This was from the 5th series episode 'Burns' Heir'. the execs at THX loved this spoof so much that it was made into a trailer sting but in widescreen format, the pre-animation was done at Film Roman and it was re-animated by Anivision of Korea. The one with the URL was a 1996 re-release in Dolby Digital, DTS and SDDS.

Man it would be amazing to have classic Simpsons with a new scan from film instead of the upscaled 1990s video masters. Unless the film masters no longer exist or are so disorganized that they can't easily be used, it's amazing that Disney hasn't bothered to do this when they spend big money on restorations of all the insipid filled they made. Even in the best case scenario it would be a big job because all the editing and 60i video effects would have to be redone which I guess why it hasn't happened.

interesting to see classic animation Simpsons on film, rather than the standard def video transfer the show has been using for all releases since its been broadcast. I did read somewhere the show was shot on film, but edited and mastered on tape, maybe in the future they'll do a proper rescan of the original elements rather than the upscales that are currently out there.
