That episode literally aired on the day I was born.
>>84136424
>There will be people posting things other than "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire"
Darn kids.
>>84136424
I was born in the summer of 93 so the closest for me was Homer's Barbershop Quartet.
I never actually saw that one.
Born in 88, threads no good to me
>>84136443
You and I share an episode, Friend.
>In the episode, Homer gets an illegal cable hook-up. Despite the family's enjoyment of the new channels, Lisa becomes suspicious that they are stealing cable. Her suspicions are confirmed by Reverend Lovejoy and she protests by no longer watching television.
>it's Lisa episode
No wonder why my life is shit as fuck.
>>84136424
I was born in '88 so I guess the pilot
Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood, the day I was born.
I don't recall this episode.
Last episode of Season 1, "Some Enchanted Evening" aired 16 days before my birthday. It was the first one produced and the animation looks like shit.
>Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie
Aired when I was 5 days old. I'd forgotten all about this episode. I've seen it a long time ago. Does anyone remember if it was good?
I'm gonna go watch it now.
equidistant between Some Enchanted Evening and Bart Gets an F
gonna say meh to the first, and pretty good to the latter
It was fine. If I was born a week earlier, it would've beenLisa Vegetarian
>>84136500
It's a great crash course on Beatles history.
Ow, fuck, I'm old.
>Lisa's Substitute
eh, it was pretty decent
I'll do you one better, here's the commercials that aired with the episode that aired closest to my birthday.

Oh Christ, that was 21 years ago.
May 1992 - Bart's Friend Falls in Love
I'm actually a June baby but nothing came out that month. I've never seen this episode, reviews seem to be positive but it's not a classic I guess. Looks like it's about Milhouse's failed attempt at a love life.
Everything about this episode seems to fit me pretty well. That's depressing. Maybe I'll give it a watch.
Shit a thread like this can exist now and I can't even call you underage
I'm just old... Wow I'm going to die in like a few more decades that sucks..
>>84136424
literally before the first one that aired, how the fuck old are yall
One of my earliest memories is almost dying from laughing at the slingshot bunny in the episode where Homer gets a shitty RV and they get stranded in the woods.
I am fine with this.
>Bart Gets An F
Pretty solid episode
The first one is closest to my birthday.
I was born when there were no Simpsons yet.
>>84137053

>Find the Simpsons episode that aired closest to your birthday.
I'm older than the show. Are you saying you want the episode closest to the day I was born, in which case it'd be the pilot (or I suppose the first Tracy Ullman short if you want to get technical) or just the first one that aired on the same date, of whatever closest year post-starting?
![latest[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/rIbypB0.jpg "latest[1].jpg")
I was nearly five years old
>>84137027
>Double Quarter Pounder

I think the first episode I consciously remember seeing on TV was Homer and Apu.
>>84136424
I was born like 4 years before they premiered. Fuck your thread.
>>84136443
You sound like the youngling, kid.
There are adults here younger than The Simpsons.
There are people in this thread who aren't intimately familiar with classic Simpsons episodes.
Mmmyep. Started after I was born.
I used to be with "it". Then they changed what "it" was...
Now what I'm with isn't "it", and what's it is weird and scary.
And it'll happen to you!
February 1988 "The Pagans".
It's fucking weird but still better than any post 2000 episode.
>inb4 a Scully episode gets posted
Nopenopenope.
"Home Hypnotism" a Tracey Ullman short aired February 19th 1989 the day after I was born.
Pretty disposable as far as a short goes, doubt this one was the one that put the fire under asses to get the Simpsons a series.
>>84136877
You should watch it. It's one of the highlights of Season 3.
>GIVE ME SEVEN HUNDRED KRUSTY BURGERS
>>84137188
Say, it's funny 'cos I know someone who was born on the day the 138th Episode Spectacular aired (12/3/95) and the hardcore nudity thing at the end...that fits this person so well it's almost scary.
Miracle on Evergreen Terrace.
No sir, I don't like it.
>>84137308
I don't know exactly when Fox greenlighted a full length series but it had to have at least been in mid-1989 because that allowed 6-8 months to assemble a writing team, animators, and the other infrastructure beyond the very small staff who did the Ullman shorts.
>The Springfield Files
Holy shit this is amazing
>>84137310
Just read the synopsis, I remember this episode. Pretty accurate to my life, was really lucky with money when I was little, only thing is I don't have a strong connection with my biological father.
At first I was bummed finding out I was born right at the start of the transitional period, but after looking at Season 9, it still has a lot of great episodes in it.
>>84137063
So am I.
Was three days before my birthday.

Yep, not only it was funny but also a really nice jab at how mass hype, and the media representation of said hype works.
You could change "itchy and scratchy movie" with "the force awakens" and it would look like a documentary.
>>84136424
>tfw you people made me feel old
I remember a time before Simpsons.
uh, gabo´s episode. funny thing is i have a phobia against puppets
>Flaming Moe's
Yeah, I guess it's alright. I mean, I haven't seen it in ages, but that's one of the more memorable ones, right?
Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire
if you mean closest to when I was born
homer's night out is on my birthday plus a year
>Four Great Women and a Manicure
Never saw it lol

Solid episode, it was when the show was just entering the golden age

>>84138105
Same, I was one day off from the airdate.
Always thought this episode was weird whenever I saw it.
>>84138132
Same. June 5th, myself.
Pretty good episode
Last Exit to Springfield aired 10 days after my birth.

I was born in August of 91, there wasn't a single episode during that month since it was between seasons.
Stark Raving Dad aired September 19th, thats as close as it gets for me.
I didn't think it'd be an episode I actually remembered.

True, true that really puts the growth of the Simpson's into perspective and makes it even more remarkable.
And their crash and burn more depressing.
>>84136424
That would be Barts NightmareThe Tracey Ullman short[s/poiler] originally airing March 26th 1989 5 days before I was born.

The first episode, off by about six months though.
Radio Bart. That's a really good episode. Classic Bart.

Me neither but they started in 1987. Besides, they're on youtube if you care that much.
>Some Enchanted Evening
Homer takes Marge out for a romantic night, leaving the kids with a sitter---who's profiled on "America's Most Armed and Dangerous."
Neat, thats the one where the "oldsimpsonsanimation.gif" comes from.
>>84136424

One of the good episode that focuses on Lisa.
Off by a day. Good episode.
The one where Lisa is in the beauty pageant aired the day I was born
The Last Temptation of Homer - aired dec 9th 1993

good episode in my opinion.
>>84136424

>>84136493
"Simpsons Roasing on an Open Fire" premiered the day after I was born.
So for one day, I lived in a world where The Simpsons was not on television (unless you count the Ullman shorts).
There are actually two episodes nearest my birthday. Homerpalooza and Summer of 4 ft 2.
>>84136424
Born before the show however Lisa's First Word is my birth month and day and the flash back is in 1983, my birth year.

Not that great an episode. I was 4 days old when it aired.
The Simpsons: Family Portrait
Animated short.
It aired two days after my birthday. Yes, animated short, i was born before the show had its own timeslot.
Synopsis: Homer wants to take a family picture, but nobody else has time, or cares.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmpfcoYhp1Q
I hate this episode
The Cartridge Family
>In the episode, Homer purchases a gun to protect his family, of which Marge disapproves. Homer begins to show extremely careless gun usage causing Marge to leave him when she catches Bart using the gun without their permission
Sounds like a shitty season 9 neutral politics episode.

It's okay, not one of my favorites. But Homer being nice to P&S at the end is a good character moment for him.
First episode, since I was born in 1987.
I've actually never seen it
Wierd
Shorts work, Cause I'm older than the show...
If so it would be "Punching Bag" which aired on November 27th 1988
Marge and Homer throw the kids into their toy room and tell them to "play nice." A frustrated Bart takes out his anger on a punching bag; Lisa then takes a turn and adds motivation by drawing Homer's face on the bag. Homer, trying to nap, rudely commands Marge to make the kids stop; when the noise suddenly gets louder, he discovers Marge punching the bag. Homer then attempts to break the bag, only to be hit in the face and knocked unconscious.

I was born in '86, so the closest episode would've been the very first one.
I think my family either recorded a lot of the early episodes on VHS, or we would just watch the reruns over and over again. I remember being really into it for most of my childhood.
From the shorts: "Bart's Haircut" Series 2, Episode 8 15 November 1987
>When Bart's hair grows too long, Homer and Marge order him to get it cut. The barber ends up shaving Bart's entire head, and he attempts to disguise his scalp using glue, his old hair, and eventually a paper bag. The family promises not to laugh if he shows them the haircut, but fail to keep their vow when they see how ridiculous Bart looks.

>>84136424
"Brother, Can You Spare Two Dimes?" is the closest, having aired almost a month after I was born. Apparently, it was initially planned to be the premier of Season 4, but Fox changed it to the finale of Season 3 (there was a summer hiatus). Had they stuck to the original plans, "Bart's Friend Falls in Love" probably would have been the closest to my birthday, having aired nearly three months before I was born.
September second 93, Homers Barbershop Quartet.
I was born May 1989 so I guess the pilot.
