like the 90s, 2000s,2010s, 2020s. Why else would Artie Ziff be trapped in jail then suddenly out and rich again?

Another fantastic video, thank you Lydia. You never fail to teach me something new even though this is my favorite show of all time. I had no idea they retconned Skinners birth like that! Got to search that episode up now 😮..

[@MTTT19]

Awesome vid! I can certainly see that a lot of research went into this one. There were things about some of these characters that even I didn’t know about. As for favourite character(s), that’s a tricky one as I often go back and forth between whom I like the most. But for now I say my Top 3 are Lisa Simpson, Barney Gumble and Mr. Burns.

20:26 I remember seeing in an opening sequence of one of the newer episodes, where Mole Man was drinking a smoothie and the uranium rod that got stuck in homers back landed in it. He was super buff and like in his mid 20’s then he took a sip of the now radioactive smoothie and turned into the shriveled up little man we know

Brillant idea Ed, Edd n Eddy is one of my favorite cartoon network cartoons(and cartoon shows in general), would love a coverage of that show. If she likes horror/horror comedy I'd love a coverage of Courage the cowardly dog or The grim adventures of Billy and Mandy. But to continue Rugrats and Fairly Odd Parents would be really nice too, as I remember, she only did a few videos on those shows.

[@bluewinterwolf]

Fun Fact: Fat Tony was based off of the Goodfella's Paul Sorvino and one of the henchmen was based off of another Goodfella's mobster Frank Sivero. Edit: Mona (Homers Mom) didn't abandon him, she left to keep him safe. In a later episode, Homer and Mona reunite and she explains everything, the fact she was a spy on the run and that she loved him and just wanted him safe.

[@themarcai6394]

This was fun, thanks

[@herooftime420]

Kurt and liann are cousins. in the episode, Bart falls in love. at the end of the episode Milhouse says. " if you still have blue fever I have plenty of other cousins you can try" bart responds with no thanks I think I'm going to stay clear of vanhausens for a while. Milhouse says suit yourself Imma stick with my cousins it worked out pretty well for my parents." he says parents with a snake tongue implying generic deformities from being an insest baby

[@COBO2]

I really would love for a Simpsons episode where Marge calls out her sisters 😂 while they trash Homer Marge could say at least she found true love and have kids 😂

Very good video and wait you were a flight attendant?

[@happyslapsgiving5421]

As a man and a flight attendant for 15 years, I feel personally attacked. 😅

[@renmyaru]

principal and the pauper would fit into the timeline if you consider that Agnes had two sons. the first son being Seymour Skinner who was MIA in Vietnam, and Armin tamzerian who would be abandened a few towns over when young enough to not remember his family. the two brothers reunited in Vietnam without knowing each other, and Agnes saw the spitting image of Sheldon Skinner on her doorstep in a military uniform and decided to roll with it. this was not Seymour, but he was a Skinner. once Seymour came back she realized how much she preferred the second son over the first, and not wanting to complicate her situation at her age she didn't tell the full story.

[@mathieuleader8601]

I really do hope that someday the Simpsons make an episode on how Bart met his future wife Jenda.

[@HX_PLAYZ]

You Forgot how Chief Wiggum Met His wife Sarah and The job He had When he did

[@Duderocks5539]

I believe prior to that, it showed they were at High school prom, meaning they likely met in high school, but then it showed he was already a cop at the time he met her the second time, but he was too shy to say anything to her, so he planted drugs on her so that’ll she’ll notice him, that way he can arrest her and then full in love with him, which I’m sure she did as well. Sarah is innocent though. That Season 32 is a prejudiced, retconned forced mess that changed everything, including her original character and mannerisms, and it also alters Clancy’s backstory. They made her into a bisexual hooker who clearly doesn’t even love him and all for the sake of sex for money. That makes Clancy look like a POS, along with Ralph, and of course, Sarah. Horrible episode.

Fat tony is my favourite character "legs louie advance menacingly on him"😂

[@lostboy8084]

On a side note Onion Belting is actually telling stories one after another in layers like a onion by rambling on tangents where one story will bring up a totally unrelated topic. So basically it came about having an onion belt or having a onion on belt was foreshadowing him going into such stories. I couldn't find a absolute first source but I have a strong feeling that it was Simpsons that caused this reference to become widely used for a while usually in reference to older people. Haven't heard it recently but if people wanted to know it from belting out as singing lyrics or telling stories and onion which has various layers in a onion or here various stories in one story.

[@richardbraithwaite8615]

I'm going to defend Mona Simpsons because I feel it's not great but it's a typical loveless marriage to begin with. Abe had cheated on her, wasn't appreciating her which wasn't much of a life to cling to but it also wasn't like she had much of a choice given she was on the run from the Law. She tried to write to Homer, she went straight to the grave as soon as she heard of his death and when she wasn't doing her best for him, she was fighting corrupt forces underground which was a much higher calling than a complacent housewife.
