The Simpsons Doing A "Dark And Twisted" Parody of 'Fargo' In New Episode "A Serious Flanders" [Video]

 

Halloween may be over but that isn’t stopping the folks over at The Simpsons from bringing a new dark parody episode to the release schedule.

Variety reports that an upcoming episode of the long-running animated series will be paying tribute to/spoofing the “Fargo” television series, and it’s titled “A Serious Flanders.”

The tale, described as being “dark and twisted” by the show’s executive producer, is actually a two-parter, and it’s a spoof not only of “Fargo” but of dark, prestige television in general. Now we’re talkin!

Here’s the rundown for ya.

Part One – November 7th: “When a ruthless debt collector comes to Springfield, Homer and Ned’s lives are sucked into the artfully violent world of prestige TV.”

Part Two – November 14th: “Uff-da! Things for Ned and Homer go from bad to gosh-darn worse in the stunning conclusion of this SIMPFLIX prestige crime thriller.”
