The mention from Henry about Ring Fit got me to get back into it. Cheers!

2021-09-30 21:03:34 +0000 UTCOn the topic of not knowing about "Adult" words as a child, I was once watching an episode of Friends where Joey pulls out his wallet and reveals a comical amount of condoms in it. I did not know what condoms were (but at this point, did know what sex was, vaguely anyway), and said I didn't get it. My sister's friend started to say something like "they're... candy" but my sister just kinda shook her head and said "don't" and I didn't press further.

2021-09-30 01:47:04 +0000 UTCIt's true! When I gained access to Global and CityTV's streaming services a couple years ago, for a while I was confused as to why I couldn't watch new Simpsons on the Global site... until I discovered it was on City TV (aaaand now it's not) Here's a typical ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-m6nWxMyP0

2021-09-29 21:24:12 +0000 UTCI haven't had cable in forever and my apartment placement means I only get one OTA signal(CTV), but CityTV is not the nostalgic home for Simpsons in Canada. It always aired on Global. Well I can say for certain that was true for seasons 5 through 17ish which was my "I absolutely must watch each episode live" range. Global always had Fox's entire Sunday lineup from my memory. Married With Children, Family Guy, Futurama, all of it. This article implies CityTV got it starting with season 30: https://toronto.citynews.ca/2018/06/05/the-simpsons-citytv-30th-season/

2021-09-29 21:09:45 +0000 UTCit's surreal watching the S33 premier, since now 99 was when they were in high school.

2021-09-29 09:19:57 +0000 UTCSorry for being pedantic but I wanted to give the correct version of the Seinfeld thing. Jerry is excited about going on a blind date with a "Donna Chang" and the scene goes: Jerry: "I love Chinese women." Elaine: "Isn't that a little racist?" Jerry: "If I LIKE their racist, how can that be racist?" Cue audience laughing and clapping. Definitely insinuated that Jerry was speaking the truth there. Of course, the punchline (and the main plot of this episode) is it turns out Donna Chang is a white woman who keeps saying/doing things that mislead people into thinking she's Chinese. It's George's parents who think she must be full of wise advice because of this misunderstanding.

2021-09-29 07:44:51 +0000 UTCTwo more Simpsons musical episodes: "My Fair Laddy", a full-on My Fair Lady parody with Willie as Eliza Doolitte. "Yokel Chords", a Sound of Music parody with Cletus' children as the Von Trapp children.
