I *told* my mother, in 2005, that she should have let me keep my late father's 1988 Camry -- it was an amazing car (got 40mg highway). Thanks for the validation!
Thank you thank you thank you. I'm thrilled to see these eps again -- and the commercials are like electrical jolts through my body (they instantly transport me to where I was living, what I was doing -- it's bizarre). And, RIP, brilliant Sam Simon. Thanks again, best wishes, and I hope you receive even more than you share.
I like it that the Burger King selling argument is that McDonald's will hate them and the diet Coke argument is people switch to them from Pepsi. I guess there are other laws and agreements nowadays that hides other brands. Making the dish soap company say they are better compared to the second highest selling dish soap company etc.
I remember this show when I was a kid, did Tracey Ullman invent "The Simpsons"? I remember seeing skits of them on the show, and then when Tracey Ullman Show went off the air, that is when The Simpsons started.
Bijinius Cross -- I respectfully disagree with the "stereotype" answer. I think that something happened off-camera: maybe the bird flew directly to its trainer's perch and the audience was delighted by how well-trained it was; or maybe the bird *didn't* obey its trainer but instead flew off course, hence the laughter; or maybe the bird pooped as it flew off; or something else that we'll never know.

No, teddy bears that are sitting up in bed, with rounded bellies under a blanket and arms by their sides. When the bears are upside-down, all of those curves look like a candelabrum (not a menorah -- too few branches). But they're definitely teddy bears -- go full-screen, adjust the quality to 480p, and freeze it at 3m5s.
Bubba bitty: Wow ok let's see if I can help here, since I'm ancient and was actually born before the 80s & 90s occurred. This show premiered the Simpsons as a before commercial break cartoon short from 1988 to 1990 "before" it became Fox's first animated tv show in the fall of 1990.
I don't know what's better--the show or the amazing retro commercials!
The show!
the commercials this show sucked worse then early simpsons
They should release this on DVD
All I can say is, TIM CURRY!
omg I'm still driving the 80's Toyota Corolla..it's 2017!!!!

Great episode! This made my day complete upon finding this! It features one of my favorite actors, TIm Curry. And a Simpsons short! :)
This show is brilliant, but that theme song was a knockout!!
Thank you SO much for posting these! I have not seen them since they originally aired and they bring back such good memories =^)
Agreed - my thoughts exactly. And we get the 80's commercials too - including one for the *premier* of COPS!
Tim Curry Lol I do the Rock. What a great show.
These Commercials are hilarious.
Tim is absolutely brilliant in this :'DDD
This is Episode #47 from Season 3 (February 26th, 1989)
Well look who it is. Tim curry
I so remember that studio Line gel commercial

Loved her in the 80s

I don't suppose you have anymore of the show? I have been trying to find the original series (not her new one) and have not had any luck.
13:38 Now you can get what you've always wanted for only 20 f***s at American
She has a new show now! Any idea how to get it?
Tim curry looks so different and young. And not bad looking :O
14:31 Apu looks a bit different
Who’s playing the piano?

If you can use YT, you can use wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simpsons
15:25 - um, there's a bird... then they shoo the bird... and the audience apparently finds this *hilarious.* what am i missing??
I think the audience was laughing at the stereotype of two Italian sounding men doing a demeaning job like window washing.

OMG Was that the first ever Simpsons ever?
Sonny Skye It most certainly was! They made their TV debut as a series of shorts on the show.
Nope. They debuted in April of 1987
Bingggg
Do his pajamas have menorahs on them?

How are the Simpsons in his if it's 1989? The Simpsons came out in 1990!
The Simpsons debuted on television in 1987 in the form of shots on The Tracey Ullman show. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simpsons_shorts
The great thing about the internet is you can research questions like this yourself.
The series came out Christmas of 1989.

The Simpson's originally started as little shorts in 1989 which later became an actual show
Just not funny.
superslim121 It was to really old people like me.
