Watching the Simpson's episode with Homer at the World Trade Center is..... disquieting
I recently got the Season 8 (or is it 9?) Simpsons, and this is the first episode. I am watching it now.

How odd to watch now, post 9-11....

They did a pretty good job drawing the area, too.

8. The tribute to Al Feldstein-era Mad Magazine was nice, too
If seeing the WTC in TV shows weirds you out, you should see Sports Night, where the characters worked in the WTC and many episodes begin with a nice fat shot of the towers...

The twin towers were featured prominently in the opening credits.

10. "Marge, New York is a hellhole, and you know how I feel about hellholes!"
"If you do not remedy this malparkage, your car will be thrown in the East River at your expense."

"All I remember is giving a guest lecture at Villanova... or maybe it was a street corner."

Actually, that's one of the best episodes ever... to bad it will never be shown on TV reruns again.
