I love the fact they dedicated 10% of the episode to this one joke and kept delivering iconic zingers
"....from Chim-pan-a to chim-pan-zee" has made me laugh for 20 something years.
That's the most underrated line in this.
I have been singing "help me Dr zaius" for decades
@@jedijones how? It’s the only line from this people actually quote, so it’s the highest rated line from this
I always thought it was from chimp and ape to chimpanze
@@trjb1767 Same.
The guy who came up with "chimpan-A to chimpan-Z" deserves an award
I owe him my life
Simpson's writer David Cohen came up with that particular line.
@@Quadcopter101I Iove that guy💛
"The word underpants is 20% more funny than underwear"
But good lord I was just watching this wishing I had never seen it before just to not expect it coming and laugh myself silly, still did💛
Which specific writes would this be?
@@Quadcopter101I tore a quad laughing at this scene!
Just the fact that Phil Hartman absolutely nailed the high note during the “I CAN SING!” part of the musical is absolutely astounding.
He was so damn good.
Phil NEVER missed 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
That wasn’t a high note but okay
And he can play the piano too!
@@maxalvarez5223It’s an F. That’s pretty high for a baritone, especially one who isn’t a trained singer.
Can we all travel to the alternate universe where Phil Hartman not only had a stable, healthy marriage but also lived long enough to voice Zapp Brannigan?
Was he going to be Zapp? Obviously I wish Phil lived a happy and healthy life, but I do love Billy West as Zapp. Both shows are just bangers.
@@TBrizzle01he was supposed to play Zapp, and West has said he's doing a hartman impression as Zapp
Or just a universe without Andy Dick
@@brianh1546no newsradio. No universe
@@brianh1546A world without Brynn Hartman. Coke didn't kill Phil, Brynn did.
I love the fact that they just decide to put the whole episode on pause just for this joke. Worth it XD
So THAT’S where Family Guy learned that…
I would pay money to see this.
Me too.
+Father Time So would I.
So would Mike Pence.
Its a perfectly cromulent musical.
right?!!!!
The "I LOVE YOU, DOCTOR ZAIUS!" at the end kills me every time.
I come back to this video every now and then and I always forget it's there
@@cornjeebus same, I always remember "ChimpanA to ChimpanZee" as being the best part and then that one shows up at the end and just kills me
Lies again? Face Botox
They got this from Amadeus
@Craig Ward I had to come back too. It's crazy how he ( Troy McClure) had a fish fetish before Kanye West (Gay Fish).
Can we just appreciate for a second that Troy's agent is voiced by Jeff Goldblum
Holly shit
Goldblum….. finds a way.
Wow. Thanks for this fact.
Nice!
Was he credited?
Honestly I would pay good money to see this whole musical😂😂
You and me both. I'll get started on the costumes & sets...
Now we just need to get Hans Zimmer to recreate the music...
Who wouldn’t?

That absolutely cracks me up.
"DR. ZAIUS, DR. ZAIUS!!"

You have to wonder what type of illegitimate theatre Homer has been watching
that bear in the car going around in a circle
Ubbo-Sathla - no, that's ballet!
The-ater*
An all bear production of The Importance of Being Earnest?
Cats 2019 the movie?
"Troy, ever hear of Planet of the Apes?"
"uhhh the movie or the planet?"
This is why the 90s Simpsons were so great
That feels like a very Futurama joke for some reason
@@tiffanielafleur6597 The main writers of Futurama were working most heavily on The Simpsons during these seasons, 7 and 8.
i always loved the tongue and cheeck implication that hollywood has like extra secret space knowledge
That line had a Mandela effect on me, for years I thought Troy said, "You mean the Apes or the Planet?"
"You're starring as the human"
"It's a part I was born to do, baby"
The writing of this musical that they made up for one episode has more creativity and comedy in it than entire seasons of newer Simpsons.
My dumps have more creativity
The first part of the musical is a cover of Falcos "rock me amadeus"
Right on!
justakuma no shit sherlock
Christopher Ponce some people didn’t know asshole
This play has everything.
I love legitimate the8er
RIP Phil Hartman

Aye.

I blame Andy Dick fuck that asshole
Fun fact: In Universal Orlando, in the Kwik-E-Mart store, this plays on the two TVs in the store, looping the same clips every ~28 minutes and making the poor people working inside go absolutely senile with You'll Never Make A Monkey Out Of Me playing nonstop in their heads for all eternity?
Please help Ive only been working here for a month
Imagine working in the restaurant in the Dr. Seuss Landing, where that train goes through. 😫 that would literally drive me INSANE
It's gotten so bad you started watching it in your free time.....
I remember cracking up on the breakdance part but the beat is dope
Ruben Dominguez lol right?
RIP Falco!
😂😂😂 especially as young kid, but even so today
Amadeus by Falco.
When this episode first aired...breakdancing was everywhere so now...It's nostalgic and hilarious!
A subtler gag in this masterpiece of a sequence, but I always loved how annoyed Dr. Zaius looked when the nurse hid behind him. 😂
The side eye is beautiful 😂
@@djpower8791 yessss
or how he looks completely stone-faced when the other apes are "worshipping" him
@@davidnissim589 trueeee
It's weird but the ape nurse has a very sexy voice! LOL!
“Can I play the piano anymore?” “Of course you can.” “Well I couldn’t before.”
Haha
jr2280 you forgot the shook face afterwards lol 😮
And yet, he did so quite well.
That's an old vaudeville gag - absolutely classic.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@thexalon Which shows how you can rip stuff off for comedy and still be brilliant. At least The Simpsons writers of the '90s could. Not so easy to do.
This is proof that you can make a musical out of anything, and it can still be really good if you put your heart into it.
Predator: The Musical
the big main song is "Get To The Choppa"
That might actually be true, but I think the point of this joke was the opposite.
All the predators' songs are just instrumentals consisting of whistles and clicks
Who else came for the “Dr. Zaius Dr. Zaius” bit?
Ooooooo Dr. Zaius!

- Celebrity cameos that aren't just "Hey, look at this guy we got to apear on the show, isn't that crazy?!"
- Troy McClure
- Clever writing going hand in hand with absolute nonsense
- Fireworks, flames and/or explosions out of nowhere
- References to works of fiction or historical events that actually matter
- Song breaks
Fuck, I miss oldschool Simpsons
Nothing in old school simpsons is nonsense, dumbass. Jist cuz you may not understand some of it doesn't change the fact everything was meticulously thought out and planned. Nothing was left to chance.
Old Simpsons had dumb cameos too. Peter Frampton, Smashing Pumpkins, the Rolling Stones, even Paul and Linda McCartney were some dumb cameos just to have cameos.
The one *everyone* missed was in the beginning of this very clip. Mac Parker, Troy's agent, was voiced by an uncredited Jeff Goldblum.
@@MrParkerman6 I know it's been a year, but this is pretty ridiculous. Not only is it laughable to imply that something in an animated show could be "left up to chance" but you also clearly didn't understand my entire point regarding the term "nonsense". Oldschool Simpsons, while funny, creative and well-written as probably never an animated sitcom before or after, had their fair share of absolute nonsense and were richer for it. In this very clip you have breakdancing apes, in "Cape Feare" you have Sideshow Bob repeatedly stepping on rakes to enhance the runtime of the episode (not making this up, that's the genuine reason), in "Duffless" you have Chief Wiggum explode after colliding with a tree, and the entire conception of the Sea Captain was because the writers wanted to have a character using "sea talk" for no good reason other than that they thought it was funny. None of these things make sense outside of the show's universe but the show is much funnier because of it. Something being nonsensical doesn't make it bad, as Lewis Carroll, Terry Pratchett and yes, oldschool Simpsons writers will happily attest.
@@nopejoeandangie Hahahaha peter Frampton's bit was brilliant with the talkbox "do you feel...
Like . We. Do"
😂😂
After being casted as the "human" his reply of "the part i was born to play" was a nice subtle joke
xD
'I hate every ape I see, from chimpan A to chimpanzee' may be the greatest line in the entire show
Back when the Simpsons was on most peoples' personal schedule to go out of their way to watch.
Also, RIP to Phil Hartman. He provided great voices for minor characters on the Simpsons. Show really hasn't been the same.
“Really hasn’t been the same?” It died 20 years ago. It’s been absolute garbage ever since then.
@@stevarino1989 It all went downhill after that panda rape episode.
@@stevarino1989 exactly. Hasn't been the same for over 20 years
The rapid fire pace of these jokes with all of them landing so well is astounding. Peak Simpsons at its absolute best.
I don't think anyone realizes how genius this is.
Yeah no one realizes it, I guess that's why it became one of the most popular bits of The Simpsons, since its debut!
@@Wis_Dom /s
I'm still caught up on the Chimpan-A to Chimpan-Z line.
Oh, I think I do.
We're all asking for this.
1:44 I love that "Oh my God! I was wrong! It was Earth all along" so much.
You're also lazy!
From Chimpan A to Chimpan Z!
Hahahaha that's gold!
*HE CAN TALK, HE CAN TALK, HE CAN TALK, HE CAN TALK..... I CAN SIIIIIIING*
10/10
Oh help me Dr. Zaius!
"I love you Dr Zaius"??? Not QUITE how it happened in the Original lol
butcher bane I know! Soooo funnny!
Is this a parody of a song I heard something similar on the radio I thought?
"Rock Me Amadeus" by Falco
Rich Hart lol hilarious
Well thank god it's just a parody.
Phil Hartman was one of the most versatile actors EVER. GOAT.
Like Jay Bauman once said, he was funny even whenever he was just standing there not doing anything.
Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure were such legendary characters, you left us too soon, Phil.
Dr. Marvin Monroe too!
He didn't leave us. He was taken.
There is now an entire generation that has grown up watching "The Simpsons" and yet probably has no idea who Troy McClure is.
feel sorry for them to be honest
I grew up in the 90s watching the Simpson's and I was never quite sure who he was portraying . I figured just Hollyweird guys in general
I always thought they were parodying Troy Donahue. He was a generic, middle of the road movie star from the sixties who was washed up by the end of that decade and relegated to guest starring on crappy TV shows.
@@sardonicus76 you are right, I looked it up. Doug McClure and Troy Donahue and a dash of Phil Hartman makes up the Troy McClure character. I know who Hartman was but never heard of the other two guys.
Saaaad. :(
Bono should've invested his money in THIS instead of that Spider-Man musical!
Agreed.
Ah, yes that small Irish creature.
"The movie or the planet?" This bit just starts and ends hysterical 😂 RIP Phil Hartman!
Now that line IS underrated. I've been watching this episode for about 20 years, but I only noticed it this year.
This was just great writing by people who knew what funny is. Hartman also had the perfect voice for this character like what he says the movie or the planet.
I loved Troy in such films as Gladys the groovy mule and give my remains to Broadway, but this is his greatest role in my opinion
Simpsons taught me more than school ever did. Seriously, whenever a historical question or fact comes up I'm always like "simpsons referenced that" and reenact the scene to all who'll listen. I'd never seen planet of the apes before this either, I was like 8 or 9 years old
I probably saw this episode as a kid hundreds of times. I watched it for the first time in 20 years and I could still remember that song. This is when The Simpsons were the best thing on TV
Dim Jong Un back around 1985 my sister had “Rock Me Amadeus” on constant replay but I still remember this version better!
It makes you wonder if Phil was still alive how different the Simpsons would be today.
ilikethecokev2 I think the show would definitely better than what it is now. Also, before he died, Phil was actually wanting to make a live action movie where he would play Troy McClure. That would've been interesting to see.
Y'know, come-to-think-of-it: The Simpsons DID start to go downhill around the time of Hartman's death... "To the guy who watched The Simpsons back in 1994 who won't admit the damn thing isn't funny anymore!" -Stewie Griffin
Eh, knowing Fox, they would have destroyed Troy McClure and Lionel Hunts, just like they did to the rest of the characters in the Simpsons. Phil died before the Simpsons went down hill, so his characters are remember a lot more fondly, because Fox didn't get a chance to destroy them. If Phil didn't get killed by his crazy wife, we would have gotten a different voice actor for Zapp Brannigan. One voice actor couldn't save the dumpster fire known as the "modern day Simpsons".
I don't think he ever wrote for the show so it probably wouldn't make much difference
@@l.salisbury1253
Meh, I'd chalk that up to coincidence. The reason it went downhill is because all the brilliant comedic minds who wrote all these jokes were gone., The people who replaced them just haven't been as good.
The Simpsons at its best! The composer, Alf Clausen, was fired recently. That's sad. BTW, that's Jeff Goldblum as the agent on the phone.
Simpsons' golden age at it's best
I've watched this for decades and only just realised that his agent is voiced by, err, none other than, uhm, Jeff, err, Goldblum. Yes.
Ernest Timmons and now, I cannot un-hear it!
Oh shit!
Life, uh, finds a way.
Troy's agent was MacArthur Parker voiced by Jeff Goldblum. If that's not a Weird Al Yankovic reference, I don't know what is.
I never knew that. Now I can't unhear it!
I can even hear the patented Goldblum Pause
What next? The agent getting Troy to appear in a musical based on The Elephant Man? Er ...
WOW! that's actually incredible, how did I never know that
davincent98 Would've been funnier with "Uh" and "Um" every few words.
The creaking of the pulleys moving the statue prop is a great little touch.
This is better than a movie - WHY?!
Of course-it's legitimate the-a-ter
the look from Dr. Zaius after Troy says, I love you Dr. Zaius is both heartwarming and disturbing!
I’ve had the “Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius” stuck in my head for several years now
He can talk! He can talk! I can Siiiiiiing!
Worthy of a Tony!
Oh, help me Dr. Zaius!
This brings back memories. I had a CD called Songs in the Key of Springfield with a bunch of Simpsons musical bits and this was one of them along with "Baby on Board" and "Stonecutters".
R.I.P to the great Phil Hartman. So, much talent gone too soon
This is one of those scenes that I remember watching (and laughing) so vividly even though it was like 20 years ago
Honestly one of my favourite Simpsons moments in the whole show
Can I play the piano anymore?
Of course you can!
Well I couldn’t before!
Everyone else:
[surprised Pikachu face]
That’s a vaudeville joke that was old when the Three Stooges dads were young 😂
In this day and age, this would actually happen lol.
Maybe it'll be a prediction to one.
Were the 90's that different?
so why hasn't it?
We all love legitimate theatre....
No I think the songs would offend someone.
The guy randomly break dancing gets me every time 🤣
I’m surprised Broadway or off broadway hasn’t jumped on this, I’d be the first in line for tickets 🎫
That is actually a brilliant idea
“This play has everything!”
It really does!
given the trend of broadway this is not out of the realm of possibilities.
this could be in 'off Broadway' if such a thing still exists,anyway -
If they can make a play out of the "Wizard of Oz" and mormonism, yeah it could work
King Kong was already on Broadway. Seems like the next logical move.
This little 2 minute segment is better than an entire season of Modern Simpsons.
Hi, I'm Troy McClure. You may remember me from such shows as The Simpsons season 3, and season 4...
I wish youtube had the option for a sadface. Disliking the comment isnt quite right. Your joke was very funny. It just also makes me sad :(.
...Dr.seuss.
The music in this used to be so so good.
You have to admit.
This legit would make a great Broadway musical.
It would be legitimate the-a-ther.
It would be legitimate theater
"The movie or the planet?" So funny, so short and subtle.
I must have been an idiot when I was a kid, because I never realized Jeff Goldblum voiced Troy McClure's agent.
I remember seeing this before I saw the actual Planet of the Apes movie, and then I finally rented it and thought it was gonna be a light hearted musical. Damn was I wrong.
Back from the time when the Simpsons was the best show on TV.
The glorious about-face from "you'll never make a monkey out of me" to "oh my god! I was Wrong!" is amazing.
Wow, he really CAN sing! And I'm not talking about Troy McClure.
Hartman was also a skilled illustrator and designer. He designed a lot of album covers (especially for Crosby, Stills, and Nash, hence David Crosby's appearance as Lionel Hutz's AA sponsor) and according to Jon Lovitz spent a lot of time at the Groundlings drawing when he wasn't performing. Genuinely a modern Renaissance man.
Zaius' deadpan expression throughout the whole song is what fucking cracks me up.
Yeah, he looks like he’s just bored and annoyed with the other apes dancing around him
Phillip's wife can rot in the ground 4 murdering this great man Rest in Peace Phillip Hartman.
Right. The bitch robbed the world of a comic genius. This is my favorite Simpsons clip ever.
eh he was ok
By accounts, she had a serious drug problem and was high at the time of the murder. The exact details are sketchier, but she was badly messed up.
She was abusive emotionally per Joe Rogan, and Phil was a very nice, supportive guy
Andy Dick gave her a bunch of drugs that sent her spiralling into a relapse. John Lovitz grabbed him and smashed his face into the bar at a club after he joked about it
The thought of Phil Hartman in a booth singing these lyrics really tickles me
“I love you Dr Zaius!”
The part where the ape break dances has to be one of the best parts of the entirety of the Simpsons golden age
This clip has everything.
This Dr zayeus song has been stuck in my head since i first heard it back in the 90s
I've had this song stuck in my for a long time as a kid, and its back again so thank you, it's the only thing I actually liked being stuck.
This was the live-action Troy McClure movie we should have gotten but didn’t deserve.
That RHYME was lazy, Dr. Zaius!
dude literally had 3 people walking circles around him and bowing after that, maybe the apes have lower rhyming standards?
Well, he is mostly just standing around while the other apes repeat his name over and over.
Troy McClure finally stars in a quality production
This was Troy's finest work.
In-universe and out. Phil Hartmann, rip.
People have been waiting literal decades to see this musical. Come on!!
🎵I can sing🎵 Gets me everytime!
Watching this when it first aired back in the 90's, we knew it was gold.
When I'm feeling depressed, I watch this awesome clip and laugh my ass off.
RIP Phil Hartman and FALCO. Both died in 1998.
The funniest parody they ever did by a mile. I just wish I'd had a chance to see the actual movie first. I ended up seeing it for the first time maybe a year later, I was 13 or 14 I think. So, it kinda made the ending a lot less of a shocker.
I can't really blame THEM for that, I mean, the movie was almost thirty years old by then, FIFTY now. Though I wish all the box sets of those movies and VHS/DVD/Blu-Ray covers didn't put the statue on their covers and in their menus and shit. That's kind of a dick move.
I'm not saying the movie needs a spoiler alert, but they shouldn't so blatantly go the other way, either.
I am so heartbroken that this doesn't acutally exist.
That's Jeff Goldblum as his agent on the phone!
What? 😮
Is anyone else disappointed that we don’t get to see the entire initial number.
0:20 lol the fox theater being closed. these early simpsons eps are GOLD. they squeezed as many jokes as they could into every second
This is one of my favourite Simpsons songs along with the Kwik E Mart song, We Put the Spring in Springfield and Kids vs Adults
The funny thing is that Phil Hartman used to play charlton Heston on snl
I was born in 1998 and I grew up watching all of these episodes on DVD & I never knew “Amadeus” was a real song. After hearing the original, I can safely say “Dr. Zaius” is the obvious better version.
I desperately want this to be a real show!
I lived in NYC for many years and never went to see musicals/Broadway shows. If they had actually been good and fun like this, I'd have gone all the time.
It's amazing, I saw this episode as a kid twenty years ago and I'm now singing this to my new born daughter.
Same. Me and my kids sing it together all the time.
I like how they left out the damn to make this seem more like a general audience thing
