A Simpsons Streak Comes To An End
 
If you saw tonight's Simpsons episode & paid attention, have we got an upset for you.

After 19 years, 5 months & 439 episodes, Bart Simpson was absent from that episode. Eat your heart out, Cal Ripken Jr.!

A few episodes ago, he had only one line. Guess he wanted to be like Ferb (Phineas & Ferb).

At least they wouldn't write him off the series ala Chuck Cunningham (Happy Days), Judy Winslow (Family Matters) or Brendan Lambert (Step By Step).

That leaves Homer, Marge & Lisa as the sole survivors who have been on every episode!

I think the Simpsons would make a great band. If they wanted to.

One line still counts as being in the show, doesn't it? Or do you mean he had one line in that show and THEN didn't show up for the next one?

Also, as a fan, your sig needs updating. It's Ex-Cel DUDE now, not teen.

He had one line on that episode where Moe dates that midget girl. Yes it does count, & he was on the following episode. 439 episodes, not 438.

Also, there have been a few episodes where they played as a band. One was in the Posiedon Adventure spoof & the other was when Bart has to stay 200 feet away from Lisa. Homer played the marimba on that episode, cool!

Here's a cool fanart of Homer in formal wear playing the vibes!

Homer would so be playing the tympani, man. I mean, just take a look at the character, it will be obvious.

Careful what you say,

He-Man Homer rocks on tympani!

Not to insinuate anything, but is there a reason why you seem to be obsessed with fictional strip-clubs and lightly clothed cartoon characters?

Tuxedo Moroboshi 05-16-2009 08:53 PM
Hmmm... this is pretty weird for me. Especially when you stop to consider that, from conception, Bart is the main character. I know in the past decade Homer has pretty much absorbed himself into that role, but as someone who's been there since the beginning, this really does feel quite odd.
