Talk:Marge vs. the Monorail

message: When Smithers and Mr. Burns leave the town meeting in a hurry, it's an homage to the scene in Tim Burton's Batman where Michael Keaton saves Kim Basinger, right? Just thought that should be added to the article. 2602:30A:2EDF:19B0:F5EE:ACF2:E00E:1A2 (talk) 19:12, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Batman (1989) reference

message: is this a satire of  the las vegas/Bombardier monorail fiasco?
: No, it came earlier, just a satire against transit hucksters and gullible townsfolk. dml 14:00, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: is this a satire?

message: Notice how in the Trivia it tells of a picture of the Hindenburg? Well... right next to the Hindenburg behind a couple dancing you can see a picture of the WTC burning. Normally this would seem ireelevent to me, but the episode is from 1994 and the WTC fell in 2001. I must say, this is the scariest thing I've ever seen on the Simpsons.
: I don't think the picture is of the WTC. I think its just a random building on fire. -- Scorpion 17:51, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Has anyone noticed that during the opening of the monorail, when Kent Brockman is talking to celebrities and 'Kyle Darin' walks by. You can see what looks to be a.. I don't want to say younger.. but less bulky(?) Kent Brockman?

replies: text: I don't think so. The character is basically looks like an off model Kent Brockman. -- Scorpion 07:25, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Weird 

message: I overall was very impressed with article on the whole. The only thing I can think of that could be improved would be the prose, which is a little bit less than brilliant. FireSpike 01:42, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Good Article Passed 

message: There is a music theme playing briefly during the dumping of the Nuclear waste at the beginning of the episode.  I was wondering what it is from.  It's a sleuthy detective type theme.  Maybe we should reference it in the article?  My father once told me it was from the show "Metro" but I have never been able to ascertain the answer for sure.  Your assistance is appreciated.

:Sorry, got no idea, couldn't find anything, not even on SNPP. My personal guess would be that it is from The Untouchables, but I don't now for sure. Gran2 22:11, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's always sounded to me like a version of 'Axel F' from Beverly Hills Cop, but with the notes slightly changed to avoid paying copyright. BillyH 00:38, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Music Man 

message: This page lists "Marge vs. the Monorail" as having aired in the fourth season.  It says that whe  Conan O'Brien pitched the idea, he was told to explore other subjects first; that he had previously pitched "Lisa's Rival," and it "went well."  But "Lisa's Rival" didn't air until the sixth season.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.156.219.125 (talk) 19:32, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Is it the Alweg in Seattle which gave the inspiration?! Being there yesterday and looking at the Mono the first thing that came in my mind had been Homer as monorail driver... --93.220.209.180 (talk) 19:09, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
