Map of Springfield
I just watched Sunday’s episode of The Simpsons where they take on LOST and like Damon, I liked it. Here’s what happened and some screenshots and quotes for those who haven’t seen it… (above: a page from Homer’s notebook where he takes notes on the show, including “latest theory: they are all actors acting out a show and I am a guy at home watching it”)
The plot: Homer buys the Butt-Whisperer 9000, a treadmill that has an internet-connected HD TV attached to it, so he begins to watch Stranded while sitting in a chair he places on the machine, instead of actually using it to exercise.
Lisa, on Stranded: It “was a show about people marooned on a mysterious island that’s riddled with religious and scientific paradoxes. It was huge! Well, the first season and the last season.”
Homer’s reply: “Well, islands are always entertaining, from Gilligan to Iwo Jima.”
“Wait a minute, that flashback raised more questions than it answered!”
Jack: “Oh my god, inside the coconut, my pet cat from when I was little. And on his nametag is the number of our flight!”
Homer: ” What a great opening episode! And I’m sure everything they said will pay off handsomely!”Homer: “At last! This episode finally promises to answer one question!”
Someone on Reddit translated this and it says “Watch Futurama Thursdays at 10.”
When 2 of the greatest shows of all time collide…
