I always loved catching the intros, and seeing what would be written on Bart's chalkboard, as well as the different couch gags. My favourite was the can-can circus one!
There was a joke couch gag in a UK newspaper. The joke was that a politician called Jacob Rees-Mogg was caught lying down on the benches in the House of Commons and a cartoon saw him lying on the Simpsons couch
Underrated couch gag was the Hockey one where The Simpson won the Stanley Cup. That couch gag took place on the day the NHL All Star Game would've played if not for the lockout
My personal favorite gags were the one where they walk on hot coals to get to the couch, and the one where the come in as cavepeople, sink into a tar pit, and their skeletons end up in a museum. It's weird, but some of the couch gags were better then some of the episodes. One thing's for sure, The Simpsons has gone just about everywhere!
I like the one Disney animator Eric Goldberg did where the characters turn into Disney characters. Maggie turns into Minnie Mouse from the early black and white cartoons, Lisa turns into Cinderella, Marge turns into Snow White, Homer turns into Baloo from The Jungle Book and Bart ruins it all as Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey from Fantasia
Why didn't they ever think of making a couch gag of The Legend of Zelda games ? Homer as Link Marge as Zelda Bart as Skull Kid/Majora Lisa as Saria Maggie as Navi
While I haven't watched the Simpsons in a long time, these couch gags are awesome! I do have to say that I'm surprised that they didn't mention that one gag that was in the episode after the Simpsons Movie. Don't get me wrong, compared to the other gags, it's not that great, but I like it mainly for its continuity sake with showing the town rebuilding itself.
One of my favorites was where the Simpsons family runs to to the couch, only to find an identical Simpsons family already sitting there. Simplistically funny.
I love the Don Hertzfeldt couch gag, you can see that it was made from a man who loved The Simpsons but is now disappointed of what it became, so you see The Simpsons minimalised not only in graphics and animation, but also as content, as the show is going to broadcast more than it should have been, through stupid catchphrase and same storylines over and over again without an end
To me, it's the one where their heads turn into different types of food: Homer's turns into a salad (how ironic), Lisa's into soup, Marge's into spaghetti and meatballs, Bart's into a steak and Maggie's into a piece of candy. The Comic Book Guy eats them, and the napkin he wipes his mouth with is pictured with the family on the couch. I rewatched this couch gag so many times as kid, so that's why I remember it so vividly
NGL, Treehouse of Horror XXIV slapped hard AF, and I'm not just saying that since it's one of the few times I've seen a legit Phantom of the Paradise reference in TV or film.
Another one I like was from 2003 or 2004 when the family comes in and sits down on the couch. The music stops and Lisa breaks the fourth wall say something to the effect of, "What!?! Can't we just sit on the couch like normal sometimes?" Suddenly, a spear flies from off camera into Homer's chest and he yells, "D'OH!" And who can forget that response to President Bush's claim that families should model themselves less like The Simpsons and more like The Waltons as the whole family is watching him on TV. Bart then cracks, "Hey, We are just like The Waltons. We're waiting for an end to The Depression, too!"
I remember seeing the tik tok one without seeing the episode, then the end hit, and my wife and i were just like, "Awesome! Did not expect that to be a couch gag."
The one where they make fun of "The Munsters" - makes sense that the townspeople would kill almost all the alternate Simpons family versions present (except Lisa).
11:35-11:40 - Actually, I believe the couch gag from Rosebud, where the family ran in and found duplicates of themselves on the couch, was the most frequently used gag, as that gag was commonly used when the show aired in syndication.
I always thought the "Wacky Races" spoof couch gag from Season 24 was hilarious. It had all the characters in different souped up dragster couches with Grampa Abe coming out on top, laughing like Muttley after all the other couches crash.
The gunbarrel, the Gumby one, the Robot Chicken one I hope the Simpson's Movie sequel gets a theater gag that's like the evolution from one of the episodes. Homer makes it to the drive in theater just in time to meet with his family for the showing. I want a Vladimir terasov couch gag
What? The "Game of Thrones" opening didn't even get an honorable mention??? Of course, that just goes to show how awesome the rest are. I'm particularly happy that Bill Plympton made the list, and even more that he's on twice!
aside from the obvious 80s inspirations, La-Z Rider is also clearly referencing GTA Vice City with the artstyle and Flanders looking a lot like a take on Lance Vance I've never understood the appeal of Rick & Morty.... my favorite couch gags are easily the Robot Chicken one, the Adventure Time one, La-Z Rider, the Hobbit one, the Flintstones, Nelson pulling the couch away & doing his "ha-ha", the circus kick line and Guilermo Del Toro's one.
Missing the Ren & Stimpy parody couch gag before Treehouse of Horror 2015. and the Sgt. Pepper Beatles album cover couch gag where Homer turns his back to the camera, just like Paul McCartney of the back of the Pepper album cover.
Robo Chicken is perfect😁Rick and Morty too😁Couch Gag part one of six,circus,The Sampsans gag was on last night😀A Silly Simpsony great too😀La-Z Rider epic😁music,action😁Treehouse of HorrorXXIV. Excellent video😁

the evolution of homer
TBH, this should get a few more parts. Or at the very least, be longer
The EZ-Rider gag for two reasons: 1) Scarface (Push It to the Limit) and 2) the 80s look like it's playing straight from a VHS tape.
The one with Weird Al playing the accordion
Homer doing the James Bond gun barrell sequence.
I always loved catching the intros, and seeing what would be written on Bart's chalkboard, as well as the different couch gags. My favourite was the can-can circus one!
Same here!
Glad the Guillermo del Toro intro made it to a high place on the list. One of my favorites
Lazy rider hands down is the best couch gag
Stan Lee: There is nothing too short I can’t cameo.
I love the La-z Rider Couch Gag because it has the Put It to the Limit in it
All of The Simpsons couch gags are my favorite
A personal favourite of mine is Nelson pulling the couch back and making them fall.
"HAW HAW!" -Nelson Muntz
One of my favorites was the Ikea manual for a cøuch
Number 6 had to be the first longest intro before more seasons were made to try and beat it.
There was a joke couch gag in a UK newspaper. The joke was that a politician called Jacob Rees-Mogg was caught lying down on the benches in the House of Commons and a cartoon saw him lying on the Simpsons couch
Underrated couch gag was the Hockey one where The Simpson won the Stanley Cup. That couch gag took place on the day the NHL All Star Game would've played if not for the lockout
Aside from the treehouse of horror ones, the Robot Chicken crossover or the Transformers one is my favorite.
As longtime fans of ‘The Simpsons’, we 💛 it!
Good work, WatchMojo.
🙂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I wish they did another fan contest of submitting our own couch gag ideas from the end credits to Moonshine River episode
Im surprised the 1st couch gag didnt cracked the list with Bart flying and during the credit intro Bart dropped by LOL
My personal favorite gags were the one where they walk on hot coals to get to the couch, and the one where the come in as cavepeople, sink into a tar pit, and their skeletons end up in a museum. It's weird, but some of the couch gags were better then some of the episodes. One thing's for sure, The Simpsons has gone just about everywhere!
After all this time, I’m glad at least one aspect of the episodes can be consistently great and timely
The circus one was always my favourite
I like the one Disney animator Eric Goldberg did where the characters turn into Disney characters. Maggie turns into Minnie Mouse from the early black and white cartoons, Lisa turns into Cinderella, Marge turns into Snow White, Homer turns into Baloo from The Jungle Book and Bart ruins it all as Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey from Fantasia
I wish we had more disnified versions of the characters
Why didn't they ever think of making a couch gag of The Legend of Zelda games ?
Homer as Link
Marge as Zelda
Bart as Skull Kid/Majora
Lisa as Saria
Maggie as Navi
*No mention to the incredible Game of Thrones couch gag? I'm surprised.*
LOL 🤣 comedy gold 🎉I love the Simpsons ❤️
While I haven't watched the Simpsons in a long time, these couch gags are awesome! I do have to say that I'm surprised that they didn't mention that one gag that was in the episode after the Simpsons Movie. Don't get me wrong, compared to the other gags, it's not that great, but I like it mainly for its continuity sake with showing the town rebuilding itself.
Personally, my favorite future couch gag sequence would have to be the one from Holidays of Future Passed!
Actually, my favorite was when Nelson YOINKED the Couch from the Simpsons.
HA HA!!!
Not enough gags from the golden era...
Who knew sitting on a sofa could be so random?
😂 Loving the nostalgia, Simpsons forever! 🛋️
What a bunch of legendary couch gags
Do a video of the ending of every Muppet Show theme from Gonzo's trumpet & the balcony.
I think that Homer’s Evolution is the best Simpsons Couch gag while my Favourite was the Frozen gag.
One that was used on constant repeat was where the Simpsons were already on the couch while another set raced for it and the two groups look confused
One of my favorites was where the Simpsons family runs to to the couch, only to find an identical Simpsons family already sitting there.
Simplistically funny.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't the Simpsons on the couch in their Tracy Ullman designs?
I love the Don Hertzfeldt couch gag, you can see that it was made from a man who loved The Simpsons but is now disappointed of what it became, so you see The Simpsons minimalised not only in graphics and animation, but also as content, as the show is going to broadcast more than it should have been, through stupid catchphrase and same storylines over and over again without an end
I didn't know who Don Hertzfeldt was before he did his couch gag, but it is perfect. Dark, sombre and bittersweet, but I love it.
For the past 20+ years, the couch gags have been funnier than the actual episodes.
To me, it's the one where their heads turn into different types of food: Homer's turns into a salad (how ironic), Lisa's into soup, Marge's into spaghetti and meatballs, Bart's into a steak and Maggie's into a piece of candy. The Comic Book Guy eats them, and the napkin he wipes his mouth with is pictured with the family on the couch.
I rewatched this couch gag so many times as kid, so that's why I remember it so vividly
The Rick and Morty one was definitely my favorite.
My fav couch gag is when Nelson pulls the couch away from the family
The guest couch gags are always a welcome gift.
It’s funny (to me) the tik tok couch is one of my personal favs in an episode I absolutely hate
Ah Yes The Couch Running Gags From The Simpsons Animated Cartoon Series!!!!!
It's a shame that most fans watch the modern episodes only for the couch gag
The couch gags alone make me wanna binge the show
NGL, Treehouse of Horror XXIV slapped hard AF, and I'm not just saying that since it's one of the few times I've seen a legit Phantom of the Paradise reference in TV or film.
I love the Circus Line couch gag ❤🛋
honestly, the day of the couch couch gag should’ve been part of the treehouse of horror series
I agree with the Homer Evolution couch gag being the best! It also references Fantasia's the Rite of Spring, my all time favorite part.
With a lot of couch gags being snubbed, this proves that there are way too many awesome and iconic couch gags for a Top 20 + 5 HM list.
I’m guessing the couch gag even though changed through multiple episodes is a way to say that they are still alive in a way.
Legendary one of the best shows ever 🙌 ❤
I got tired of how often they used it, but I remember watching the Simpsons for the first time and being impressed by the circus opening.
GoT and the one where the townsfolk rush in.❤️
i like the one when the painting gets stolen and homer has to retrieve it...Robot Chicken Couch Gag Season 28 Ep. 14
What do you think the SImpsons kids would be like without Homer? Their biggest flaws comes from him
la--z rider and del toro's couch gags are two of the best ever
Simpsons tik tok song couch is my #1 favorite of all couch gags ever. Simpsons are the best icon of all time.
I loved these! I hate that they got rid of it!
Number 1 should have been the FIRST couch gag where the couch falls into the hole. The classic is always the best!
Couch gags and treehouse of horror are my favorite!!
Another one I like was from 2003 or 2004 when the family comes in and sits down on the couch. The music stops and Lisa breaks the fourth wall say something to the effect of, "What!?! Can't we just sit on the couch like normal sometimes?" Suddenly, a spear flies from off camera into Homer's chest and he yells, "D'OH!"

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! Amazing collection of the Simpsons' Couch Gags.
The Del Toro couch gag was the best .. glad it made top 3
My most favorite couch gag is the Rick and Morty cameo scene.
I'm glad that one of the couch gags from the Treehouse of Horror episodes made it on this list.
My favourite gag is when they're snorkelling in the carpet
I remember seeing the tik tok one without seeing the episode, then the end hit, and my wife and i were just like, "Awesome! Did not expect that to be a couch gag."
Bob's Burgers (2011-) I'm a Huge Fan Of the H. Jon Benjamin led Fox cartoon best Couch Gag IMAO
I love the Guillermo Del Toro one and La-Z Rider.
The Banksy one was the best
The storyboards for the Banksy couch gag showed the workers wearing those Asian style cone hats which would’ve been racist
The one where they make fun of "The Munsters" - makes sense that the townspeople would kill almost all the alternate Simpons family versions present (except Lisa).
11:35-11:40 - Actually, I believe the couch gag from Rosebud, where the family ran in and found duplicates of themselves on the couch, was the most frequently used gag, as that gag was commonly used when the show aired in syndication.
The LA-Z RIDER at nr 5 is my favorite couch gag ever 🥰.
I didn't know that Homer could be an awesome looking action guy 🤣.
I liked the Laz Rider one the best.
I always thought the "Wacky Races" spoof couch gag from Season 24 was hilarious. It had all the characters in different souped up dragster couches with Grampa Abe coming out on top, laughing like Muttley after all the other couches crash.
Calling it now, best one was the rick/morty one
Nope best one is when they come in and there is already another Simpsons family sitting there
@@billblaski9523spoilers there mate, i haven't seen it yet
The gunbarrel, the Gumby one, the Robot Chicken one
I hope the Simpson's Movie sequel gets a theater gag that's like the evolution from one of the episodes. Homer makes it to the drive in theater just in time to meet with his family for the showing.
I want a Vladimir terasov couch gag

I've never understood the appeal of Rick & Morty....
my favorite couch gags are easily the Robot Chicken one, the Adventure Time one, La-Z Rider, the Hobbit one, the Flintstones, Nelson pulling the couch away & doing his "ha-ha", the circus kick line and Guilermo Del Toro's one.
I'm glad the Guillermo Del Toro couch gag made the cut...but I'm disappointed that neither Serfsons nor the Game of Thrones parody made it
It's the Banksy one and its not even close. That song is so dark but beautiful
Missing the Ren & Stimpy parody couch gag before Treehouse of Horror 2015. and the Sgt. Pepper Beatles album cover couch gag where Homer turns his back to the camera, just like Paul McCartney of the back of the Pepper album cover.
Did you, know that there has been more than 10 episodes with a circus couch gag
Wonderful!
My favorite one from a recent season was when they had the artists behind Those Simpson Kids do the gag
Can you do top 10 worst things Marge and Lisa Simpson has done on the Simpsons?

I like the gag where they parody the Game of thrones intro
Anime simpsons,Circus line and Tik tok are my top 3 favorite couch gags

Aqua Teen Hunger Force x Simpsons crossover would go crazy as heck!
Love the creativity on these🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love your spam
I wonder if their Simpsons couch gag was among the memories Morty asked Rick to remove from his mind in Morty's Mindblowers.
Lord of the rings is my number one!
The Futurama "Simpsorama" couch gag and live action couch gag should have been here.
In my opinion you forgot 2 couchgag which deserve to be on the list: 1. the live action one and 2. the avatar couchgag😂
Sorry WatchMojo but "LA-Z RIDER" is absolutely #1 in my book!! 😂
Pixel art intro from Season 26 Ep 14 "My Fare Lady" should have at least gotten a mention 😵💫
