    Remember how Jimbo and Kearnie were against cutting the head off Jebediah yet they were shown doing it in the intro? Remember Lisa found out he was really a pirate. Maybe Jumbo and Kearnie found out the truth later on and believed Lisa?

    I enjoy Springfield. Sure its founded by a pirate, but its a colourful place full of lovable people, mobsters, drunks, evil corporate businessmen and a very passionate baseball field! Not only does it's town hall like to break out in song on occasions, it's got one Helluva Burlesque House that do put the 'SPRING' in Springfield!

    @danielmalinen6337 Год назад +3

    Thanks for this cohesive video. I have previously thought that nothing in The Simpsons is as flexible and bowsing as the history of Springfield, which bends every time to the demands of the story that moves the episode forward, for example, sometimes Jebediah is canon and sometimes not. But this video helped me understand that history has managed to keep its cohesiveness unlike I thought.

    Yeah The Simpsons movie does seem like a good place to end it. However many years later there was episode 500 I think and The Simpsons themselves moved to a nearby small town to getaway from Springfield, but then Springfield just move themselves over to that town and took over so that's something else that happened later on but oh well.

    My pet theory is that Springfield is located in Virginia. It's history goes back all the way to colonial times and Virginia was one of the first British colonies in the Americas. Furthermore Jebediah Springfield once attempted to assassinate George Washington, who was from Virginia. Flash several decades and Monty's grandad Colonel Burns owned slaves which indicates that Springfield must have been in the south where slavery was legal. And considering how Virginia saw a lot of action during the Civil War, its no surprise that there were battles found at and around Springfield. Also Virginia is a coastal state, which makes sense since Springfield has a port with access to the sea. Then there's the fact that Virginia has an army base, navy base and air force base, all of which have came up and played a part in certain episodes.

Rel-X (from NYC, duuuh, not D'oh!), and two guests there..legendary punk guitarist Dez Cadena(Black Flag and Misfits particularly) and the incredibly beautiful vocalist of NJ band 'Banner of Hope'; looking over and naming every (at the time) character we could name.

    I’d visit the Simpsons and get acquainted with them; after that, I’d take them on separate adventures.
    For Bart:
    -See a movie at the Aztec Theater
    -Do some parasailing on Lake Springfield
    -Pull several pranks on Milhouse
    -Set off a series of events that gets Springfield Elementary School closed for a year
    For Lisa:
    -Spend some time at the library
    -Tour Fort Springfield and Olde Towne Springfield
    -Buy her a new saxophone at the music store
    -Go to a school concert at a gazebo in the park and hear her saxophone solo
    For Marge:
    -Go to the Springfield Mall and buy her a new wardrobe
    -Do some painting in the park
    -Attend services at the PresbyLutheran church
    -Do some baking
    -Plant a potato garden
    -Give her lots of hugs and a shoulder to cry on as she always has to keep everything together yet she clearly needs to get things out of her system
    For Maggie:
    -Play in the park
    -Take her to a Chuck E Cheese type restaurant
    -Tour a play doh factory
    -Get the other babies out of the Ayn Rand Daycare Center
    All three kids:
    -Attend a taping of the Krusty the Clown show
    For Homer:
    -Bowl several games at the bowling alley
    -Go to Moe’s and help Moe in several shenanigans
    -Go up in the helicopter with Barney for a tour of Springfield
    -Go to the power plant, hang with Carl and Lenny, find several interns to take the blame for one of Homer’s incidents at work, and find a way to keep Smithers and Burns at bay
    After that, I would spend some with Ned Flanders as he would be pretty cool to hang out with despite his rather intense religiousity. Once that is done, I’d have to do at least a few capers with Mr. Burns and/or Fat Tony as that would be the only way to keep Smithers and Burns at bay while I was at the plant with Homer. If I managed to keep my sanity and not go to jail; I’d consider having a second home there.

    Well , the tongue was taken when the body was exhumed and the dust from the depledted body of 200 years causes a dense cloud that made everybody in the room cough and grope for a place to get out of the debris. Meanwhile the caretaker during the confusion took the silver tougue but he was found out by Lisa. It was like comparing the rumor that Napoleion was fed asenic by the English authorities but when the opened his tomb in 1978-79 they found that his body was still intact due to the prsevative properities of the arsenic. A clipping of his hair proved he was poisoned. Another comparision question is was Kennedy given a toupee after he was shot from the front in Dealy plaza when the limo stopped. If they exhumed his body and there was no toupee then it is him. If there is a body with a scalp then it is probably J.D. Tippitt because Tippit bore a resemblannce to Kennedy and nobody took the time to get the remains of his scalp from the area he was shot in. (Lisa tougue

    Why wasn't the episode where they go to "the outlands" the episode where the simpsons are banished to the outlands then everyone jobs the simpsons and it becomes the new Springfield at the end of the episode included?

    Good ol Jeb also started Whacking Day
    Lisa Claims there's no record of Jebediah Springfield before 1796, But this just proves, she is not a very good student, and does not know her history. As it is established in season 4,(Whacking Day) that Jebediah Springfield took part in the battle of Ticonderoga. This was in NY, on May 10th, 1775. So Yes Lisa there is a record of him. You just made it all up.
