First, a few thoughts:

-Maggie's "daddy" was different sounding than it originally did, unless
they changed it for the syndicated version and used the original (I've
only seen the syndicated one)...why?
-Hooray for using the whole Mt. Splashmore scene (including the part cut
in syndication) from Brush with Greatness!

Two references to other clip shows:
They used a clip from "So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show" in
the throttling montage.
The shot of Selma, Grampa, and Patty in a future wedding recalls
"wedding after wedding after wedding" in 3F31.

Eh, no review...i had mixed feelings about it - not my favorite clip
show, but certain parts were well-executed. I also didn't really like
Kang and Kodos being in a canonical episode (though it did happen in
3G01).

Anyway, the list of episodes used for clips, in order of their use in
the show...there are a few I can't identify, and these are marked with
question marks. They are...
1 - one of Homer strangling Bart, looks like about season 4
2 - Homer choking Bart with the phone cord, then Bart hitting him back
with the phone - I should be able to remember this, and I think it's
from this season, but it eludes me.
3 - a plain old image which seems to be from a couch gag...bonus points
to whoever figures THAT one out!

So here we go...

that's a common phrase used to say when a show starts to go downhill...it
comes from a happy days episode where fonzie water-skied over a shark, and
many people called that the defining point where the show started to go
bad...there's a website about it for other shows at www.jumptheshark.com - the
simpsons haven't jumped, according to it, but some fans feel otherwise

I can't believe you have that much stuff in your brain..or that you were
even able to find it all in such a short time.

Amazing.

But..when you learn one new fact, does it crowd an old one out?

Yeah, some of them I had to search out on snpp or elsewhere...but I can
usually find what I'm looking for pretty quickly...and to answer your
question, sometimes I learn one thing and forget how to drive.

Several people have said that, but it sounded the same to me...maybe I'm
just crazy. And if they did redub it then why would they still list Liz
in the credits?
