- What if The Simpsons were a British show? It would be shorter and a lot more depressing. Subscribe and support me on Kofi, and I promise not to make any more British Simpsons: ko-fi.com/mist.... This can end today.
Homer never gets angry, he's just passive aggressive all the time
...kinda like the original Homer, who was a lovable, blue-collar oaf with a conscience.
(He didn't even have the speech deficiency in the early episodes)

@@Dhakadice Weirdly enough, he's even the closest thing to a neutral character we can have to relate to, throughout season 1. Even Marge isn't quite as reasonable as she's later in the series, to balance Homer's dangerously increasing wackiness. The poor guy clearly tries his best to make his crappy family work.
Unless he's drunk.
@@lordbyron9172 YOU, dear sir, have a deep understanding of this series that most people don't!
The most British thing would be to produce 3 seasons with 5 episodes each.
Series*
I'd be suprised if we got 1 with 3 episodes tbh
6 episodes. 3, if it were produced by ITV, and shown over a bank holiday weekend.
And stretch this out over 12 years
they can't all have 5 episodes, either 2nd or 3rd need to be shorter than the rest
British Simpsons:
2 seasons
6 episodes each
First season aired in 1989, the second season aired in 1996.
It’s regarded as a true masterpiece.
🤣 That's so on point.
Why you diminutive!
They also call it a series instead of season.
Most of Season 2 was lost to reduce the amount of film stock used, and a community sprung up around reconstructing the missing episodes.

Britain's been in a death spiral for over a century; first the First World War took out the best and brightest men in the country, then it lost most of Ireland, then the Depression hit, then the Second World War put Britain in a dramatic financial and military position, then the colonies declared independence and the Empire crumbled, then the Suez Crisis hit and turned Britain into a second-rate power, and finally, by the late 1970s, unemployment was rife, people's working hours were cut and electricity had to be rationed during winter. Compared to all that, Brexit's effects have been negligible.

We would still be watching and talking about every one of the two seasons, eight episodes and Christmas special to this day.
It somehow took me rewatching this 3 times to realize “Marjorie” actually had a flag on her plate. For some reason I thought “eat your flag” was a British idiom I was unfamiliar with.
I thought so too. I even went out of my way to look for it, no reference through. We may have to look for a British speaker to confirim.
@@Tomm192 there is no such thing as British speaker.
@@Tomm192 I am British and can confirm we don't say that I thought it was a brexit joke but it's probably not
I am... delighted to explain the very weird and specific context of this :) There has been a lot of angst and anxiety (and weird culture war bullshit) about the taking down of statues in the UK over the last couple of years- people wanted to take down a statue of Rhodes at Oxford University, the Tory (Conservative Party) government threatened to send a police guard to protect a statue of Winston Churchill, and most notably, some students were put on trial and acquitted for being part of a group that toppled a statue of a slave trader, Edward Colston, in Bristol.
The flag obsession is part of the same culture war nonsense. Tory MPs (and sometimes some from other parties) started appearing in Zoom meetings with many, or comically large, flags behind them. They then implied, or just said, that anyone who laughed at them or criticised them was unpatriotic. The kind of person who obsesses over protecting statues (like British Homer) would probably also be pro-flags as home decor. Eating it is just a bit of anarchic silliness.
I'm a British speaker and I've been saying this my whole life. It's a common phrase down our way. Eat your flag brings back so many memories. Eating my flag on the Trooping of the Colour day. Eating my flag during the Queen's speech. So many memories. Eating one's flag is about celebrating great British values, like waiting in lines and not shoving, endlessly lurching to the political right, and blaming poor people for problems caused by the obscenely wealthy. What's the best way to eat a flag, I hear you ask? Everyone has their preference but I like mine served with a side of coronation chicken on a plate made out of a bulldog's face. Eat your flag, it's terrific.

It should be possible to be proud of one's culture and country without excessive flag waving.
@@ximono "you seem to be caught in the false dichotomy of the extreme left against the extreme right. It shouldn't be that polarized, it's only pitting people against each other"
That's not a "false dichotomy", it's the essence of all left (marxist etc) ideas. Divide the society (usually on matters of small importance) as much as possible than take the power - first through infiltrating the media and culture, second by brute force and barely concealed machinations as witnessed lately in the US. And then eliminate the society and culture of the "bad majority" altogether. It's all been done many times, sadly, and doesn't look like it'll stop until it breaks the Western world into pieces.

Little known fact: Bartholomew Simptson was Peter Alcoholism's final role, and the first season was aired posthumously in his honour.
Some people think the guest appearance of Jimmy Savile in the first season's final episode was what drove Peter over the edge to drink himself to death.
His daughter has, however, rejected all accusations that Peter knew of Savile's "conduct with minors", so we may well never know why he drank himself to death, or if it even was intentional.

As a British person I can confirm that this is 100% NOT accurate. Who the hell talks like that?! 😅
As an English person, my first thoughts where who the fuck talks like that? 2nd thoughts were, Just Nah, not it. But nice try.
I like that you couldn’t decide what ridiculous British food to use so you just had them eat the Union Jack. I’d still prefer if it was a toast sandwich.
Marmite.
No, "Eat your flag" is a saying.
Or some utterly vile quintessentially British dish such as Bubble and Squeak 🤮
Tinned pottage and eel pie
No British people actually talk posh like this video shows 😂 most of us talk like charvas hahah
It would be 6 episodes long and this was probably the final episode.
“Homer, the Wayne’s gone way beyond the statue of Winston Churchill.”
What???
What the hell is she saying?
Homer, the weean's got the head o yon statue o Winston Churchill (Homer, the child has the head of that statue of Winston Churchill).
Why you diminutive!
@@Sammedine thanks, i was scratching my head for a good ten minutes with that one
Wayne's = weens = wee'uns = Wee ones = small child
My Year 8 form teacher called them The Symptoms. She never explained why.
She was more right than you can imagine.
Well… and there's some people who call Cinnamon rolls "Synonym rolls".
Symptoms of White Supremacy given how they portray Apu and how few non-white characters. I guess Springfield is located in 1930s Germany.

Sparkling word play there
“You must not take possession of a bovid, father:”
**slow zoom on Margery’s face**
**very British narrator**
“Margery truly wanted to quit smoking, but the repeating cycle of her husband’s abuse towards her son, and her son’s lashing out due to the abuse kept her in the filthy habit; though she so hated the awful images on the cigarette packages. As her husband gormlessly jokes again that he killed their son, she couldn’t help but want another ciggy then and there. She had watched her poor, wretched mother cough her very lungs out in that Edinburgh hospital all those years ago. The woman had been as thin as a Weetabix, angrily cursing her fate, the doctors, God, the Devil, and the Scottish Football Association in gasping, blood-stained rasps. Such would be her fate, too, she reckoned.”
**Margery lights cigarette**
this isn't the place for emo fanfiction
so...where's your channel at:)
* asks with childlike wonder *
@@Biodeamon An overly dramatic British satire of an offbeat comedic animation series isn’t the place?
"Cursed god... and the Scottish Football association" PURE GOLD! Are you a Robert Rankin fan by any chance?
or more likely making racist comments about how great britain supposedly is and how they want to own the world again after brexit. This country is pathetic 👎🏾
Margery seemed unfazed by her son's brutal demise.
Classic brit phlegm 👍
They were not close.
Stiff upper lip and all that, what?
Brit smegm.
Margery be like: Meh, he was a pain in the arse anyway.
Unfazed, technically.
If The Simpsons were a british show, it never would have gone on as long as it has. They would have ended it for no reason after the third series despite its growing popularity.
Britain has the longest running TV soap in the world "Coronation street" which first aired in 1960. Plus "Eastenders" has been running since 1985. And also the longest running sitcom in the world "Last of the summer wine" which ran from 1973 for 31 series over 37 years and ended in 2010. I actually live where it was filmed.
So you enjoyed Green Wing as well?
They stop season's after 3 series as the logic is that shows pretty much go down hill from there. They would rather the show went out on a high than letting it fade.
@@peytonmars806 green wing, Inbetweeners, the office, the young ones, blackadder and men behaving badly all would have stretched on for years had they been American shows lol
@@lukeet331 "the office" *looks nervously over at the US version
The Simpsons but Willy is the Mayor
I'd watch this shit. I'd watch this shit every day of my life
Too bad it would only be on for twenty years, meaning it would have four series with eight episodes each... luckily there would be fifty Christmas specials.
Johnny I’d shit this watch. I’d shit this watch every day of my life.
I'd watch this shit and beat the hell out of my wife. Then watch more.
I would 100% watch this as well
What I like most about this is that it's a British person doing an American person's idea of what a British Simpsons would be.
Layers.
Like an ogre.
I’m British and this is mostly accurate. They wouldn’t sound so posh though. But yeah, pretty much nailz it. The Simptsons.
nah homer would bring out a knife on bart and mug him if it was accurate (coming from a british person)
@@archiemetherell Marge was totally accurate though. Just needs to be fatter. 🤣
How is this accurate, I'm British and i don't see the resemblance
@@jacob_sigma yeah same
No why would I eat a flag
The more I listen to British Homer, the more I think this is Sideshow Bob undercover
"Do we, father?" I felt that
As a British Simpson myself, I can say this is 100% accurate
Normie
Funny and original
Oh look it’s this joke again. Wouldn’t be a RUclips video without six hundred people making this joke again
Oh its this joke again. Its not funny or original. Talk about a cheat code to hundreds or thousands of likes.

As a British person this is so accurate with the rain in the background and the mothers accent
sucking up to americans, yep you ARE british
Inaccurate, the weather's far better in this parody.
(Also, I love how the statue's head just falls down onto the table from the roof.)
An upper class father and glaswegian mother? Absolutely relatable 😂
No crossover?
I want to hear them both drunk, now!😂
She's ulster Scots
@@JohnDoe-gc1pmno she isnt, you just wanted to use that word
I like how you captured the fact that every British person has a bronze statue of Winston Churchill in their house somewhere, as is tradition.
and when you tell that to Americans they just don't believe you...
How is that so hard to believe? I have George Washington's statue right behind me.
@@eario9244 probably plastic
Lenin for Russians, Mao for Chinese, and Hitler for Germany
“Diminutive” is un-ironically a great insult
why you little...
This is like a crappy skit from the 1800s where the joke is "hyuck, foreigners are different"
It takes a special kind of unfunny to piss such a good setup right down your leg.
The creator is English isn't he? So this is the long British tradition of self deprication.
found the furstrated brit lol, this was hilarious
Even his cartoons have flowing hair and no eyebrows. The man lives in a unique world, one that we merely peer into with wonder.
He clearly lives in a posh patriotic fantasy land where they worship churchill, have union jacks everywhere and probably hate different races... oh wait that actually is what people are like in this country!

American Homer: What's a jib?
Navy Captain Tenille: Hah! Promote that man
"Why you diminutive" seemed so appropriate, somehow.
pretty much how most brits talk to us non-white people. They'd strangle us too if they had the guts. Luckily I'm a Londoner so the problem is sorted but I daren't wonder outside the M25.
@@chiomaakindeleokoye4914 I doubt you’ve ever left your house, let alone ‘wandered outside of the M25’...
@@chiomaakindeleokoye4914 do you have a channel? If you don't can you make one and talk about this stuff. No shit, seriously Americans don't know about racism in Britain and so they actually don't believe it exists. I REALLY think they need to learn about the worse parts of England because half of them want to move there to escape the bad shit in America, and I don't think they, in any way, understand what's going on over there.
@@reuvenknight1575 no no, she should make a cartoon with this subject matter 🤞🏻
@@theSPUDereHD that would take a long time and a lot of work. It's not a fair request for anyone, even an animator. If she can, I'm sure it would be good, but it sounds like there is a lot to address and it would require multiple cartoons and non-cartoon episodes.
episode 750 is going in a weird new direction. I like it.
Homer: "Well Margerie, the boy is dead."
Margerie: "Oh no! Anyway..."
Should be 'Oh dear!'

"We no longer have a Donald Duck, but we still have our Huey, Louie, and, umm..."
"Dewey, father?"
I found "Why, you diminutive...." to be funnier than just about anything that's come out of the Simpsons in nearly 20 years.
Season 1 is better than the other 33 so I don't know what you're piping on about.
@@Bruh-zx2mc wrong.
@@CheeseMiser Nope. Say what you're going to say about the "golden age", focusing on comedy instead of drama with a _tiny bit_ of comedy was a big mistake on the writers' part.
@@Bruh-zx2mc season 1 was just early footing. Its agreed upon by the majority that 2-8 is the best
@@CheeseMiser "Early footing" does not equal "bad". The characterizations and style they went with later were worse by comparison.
How’d did I guess that Marge would have a Scottish accent 🤣
Much too colorful, I distinctly remember the UK being a lot more greyish beige.
RUclips compression means you can't see most of the rain.
Part of the reason we 'still have our pride' is that most people see it in sepia, in soft-focus, and with the timeline running about 60 years behind.
It's a lot more brown today
Now, imagine if The Simpsons was actually produced in Britain. I wonder what they imagine The Simpsons would look like in America :P
I have no idea what Marge said, yet this was still amazing.
in the most understandable way possible: homer, bart has stolen the head of the statue of winston churchill. not a direct quote because if you can't understand what she's saying then i doubt you'd understand the transcript either.
Can u translate word by word? Genuinely curious
@@theonlyconstantischange123 Homer, the weans (child) got the head o' yon (your) statue of Winston Churchill (British Prime minister)
Incidentally Marge is speaking in a Scottish accent. Which may explain why she says 'your' Winston Churchill instead of 'our' Winston Churchill
