From: The Simpsons
Genre: Cartoons, Television
Who said it?: Comic Book Guy
The story behind the quote: The quote comes from The Simpsons’ very own Jay Albertson. You may not know him by his birth name but you probably know him better as Comic Book Guy, the overweight proprietor of the Android’s Dungeon comic book store.
The quote originally came from the episode “The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show.” As the Itchy & Scratchy showed the episode introducing a new character, Poochie, Comic Book Guy was the first to immediately bash the new character on message boards.
Unfortunately, I can’t find the exact clip on YouTube. However, since the phrase has become Comic Book Guy’s catchphrase, I was able to get this clip…
And, just in case the clip gets yanked off YouTube, here’s a pic of the quote:
Geek wisdom: People have opinions. Some of these opinions will be in direct contrast from your own. You may like a particular television show or episode while the entire world may see things differently and hate it with a passion. These variations can be due to a huge number of reasons.
But it’s not really important to know the reason for these differences. What is important is to know that there are going to be different points of view on the same topic and you’re opinion is as valid as the rest of the world.
I’m looking for the Simpsons episode in which comic book guy is casually walking by or something and calls it’s the worst episode ever. I’m not talking about the actual “worst episode ever” it’s a really messed up episode I think and comic book guy calls it the worst episode ever out of nowhere and all I keep finding on the Internet is results for the itchy scratchy and Poochie show or the worst episode ever. Please help
