Trivia[]
- It is the last season documented by the Frinkiac website.
- This season has the 365th ("Simpsons Christmas Stories") and 366th ("Homer's Paternity Coot") episodes, meaning that a viewer can watch a Simpsons episode a day for a full year (or a leap year, in the case of "Homer's Paternity Coot") without repeating, provided the viewer doesn't watch any of the Tracy Ullman Show shorts or skip over the now-banned season 3 episode "Stark Raving Dad".
- This is the first season ending in the 7 digit to use the full intro as season 7 was the first to not use it, leaving out the 138th episode spectacular.
- This is also the first 7 digit season to use the intro first introduced in season 3, albeit one episode, as season 7 did not use it for any of its episodes.
- This is one of the seasons where only some episodes are pal-pitched in some other countries.
- The episodes are The Girl Who Slept Too Little, Homer's Paternity Coot, We're on the Road to D'oh-where, The Seemingly Never Ending Story, and Bart Has Two Mommies.
- The rest of the episodes would need to be heard in some parts of the UK and France in order to obtain the pal-pitched effect.
