     According to an article by Mike Duffy of Los Angeles in the local tv
guide:

     Bob Hope, Leonard Nimoy, Linda Ronstadt and Tom Jones will all make guest
appearances on the Simpsons this season.
     Bart will get a girlfriend (played by Sara Gilbert of 'Roseanne'), Maggie
talks for the first time, Marge gets a job at the power plant, and the Simpsons
will "offer a satiric send-up of Saturday Night Live."
     25 episodes were ordered for this season, compared to 13 episodes of Ren
and Stimpy.  "Meanwhile, a friendly rivalvy seems to be brewing between
television's two most creative and inspired cartoon shows.  Both The Simpsons
and Ren and Stimpy will be vying for an Emmy in the animation category, an
award won the last two years by Bart's cockeyed family."
     "'They're maybe a little more outrageous than we are,' says Al Jean [exec
producer].  "But if we lose to Ren and Stimpy, there's no shame in that."

I would hate for it to appear that a long-time reader of this proud

...Not to mention the fact that the writers of the Simpsons (most definately 
not Matt) predicted 6 MONTHS before the Superbowl the teams that were playing
in the Superbowl, which stadium it would be played at, and who won. I think
that wins the all time prize for prophesy right there.
	Always remember that these episodes are finished (in scripted state)
about 6 months before we see them!

It'll probably be like the last time they replied to something Bush
said (when he compared them to the Cosby Show) where they're all
sitting around watching Bush on TV (not a cartoon Bush but the real
thing) make the statement and then they say their reply.

According to the radio this morning, the Simpsons will strike back by

	I don't know if it has a futher heritage, btu this segment is based on
an old Twilight Zone episode, In which the super powered kid is abandoned by
family and neighbohrs in fear, and sets about kidnapping others to replace
them. 

	There is a second level of humor here; that same segment was adapted
for Twilight Zone:The Movie. Nancy Cartwright (voice of Bart) portrayed the
superkid's kidnapped 'sister'. In the film, she is magically transported to an
animated world and eaten by a 'toon when she fails to think happy thoughts.
Ironic, isn't it?

	This was Nancy's second silver screen appearance, but for her U.S.
fans, Paul Verhoeven's medieval epic ("Fire and Ice", I believe; been a while
since I've seen it) might as well have not been theatrically released. It is 
available on videotape - she plays a comic relief servant to the heroine.

An apology to all who were offended/bothered.  I was having a bad day.
Now, in keeping with the topic at hand 

My favorite Simpson's moment is the soap box derby episode when Barney mistakes
one of Marge's sisters for Mary Tyler Moore.  The sister sprays mace in
Barney's face and he screams, "Oh! Ow! Oh! [BURRRRRRRRP] Ow!"

Barney's expected burp that arrives at the unexpected moment is generally
amusing.

Bart's in fourth grade, isn't he?  10 years old, I think. Lisa's
younger, but by how much I don't know.

No, their ages/grades never change, thanks to the magic of cartoon
actors.  You don't violate any sacred ethical/legal injunctions by
indefinitely postponing puberty for drawn characters.  Cool, eh?

A lot of the great funny moments are due to Mr. Burns.  My favorite is
during the Fugu episode, after Homer checks off "Tell off boss" from his
list of things to do.  After ascertaining his identity from Smithers,
Burns says something like:

"Simpson, eh?  Have him come to my office on Monday.  We'll see who eats
WHOSE shorts."

Yes, I think a lot of Simpsons fanatics, assuming they have cable would
love Ren & Stimpy.  By comparison, Ren & Stimpy is to The Simpsons on TV 
as Bloom County/Outland was/is to Doonesbury in the comics.  (This comparison
is used solely to illustrate the differnce between the two shows and not
to say that R & S = Bloom and Simpsons = Doonesbury!) 

Matt Groening loves R & S so much he hopes to have R & S  guest on the
Simpsons this year (USA today, 7/24/92).

The original Twilight Zone episode was based on (actually it was copied

Pretty freaky.  It was quite hysterical to see Bart as the kid in that.

It seemed like a low budget version of 90210.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if it

It would be complete suicide! The show is really not that great, and

Well...that's the part that makes it like 90210, and MR.Pl.  I do agree with,
you however, it was exceptionally bad-  I blame this on the writers.  At least
90210 had decent writers, once upon a time.
