    The parody they did for Fargo entitled "A Serious Flanders." (It was a two parter.)
    Tbh, it was like I was watching the actual show. It had the crazy music.... a bad guy with his two henchmen.... a cop played by Timothy Olyphant.... a shootout at a motel..... and woman with an accent from Fargo played by Cristin Milioti. (Both Olyphant and Milioti had roles in the Fargo series. Milioti in season 2 and Oly... as a cop... in season 4.) Snow, guns, blood and...... lots and lots of death.
    Very iconic episodes.

      that episode was one of those i didn't see until much much later after it aired. i saw it finally when i was recording every episode of the simpsons so i could have a collection. i started around season 8 and finished in season 11. kept going until season 13 when i stopped watching the show regularly. had a nice 16 tape collection (recorded in extra long play). i don't know whatever happened to those tapes but they were degrading from me watching the entire collection over and over again.

    Another thing I found funny about the South Park parody that's I'm surprised nobody has really pointed out is the fact that Milhouse comments on how the kids in South Park are voiced by adults and then you hear Stan talking and he has the same voice as Milhouse proving that adults voice to kids in The Simpsons as well.

    Just a note, Homer was fleeing at the mention of Karaoke, not because one of the Cheers members was brandishing a bottle. Something that he was quite used to from all the time spent at Moe's and the numerous bar fights(both actual and implied) that occurred there.

    My favorite one... idk if it was a parody or not. But Homer lost what mind he has and went to find his real true love. (Because a vision told him it wasnt Marge) Anyway he ends up in a lighthouse. You see his silhouette against the sky and Bart says "hey is that Dad?" Lisa responds, "Either that or Batman really let himself go."

    the toilet flushing in the married with children parody was a reference to married with children being the first tv show to show people going to the toilet and not being discrete about it.

    I liked when they did the Hitchcock parodies like ‘Strangers on a Train’ and ‘Rear Window’ (replete with a Jimmy Stewart type character). For the ‘X-Files’ parody I think they even had Hitchcock walking a small dog.

    It’s depressing in my mid 30s that I’m
    A) Older than the Simpsons
    B) The only two “family related animated” shows were The Flintstones and The Jetsons… I wouldn’t change a damn fecking thing…

      and of course Futurama is one big parody on "The Jetsons".

    I don’t really agree because my favorite Simpsons parody is it’s a wonderful life. It’s a funny scene and at least should have made honorable mentions

    I love how the writers of the show made fun of the most controversial episode “the principal and the pauper” seasons later because even the creator of the show called it a huge mistake.

    I think the Cheers scene was great, but I'm guessing they didn't give Frasier any audible line because it would have given away the Sideshow Bob connection.
