Darkest Simpsons Moment?

I would say one of the darkest moments was two (I think two) years ago in the Christmas episode. In it Moe tries to kill himself in a variety of ways. One of his attempts was sledding down a hill into ongoing traffic. I actually had a friend in middle school who died (accidentally) the same way. It was really and dark, to me personally, to see them do that.

Yeah, its become a bit of a recurring theme with Moe trying to kill himself during the holidays. In one episode he had his head stuck in an oven with a piece of paper reading 'no funeral' taped to his back. That was pretty dark.
But at the end he decided not to, and brought food to the Simpsons' Christmas dinner with Gary Coleman.

This is true...I confess, I forgot about that part of the episode.
 
From the simpsons Game
Lisa-"I thought the only simpsons game was where we pretended dad wasn't drunk"

unless Homer gets a reboot, and soon, than Homer is just gonna further devolve and eventually it's gonna cause the death of the show

I have to agree with that.
 
^^^^^i can see it now, first they will show homer obviously drunk at home, he will whail on bart for a snide comment or something, eventually he will be shown Drunk n grumpy 24-7 until either he hits Marge, or does worse with Lisa, then the show will end
 
tonights ep:

Homer: sometimes i just wana get on a bus and NEVER come back
Homer: EAT HOBO REMAINS *tosses unclaimed peoples ashes*
Bart:LET ME OUT, I CAN'T BREATHE Homer:He has to get over his fear of coffins sometime

Don't forget, that was in response to the question of how he felt about family arguments about where to go to dinner. I imagine he considers jumping off a bridge when he gets a splinter.
 
Someone/thing attacking Ernest Borgnine and the kids at the abandoned summer camp.

What happened to the rest of the adults, anyway? Did the bear get them in the earlier scene?

Halloween episodes are usually dark but stand-outs

Turns-people-Inside-out gas cloud...yech.

Burns hunting people for sport.

Milhouse falling in the giant blender.
 
Future Homer escapades :

"Whaaaat!? Marge, you were out of town for a whole three days. So I married the girl. I get lonely, too, Marge. I mean, its not like I didn't seriously consider using protection."

(Maggie crawls up in a wedding gown as well)

"OH, so I'm supposed to marry her sister and have her feel left out? Ooooh--the kitchen. Smells like Flanders is golden-brown by now."

( He leaves; Bart looks pleadingly at Marge )

Bart : I seriously think we can make Arlen by tomorrow night, if we drive straight through and use diapers.

Oh yeah, I remember that episode; in a interlude wasn't Borgnine's group stalked by inbred hicks hiding in the bushes on the river bank, as a homage to Deliverance?

Yeah, maybe that's where the other adults went.
 
The episode that sticks out in my mind is the Halloween episode where Bart and Lisa go through the fairytale woodland and lock the door to the three bears' cottage with the bears and Goldilocks inside. She wakes up, runs to the door (finds it locked by Bart and Lisa) and dies a horrible, screaming death at the hands of the three bears. The scene ends when the screams stop and a puddle of blood pours out under the door onto the porch. That's pretty grim.
 
Chief Wiggum: Ok men here's the order of deportations: first will be rounding up your tired, then your poor, then your huddled masses yearning to breath free.

Oh, that's not dark. That's just an accurate satire of today's political climate! :)
 
Dark but also funny: When Krusty calls Tijuana the "happiest place on earth". :lol:


I don't think that's dark at all. Krusty's earnest attempt to atone for the horrors the kids endured at Camp Krusty was an example of the show's earlier period when characters would try to right the worst of the wrongs that occurred by the end of the episode. Certainly the kids seemed to enjoy themselves in Tiajuana.
