In the official Simpsons episode guide, the christmas episode is listed as the first episode.

This was the first televised 30-minute episode, true. However, the pilot episode - which by definition means it was the first episode of the actual series - was none other than Bart the Genius.


I had the Bart writing on the chalkboard shirt. I think it said 'I will not waste chalk' or something. I remember the first day I wore it to school was the same day some kid's house was burnt down so nobody cared about my awesome shirt. It was a bad day all around.

That sucks. What an awesome shirt.

i love jays new sig

i had an Air Bartman shirt which portrayed Bart as Michael Jordan. I recall how freakish looking the Simpson looked in their Tracy Ullman mini-episodes as compared to the Simpsons of today.

The Batman shirts were a must, I didn't get mine till a week before summer vacation and I got sick and missed the last week. By the time school started back up it wasn't as big a deal anymore and I was still a loser...
