Best Swedish Film
How can I access the scene where Lisa wins the award and Maggie is dressed as Death on the DVD?

Song in Barney Gumble's movie
What's the name of the song in Barney Gumble's movie? --85.1.204.190 09:38, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


 * The song in the movie is an aria called "Un Bel di Vedremo", from the opera Madame Butterfly. I tried to add this opera reference (amongst others), but they get deleted. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

DVD whitewash...
I think there should be a mention of the fact that, in addition to Groenings absence, the DVD comentary makes no mention of this at all. I mean to see the simpsons tv in the open credits with out groenings name and hear no comentary on it was weird. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.149.42.52 (talk) 06:44, 24 December 2006 (UTC).

While this is true, the line in the article saying this was the first commentary Groening did not take part in is false. He had missed a handful of episode commentaries in this and previous box sets for innocuous reasons. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.72.107.10 (talk) 22:50, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:SIMPSONS SEASON6 DISC3-3.jpg

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Plot summary
So me and DangerousJXD were discussing the plot section of this article, specifically my additions to it, and I thought to move the discussion here, rather than have an edit war. Right now I'm largely okay with the plot; it's short, to the point, and it mentions Burns, who I feel is the episode's main source of conflict and therefore worth mentioning. One more change I would like to make is to the last line, my reason being as follows:

The original line implies that Marge's line about how she knew Homer would "vote for the stupidest film" if she put him on the judge panel was what got him to change his decision, while disregarding the role that Sherman's advice on how "there may be more to life than seeing a man get hit by a football" might have played. I feel that, at the very least, Sherman should also be mentioned there. It would only be two more words. Jaydude1992 (talk) 11:28, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

"Getting the program pulled"
That's not encyclopedic language. I would suggest replacing it with "make the others remove the program" or something similar. Glades12 (talk) 17:26, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
