Troy McClure hosts a special episode which features three ideas for spin-offs to The Simpsons:
Chief Wiggum, P.I. – a crime drama where Chief Wiggum and Seymour Skinner are detectives in New Orleans and Ralph gets kidnapped.
The Love-Matic Grampa – a sitcom where Grampa's soul is contained in Moe's Love Tester machine and now must help Moe find love.
The Simpson Family Smile-Time Variety Hour – a Brady Bunch Hour-meets-Laugh In-meets-1970s Saturday Night Live style sketch show hosted by The Simpsons (save for Lisa, who is replaced by a peppy 20-year-old bimbo).

Chief Wiggum: If it isn't my old friends from Springfield, the Simpsons! What brings you folks to New Orleans?
Bart: Mardi Gras, man. When the Big Easy calls, you gotta accept the charges.
Lisa: Chief Wiggum, I can't wait to hear about all the exciting, sexy adventures you're sure to have against this colorful backdrop.
Chief Wiggum: Well golly, I'd love to chat but my son's been kidnapped. You haven't seen him, have you? Caucasian male, between the ages of six and ten, thinning hair.
Homer: Over there. (points to the crowd, where Big Daddy and Ralph are)
Ralph: Look, Big Daddy, it's regular daddy.
Big Daddy: The Chief! Ooh, I suppose I'd best to run. (fans himself with his hat) Lord have mercy, how I wish I weren't so fat. | Grampa: Son, it's me! I floated up toward Heaven but got lost along the way.
Homer: Dad is that really you?
Grampa: Darn tootin' you lousy creep! You buried me naked and sold my suit to buy a ping-pong table. What kind of a son …
(Homer pulls the love tester's plug)
Homer: (leaving) Call me when you get a karaoke machine.
(Moe plugs Grampa back in)
Grampa: That's the second time he's pulled the plug on me. |
