Simpsons fast-scrolling lists

This page is a compilation of short lists that appeared by scrolling quickly up the screen. There are some great jokes mixed in here (particularly the Rock Bottom Corrections), but normally the only way to spot them was to tape the episode and freeze-frame it on playback.

Not any more! We bring you all the lists in a static format.

Krusty's Birthday Buddies

In Radio Bart, Bart is among the Krusty's Birthday Buddies: a long list of names that scrolled very quickly down the TV screen. Somehow, Bart was able to see his name in the list (I've highlighted it in bold below). Several names in the list are people who worked on the show at the time (e.g. Ken Keeler).

Kent Brockman's gay list

In Bart's Comet, Kent Brockman hosts the news bulletin detailing the rocket's failure to destroy the comet.

Over, the years, a news reporter learns things that for one reason or another, he simply cannot report. It doesn't seem to matter now, so the following people are gay...

The following list scrolls by very quickly. If you think these names look familiar, you'd be correct - all these people work on The Simpsons! John Swartzwelder (the episode's writer) and Bob Anderson (the director) are absent for some reason...
