Don't know if it's been asked, but how often did Homer get hurt for laughs in the classic era? I ask because a common complaint of post-classic Simpsons is that Homer gets hurt too often. But of course it happened in the classic era, like the famous Springfield Gorge scene. What are other moments of gags in the classic era of Homer getting hurt?

I was thinking about how in cartoons, it's really only male characters that get cartoonishly injured. It got me thinking, why is Marge not injury-prone like Homer? There was the episode where Marge broke her leg and had to stay at the hospital, but it wasn't a cartoonish injury. When Homer (or other male characters for that matter) gets hurt, it's almost always cartoonishly exaggerated. But why not for female characters like Marge? Imagine if it was Marge that tried to stop Bart from jumping the gorge, only to end up cartoonishly injured?

Seems pretty self-explanatory. 4 hours and all that.
