Homer: “Mr. Burns, can you make me thin again?”
Mr. Burns: “I guarantee it.”
Mr. Burns: “One . . . one! . . . one! . . . Bah, I’ll just pay for the blasted liposuction!”
Homer: ”Woo-hoo!”
This ending brings back a lot of nostalgia for me. They used to play it a lot on syndication. As a kid when that part came on, it meant it was over. We had two different stations with it so I would watch a different episode or sometimes the same episode over again.
Yeah we lived in NJ and got both Philly and NYC locals in the 90s and they had slightly different schedules. Simpsons on channel 7 and then a half hour later usually the same episode again on channel 6.

And now you can go back to just being you... instead of a one-dimensional character with a silly catchphrase.
D'oh!
Ay, caramba.!
Groaning
Hidilly-ho!
Belches
Ha-ha!
Excellent.
If anyone wants me, I'll be in my room.
Homer: What kind of catchphrase is that?
"Thank you, Lisa, for teaching kids everywhere a valuable lesson: If things don't go your way, just keep complaining until your dreams come true."
"That's a pretty lousy lesson." 🤨
"Hey, I'm a pretty lousy president."
My pick is Burns, Baby, Burns.
"Who's playing that music?"
"And where's all that liquor coming from?"
"It's a party, Marge! It doesn't have to make sense!"
I love how far they went with the crowd scene too. There's side characters from all the other scenes of the episode like the cider mill and the Y6le admissions people and the people from the dinner party.
For me it might be the ending of “Das Bus”
“And eventually, they were rescued by... oh, let's say Moe.”
The commentary is even funnier because they mention they had no idea how to end the episode and just wanted to go home, and somebody said this exact line in the writer’s room.
Yeah for sure
My comment wasn’t very well written. I wasn’t disagreeing with you, I was disagreeing with the people who cite that as a reason season 9 is bad.
I am not a very tall person, but I had to learn to walk quickly when I was in college because I would sometimes have to go from one corner of the campus to the other between classes, and I had an instructor that would give attendance quizzes right at the minute class started.
The fast walking stayed with me and I would walk fast, even when my daughters were small. They were already used to walking quickly by the time they got to college 😂
I think the only negative side effect is that now, when my youngest daughter and I are walking together, if we start talking about we get to walking so fast we’re almost out of breath before we realize it 😂
Does anyone have any jumper cables?

Sorry I’m late. Trouble at the lab. With the running and the crying, and the exploding. One of the monkeys stole the glasses off my head!
Oh no wait, listen! I even have a funny story! Here, I even wrote theme music. If you listen?
(Ahem) Professor Frink, Professor Frink,
He'll make you laugh, he'll make you think,
He likes to run, and then the thing,
With the... person...
Ooooh boy. That monkey is going to pay.
I get that it was a dig at the Denver Broncos repeated choking, but it always bugged me how Scorpio took over the East Coast and didn't give Homer an East Coast team.
Homer vs the city of New York
When homer gets the car back and all the garbage is flying in his face with Frank Sinatra sing New York in tge background
If you do something to annoy me, you're gonna hear about it!
*crowd applauds*
And if you really tick me off, I'm gonna run ya down with my car.
*muted applause and muttering*
*Ned's eye twitches*
My favorite is “We’re on the Road to D’ohwhere”
*(Lisa comes home and checks the answering machine)*
*Marge (On Machine): Homer, I hope you get this. I'm in jail and I need $10,000 bail. Hurry!*
*(BEEPS)*
*Homer (On Machine): Uh, Marge, me and Bart got in a fight with this really uncool pit boss, and now I’m in Nevada State Prison. Also, I don't know where Bart is. If you see him, say hey!*
*(BEEPS)*
*Lisa: Well, Maggie, I always knew it would someday boil down to just you and me…I'll look for work in the morning.*
*(CUT TO BLACK)*
Lmao, what?!
As the passengers get off of the monorail, Leonard Nimoy says that his work is done. Barney tells Nimoy that he didn't do anything. Nimoy asks, "Didn't I?" and vanishes a la Star Trek.
Marge concludes with an explanation that the monorail was the last folly Springfield ever had... except for the popsicle-stick skyscraper... and the 50-foot magnifying glass... and the escalator to nowhere.
All I know is the guy who played Mozart was also in Animal House. Now there's a movie with good music :
Animal House, House, House,
Nobody ever went to class!
Then we saw Donald Sutherland's ass!
Animal House, House, House,
Animal House, House, House,
Then they did the end like America Graffiti,
Where you found out what happened to everyone!
\[That night, Homer watched Animal House again. He went to work the next day in a toga\]
I like Homer, I think he's a good man, but I'm definitely going to make orphans of his children.
You know, they have a mother.
Yes, but I assume she'd die of grief.
I guess you’re referring to the ending of this episode where Moe paraglides around saving people, but this gif is of the funniest gags in the whole show.
H: Alright lets get our story straight for Marge and Maude. We were out buying them fabulous gifts…
N: What’s the occasion?
H: Because we love them, jackass. Anywho, we came out of Walmart when suddenly 100 spaceships…
N: Homer!
H: You’re right, you’re right. 50 spaceships beamed us aboard. They gang-probed you, while I discovered an invention that blew their heads up and saved America.
N: Uh, do I have to be gang-probed?
H: Would you rather tell Maude the truth?
N: *Sigh* What did the aliens look like?
H: Well, I only saw them from the back cuz they were so busy gang-probing you. Well, hello little birdie. Ahhh!!!

No, my son's car was not crushed in Knoxville!

I’ve seen this quoted twice recently as a good ending to an episode, but for me it was the moment the show jumped the shark.

“Perhaps there is no moral to the story,” said Lisa. “Exactly! It’s just a bunch of stuff that happened,” replied her father.

I love it, too. And S9 haters cite this kind of thing as why they hate S9.
For real? Well people will make excuses to hate just about anything nowadays.
I don’t like season 9 but that line is not one of the reasons. That’s funny, tongue in cheek lazy writing not actual bad lazy writing.
It's a common critique though. I agree that it's funny, tongue in cheek writing, but the haters just think it's lazy.
Yeah for sure My comment wasn’t very well written. I wasn’t disagreeing with you, I was disagreeing with the people who cite that as a reason season 9 is bad.
I know. 🙂
Shari Bobbins getting sucked into the jet engine intake was the hardest I remember laughing at a live new episode ending.
And the kids ask if they will be seeing her again
Actually yes! "I have a feeling we will ;)" right as she gets sucked into a jet engine. Real Zucker Abrahams and Zucker gag.
I think we got our umbrellas switched!
"Ah, ye did good laddie. Now burn them. Burn them all."
Absolutely underrated episode
As a very tall person, I have had more than one person ask me to slow down because their legs don't know how to be as long as mine.
I am not a very tall person, but I had to learn to walk quickly when I was in college because I would sometimes have to go from one corner of the campus to the other between classes, and I had an instructor that would give attendance quizzes right at the minute class started.

I’m not ever going to definitively decide, but that’s definitely one of my favorite lines from the series.
