Mine’s gotta be Marge on the Lam. It’s got Ballet as bears driving little cars, it’s got Homer about to have his arms sawed off cause he didn’t let go of soda, it’s got good waffles sticking together, it’s got moonshine straight from your own still, it’s got ghost cars, it’s got Miguel Sanchez, it’s got Sunshine and Lollypops and Raibows, it’s got precious antique cans, it’s got suspects in a…red car who are passing directly beneath the earth’s sun…now. it’s hilarious and really encapsulates season 5s ‘fuck it, we ball’ attitude.
Genuine but really permitted. They got Rupert Murdoch on and had him refer to himself as a billionaire tyrant bit also he owned Fox, so it was never outside of what the overseers allowed but they allowed any Fox bashing quite well from what I heard from the dvd commentaries from dvds released by fox but a lot of people kn them weren’t under contract anymore and they didn’t pay as much attention to commentary content in the early dvd days when the classico seasons came out. So it does seem like Fox at the time was totally fine with it as long as the money came in, Disney seems way less willing to allow that.
