Enter Planet Simpson
Topic: the Simpsons

"Cartoons are just stupid drawings that give you a cheap laugh." -- Homer Simpson

"They're just a bunch of hilarious stuff you
know, like people getting hurt and stuff, stuff like that." -- Bart Simpson


For fans who enjoy reading about their favorite TV show, there's a new treat in the local bookstore. The book, entitled "Planet Simpson: How a Cartoon Masterpiece Documented an Era and Defined a Generation", is an accessible cultural analysis of The Simpsons, its inside stories and the world it reflects.

Ayatolla Assa-holla
Topic: the Simpsons

Marge and Homer go through old things in the attic in preparation for the big sale.

Marge: Can we get rid of this Ayatollah T-shirt [it says: "Ayatolla Assaholla"]? Khomeini died years ago.

Homer: But, Marge! It works on any Ayatollah: Ayatollah Nakhbadeh, Ayatollah Zahedi... even as we speak, Ayatollah Razmada and his cadre of fanatics are consolidating their power.

from The Simpsons, "Two Bad Neighbors" (3F09)
airdate: 14-Jan-96
