This Simpsons was so great then! People need to go through these in order to see how stupid Family Guy is. King of the Hill was the other animation from this golden era, Futurama I'd include as well

During the riot, Ralph is seen in Bart's classroom eating paste, yet he is in Lisa's class. Are we to believe that this is some magic classroom that contains both the 2nd and 4th grades? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.
I'm pretty sure the original Simpsons had this kind of subplots specifically made for the children of the audience to love the show. And what a great work they did.
Then again, his briefs were reactive to the rain as well as he flings the uniform around in rebellion - his parents must have gone to the same store that Skinner does. An animation mistake or yet ANOTHER joke? Considering this is peak Simpsons, I think the latter.
@Watch TH-cam There's not much to explain. Skinner's mother's clothes would also change colours and she would presumably flip out. Chalmers would probably just enjoy the show.
Yep, Lisa had a problem here in this episode because she hated they style of the uniforms. I never understood why she threw trash at her. They should've thrown it at Martin because he was enjoying the reveal
ladyfire44 They threw trash at her because she is Bart’s sister and it’s an association thing, the same thing happened when Lisa joined the military school, initially both Bart and Lisa were outcasts, then Bart was excepted but Lisa was shunned even by Bart but he eventually came through for her as he loves her and didn’t want her to get hurt or killed, at the expense of being an outcast again by the other boys in the school.
It's because wearing the uniforms had some kind of power over them in making them behave once they were wearing them, which is why Martin looked like he wanted everyone wearing them like he was. Until they were ruined by the rain later when everyone, including Martin, ended the good behavior. Except one thing, if wearing the uniforms made them behave, why did Lisa look so reluctant to wear hers when Martin didn't wearing his?
Maybe because there are some shared words between Chalmers' opening comment here, "Well Seymour, I must say for once I am impressed" to "Well Seymour, you are an odd fellow, but I must say, you steam a good ham."
"Yeah, Moe. That team sure did suck last night. They were just playing sucks. I've seen teams suck before, but they were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked."
Cold Bart's T-shirt be self-referential? In the 90s there was a controversy about wearing Bart T-shirts to school. One of them said "underachiever and proud of it".
Seems likely, yes. I was of the age of kids banned from wearing Simpsons _anything_ at school. They weren't even on TV in Canada yet, at least for us poors with no cable or satellite.
4:30 If you listen closer,you can also hear them saying, "DAMN WITH HOMEWORK!, and "DAMN WITH UNIFORMS!, and all the Kids gone Wild and Nuts.🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Classic Simpsons where even tipping a desk can set on fire, and this Skinner is the best I wish they kept his past army memories and the walk towards the window and blind
@@Dubcuajxufbei things being pushed over and catching fire is shorthand for unruly behavior in western anime. The desk doing both is making fun of how easily it sometimes happens too easily to unlikely things.

Yeah. Now we have debates whether or not some deluded kid can enter the opposite sex bathroom because they *think* a certain way. Shit's no weirder than ever.

Let's not pretend cocaine is an unknown quantity in comedy writing circles.
What the last 20 seasons have lacked, now its maybe 2 or 3 jokes per episode that make u grin, none lol

"You're it" -- "Now you are the one who is it" -- "Understood." - My favourite Simpsons gag
This episode reminds me of recess a lot.
My all time favorite is still: Dental Plan!
I think that they sound like Portal Turrets when they say that.
Lisa needs braces!

0:26 Such a classic Simpsons moment when they tip over the desk and it starts to burn instantly
I love when the desk catches on fire, gets me every time.
HAHAHA. Yeah that is a nice touch.
Agreed, it takes the absurdity of the whole thing to a new level.

The bit with Ralph eating paste and the desk bursting into flames gets me everytime!
Why was he in Bart’s class?
@@smartindian8500 This triggered me a bit watching it.
Does he know that glue/paste is toxic?

Ralph doesn’t know how to go to the right classroom
I love Milhouses' facial expression when he realizes "the shirt makes a good point." Lol
UP WITH MINISKIRTS!
really?

I don't get it.
I dont get it
Finally a protest I can get behind
I love how comfortable Martin was modelling the uniforms. I wish I had half of his confidence
Skinner didn't understand the "up with miniskirts" joke? Man he is sexually repressed.
0:46 The entire school when you open a pack of gum
Jay Williams, Why are other students walking on my head?
I'm pretty sure the original Simpsons had this kind of subplots specifically made for the children of the audience to love the show. And what a great work they did.
I love how the desk goes on fire when they knock it over 😂😂😂
It wouldn't be a classic Simpson's episode without a random object catching fire
3:36 I love how they gave the children stereotypical robot voices.
That’s because school makes us robots, not adults.
0:27 they push the desk over and it randomly catches on fire LMAO
So Martin who is one of the school nerds even hated the uniforms? Wow. I though he would’ve loved them.
There's so much ass one can kiss...
He’s always had a secret freaky side
lol how can you even notice that... he seemed like Happy or Smug about it
Maybe he liked wearing them at first but then got tired of them after a while.
Then again, his briefs were reactive to the rain as well as he flings the uniform around in rebellion - his parents must have gone to the same store that Skinner does. An animation mistake or yet ANOTHER joke? Considering this is peak Simpsons, I think the latter.

That stew sounds pretty good.
I know right? I really want to taste it.
Binging with Babish did a video where he makes his own version of it, if you're curious.
"Oh they made us!, that's loser talk" that bit gets me everytime!
I love how his "thin" stew sounds pretty sumptuous with all them ingredients.
I was thinking the same
Its not just one or two quotes that make this 5 minutes great it is all of the quotes, it was so well written back in the day
0:48 Chalmers falls over before the kids even make contact.
2:04 YEAH IT'S ALL BART'S FAULT, BUT YOU WERE ALL WITH HIM WHEN HE SAID "DOWN WITH HOMEWORK"
That look of horror on their faces when they see the uniforms :D
Martin didn't seem to have a problem with showing off the uniform during the reveal, but then he's all "and down with uniforms" towards the end.
Yep, Lisa had a problem here in this episode because she hated they style of the uniforms. I never understood why she threw trash at her. They should've thrown it at Martin because he was enjoying the reveal
ladyfire44 They threw trash at her because she is Bart’s sister and it’s an association thing, the same thing happened when Lisa joined the military school, initially both Bart and Lisa were outcasts, then Bart was excepted but Lisa was shunned even by Bart but he eventually came through for her as he loves her and didn’t want her to get hurt or killed, at the expense of being an outcast again by the other boys in the school.
I still think that they shouldn't have done so regardless if Lisa was Bart's sister or not
It's because wearing the uniforms had some kind of power over them in making them behave once they were wearing them, which is why Martin looked like he wanted everyone wearing them like he was. Until they were ruined by the rain later when everyone, including Martin, ended the good behavior.
Except one thing, if wearing the uniforms made them behave, why did Lisa look so reluctant to wear hers when Martin didn't wearing his?
Is the entire Simpsons family dysfunctional?
Omg I’ve been quoting “They were the suckiest buncha sucks that ever sucked” all this time and it was from The Simpsons?!
It's a perfectly cromulent phrase.
Whenever there's something related to school, I might say "Blub, blub, blub" because school might be related to fishes.
I like to hear skinners Vietnam war stories. Funny Bart had to wear a sofa cushion the rest of the day to school and home.
Why did I expect seymour and chalmers to talk about hamburgers?
Maybe because there are some shared words between Chalmers' opening comment here, "Well Seymour, I must say for once I am impressed" to "Well Seymour, you are an odd fellow, but I must say, you steam a good ham."
Sasir well the scene was in the skinner and superintendent theme song
Hamburgers? Don't you mean steamed hams?
Interesting T Gang so, you call hamburguers steamed hams?
Did I say steamed hams? I meant steamed clams.
"They just can't get the spices right"
