#Famous barney simpsons quotes free#

It's certainly one of the seasons I've watched the most, airing as it did at the perfect nexus of the time in which I was recording Simpsons episodes on tape while also having the free time to go back and watch them. We're well into the golden age of the show at this point, and this could quite well be my favorite season of the series. Yoko: I'd like a single plum floating in perfume, served in a man's hat.Īnd with that, season five begins. Homer: Well, anyway, we were all getting tired of. Lisa: What about Bob Hope? He's been consistently popular for over fifty years. We were about to learn an iron law of show business: what goes up must come down.

Homer: All the time! That was the title of our second album. Lisa: I can't believe you're not still popular.īart: What'd you do? Screw up like the Beatles and say you were bigger than Jesus? Homer: C'mon, honey! It'll only be until we finish our tour of Sweden. Homer: Well, if I explain it to Marge that way, I'm sure she'll understand.

You see, a lot of women are going to want to have sex with you, and, er, we want them to think they can. Well, I would prefer if we kept your marriage a secret. I'll be the same loving father I've always been. Homer: Yeah, but I'm not gonna let it change our lives. Man: I doubt my son or daughter is that stupid.

Marge: Your teenage son or daughter will think this wishbone necklace is really cool! Like many of the flashback episodes, it suggests continuity questions the show really isn't concerned with, such as why, before and after this episode, little reference is made by any members of the Be Sharps to each other about their past together (say, for example, when Skinner was dating Patty in season two or when Apu moves in with the Simpsons later this season). This is the first flashback episode to not center on a significant Simpson family moment, like Homer and Marge's wedding or Lisa's first word. This episode was produced as part of season four, and was chosen to air as the season premiere because of the involvement of Harrison. Principal Skinner tries on a prison mask from his time in 'Nam, with the prisoner number 24601, which was Jean Valjean's number in Les Miserables (and was previously used as Sideshow Bob's prisoner number in season two's 'Black Widower').

The reunion of the Be Sharps for an impromptu concert atop Moe's is a reference to the Beatles doing a similar impromptu concert on the roof of the Apple Corps building in 1969, and each of the Be Sharps is dressed in that scene to resemble the attire worn by each of the Beatles. David Crosby also guest stars, as himself, his second appearance on the show (following last season's 'Marge in Chains'). This episode parodies the rise and fall of the Beatles, and George Harrison guest stars as himself, the second Beatle to do so (after Ringo Starr in season two). While at the Springfield swap meet, Bart discovers an old record with Homer on the cover. Homer reminisces about his time in a world famous barbershop quartet alongside Barney, Apu and Principal Skinner.
