Video clips of The Simpsons for the blind

the sight gags are still funny, but in a very different way [via]

"Last Sunday, while I put my kids to bed, Fox showed the season premiere of one of my favorite television shows, 'The Simpsons.' So I taped it. What I didn't know, since I use the VCR so infrequently, was that my children had somehow reconfigured it to tape with the audio 'blind-assist' function on. So the entire episode is narrated, in DVD commentary style, by a mellow voice which describes the action taking place on-screen."
