The Simpsons, Mad About You, and the Simpsons

In this episode Shawn's dad gets laid off at Christmas time, starting the oh-so-emo, and long lasting, narrative that Shawn is poor. Cory vows to get Shawn a present, but that act of kindness proves harder than it sounds.

It’s certainly a BMW moment we’ve remembered for decades…except for Rider who for some reason can’t remember this episode AT ALL.

Will overheard something on set that changed his acting strategy forever and we do some ‘90s trivia that the hosts may or may not know.

It’s fitting that this is a Christmas BMW episode because it's the gift that keeps on giving.
