This episode is definitely the most favorite episode from The Simpsons that I’ve watched since it tackled a character that I absolutely fascinated about, Mr. Burns. At the beginning of the episode, we saw Mr. Burns’ character a lot as he were dreaming about his past where he left his life of poverty (and his beloved bear, BoBo) to go off and live the life of a luxury with a heartless millionaire. The first scene of him agrees to leave his own family without any hesitation and choose to live with…

Homer as talking parrot and unintentional Descartes What we are seeing in the example of Homer is his ability to retain ideas about what a work of art is with an inability to discern the difference between the idea of the work of art and the failed DIY BBQ pit project. Essentially, instead of creating works of art after the BBQ pit incident, Homer parrots the idea of art by recreating similar conditions to that of the BBQ pit, which by association in homer’s mind is no longer a DIY project but…

To begin, McMahon argument that The Simpsons can “educate on what it teaches” (215) in this episode of The Simpsons “Lisa on Ice” occurs with stereotypes on the show. For, example when the school bullies asked Bart “Nice PJs, Simpson. Did your mommy buy 'em for ya?” (Scully, 1994) and Bart’s response was “Of course she did. Who else would have?” (Scully, 1994) This conforms to the stereotype that mothers do most of the shopping in the house. That consist of buying clothes, food etc. According…

I remember being nine years of age and watching all kinds of TV shows. I didn’t quite understand them all, but I sat there and watched them because they entertained my older brother and parents. I specifically remember watching the show South Park. “Oh how dumb,” I would say to my self and I could not understand how adults could find these mean animated characters so funny. At some point it even bothered me and I did not find the show funny but rather insulting. I would also watch The Simpsons…

We’ve all seen these adult animated sitcoms, or at least heard about them. We watch these shows and grow up with them, they mold our personalities and change our perspective in life through the years. So when you think of the legends in this category you need look no further than Matt Groening’s classic The Simpsons, or the more recent twist Family Guy created by Seth Macfarlane. The Simpsons and Family Guy are American comical cartoons that share many similarities and differences. Although the…

The character I choose is Tigger from Winnie the Pooh, with the disorder ADHD. Tigger is a very active/energetic character he gets excited about everything. He is an enthusiastic character that shows it anytime and to anyone he wants no matter if they want to see it or hear it. He is one of a kind for all the things he can do, like the song said to introduce him in the show. The diagnostic criteria for ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) in the DSM-5 include (A) a persistent pattern…

These days I find myself spending an increasing amount of leisure time on my computer, and my various activities range from internet gaming to browsing through social media website and forums, to shopping and reading current events. Entertainment is only clicks away on the internet, but before the rise of the World Wide Web, TV use to be the only avenue of entertainment. The family didn’t always scatter after dinner to make that mad dash toward their computer screens, but rather, we’d use to…

The Simpsons are often looked at as simply a comedy show but in reality the television program is so much more. The Simpsons have been around since 1989 and from the beginning of it’s conception the writers have been commenting on the world around them. The program started a revolution in the television world and has sparked many copy cat shows. The show can be considered one of the greatest show in the history of television. This not simply because it creates laughs on the surface but under the…
