    Rewrite Classic episodes

    Ok this is pretty simple. Three people will rewrite a good or not so good simpsons episode and we will all vote for the winner. The script must follow the basic plotline and events but with diffrent jokes and diffrent ways the events happen.

    Ok the first episode to be rewritten will be Homers Enemy. so start when you want and hurry becuause only three scripts will be submitted.

    I think it would be very difficult to rewrite a classic episode with same plot yet different jokes. Maybe that's because I'm usually more of a dramatist and only write a specific type of humor. Either way, I'd like to see where this thread goes...I'm just letting you know that the task of rewriting a classic episode will probably prove challenging to most.

    Cool thread; but I'm a little confused about it. Do we re-write Homer's Enemy to make it worse than it already is, or just re-write it to any style we want? I thought we were meant to re-write 'classic' episodes? ;-/

    But why we would want to re-write Homer's Enemy to make it 'better'? It's a great episode. Or are we making it Scully-era worse?

    1. Homer: Badman

    7. Rosebud
    8. Scenes from the Class Struggle in Springfield

    No no just rewrite it how you would write it. Your pretty much just testing yourself to see how good you are compared to some of the actual Simpsons writers.

    It'd be a better idea to rewrite post-classic episodes, since some people here might actually be able to make it better.

    If this is still open I'd like to do it.
    So here it is..........

    'HOMER'S ENEMY"
    Simpson Home, Homer is complaining about the rising risks of the donut costs.
    Homer: Oh, this is hard.
    Marge: What's hard, dear?
    Homer: Doing nothing! HAHA!
    Marge: (Groan)
    Just then the Simpsons hear the news and see that Kent Brockman is doing a special of "Kent's People."
    Kent Brockman: And we welcome Frank Grimes forever, and ever, and ever.
    Lisa: Frank Grimes? I've never heard of him.
    Homer: Oh, yeah, Mr. Burns said that Frank Grimes is going to be a supervisor in my part of the Nuclear Power Plant.
    Marge: Oh, Homer. You'll make another friend.....lets just hope he's not like, um....Lenny and Carl.
    Homer: As if. Well time to go to sleep.
    Marge: Homer, its 8 A.M.!
    Homer: Well, then....give me some syrup!
    Nuclear Power Plant, Frank Grimes is introducing himself to Homer.
    Frank Grimes: Hello Homer, I will be your supervisor.
    Homer: That's cool and all, but how 'bout we just put an old tape in the monitor and have some fun?
    Frank Grimes: No, Homer. We have to do our work.
    Homer: (mumbling) Oh stupid new freak!
    A Week Later......
    Marge: Homer, how is Frank doing supervising Sector 7-G?
    Homer: Well, he is giddy as a schoolgirl, but somehow, I think he doesn't like me.
    (Flashback)
    Nuclear Power Plant Lunchroom, Homer is gobbling down donuts.
    Frank Grimes: What? They put that idiotic oaf in place of our safety? If you ask me, I think I would have fired Homer by now.
    Lenny: Well he has been fired many times, and even quit. So really you'll have no affect on him at all.
    Frank notices Homer missed his beer can and is heading toward the Toxic Acid.
    Frank Grimes: HOMER! NO!
    Homer looks to see him trying to take his beverage away.
    Frank Grimes then throws it toward the wall and it eliminates it, but Mr. Burns walks by and sees the gaping hole.
    Mr. Burns: Who did this to my wall?
    Frank Grimes: I did, sir.
    Mr. Burns: Frank Grimes report to my office.
    Frank Grimes: Yes, sir.
    Frank stares at Homer madly and Homer just smiles, very embarrassed.
    Nuclear Power Plant Safety Station
    Frank Grimes walks in angry at Homer.
    Homer: How's it doing Grimey?
    Frank Grimes: Don't talk to me! Don't even look at me! You got me demoted!
    Homer: But ---
    Frank Grimes: Uh, uh, uh! Don't even speak to me!
    Homer: But we are still friends right?
    Frank Grimes: No, we aren't Homer. Matter of fact, I just don't like you, I hate you!
    Moe's Tavern
    Homer: I can't believe me, the most beloved man in all of Springfield, has an enemy.
    Moe: Well, Homer, maybe you have to get him back. Just try to make him re-promoted.
    Homer: That just might work!
    Simpson Home
    Marge: Homer! You got him demoted? You should know why he hates you!
    Homer: He had other reasons, Marge! He had that I was incompetent, idiotic, and stupid! I also called him Grimey.
    Marge: Homer.
    Homer: Well I figured out a plan, but it isn't ready yet.
    Nuclear Power Plant
    Homer: Mr. Burns! Frank Grimes wants to tell you something!
    Mr. Burns: What the pumpernickel?
    Homer: Look, Grimey, you have to listen to me. Mr. Burns is one his way to congratulate you on how well you have worked!
    Just then Mr. Burns gets there.
    Mr. Burns: What did you want?
    Homer: Ol' Grimes wants to do something for you.
    However, Homer spills his coffee and Frank Grimes slips on it, landing in the Hazardous Electrical Area and is electrocuted.
    Homer: Grimey?
    Simpson home
    Marge: Homer, you did try your best....even if it did result in his death.
    Lisa: Yeah, dad, you'll do better when the next supervisor comes.
    Credits Roll......

    Thanks for your time!
