Out of interest, what is the highest quality set you can get of the series? DVD? Bluray?
Of the classic seasons? Still DVD.
They've only started putting recent seasons on BluRay (starting with Season 13).

I'm expecting a full BluRay set when the show finally leaves the air but that may still be a few years away.

Bleh. I hope the classic stuff comes out in HD someday.

You and me both. Even the digital releases of classic era episodes are SD-only as of right now.

Perhaps that's what FOX will do when one of the VAs finally dies.
They'll keep The Simpsons on in prime time for another dozen or more seasons simply by re-animating older episodes into clear, crisp high-definition.
Could easily sail past Season 40 that way.

I don't want crisp, clear vintage Simpsons. It wouldn't feel right!

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Something I like about Simpsons, over say, Family Guy, is that the way they are designed doesn't give the "caricature" vibe.

"Oh boy, sleep! That's where I'm a viking!"

Let's settle this: is Ralph good at sleeping, or is he a viking in his dreams?

Do you mean what we thought when we first saw the episode? Or what we think now that there's been rigorous debate over the quote?

Either way, it's the latter, for me. We don't have any sayings here where we equate being a viking to being skillful at something.

Then it makes sense, given Ralph's nature, that he would make that comparison!

It also makes sense that Ralph would be "good at sleeping" because it requires no skill.

but who the hell cares?

I guess it doesn't make sense to me because we don't say anything like that here. Do people in the US really talk about stuff they're good at and say "That's where I'm a viking?". I woulda thought it'd be more like "That's what I'm a viking at", if anything.

Anyway just outta interest I was looking to see where my cutoff for good vs bad episodes was, scrolling through seasons and reading some synopses. I honestly thought my cutoff might be Season 10 or so but turns out it's Season 8 (inclusive), and that's still being pretty generous.

If I can get Season 1-8 in HD someday I'll be happy.
 
I have honestly never thought it meant anything other than he's happy to go to sleep cause in his dreams he is a Viking.

I had no idea there was even a 'discussion' over it until I just read that right then lol.

Wtf @ the phrase I'm a Viking at doing something meaning you're good at it. o_O

He's good at sleeping
This is what I thought immediately the first time I saw the episode. I don't understand how people can possibly not understand that we base our beliefs on what our minds immediately came up with. It's not that hard.

He's good at sleeping.

Why are you guys doing this again? Stop.
I think I have something to help with this argument in my car hole.

Anyone have a gif of when Homer and Burns are glaring at each other, then laughing, then glaring at each other again?
