Watching the Simpsons as a kid, I honestly always assumed Rod and Todd were homeschooled, both because of the whole "you almost never see them interacting with the other kids at Springfield Elementary" thing, and from personal bias because we grew up with neighbors who we always jokingly referred to as the Flanders because they were both very nice and Super-Christian, and they home-schooled their kids.

THIS GOES ALONG WITH MY THEORY ABOUT NED BEING ACTUALLY A SATANIST! Suuure he keeps putting on the act that he's a humble Christian man, BUT there are a few clues to contradict that! 1. He was the football coach in "Bart the Star" and yet he gave his two sons football uniforms that combines to 666?! 2. He admitted that he allowed his children to buy candy to that had the cartoon DEVIL on the box. How does that correlate with all his other moments of being an overly paranoid Christian?! You expect me to believe that!? 3. NED BEING LEFTHANDED. You've heard how people who uses left hands are deemed EVIL 4. Treehouse of Horror 4 was meant to be used as a warning! "It's always the one you least suspect" 5. Maggie was influenced by the Flanders in when they were her temporary parents and yet she spun her head around like she was possessed! And it's NOT a THOH. Coincidence? I think not! *We're through the looking glass here, people-* -Or maybe I have too much spare time on my hands-

Speaking of how isolated rod and Todd are from the other kids.... there’s the season 12 episode ‘skinner’s sense of snow’ in which the kids are snowed into the school, whilst Homer and Ned attempt to save the kids from the outside. What’s weird is that whilst Ned has a major role in the episode, his sons are barely seen in the episode at all, despite being snowed in with all the other children.

My theory is that Ned is moulding Rod to be the next Springfield Pastor or take some higher role in their church or school, so he has to give more stricter attention, while Tod is more laid back and has more opportunity to be a kid. Yes, he'll participate in his family's church dealings, but he's not strictly bound to them like Rod is.

I've always liked Todd more too, but maybe that's just because he was the focus a little more. I especially like that apparently he and Bart are close enough friends that they can see into each other's bedroom windows and Todd casually greets him "Hi Bart!" (even if that is a throwaway joke that doesn't make sense with the geography of their houses).

It is kinda weird how little Rod and Todd are in the show despite living next to the Simpson's and Ned being such a major character. Dead Putting Society is probably the most either of them are in an episode and that is like in the first 20 episodes. Also with Lemon of Troy and Skinner's Sense of Snow it really feels like they were involved just so Ned can come get them later in the episode with Homer.

No mention on how ‘Rock Bottom’ had to make the correction “The older Flanders boy is Todd, not Rod”? I think the real mystery is why ‘Rock Bottom’ was reporting on the Flanders in the first place. Either way, something doesn’t line up if you’re now saying Rod is the elder, I mean all the rest of the ‘Rock Bottom’ corrections were accurate: Styrofoam isn’t made from kittens, salt water doesn’t chase the thirsties away, and I did slow it down to read them all so yes I do not have a life.

Love your videos but one thing I want to point out. Early on the Flanders family seemed to represent the "grass is greener" on the otherside. Rather than be a cautionary tale (which is what it evolved too) we always see Flanders having a great successful life. The leftorium episode breaks away from this, but as we see in earlier episodes Homer is quite jealous of Flander's success with everything. Only really after the death of Maude do we see Rod and Todd get much more sheltered...possibly because of Ned's overprotection?

It was always clear who was Rod and who was Todd, based off of appearances. Also, it could just be me, but it felt like Flanders (especially Rod & Todd) got weirder and weirder after Maude's death. Like some of Ned's most exaggerated "nagging Christian man" scenes were in later seasons, as well as Rod & Todd appearing more and more sheltered & out of touch with the real world. Perhaps that's just me. Also, Simpsons Histories on Inanimate Carbon Rod when???

They did get kind of weird in the later seasons. Like playing games where they freeze in place for a long time or playing with pretend presents. It's hard to tell since they were always kind of weird, but they did seem a little more space-y in the later years.

I guess it's that before Maude died they were largely a well knit family that Homer envied, those weak spots existed here and there but a wife/mother to unite them all prevented that vulnerability showing too often besides minor comic relief, while as mentioned in the video, we get more moments of proper limelight with the boys and Marge or Edna trying to bond with them after that tragedy, so those quirks work as a conflict to that.

It could also be that the game is very vanilla and boring as it was based off of Mystery Date, which was an actual board game by Milton Bradley in the 1960s. I like to think Josh Weinstein also took a jab at Mystery Date with Bart's boredom at playing the game the family is playing while Lisa gets to go off and have fun, saying that Mystery Date was "a very disappointing game to play as a little boy"

The beauty of earlier Simpsons is that none, literally none, of these continuity issues mattered. It was only as the show dragged on with the characters not aging but the continuity clearly changing that any of these issues emerged. Basically when the show become worse I started getting hung up on details. It's weird to me when you compare things that happened in season 29 with something like Bart Sells His Soul as they're practically different shows.

It's a fair point to make, I have to look up which one is Rod and which one is Todd. They ARE very similar in personality, and I think the show tends to emphasize how sheltered they are due to how Ned (and Maude before she died) raised them than creating any distinguishing characteristics between them, other than that one of them is technically older than the other.

Rod and Todd are, in my opinion, a representation of kids who have overprotective parents and how their parent's overprotectiveness has an impact on the way their child grows up. Like literally in every episode the Flanders appear Rod and Todd experience relentless sheltering by their parents from nearly everything that doesn't connect to religion or any other pious things that their family enjoys. As a result, they have strange personalities.

I would love to see episodes exploring Rod and Todd's character. The fact that Todd actually does something really cool and brave in that Season 17 episode really makes me want to watch it now.

Not Jimbo, Dolph, and Kearney, the much shorter guys who were really just background characters (not sure they even have names). They were part of the plot in Bart the General, I believe, when Bart was fighting against Nelson's continued bullying.

My brother always used to work on the basis that Rodd was 12 and that the audience's assocation of Rodd with Bart and Todd with Lisa had just pushed people to read them as 10 and 8 incorrectly. At the time when we started rewatching the Simpsons with our little brother (about 10 years after we'd watched them originally) this claim that 'Rodd was accidentally called Todd in the first episode' was going around and it used to make him so annoyed. He actually trawled through all their early series appearances looking for confirmation that Todd was 10 and that the child in S1E1 was the shorter Flanders brother. It's neat to see we were not the only ones since I think our rewatch would have been about the time this video came out.

As someone who grew up going to private school and having a deeply religious family they always struck me as the cookie cutter sheltered Christian kiddos. Ik that's what the show was going for but I had classes with kids like them and when we all got to highschool and they were still incredibly sheltered their entire world was shattered by the reality of real life. It was scary how oblivious kids were to things because of their families. I think one kid wasn't allowed to watch any movies rated above G until she was like..17. She got kn trouble once for going to a sleepover where they watched a PG movie
