Line 6:
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' has featured many:
** One episode has Bart and Milhouse watching an obvious pastiche of ''[[South Park]].'' The Kyle-pastiche mentions that they're at a concert with a band consisting of Steve Guttenberg, Calista Flockhart and Farty the Crippled Robot. Farty farts out [[OJ Simpson]], who declares he's gonna kill everyone and says how he's gonna find the real killer. This is followed by Bart wondering, "How do they keep things so fresh after 43 episodes?" ''[[South Park]]'' had previously lampooned ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'', noting that the show's extremely long run had made it [[The Simpsons Did It|hard to find new ideas]].
** The show took occasional jabs at ''[[Ren and Stimpy]]'', particularly the long gaps between new episodes. One notable example also mocked their tendency to re-use old animation with newly dubbed voices, with a scene with Bart, Lisa and Marge doing this and commenting on how ''[[Ren and Stimpy]]'' do this all the time.
{{quote|'''Marge:''' "Yes, and when was the last time you heard anyone talk about ''Ren and Stimpy''?"}}
Line 94:
'''Executive:''' ''...who?'' }}
** In a [[The Naked Gun|Naked Gun]]-style opening sequence, Stewie runs Homer down in the Griffin family garage. Peter walks in and says "Who the hell is that?"
** Again with Homer Simpson in "The Juice Is Loose". Adam West is talking to someone off the screen, "We don't want you in our town Simpson. We don't love you like we did back in 1993. . ." [[Bait and Switch|We think]] he was talking to [[OJ Simpson]], but the screen cuts to Homer Simpson yelling "D'oh". Adam's quote references the public's love of OJ before his crime exposure in 1994 and 1993 was considered to be the heyday and peak of ''The Simpsons''.
** ''[[Robot Chicken]]'' is very similar in that respect.
*** Which lead to the hilarious ending of ''Blue Harvest''. And it gets even better [[Actor Allusion|when you realize exactly which two people do the voices for the characters involved...]]
