35 Years Ago Today, The Simpsons Aired an Episode So Good That Matt Groening Called It His Favorite Ever

Can you believe it’s been 35 years?! On December 6th, 1990, The Simpsons gave us the incredible “Bart the Daredevil” episode. As a huge fan, I always think about that Season 2 episode – especially Homer’s attempt to jump the Springfield Gorge! It’s become one of the most memorable moments in the whole series, and it’s actually Matt Groening’s personal favorite too! He told Entertainment Weekly ten years into the show’s run that it was the episode for him, all because of that hilarious, iconic Homer fail.
