The Simpsons is a ripoff of...
 
.....Alvin and the Chipmunks

Bart is Alvin, always getting in trouble
Simon is Lisa, the smart one
Theodore is Homer, eating all the time
Dave is Marge, the maternal figure

yup. Too much free time at work.

Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!
Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!
Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!

Alvin! Simon! Theodore!

Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!
Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!
Doot. Doot. Do-do-do-doot!

/definitely too much time at work...

Ok smarty-pants...where does Maggie fit in then? Huh???

:D

World's King 12-17-2003 12:34 PM

Oh My God.

I can't believe you thought we cared.



So, yeah... how does Maggie fit in?

Sho Nuff 12-17-2003 12:54 PM

She doesnt. Thats why shes only spoken 1 word in over a decade.

Cynthetiq 12-17-2003 01:51 PM

it's not like Flintstones and Honeymooners.... I mean THAT'S a blatant ripoff

I always thought that the jetsons reminded me of the flintstones. Just a little more futuristic.

NeverBorn 12-17-2003 02:28 PM

I don't see it..

They were the exact same show just one was in the past and one the future.

The Simpsons evolved from 30 second "shorts" on the Tracey Ullman show.

It's patently NOT a rip-off.


Sheesh...

I can't think of alvin and the chipmunks theme song without accidentally humming the Mac'Guyver theme song.

The chipmunks predate those shorts by many years.

Well, yes, but it was intentional, so..."imitation is the sincerest form of flattery" and all that...

Now I have the fucking Chipmunks song in my head.

"Alvin, Simon...Theodore!"
"Doot...doot..."

Excellent....

Everything that could have been thought up has already been done in some way or another.

Except for different types of exciting, horrible porn.

Stare At The Sun 12-23-2003 05:35 PM

Seriously folks, if you look hard enough, you can find similarities/whatever in anything, noone is original anymore, thats a fact of life. Get over it. If person X ripped of person Y and made a new show or movie out of it, and it was enjoyable, then meh, what does it matter. I won't loose any sleep over it..

PoteMatic 12-23-2003 10:10 PM

ahh ha ha

omg that is the funniest thing i have heard in such a long time.

The Jetsons and the Flintstones are the same show...you can see it with all the spin offs that occur where they meet each other one way or another.

JohnnyRock 12-24-2003 12:38 PM

I think this thread is a blatant ripoff of one I saw on an Alvin and the Chipmonks fan site...
