500 Episodes? 23 Years? D'oh! Feb 17th 2012, 17:17 Bart Simpson first uttered, "Ay caramba," soon after George Bush became president -- as in George Herbert Walker Bush. As in pre-Facebook, pre-Google, and heck, pre-Internet. But not pre-donuts. Mmm, donuts. It may be hard to believe, but The Simpsons will air its 500th episode this Sunday. Who would have thought when it began 23 years ago that the show would become such a cultural powerhouse? There are even Simpsons rides at Universal Studios in Hollywood and Florida. I think they are great, although I lament the Back to the Future rides they replaced. And I find the computer-generated animation that the rides use a bit weird. The gag-stuffed queues for the attractions are almost as good as the rides themselves. Read my full review of The Simpsons Ride. Then enjoy the 500th episode. But don't have a cow, man.
