Relevance?

Why is it relevant that some fan grouping calling themselves the No Homers Club really liked this episode? Lots42 02:41, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image

Would it be possible if someone posted a more relevant picture for the infobox? The one currently there of Bart doesn't seem relevant enough. Andy120290 20:36, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did you mean the one of Homer? The one of Bart at the bottom has a relevance, it is illustrating one of the cultural references. --Simpsons fan 66 04:07, 23 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Minor points pre-GAC

Could use at least one more reference or 2 to expand Reception.Cirt (talk) 15:33, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Expand the Lead/Intro a bit more.Cirt (talk) 15:33, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Really nail down those image fair use rationales, by adding {{Non-free fair use rationale}}, in addition to what's currently at the image pages. Cirt (talk) 15:33, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers, Cirt (talk) 15:33, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It strikes me from reading the page that a lot of what's in the production section are cultural references, I mean the Johnny Quest, Nixon and Blofled things could all easily be moved into the section below. Gran² 14:11, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Successful good article nomination

I am glad to report that this article nomination for good article status has been promoted. This is how the article, as of February 12, 2008, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: Appears to be well written, although it may be wise to carry out Gran²'s recommendations.

2. Factually accurate?: Aritcle is well referenced.

3. Broad in coverage?: Appears to cover just about everything.

4. Neutral point of view?: No sign of any bias.

5. Article stability? No recent sign of edit wars

6. Images?: Images are given fair-use rationale

If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to Good article reassessment. Thank you to all of the editors who worked hard to bring it to this status, and congratulations.— ISD (talk) 14:39, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

3 stooges ref?

in this episode when bart is tested he acts like curly from the 3 stooges, saying"wise guy ayy", barking at inanimate objects, slaping his face, laughing like curly"nyuck nyuck nyuck" and various others (67.168.153.41 (talk) 20:16, 24 April 2011 (UTC))[reply]

the plot is terribly written

somebody please fix this — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.71.7.75 (talk) 04:51, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why? Details would be nice. CTF83! 11:24, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DWI class video

Is the video with Troy McLure that was shown in the traffic school scene a reference to an actual video? There was something similar in a Metalocalypse episode, so I thought there might be a famous "scared straight" traffic accident video that they were referencing. Attys (talk) 09:20, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ruth Powers is in the DWI class. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.116.101 (talk) 09:46, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Entertainment Weekly link

The last reference is to some Entertainment Weekly (EW) "Top 25 The Simpsons Episodes" article. The link is redirected to the EW start page. Google seems to have the article in its index (google for "site:ew.com "The family dynamic") but again one gets redirected to the EW start page.

I suggest remove the reference and also the sentence it supports.
