Well, if he had turned the oven off, we wouldn't have gotten to hear about the aurora borealis at that time of year, at that time of day, in that part of the country, localized entirely within Skinner's kitchen
Another underrated part of this scene: Skinner struggles to answer questions about the "steamed hams," then IMMEDIATELY is able to concoct the Aurora Borealis story.
All Skinner said in regards to the Aurora Borealis story was saying "Aurora Borealis" in response to Chalmers asking "What is happening in there?" and subsequently "Yes" after Chalmers' seemingly rhetorical sequence of inquiries.
If Skinner had an Aurora Borealis to produce, he would've let Chalmers see it immediately. Do you know how impressive that would be to have the Aurora Borealis localized entirely within your kitchen?
@@Sonnakai “I once convinced a super intendant that I had aurora borealis localised entirely within my kitchen in this part of the country, at this time of day, at this time of year. And he bought it because I believed it.”
Chalmers knows most of Seymour is saying is a lie, he just doesn't care. It just aurora borealis is a rare sight to behold and he doesn't want to miss it if Seymour is telling the truth.
A U R O R A. B O R E A L I S. At this time of year? At this time of day? IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY? LOCALIZED ENTIRELY WITHIN YOUR KITCHEN?? No May I see it? Yes
This is the Golden Ratio of comedy. Not only is it so simple and easy to follow, but even if you'd never watched Simpsons before, if we were 1000 years into the future, and this were the only clip to survive a media purge, you'd completely understand both these characters, the comedy is super universal because of its simplicity, and in less than 3 minutes its crafted perfect parallel arc while ramping of the hilarity and absurdity of the situation.
Skinner is actually very relatable in this skit, because I too would rather let my house burn down than admit I made a mistake to someone important I was trying to impress.
According to the creators, Chalmers is the only person in the show able to function outside of Springfield. He knows everyone is crazy, but he gets by by not asking too many questions so he doesn’t get sucked down a rabbit hole, hence why he indulges in Skinner’s lies.
The funniest part of this skit isn't any of the absurd lies or Chalmers reaction. It's the moment Chalmers asks to see the "aurora borealis" and Skinner legitimately thinks before responding "no"

My friend and I re-enacted this skit as a campfire skit at our summer camp, in front of the entire population of the camp. We also trained another friend to shout Seymour's mother's lines on cue. It went surprisingly well, and I got to go home knowing that I had taught Steamed Hams to many an uncultured person.
Hi! In a couple weeks from now, me and a buddy of mine will perform a live-action recreation of Steamed Hams for my Theatre class. I'll do my best to upload it. Expect it to come late February.
I always found it odd that they are both wearing full suits and coats; despite neither being at the school. The fact that they are eating *lunch at Skinner’s mom’s house* implies that this is a weekend and school’s out; but that they dress in work clothes even during their off-days.
Random videos that nobody watches! “Ah- Aurora borealis?! At this time of year, at this time of day, localized entirely within your kitchen?!” Seymour: *_no hesitation whatsoever_* “Yes.”
in 2018, i was a 13 year old boy from china who had just moved to the US with family, in a completely new environment. new school, new home, new internet, new people around me, and i was struggling to adjust because my english was terrible and i knew little about the western culture. i opened youtube for the first time to try and figure out what was popular over here, and i dug into the hole of memes. since i was lonely and didn't have much friends, i spent most of my time on this side of youtube, enjoying all the memes and ytps that were popular back then. but among all of them, the steamed hams meme stood out to me as incredibly funny, and i loved watching all the edits, even memorized the script of the original simpsons clip somehow. 4 years later, almost 5, life has changed and i now feel happy and at home here, but i always look back at the steamed hams meme with a smile because it kept me laughing when life was hard.
1:52 I love how Superintendent Chalmers takes one bite from the burger but somehow it magically grows back to a full burger once presented as grilled lol
Lines in this video that are statements of fact: “My roast is ruined!” “These hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Krusty burger.” “You call them steamed hams despite the fact that they are obviously grilled.” “Seymour! The House is on fire!” “Well, Seymour, you are an odd fellow...”
@@gokud.uzumaki1520 if you went blind you'd see he put it on the stove top. Not the oven the oven is the inside of machine. The top is called the stove you absolute dickwad
This was actually shot in 3 takes. Take 1: Chalmers is OBLIVIOUS to Skinner’s lies. Take 2: Chalmers is SUSPICIOUS that skinner is lying. Take 3: Chalmers is AWARE that skinner is lying. These takes were spliced together to create tension, making the audience unaware of how much Chalmers knew.
@@benjamina6618 Sure! So, when they filmed the scenes between Christian Bale and Willem Defoe in American Psycho, they filmed three takes for every scene. One take where Dafoe's character knew Bale was the killer, one where he suspected he was the killer, and one where he had no idea that he was the killer. The editors then spliced these takes together to form each scene, making it extremely equivocal as to how much Dafoe's character knows. This makes the audience feel more uncertain and paranoid, just as Bale's character would be feeling under interrogation, and helps to create further tension.
Superintendent: *takes bite of the hamburger* 10 seconds later: Superintendent: “despite the fact they are Obviously grilled” *shows whole burger, uneaten*
In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something? Ha ha, boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.
I always wonder if Harry Shearer and Hank Azaria are actually aware of how much a cultural phenomenon this scene they worked on has become within the current modern age of the internet. It’s just too perfect. Even without the internet memes. This is gold.
All of a sudden it MAY be possible at that time of day, at that time of year, in that part of the country-and just maybe, localized entirely within his kitchen.
Agree. Now it’s just a laughingstock of what it was. However, I continue watching it, because of Tress MacNeille. That woman was a very big part of my childhood. I can’t imagine the show without her. And I’ll make sure everyone gets hurt losing their childhood idol.
Memorised this whole scene as a kid, 20 years before any memes. Just an exquisitely crafted masterpiece of comedy. My fave bit now is that little aborted "uh..." Chalmers makes as he discovers Skinner sneaking out of his kitchen with the oven smoking.
I got to see aurora borealis at this time of year, at this time of day, in my part of the country, but it wasn’t localized entirely within my kitchen. Damn Skinner with his crazy explanations!
2:28 You can actually see Superintendent’s thought process where instead of just pointing out Skinner’s lies and firing him, he decides to play along because he understands what skinner is trying to do and is sympathetic.
Skinner with his Crazy Explanations The Superintendent's gonna need his Medication When he hear's Skinner's lame Exaggerations There'll be trouble in town, Tonight!
Okay story time. When I was a kid, my dad (and sometimes the rest of the family) went to visit his elderly parents down south on occasion. At one point he bought some Simpsons DVDs to watch during his downtime. Later, 10 year old (or whatever) me got a hold of them and watched them on a portable DVD player my parents used to entertain me on long car rides. I watched multiple seasons in totality, and THIS scene stuck was the only one that I remember well. Fast forward several years (at least a decade I think) and I'm watching a twitch stream and the streamer yells "WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE?!" And I immediately go "Aurora borealis?" and we proceeded to go through the skit. I wasn't aware steamed hams was a meme until I encountered Steamed Hams but videos later. I just think it's hilarious the one scene I remember well from dozens of episodes is the one that became a meme.
I have a story similar but a little different, I would visit my grandma in Colorado and while there some re-runs of South Park would play and I just watched that while the adults were talking and having conversations. Man, my parents weren't the greatest were they?
@@mohamededbey I am grateful, it was a joke. Infact, it's a joke share around my house to this day. My family is like, constantly roasting each other and we just laugh about it. I don't want to start nothing, I just wanted to give clarification.
you know, the "two number 45s" scene from san andreas was one that stuck with me before it became a meme. i had to watch it dozens of times because the mission that came after it was really hard.
@@marisolbecerra06 I'm going to write a version of Steamed Hams with characters of my own creation. It'll release in 2022. When? Revealing it would spoil a surprise.

I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon! Chalmers: Yeah...

(He closes the oven) My roast is ruined! (Looks outside window) But what if... I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking? Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Delightfully devilish Seymour.

Skinner: Superintendent, I was just, uh- s-stretching my calves on the window seal. Isometric exercise! Care to join me? Chalmers: Why is there smoke coming out of your oven Seymour? Skinner: Uh. Oh! That isn't smoke! It's steam, steam from the Steamed Clams we'll be having. Mmmm, Steamed Clams! Chalmers: (Exits kitchen) Seymour: Hooh! (Wipes forehead and climbs through window running to Krusty Burger) (Enters dining room with platter of burgers) Superintendent I hope you're ready for some mouth watering hamburgers! Chalmer: (Tucks cloth into collar of suit) I thought we were having Steamed Clams. Skinner: Oh, no! I said Steamed Hams, that's what I call hamburgers! Chalmers: You call hamburgers, Steamed Hams? Skinner: Yes! It's a regional dialect. Chalmers: Uh huh, uh, what region? Skinner: Uh.. Upstate New York. Chalmers: Really? Well I'm from Utica, and I've never heard anyone use the phrase "Steamed Hams." Skinner: Oh, not in Utica. No, its an Albany expression! Chalmers: I see.

Chalmers: Yes, and you call them "Steamed Hams" despite the fact that they are obviously grilled. (Faces burger patty towards Skinner) (Smoke starts to seep out from the kitchen door) Skinner: Y- uh... (Wipes mouth with cloth) You know... One thing I sh-... Excuse me for one second. (Gets up from chair) Chalmers: Of course.

Chalmers: (Checks watch and gets up from chair) Yes, I should be going- GOOD LORD WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE?! (Points to kitchen door) Skinner: Aurora Borealis. Chalmers: A- Aurora Borealis?! At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your kitchen?! Skinner: Yes! Chalmers: ...May I see it? Skinner: No. (Chalmers and Skinner go through the front door) Skinner's Mother: Seymour, the house is on fire! Skinner: No mother, it's just the Northern Lights! Chalmers: Well Seymour, you are an odd fellow, but I must say. You steam a good ham. (Walks off of porch as Skinner's house is on fire) (Turns around and looks at the house) Seymour's Mother: HELP! HELP! Seymour: (Raises thumb and smiles at Chalmers) Chalmers: (Walks away) Skinner: (Runs inside)
The best part is how he doesn’t hesitate with Aurora Borealis but then has to think about his next answer when the superintendent asks if he can see it
I like how he says Aurora Borealis without even waiting a second.
That’s probably the funniest part, how easy and quickly Seymour can lie.
He probably planned it when he went in the kitchen.

My friend and I re-enacted this skit as a campfire skit at our summer camp, in front of the entire population of the camp. We also trained another friend to shout Seymour's mother's lines on cue. It went surprisingly well, and I got to go home knowing that I had taught Steamed Hams to many an uncultured person.

I always found it odd that they are both wearing full suits and coats; despite neither being at the school.
The fact that they are eating *lunch at Skinner’s mom’s house* implies that this is a weekend and school’s out; but that they dress in work clothes even during their off-days.

in 2018, i was a 13 year old boy from china who had just moved to the US with family, in a completely new environment. new school, new home, new internet, new people around me, and i was struggling to adjust because my english was terrible and i knew little about the western culture.
i opened youtube for the first time to try and figure out what was popular over here, and i dug into the hole of memes. since i was lonely and didn't have much friends, i spent most of my time on this side of youtube, enjoying all the memes and ytps that were popular back then. but among all of them, the steamed hams meme stood out to me as incredibly funny, and i loved watching all the edits, even memorized the script of the original simpsons clip somehow.
4 years later, almost 5, life has changed and i now feel happy and at home here, but i always look back at the steamed hams meme with a smile because it kept me laughing when life was hard.
I love this

Finally got to see it localised entirely within Berkshire. Had to watch this as a rule
Watched it from the south of Ireland, and I just so happened to have had a burger earlier that day.
0:31 something nobody talks about. Skinner put his apron on top of the stove. That's what caused the fire, not the burnt roast.

This was actually shot in 3 takes.
Take 1: Chalmers is OBLIVIOUS to Skinner’s lies.
Take 2: Chalmers is SUSPICIOUS that skinner is lying.
Take 3: Chalmers is AWARE that skinner is lying.
These takes were spliced together to create tension, making the audience unaware of how much Chalmers knew.
Nice American Psycho reference!
Christian Bale played Skinner mother.
@@AlfredoPuente80:34 skinner & the superintendent
@@elijahmeilak2906 I'm afraid I missed the reference, care to explain?
@@benjamina6618 Sure! So, when they filmed the scenes between Christian Bale and Willem Defoe in American Psycho, they filmed three takes for every scene. One take where Dafoe's character knew Bale was the killer, one where he suspected he was the killer, and one where he had no idea that he was the killer. The editors then spliced these takes together to form each scene, making it extremely equivocal as to how much Dafoe's character knows. This makes the audience feel more uncertain and paranoid, just as Bale's character would be feeling under interrogation, and helps to create further tension.

I always wonder if Harry Shearer and Hank Azaria are actually aware of how much a cultural phenomenon this scene they worked on has become within the current modern age of the internet. It’s just too perfect. Even without the internet memes. This is gold.

Back when the Simpsons was the gold standard for TV
Agree. Now it’s just a laughingstock of what it was. However, I continue watching it, because of Tress MacNeille. That woman was a very big part of my childhood. I can’t imagine the show without her. And I’ll make sure everyone gets hurt losing their childhood idol.

Only here because I saw Aurora Borealis last night and this was the only thing that I thought of all night.
2:28 You can actually see Superintendent’s thought process where instead of just pointing out Skinner’s lies and firing him, he decides to play along because he understands what skinner is trying to do and is sympathetic.
i like to think seymour responded with such unabashed confidence that chalmers had no choice but to believe him
Skinner answered "Aurora borealis" and "yes" with such confidence that Chalmers actually belived him. Wow, huge respect.

Okay story time. When I was a kid, my dad (and sometimes the rest of the family) went to visit his elderly parents down south on occasion. At one point he bought some Simpsons DVDs to watch during his downtime.
Later, 10 year old (or whatever) me got a hold of them and watched them on a portable DVD player my parents used to entertain me on long car rides. I watched multiple seasons in totality, and THIS scene stuck was the only one that I remember well.
Fast forward several years (at least a decade I think) and I'm watching a twitch stream and the streamer yells "WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE?!" And I immediately go "Aurora borealis?" and we proceeded to go through the skit. I wasn't aware steamed hams was a meme until I encountered Steamed Hams but videos later.
I just think it's hilarious the one scene I remember well from dozens of episodes is the one that became a meme.
I have a story similar but a little different, I would visit my grandma in Colorado and while there some re-runs of South Park would play and I just watched that while the adults were talking and having conversations. Man, my parents weren't the greatest were they?
