Thread: Detector on Simpsons

    Detector on Simpsons

    I've been watching some Hulu and did not know in the last episode of season 9 Bart and Lisa spend the sub plot detecting. It reminds me of when I happened upon They Would Be Giants' song about detecting, also 20 yrs late. Any other detecting in pop culture???

    I remember the Detecting song from They Might be Giants. I always liked it...will have to find it on youtube or something later today.

    I just searched google and found a short movie from 2017 called The Metal Detector. Might have to watch it...maybe...

    I just watched it, Jared...worth the 5 min...if only to see his detecting style

    Dave, I've watched all the episodes a few times. Where can we watch it now? My family loves it too, even tho they don't get the detecting inside jokes.

    That's hysterical, Timy! I loved cereal as a kid but fruit loops were my least fav.
