It's pretty lame that a bunch of college kids have wittled down the most successful show of the 90s to a meme based on one scene. They're not even fans of the show.
@@kasel1979krettnachDepends on how much the character is valued. People can be replaced here if an actor passes, but nobody could replace Phil so his character died with him out of respect
Lionel Hutz is willing to share his last drops of scotch with potential clients. To this he signals he is not an alcoholic and a true professional and beacon of justice.
This happens when you replace great writers with others not up to their standards. And i'll never understand why Matt Groening did that...he tarnished the Simpsons legacy.
@@lupodelupis3672The early Simpsons also had a large cast of writers that dwindled as the show went on, I think that plays a very important role in the drop in quality.
Even though the writing was better back then, I don't think it wasn't just that either. He's voice delivery was hilarious with every line. It made me laugh so much.
"This verdict is written on a cocktail napkin, and it still says guilty, and guilty is spelled wrong" ROFL. Ah old Simpsons. 3 humor hits in the space of a few second.
I can’t believe they cut off the “no further questions” from the scene with Apu’s cross-examination. It’s one of the most brilliant visual gags I’ve ever seen.
I know it's meant to be a joke but David Crosby being Lionel's sponsor and talking him down from abusing alcohol and being so worried by his call that he attends his trial the next day for support is incredibly wholesome
He was voiced by Phil Hartman - a comedian from Saturday Night Live. His wife murdered him in 1998. Phil Hartman also voiced Actor Troy McLure on the Simpsons and a few occasional one-time appearances like Lyle Lanley who sold Springfield the monorail.
I wonder if Lionel Hutz lost his Real Estate Business as Cookie Kwan had taken over... I wouldn't be surprised that Lionel Hutz had fled Springfield and taken his new identity as Miguel Sanchez to find business elsewhere like Capital City or Shelbyville.
Well your honor we have a lot of conjecture and hearsay those are "kinds of evidence" An amazing line that is so much more hilarious than it initially sounds
Futurama is great in its own right, but it's the definition of diminishing returns: the movies and Comedy Central episodes weren't completely up to snuff with the FOX seasons, and the Hulu run so far hasn't convinced me it should've came back after Meanwhile say what you will about later Simpsons, but i feel it'll always have the slight upper hand due to the amount of time it spent being consistently amazing: 8-12 seasons (depending on who you ask) of comedy gold vs. the 4 Futurama has
"Look at him, he's wearing a belt!" always gets me 😂 Of course we know the only belt that Lionel Hutz, our favourite law-taljing-guy, occasionally uses is a belt of scotch. God, how I miss Phil Hartman. 😞
That bit is one of the best three-liners in the history of the English language. Kinda is repeatedly, dog is son, and we hear the actual sentence in our heads.
Lionel Hutz is one of the main reasons i became a law talking guy.
You mean lawyer.

"I've argued in front of every judge in the state, often as a lawyer"
LMAO, that's probably the funniest line.
Despite Lionel Hutz being a shady and unsuccessful lawyer, he seemed to thrive in Real Estate. He was selling houses and was head of the local office.
That’s because there’s the truth…and the truth

No.

AMAZING WRITING!!😂😂😂
I remember taking issue with that title when I heard it as a child
@@hugoclarke3284 me too.

One of, if not The, greatest character in that show.

"What's that? You want me to drink you?"
Lionel Hutz; the original Saul Goodman.
OMG, my coworker just pointed this out 😂
I came here looking for someone saying that😂
but the difference, Saul usually wins
Saul is sly but Lionel is flat out stupid
He is more like matlock lol jk.

Better cut down there smokey
Him showing up amd saying "Mr simpson I was just going through your gargabe ..." while having this professional attire killed me 😂
Phil Hartman's characters were symbolic of the classic era of The Simspons.
No truer words were spoken
Absolutely 👌🏼
He helped elevate 3 shows to their best: Simpsons, Newsradio, and SNL
ong. part of it died wit him 😢😢😢
Even though the writing was better back then, I don't think it wasn't just that either. He's voice delivery was hilarious with every line. It made me laugh so much.

"Right"
Such formidable delivery.
You dont want a criminal lawyer. You want a CRIMINAL lawyer
The AA thing is so true. David Crosby was a great sponsor.
Thanks for that.

"This verdict is written on a cocktail napkin, and it still says guilty, and guilty is spelled wrong" ROFL. Ah old Simpsons. 3 humor hits in the space of a few second.
Jimmy McGill no longer exists. Say hello to Saul Goodman!
Great Aunt Gladys in Hutz's voice: to my executor Lionel Hutz I leave 50,000$
Marge: MISTER HUTZ!
You’d be surprised how often that works, you really would
I was in tears 😂😂😂
Aunt Gladys was a legend.
I don't drink but for some reason "Care to join me in a belt of scotch?" is so relatable.
I'm a recovering alcoholic and it is painfully relatable. Still hilarious though.
@@supraguy4694 Just remember that I love you.
I didn’t realize it until years later, but the show essentially ended when Phil was taken. He was a master.
Have to agree
Yes
He wasn't taken... he was MURDERED!!! :( :( :(
Yup. The Simpsons died with Phil.
@@OnigirliYes. His murderer took him from us.
The first 9 seasons are some of the greatest TV ever made !
Simpsons wasnt the same when lionel hutz and troy McClure weren't in it anymore
Definitely wasn't
Icons of crappy but entertaining people
"can you imagine a world without lawyers?" shudder. That imagine lives in my mind palace.
You mean memory?
Yes it's called Back to the Future Part 2.
Right! That’s why you’re the judge and I’m the…comment-posting guy.
*scoffs* Look at him, he's wearing a belt!
That’s Hollywood for you
I can’t believe they cut off the “no further questions” from the scene with Apu’s cross-examination. It’s one of the most brilliant visual gags I’ve ever seen.
So sad we lost him ... imagine all the shows and movies he would still be doing now ... 😢
He was tapped to be Zapp Brannigan in Futurama before his death. Billy West said his rendition was an homage to Hartman.
@codyaucoin3412 yes you can clearly see that character was written for him ... again so sad 😞
RIP Hartman. His voice was legendary. And his comedy was too
1:34 You’d be surprised how often that works
I think this is my brothers current Lawyer .
Don't you mean your brother's current law... talking guy?
😂😂😂😂😂your brother is screwed
Without Lionel Hutz I wouldn't have become the shyster I am today.
"How does a little girl like you know a big word like that?"
I think about that word when I walk down the stairs in the morning.
better cut down there, Smokey. BAHAHHAA
2:33 ~ .. Drug Dealeeeerrr... keeper awayeeerrrr 💀
Just noticed the nearly empty slurp sound from the drink he said was nearly full 3:40
Great spot!
he'll be back
They’re all crooks, lawyers that is
I know it's meant to be a joke but David Crosby being Lionel's sponsor and talking him down from abusing alcohol and being so worried by his call that he attends his trial the next day for support is incredibly wholesome
One of the best characters in the simpsons
I wonder what more they would have done with this character, along with Troy Mcclure if Phil Hartman was still around.
Or Zapp Brannigan
I imagine we would have gotten a lot less of Gil if Hutz remained.
He was voiced by Phil Hartman - a comedian from Saturday Night Live. His wife murdered him in 1998. Phil Hartman also voiced Actor Troy McLure on the Simpsons and a few occasional one-time appearances like Lyle Lanley who sold Springfield the monorail.
Nice
Imagine the breaking bad and better call saul jokes they could have done
I always forget how great a character Lionel Hutz was. RIP Phil Hartman
“The sound wasn’t on but I think I got the gist of it”😭
3:00 The fact that Homer Simpson, one of the biggest alcoholics in media, is concerned about Hutz drinking scotch before 9, says something
I wonder if Lionel Hutz lost his Real Estate Business as Cookie Kwan had taken over...
I wouldn't be surprised that Lionel Hutz had fled Springfield and taken his new identity as Miguel Sanchez to find business elsewhere like Capital City or Shelbyville.
He didn't stay off the west side
Imagine a world without Lionel Hutz
I can't imagine that!
"and drug dealerrrr-- keeper-awayer!"
Laughing for 6 minutes straight. Lionel Hutz is amazing 🤣
If you pause at 1:06 at the right time, you can see the house Marge described as being on fire, isn’t on fire, lol
Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder
I want to buy your eyes.
It's the same picture of the first house he shown lol
“A contract is a document that is unbreakable by..UNBREAKABLE! Excuse me a minute” 🏃
the drawer full of smoking monkeys is probably my favourite simpsons moment
Combs his hair with a fork 😂and then puts it In his pocket
RIP Phil Hartman aka Lionel Hutz too funny to be in heaven.... As an old soul person myself, he was HELLA hilarious especially for a lawyer 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
not far off from reality.
I argued in front of every judge in the state sometimes as a lawyer 😂
If you ask me what peak Simpsons was it was definitely the seasons when the world still had Phil Hartman
Absolutely.
True. He was amazing.
"Yeah but I havnt slept in days." is how I respond to any "its only X time" next to the ol reliable "it's high noon somewhere".
Phil was the best! He is missed greatly. Such a talent
3:36
I have argued with judges,
often as a lawyer
The most blatant case of false advertising since his case against the film The Neverending Story.
After watching both Hutz and McClure clips I can see what Groening wanted Phil to be Zapp Brannigan
Well your honor we have a lot of conjecture and hearsay those are "kinds of evidence" An amazing line that is so much more hilarious than it initially sounds
I love him so much that I made my own “Belt of Scotch” hats
The Simpsons won't go off the air until all the voice actors die.
I like that Apu apparently has perfect recall.
"Hey this isn't the YMCA."
5:28 - I love that the judge says "spelled wrong" rather than "misspelled". Although I suppose both are acceptable.
The first clip has always been my favorite since the first time I laughed my ass off at it
I never appreciated this character in particular until this video
I saw this guy in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.
Who decided he could cross city lines from Springfield to Shelbyville anyway?!
"If there's one thing America needs, it's more lawyers."
Phil used the perfect tone in his voice.
Excuse me..proceeds to walk then runs 😂
"You are wearing: a red and white striped club tie in a Half Windsor knot."
Like if you think Velma is better than Simpsons >>
Yes, but only after the 2000.
it gets better at a point because Futurama wasn't overdone and beaten to death by Fox
Futurama is great in its own right, but it's the definition of diminishing returns: the movies and Comedy Central episodes weren't completely up to snuff with the FOX seasons, and the Hulu run so far hasn't convinced me it should've came back after Meanwhile
say what you will about later Simpsons, but i feel it'll always have the slight upper hand due to the amount of time it spent being consistently amazing: 8-12 seasons (depending on who you ask) of comedy gold vs. the 4 Futurama has
It’s nothing to original Simpsons
Why is this comment on this video?
R.I.P. Phil Hartman (1948-1998)
Phil Hartman was a national treasure that I miss anytime I watch these old episodes
5:22 gets me every time. Great climax 😂
5:35 gets me 😂
"Pipe down in there Hutz!"
3:03 - "Oh... hello (nervous laughter)🙂." - L. Hutz
Ahhh, Hutz setting the dumpster afire was cut out.😕😢
"Look at him, he's wearing a belt!" always gets me 😂
Of course we know the only belt that Lionel Hutz, our favourite law-taljing-guy, occasionally uses is a belt of scotch.
God, how I miss Phil Hartman. 😞
"I'll do any surgery for $39.95"
...Dr. Nick Rivera
"Mr Hutz, do you realise you're not wearing any pants?"
"I... arrghhh"
This certainly is some of the best.
because of lionel hutz, i'm thinking of going to law talking school
"Forget about that one, that's the murder house."
Missing a few good ones including the one where he mentions false advertisement on the book, "the neverending story"
Hank Azaria and Phil Hartman were The Simpson’s ❤
Afrika Bambaataa for your intro?
Zapp and Roger as your outro?
Respect!!
"The day the violence died" made the best use of Lionel in my opinion
ONLY a bartender understands the "Frank Wallbanger case of 78'"
"Say hello to Miguel Sanchez."
Simpsons predicted George Santos!
I love Phil Hartman ❤

Just take it one day at a time and know that I love you
