A book: The Gospel According to The Simpsons: The Spiritual Life of the World's Most Animated Family.
"God, if you really are God, you'll get me tickets to that game. Why do you mock me O Lord?" --Homer
A web site: The Simpsons Archive has it all. The have really cool things like episode capsules which give you everything you ever wanted to know about a Simpsons episode and more.

A favorite episode of mine is Dancin' Homer. I saw it in a movie theatre. Oh yeah. It was the best way to watch a Simpsons episode. Imagine sitting in a theatre with others who are laughing at the same silly references that you thought no one else got. The theatre was in the Museum of Television & Radio where you can watch and listen to over 100,000 television and radio programs. Next month they are showing, "From Albert Brooks to the TV Funhouse: Selected Short Films from Saturday Night Live." If you go there you can also sign up to personally view almost any TV show ever made. I watched the first episode of The Odd Couple. It was still funny. It even included the original commercials.
