Chalmers: Good Lord, what is happening in there?

Skinner: The Aurora Borealis?

Chalmers: The Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within your kitchen?

Skinner: Yes.

Chalmers: May I see it?

Skinner: ....No.

Wiggum: Baloney! I'm not gonna rest until one of us is behind bars... you! You wouldn't happen to know anything about a cigarette truck that got hijacked on route 401?

Fat Tony: What's a truck?

Wiggum: Don't play dumb with me!

Fat Tony: Relax Chief, you seem tense. You know the boy here makes an excellent Manhatten.

Wiggum: sip .. yea. I'm still gonna put you away, y'know.

Fat Tony: Good for you.

I am sorry to hear of the hijacking. To make up for this Laramie Tobacco has sent a new truck to Springfield, and the driver has been specifically instructed to ignore all stop signs and crosswalks.

Nelson: So burn the flag if you must, but before you do, you better burn a few other things! You better burn your shirt and your pants! Be sure to burn your TV and car! Oh yes, and don't forget to burn your house! Because none of those things could exist without six white stripes, seven red stripes, and a hell of a lot of stars!

Bart, is it wrong to steal a loaf of bread to feed your starving family? Well suppose you've got a large starving family, is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them? And what if your family don't like bread? They like...cigarettes. Now, what if, instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away. Would that be a crime, Bart?

Is anyone else watching the show on RTE2 right now? It seems like they're airing the remastered classic episodes, because they're all cropped and filtered to hell. Needless to say, I'm not a fan.

Season 8 ain't quite classic but they've started editing and censoring the **** out of the episodes.

No, it's not that. I mean the overall appearance of the episode (the Beer Baron episode was pretty much intact). It's supposed to be in HD, but from appearances, it looks as if they couldn't locate all the original film negatives, as some bits here and there looked upscaled from a tape based source. Not to mention the fact that it was cropped for widescreen which just ruins the composition and gives it a claustrophobic appearance because of that. It seems to be based on what FX in the US is showing, as that was announced that the show would be presented in that way when it was going to appear there.

So, best buy up old DVD boxsets, since HD won't add much anyway.
But forcing old stuff into widescreen is not always the fault of the people who edited the boxset, sometimes the TV station are the assholes to blame.
It can't be cropped to fit, so it gets stretched, and progressively more so towards the edges of the picture. Some cropping does occur. So everything looks wrong.
Just show it in the right format and live with the black bars on the side, FFS!
RTE was 10 years late to the widescreen and later HD party, so now they're doing it twice as hard as anyone else.
