If I was Conan O'Brian and the world only knew me as the writer of the monorail episode, that would be fine with me.
That’s unfair. Everyone knows he wrote the Homer Goes to College episode as well.
@@kisbie that one wasn't as good. It felt out of place imo
You're right, he wasnt famous at all. not one bit. no siree bob. not on my watch. now let us all raise a choco taco in honor of the little guy
@@DonsStudios are we talking about episodes he did alone? Because he’s been working with the simpsons for a few seasons not a few episodes
You're a Mono.
"The kids could call you HoJu!" ...always hilarious!
I'll get back to you! xD
A reference to the Sega Gamegear Howard Johnson ads
This episodes has more funny moments than the last five seasons
@@ghendar Make that twenty
Hoju in Korean means Australia
"Actual institute may not match photo."
lmao...I love that shit!!
That's Hollywood for you
Don’t swear
The serious voiceover as well, I cannot stop laughing!🤣🤣🤣
The photo of the institute is based on the Parsons building in Pasadena. I was there earlier today and it kills me that everyone working there don't know it's actually the Lanley Institute of Monorail Conduction
@restonnash7763 But it isn't though. It's just a generic classroom with a piece of paper stuck on the door.
I like how homer already has 3 beer bottles near him, but apparently also had whiskey on top of those.
pretty normal thing right, i do that, start with a whiskey or two to 'kick things off' then maintain buzz with beer.
Liquor before beer, never fear, beer before liquor never sicker
There are actually 4 empty bottles, not counting the one Homer's drinking. When the TV asked "are you on your third beer of the evening?" I'm guessing his logic took into account that at least a few of those were from the afternoon, i.e. before evening.
Huh, you watch adrianbliss too?@@aquariansword
The question of "True or False: you can get mono from riding the monorail?" Is my favourite joke of the episode. Between it being an actual question from a practice test, to Homer second guessing the obvious answer, to Nancy Cartwright's perfect delivery make this one of the best lines of the whole series to me.
And the abbreviations MCAT is the med school entrance exam
Bart is so supportive of his dad getting one answer 🥲
They fit this many gags into 95 seconds, and they all added to the story. Prime Simpsons writing.
"Idiot Ruins Game. Springfield Forfeits Pennant." LMAO
Why would Springfield have to forfeit the pennant just because Homer runs out onto the field?
@@girlgardeBecause he’s Homer Simpson!
0:24 the utter desperation in Marge's voice always gets me
For whatever reason that near 'mirror image' of homer always fills me with joy 😂 I think it's the subtle differences that make it and the fact his expression never changes.
Lanley is literally stood behind him talking about the exciting world of Monorail Conducting and the man barely even blinks.
1:22 "What about us brain dead slobs?" "You'll be given cushy jobs!" See, Lyle Lanley was honest!
I love how the guy in the ad continues staring blankly when Lyle Lanley walks in
I love the fact that he looks remarkably similar to homer even more. It's just ridiculous humour "oh come on" humour like this that they don't even mention that is a part of what made the early Simpsons episodes so good. It's just targeting homer in particular or mocking him as some lazy oaf who will take any job that comes his way.
Barney- "oh I hate that sound"
Wait how many times has he done that....
Considering he is addicted to alcohol and construction culture, yes.
The satire is poignant and the stories from the industry speak for the existance of several Bareys.
Who ever edited this knew to end on the funniest thing.
I have no idea and I do not think I want to know either.
What I want to know is whose house they dropped it on lol
@@jeffkahl someone who not going to live next to it
I like how they use a normal rope to lift the monorail
It's also great that a single monorail car was strong enough to crush the entire foundation of that house.
I mean, a single rope aas ablw to stop the monorail, so maybe Speingfield just makes some really fucking strong ropes.
"Ho-Ju". lol.
"Should we take our hidden camera?"
"Would you?"
Do you want to change your name to Homer Junior?
The kids can call you HoJu!!
The same thing was said for Breaking Bad. The kids could call him Wal-Ju!
Ill get back to you.
Does Smith-Chuster first name is Julian Junior ?
He can be friends with Joey Jo Jo Junior Shabadoo.
@@NightMotorcyclist That's the worst name I've ever heard.
I love that Homer just talks to the TV
What’s it to you?
love the Homer-style slob in the ad guzzling down his beer whilst actual Homer's thinking "nuh uh thats not me"....why cant the Simpsons producers make episodes like this anymore?
Conan O'Brien wrote the episode.
Cuz producers don't make tv shows, dumbass. They fund them. Writers and Directors make them.
@@MrParkerman6 They can still instruct the writers and directors of what kind of content they want ... and they do.
They do.
Because all the old writers left decades ago?
“Do you wanna change your name to homer junior, the kids can call you ho ju” 😂💀💀😂
@0:50. Lmao..the Guy with the hidden Camera in the turban...that gags just cracks me up.
" Lets go, Phil."
Camera taped to his head.
Superb
Lol love how the guy in the ad looks exactly like Homer, including clothes
Wrong, dumbass! He has a full head of hair and no 5 o clock shadow!!!!
Homer's doppelganger from Shelbyville
Yes, that is indeed the joke
Congratulations on getting an obvious joke
He did?? I didn't even notice
in a parallel world, Barney was a programmer finally running his code for the first time
My house! I'm not supposed to have a train thrown at it!
Langley didn't lie about getting Barney a job.
I can almost hear Phil Hartman's Zapp Brannigan in the Monorail Saleman Lyle Lanley.
It would have blown your mind
Now that I'm an adult I understand his dream of running on the field and best part I understand what the news paper says
"are you on your third beer of the evening?"
"does whiskey count as beer?"
How many life long dreams has Homer had? I know one was to do a live performance and eat a hoagie...
Huh, and he really follows thru with them.
+Giovanni Magnus Don't forget owning the Dallas Cowboys.
I remember he didn't quite succeed with owning the Dallas Cowboys, but he did own the Denver Broncos.
Giovanni Magnus And then sold them to Moe to pay off his tab
+TheRoflcer Bless you, Hank Scorpio! You were too good for this series.
Hey, maybe that guy in the ad is Guy Incognito... There is a resemblance.
To think "The kids can call you HoJu" is a Conan O'Brien line. Great writer
I'll be honest, I don't know what was going through the classic Simpsons writers' heads when they thought being a safety inspector at a power plant is an "emasculating, dead end job".
Isn't the joke supposed to be that Bart would think that of any job Homer had before he became a monorail conductor, as per the trope of "kid doesn't respect what parent does for a living"?
RIP the people in that house
Barney getting that job in the first place lmaooo
Episode is such a pure classic and my favorite.
Lol, answers 1 question and isn't even sure of the answer. Bart: wow you really are gonna be a monorail conductor.
I love the complete disinterest from the commercial actor. Just such a funny gag of the absurdity of stepping up your career by becoming a monorail conductor.
I want to see a highlight episode for the couch guy from the monorail commercial. He looks like a chipper fellow.
Does whiskey count as beer?
Came here by searching that quote. Classic!
Yes, eh.
Whiskey is distilled. Beer is fermented. So, no
Only if you drink it by the pint.
Liquor before beer, you’re in the clear.
"True or False...You can get mono from riding the monorail?" XD
Who would be dumb enough to think that answer would be true???
False.
@Big_dro
It is true if someone else on the monorail has it, dumbass. Mono is Highly contagious!!!! Dats duh Joke!!!!!
@@MrParkerman6 and that's the beauty of the question, you can catch mono in the train, not from the train
@@1TheVelociraptor Train? You mean the Monorail?
the opposite homer at the start looks so funny hahahaha.
My mum worked for decades at a company in Toronto that had a working prototype for a monorail at the back of the parking lot. It had about 400 metres of track. As far as I know, they never sold one. They did, however, successfully land contracts to build many satellites and they designed and built the arm for the U.S. Space shuttle (the Canadarm).
Well, that's something.
Conan absolutely MUST write the last episode of the Simpsons....assuming he hasn't been dead for thirty years by then mind you, considering there seems to be no end in sight.
in hindsight lyle was really lucky most springfielders were to dumb to figure out he was scamming them cause he did not do a good job hiding it.
That shot of the "Monorail Institute"...I swear to Christ that looks like an artists rendering of a view of the Parsons Architectural HQ in Pasadena, CA. Just add the big blue *PARSONS* letters to the top of side facing the viewer and that it.
Anybody from SoCal., tell me if I'm crazy or not.
It's as if most animation studios operate out of California...
Hey I wasn't trying to say that's unlikely guys,
I just thought it was a little uncanny they might have used a building I saw going into work every day for 8 years as a template for a simple sight gag...and presumed it was more likely I was just being silly and wanted to see if anyone else saw it, that's all.
:P
Anony Mous Well, I mean, that IS sort of their style...
Fact check:...
Yes, looks like it. More than a little bit.
Doing a quick Google check, yeah it totally is.
That's kinda the joke - they're stealing the image of a prestigious architectural corporation to give themselves a facade of credibility
"Does whiskey count as beer?"
Since when does Homer drink whiskey?
Homer likes to buy Old Harper.
The Lanley Institute later morphed into for-profit online universities.
I love the detail of Marge’s hair brushing the doorframe.
"Your friends can call you Hoju!"
😂😂 was hopping someone posted this comment!
Hoju sounds like a Korean name.
On a later épisode, homer helps to deliver a baby in an elevator, and the young mother calls her chile homer. homer befriends the baby and calls him hoju.
I love how the detectives admit they are actual detectives
Investigative reporters
The have to if asked, and they are reporters, not detectives, dumbass.
Who knows what would happen if they weren't asked 🤷
@@MrParkerman6 no they don't, theyre not under oath lol
@@VineFynn it's big brain time
This episode was written by Conan Obrien
Alan Rodrigo Apio Written*
I disagree. I say it was written by Conan O'Brien.
*Written
Thanks guys.
I love how Marge just stomps a mudhole into homer actually wanting another job.
i love how a tv show calls a tv the idiot box
I dont think Kyle Langley ever straight up lied: the monorail was quiet, and the track did hold up..
MCAT: monorail conductors aptitude test
I love the aggresion Homer shows towards the commercial
1:33 WTF is up with Milhouse?
Hi before a begin my comment, is anyone here an investigative reporter?
Only on "The Simpsons", would a villain ask if anyone's an investigative reporter. That's good writing.
No one in the classroom seems fazed that the Lanley Institute is noted by a badly written piece of paper taped on the door and in crayon or marker?
Mono = One
Rail = Rail
That was too funny! XD
Episode: Marge vs. the Monorail (Season 4, episode 12)
Release Date: January 14th, 1993
Theory: The writers of this episode got inspiration for the "Ho-Ju" joke from watching JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, as _Stardust Crusaders_ began airing that year.
This is the moment where Bart became HoJu
It is funny that the man on the television looks like Homer.
I thought Homer's lifelong dream was to appear on The Gong Show?
They got more gongs than the breakdancing robot that caught on fire...
His lifelong dream is to own the Dallas Cowboys.
0:04
I think there's another bastard child of Abe's out there.
Does whisky count as beer? Homer is the greatest poet since Emerson. Uhhh he was a poet rite?
0:32 i love homer's expression on that pic
Bart: You know, I used to think you were stuck in an emasculating, go-nowhere job.
Homer: [chuckles] Kids.
And that hidden camera gag, oh man. Perfect.
mcat is supposed to be The Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) is a computer-based standardized examination for prospective medical students in the United States, Australia and Canada. It is designed to assess problem solving, critical thinking, written analysis and knowledge of scientific concepts and principles. i think that is a joke as well
Of course it is - that's Conan O'Brien's sense of humor.
Dayem Gergory Perkins, you ARE a quick one.. *starts clapping sarcastically*
OP probably found out who the zodiac killer was in between deducing what's a joke
This is the articulate joke explanation we both wanted and needed.
Poor Phil Hartman.....like if You miss
Genius episode and love it!
How the guy on tv looks just like Homer.. lmao
Delicious "Beer" brand beer.
Young Homer in the commercial. Homer's flashback.
shut up
something like that happened in Mexico City, line 12 subway
Haha. Here in Seattle Area we have been scammed by the monorail too. LoL. The comedy just writes itself.
This single episode has more jokes in it than current season.
You've also watched this single episode more times than the number of episodes of the current season you've watched.
HOJU 😂
Homer 'HoJu' JoJo Simpson Jr.
MCAT: Monorail Conductor Aptitude Test.
That guy drank alcohol on a commercial. That's a no-no
Crazy to see how long ago this was. You could hide a camera on the end of your glasses nowadays. So long the golden age of consumer capitalism
That is one smart criminal if he's able to detect hidden cameras and private investigators trying to bust his scam.
P.S. Does 0:53 remind anyone of the Boeing scandal??!! : O
secretly that that slob on the ad was the first attempt at cloning homer, the second one escaped and now goes by the alias "Peter Griffin"
Worst investigative journalists ever.
Is there a chance the track could bend?
+Evil Otto Not at all, my Hindu friend!
Not on your life, my Hindu friend!
@Marmot J. Marmot
You had ONE job, dumbass!!!!!
@@MrParkerman6 Lol.
@@DaveOJ what about us braindead slobs?
Your lifelong dream was to runout on the field during a baseball game and you did it last year remember?
they wouldn't forfeit the pennant because of a fan running on the field.
Mono meaning one. Rail, meaning rail.
“Does whiskey count as beer?”
Does whiskey count as beer? lmao
I feel bad for Barney here.
I actually did get mono from riding a monorail
That question is bulshit I got mono from riding a monorail once and I swear add nothing to do with the person sitting next to me having mono.
"Heh heh. Kids."
Can I get Mono from riding the Monorail?
0:50 looks like the proto version of Odval from disenchantment
0:19 Actual institute may not match photo. ❌
