Canon discussions
Use this section to discuss why you consider an episode to be canon or not. If it's decided to be non-canon, it will be added to the list. The Solar Dragon 07:13, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Uncut Femmes
I feel this episode should be considered non-canon as it changes Sarah Wiggum's story and how she met Clancy Wiggum, as heard in the season 14 episode "A Star Is Born Again". The Solar Dragon 07:13, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Do PizzaBots Dream of Electric Guitars?
I feel that this episode can be considered canon still as whilst it changes up Homer's teenage story, I don't think it directly contradicts anything else stated, other than the floating timeline changing the year Homer was a teenager in. The Solar Dragon 07:13, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
The Principal and the Pauper
Skinner's backstory is changed, which is contradicted in multiple future episodes, including "Boy Meets Curl" where Agnes is seen pregnant with someone who is clearly the Skinner we know. Although, it has been mentioned once later... The Solar Dragon 07:31, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
I, (Annoyed Grunt)-bot
We go through multiple Snowballs, only to have one that looks identical to Snowball II and is only referred to as Snowball II in future. Plus, Skinner's referred to as "Armin Tamzarian" in this. The Solar Dragon 07:31, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Donnie Fatso
Another one that doesn't make a whole lot of sense, Fat Tony dies and is replaced by his cousin, Fit Tony, who then becomes Fat Tony. However, Michael still seems to be his son. The Solar Dragon 07:31, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Replaceable You
Mrs. Glick gets killed this episode. However, she is seen alive and well in multiple future episodes. The Solar Dragon 07:31, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Gump Roast
According to our current list of non-canon episodes, "Gump Roast" is classed as non-canon. However, I don't see why it should be. Kang and Kodos, and aliens, have made appearances in other canon episodes too. So I feel this could be canon. The Solar Dragon 10:05, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Brick Like Me
Another on the non-canon list, but most of the episode, the Lego part, is a dream. So this feels like it should be canon. The Solar Dragon 10:05, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Every Man's Dream
The episode is all dreams within dreams, which is then revealed to be a story behind a tattoo on Hannah Horvath's back. The Solar Dragon 15:25, September 4, 2021 (EDT)
Tales from the Public Domain
The framing story should be canon, and thus the episode should be as well. (Marge reading to the kids, and Bowdlerizing one of the stories) The stories themselves should be non-canon, as they involve things like characters getting killed off and eaten and they really come off like the THOH stories. -- Mythigator (talk) 21:57, September 24, 2021 (EDT)
Simpsons Tall Tales
Framing story: canon, thus making the episode canon. "Tales": non-canon. Same reasoning as "Tales from the Public Domain", except that this episode doesn't have the THOH-style violence and mayhem. Thus, the family's hopping a train whilst on a trip is canon as it's part of the framing story, but "Homer as Paul Bunyan" is not. -- Mythigator (talk) 21:57, September 24, 2021 (EDT)
Revenge is a Dish Best Served Three Times
Framing story (and thus the episode) canon, individual stories non-canon. Same reasoning as "Simpsons Tall Tales". Thus, Homer's being prone to road rage is canon (and at any rate entirely consistent with his character), but Milhouse's power glove and revenge campaign against the bullies are not. -- Mythigator (talk) 21:57, September 24, 2021 (EDT)
