I love Australians
 

Bart: [sleepy] Hello?
Bruno: Right! I'm calling all the way from Squatter's Crog, Australia and I want to speak to, er, Dr. Bart Simpson right now.
Bart: Uh...[plugs nose] hold, please.
Bruno: All right, but I don't --
Bart: [low voice] Payroll, Bert Stanton speaking.
Bruno: Oy! I said "Bart Simpson". What kind of a company is this?
Bart: [high voice] Bart Simpson's office.
Bruno: Thank the great good Lord. Look, I was just say --
Bart: One moment please. [hums "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head"]
Bruno: Who do they think I am, some stupid Aussie drongo? Bleedin' yanks, I oughta --
Bart: This is Bart Simpson. Can I help you, ma'am?
Bruno: Yeah, er -- hey! My name is Bruno Drundridge, right? You owe me $900, mate.
Bart: No, you owe _me_ $900!
Bruno: [stammers] I...you...ooh! You're just some punk kid, aren't you? Ooh, you picked the wrong guy to tangle with here, mate.
Bart: [chuckles] I don't think so. You're all the way in Australia.
Hey! I think I hear a dingo eating your baby. [hangs up]

Bruno: Ooh! Ah, that's it. I'm going to report this to me member of parliament. [yells out window] Hey, Gus! I got something to report to you.
[Gus tends his swine]
Gus: That's a bloody outrage, it is! I want to take this all the way to the Prime Minister.
[they go down to a lake]
Hey! Mr. Prime Minister! Andy!
Andy: [floating naked on an inner tube with a beer] Eh, mates! What's the good word?

Marge: "Australia was originally founded as a settlement for British convicts"! Oh, Lisa, watch your camera.
[Lisa turns around to see a group of people reaching for it; they back off sheepishly and turn to another tourist]

The family decide to eat a little at a local pub.
[Bart flicks a pocket knife open and closed repeatedly]
Man: You call that a knife? _This_ is a knife.
Bart: That's not a knife, that's a spoon.
Man: All right, all right, you win, heh. I see you've played Knifey-Spooney before.
Homer: [to bartender] Hey! Give me one of those famous giant beers I've heard so much about.
[bartender puts a huge beer in front of him]
Bartender: Something wrong, yank?
Homer: No. It's pretty big...I guess.
Marge: I'll just have a cup of coffee.
Bartender: Beer, it is.
Marge: No, I said "coffee".
Bartender: "Beer"?
Marge: [slowly] Coff-ee.
Bartender: Be-er?
Marge: C -- O --
Bartender: B -- E --

Man 1: I'll stop them!
[throws a boomerang which skims Bart's hair]
Oh, no! It's coming back this way!
Man 2: That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
Bart: [spying a kangaroo] Hey! We can get away in their pouches.
[tries to climb in]
Ew! It's not like in cartoons.
Homer: Yeah, there's a lot more mucus.

Meanwhile, in a souvenir store...

Lisa: Mom, you said I could have one souvenir, right? Well I want the didgeridoo. [plays it]
Marge: Mmm, that seems very noisy and expensive for a souvenir. Mmm, why don't you get this nice cap? ["Pobody's Nerfect in Australia"] It's clever...just like you. Hmm? Hmm?
Owner: [sweeping a bunch of toads out] Get out, get out! Shoo, shoo. Get out of here, yuck! These bloody things are everywhere. They're in the lift, in the lorry, in the bond wizard, and all over the malonga gilderchuck.
Clerk: They're like kangaroos, but they're reptiles, they is.
Marge: We have them in America. They're called bullfrogs.
Clerk: What? That's an odd name. I'd have called "chazzwazzers".

when will there be a 24 hour simpsons channel?

Simpsons are on right now where i am
:glugglug

I believe that episode of the Simpsons featured a stamp saying:
"Australia - Celebrating 25 Years Of Electricity."
:1orglaugh

Here in the UK, we call it "Sky 1"

I get simpson 6 hours a day with my satellite dish - wish there was a 24hr chanel.

that episode went down like cold vomit over here. But I guess you've got to play on the cliches for for main audience.

ahaha... 20 years actually :)

so warm vomit goes down better?

i guess your country doesn't understand satire?
that very same episode makes fun of americans (for example, the gate says "made with pride in the usa" but it breaks)

they've done it to canada too and i found it hilarious.

Christ. What kind of a stupid question is that?

nothing is holy on the simpsons, thats the beauty of it, but satires of cliches, and not even well grounded ones isn't going to be funny to the people who don't get the cliches (us, because they're based on movies we make like crocodile dundee), im sure it was a laugh a minute to anyone that thinks we drink fosters and live in the bush.
It's not about not taking the jokes on the chin with a good lampooning, we love taking the piss out of ourselves, it's just that if the simpsons made their jokes actually based on our culture the main american audience wouldn't get it, so they have to rely on the funny fictional cliches to get the most laughs.

Consider it an ultimate honor to be "sent up" on the Simpsons. They make fun of the US 90% of the time, but everyone is fair game.

Remember when Brazil got in a huff over that episode in Rio - Homor gets kidnapped, Pepe, kids steal from tourists, and "the Penetrada." How embarrassing it must be to actually protest an episode of the Simpsons.:1orglaugh

there were a lot of funny bits, but it did miss the mark for aussies - i guess what im explaining is - who is going to be able to pay out america better - a guy that lives there or a guy that watches "dude wheres my car?"

lol too right

Australians all let uuuus rejoice for we are young and freeeeeeee
with golden soil and land for.........ah fuck it.

lol, yes but ever notice how they only play new episodes twice a year or so?
