Of course he uses the "du". It would be VERY unusual for anybody

This reminds me -- when I was in Germany last November
I got achance to see the Simpsons in German.  The interesting
thing was that in German, Bart calls Homer "Papa" which
I assume means father in German.  They completely miss
the joke that Bart calls his father by his first name all
the time.

 I HATE it when they do that ! Here in the netherlands, they first
 showed the simpsons in plain english, with dutch subtitles.
 Now, some asshole decided that it was too difficult to understand
 for the younger audience, so they dubbed it.
 Bart talking dutch is NOT funny !

Here are the answers from my friend at the Simpsons to the questions
posed by Courtney Powell in a previous post.  The numbered questions
are excerpted from Courtney's post.  The answers from my friend
are the paragraphs preceded by asterisks. In addition, if anyone
here still has the post about Mike Reiss and AL Jean's appearance
on Fresh Air, could you please repost it or send it to me via email?
My friend says that they would like to read it. (He already deleted
the copy I sent him)  Anyway, here are the answers. Post more questions 
if you are interested.



1. Is there ever going to be a Simps' full-length movie? Last I heard, two
   plots were under consideration. Can we know a little about them? Has prod-
   uction started yet?! 

***As of yet, no SIMPSONS movie is underway.  The only people who could write 
such a movie (the writing staff) are working 52 weeks a year on the shows, and
there's simply no time to start on a script.  We've heard that same rumor 
about two plots being under consideration and don't have any idea what it's 
supposed to mean. We've never heard of these plots.  Who's considering them?

2. Why is the animation being handed off to ANOTHER production company?
   Will the quality be just as good (a dumb question, but, ya know)

***I'm not sure, but I believe there was some sort of falling out between the 
show and the old animation company.  From the looks of what we've seen so far 
this year, I'd say the animation is going to be BETTER than it used to be.

3. Are there ANY plans for a soundtrack containing all the cool background
   Alf Clausen scores from the Simpsons? (A TRUE dream for me!)

***There is a new Simpsons record coming out for this Christmas season.  
Unfortunately, it won't contain background scores, but rather new pop songs.  
I don't know whether the Simpsons will be singing, but some pretty big names 
in rock are involved in writing the songs.

I was just cruising through some old Simpsons tapes and came across a scene
where Bart is watching Krusty and they run names of all the birthday kids 
at very high speed and Bart says, "Best 8 bucks I ever spent."  This was
very humorous, but I thought it might be interesting to slow mo the list
and jot down the names to see if there was anything funny in it.

There was.  The list is:

??ne Goodwin
Reagan Gray
Paul Grenville
Jim Greigor
Harriet Hartman
Mike Himes
Julie Hirsh
Janet Hopkins
Cara Hunter
Gracie Jensen
Loretta Kangas
Marilyn Katz
Ken Keeler

Bart Simpson
Larry Stone
Beth Summerlin
Kate Suuberg
Dale Thomas
John Travis
Eric Van Buerden
Patric Verrone
Lee Wallace
Jay Weinstein
Chris White
Jay Wiviott
Henry Yeomans


So, I only recognized one name (well, I recognized Bart Simpson's too, but
I don't think that counts here), but it was a funny one.  I grew up in 
Seattle where the clown JP Patches used to do this same damn thing, except
he played the names slower.  I don't think he charged for them either, but
I'd have to ask my Mom to be sure.  Anyhow, seeing a reference to JP made me
wonder if there were other names on this list that people recognized.

Of course we could digress about JP, Gertrude, Ketchikan Sam the Animal Man,
Ghorst the Friendly Phurple and Esmirelda, but I'm not sure that is 
necessary.

Well, I think there are so many good moments it is hard to 
narrow it down to just one.  But the one that sticks in my
mind is from "Radio Bart" where Bart first realizes that
he left his name on the radio at the bottom of the well, and
we get a "D'Oh!" from him.  The expression on his face then
was priceless, even if it was only a cartoon. :-)

Well, John, thank you for your little diatribe.

From the Oxford English Dictionary II:
gourmand: One who is fond of delicate fare; a judge of good eating.
In this sense only partially anglicized, and oftem pronounced ().
(Cf. GOURMET.)

In case you didn't know, Yeardly also appeared in the recent Billy Chrystal
movie "City Slickers."  In the cocktail party scene (when "the boys" are
deciding whether or not to visit the dude ranch for a vacation)  Yeardly
appears at the door to the apartment.  She plays a teenage supermarket checkout

Just watched some Simpsons tapes... in the early episode w/the spy camera

"Hi Mike, this is Al, thanks for the ahem, Fax...".  Inside joke no

   BTW, anyone know when Fox will air the next original episode? I had 
thought they had at least one left from the old season they would air in 
July. I guess not.  Are there, in fact, any Klasky-Csupo ones left before 
Season #4 (Film Roman) starts?  Also, any word on a Season #4 date?

	It doesn't mean anything, and it isn't a common phrase by any means.
Homer's the first "person" I know to have said it. It's just an exclamation
Homer makes when he's frustrated, like he was saying "damn" or something.

	It's pronounced "doe". "Dough" is sometimes used as a term for
money.

WHat I remember hearing was that the creative team at Gracie Films was 
always constanmntly arguing with the animation team at Klasky-Csupo.  
Also, K-C is a non-union shop I think, and in the beginning it was cheap 
for Fox to use them.  Film Roman will be the new production house 
(remember though, a lot of the prelim work is done in the US her, but the 
vast bulk of the animation is all done in Korea, by two giant Korean 
animation houses, "Akom", and "Anivision").
  I too will be anxious to see how the show looks.  The actual character 
animation should not change, but the backgrounds and little things might 
look a tad different...
