im proud to say yes i have ! it werent because it was crying with laughter or sadness. i cried when homer and marge were talking about how they got bart and what lisas first words were and at the end maggie said "daddy" that was sooo sweet!! ill remember that episode to the day i die!

There are many sentimental moments within the episodes.
The episode that stands out for me was the one where Homer's mother had to leave and at the end of the episode he is just sitting on the bonnet of his car under a star lit sky reflecting.

I love the episode that closes with Lisa playing Baker Street at the end.

Never even come close.... Can't even remember when they tried to make us cry

nope not me either havent seen a episode that hasnt pulled on my heart strings i dont think

I've cried with laughter a couple times.

I Have Cried When Montgomery Got Shot He Is The Best Character In My World

no

No never, it's a comedy with cartoon characters who aren't real.

Yeah I have - books are fiction but they can still make you cry, so why not cartoons? The one where Marge thought Bart had been shoplifting again but he'd actually framed a picture of himself for her. Also, where Lisa and Bart play pee wee hockey together then remember all the memories they have of when they were young and drop their hockey sticks - really sweet!

What's that got to do with anything?

DONT BE PATHETIC ITS A CARTOON!

I came close the other night. I was watching Bart the General (the scene where Bart has just been delivered a right kicking from Nelson and his cronies and he goes to the bathroom to recover). When Homer comes in and finds him begging for help I almost shed a tear, but the subsequent hairdryer gag and Homer's 'code of the schoolyard' platitudes are so good that I couldn't stay upset. The 'don't be pathetic it's a cartoon!' argument is understandable, but if you really want to see how a cartoon can make you weep like fresh operation scars in a hot bath then check out some of the old Fleisher brothers cartoons from the thirties (not the Superman ones or the films, but the more depression orientated ones like 'Somewhere in Dreamland'). They'll have everyone bawling. Well, maybe not everyone, but check then out anyway - they're too often forgotten.

umm fantasy and comedy are all my joy, mags is soooooooo sweet but she says stuff all the time. (well every now and then anyway!)

Why does a cartoon have any less right to be emotive than a film or a book, yes the series is based in comedy but so is Only Fools and Horses and you still feel sad when Uncle Albert died or when they lost all their millions.

no its a comedy cartoon

the epsidoe where bart has to pass his exam or he will be held back a year, and he actually tries really hard but he still got an F. that was emotional. he did pass in the end though. u have to see it and u will see what i mean

No. I haven't, I am not sad enough to cry over The Simpsons.

i agree, you must be super sad to cry over it.


It is a cartoon for petes sake

So you never cried at Bambi? If you didn't then there must be something wrong! Yeah it's a cartoon but they can make you cry... Like movies make you cry too... it's all fictional but it's good if it hits your emotions now nd then...well, those of us who have them....
