Frodo wakes. ‘Where am I?’
‘In the House of Elrond. It is ten o’clock in the morning. The morning of October the twenty-fourth, if you want to know.’
‘Gandalf!’
‘Yes, I am here. And you are lucky to be here, too, after all the absurd things you have done since you left home.’

If I had to pick Best 5 I’d go:
1. Bart’s Comet
2. Who Shot Mr Burns Pt 1
3. Homie the Clown
4. Marge vs the Monorail
5. Lemon of Troy
Not necessarily my favorite 5 episodes, but probably the best in terms of joke density, animation quality, and story.

I really do think “Bart’s Comet” is the single best Simpsons episode. Some of the best gags, tremendous animation, leverages the entire Springfieldianite cast, and has a nice touching ending (except for Ned’s children who should be deeply ashamed of themselves)

In "Ignition (Remix)," they're listening to a song on the radio, which turns out to be "Ignition (Remix)"
Another thing about Monster Mash is that Monster Mash isn't even the song you're actually listening to, it's a song about another song/dance, it's like Tenacious D's Tribute
Even Monster Mash isn't *explicitly* about Halloween. Bing Crosby's The Headless Horseman directly discusses Halloween and is pretty underrated, though

Shadow Ticket is so great. Thinking it'll replace Inherent Vice/Vineland as my recommended intro to Pynchon. Streamlines all his pet themes/tones/images into their most accessible form
