The Simpson family watches the movie on TV at the beginning on the episode, and later it is seen again on Troy and Selma's date to the drive-in. Troy McClure (voiced by Phil Hartman) stars in a fictional Muppet movie entitled "The Muppets Go Medieval" with Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy. The writers of Dinosaurs made a similar joke about The Simpsons being just like them in the episode " Dirty Dancin'". But you see it today and you don't know what we're talking about." And it was really kind of a character-for-character knock-off of The Simpsons. I think the Jim Henson Company made them. It came on, I guess, this year and they were giant kind of foam-rubber dinosaurs with human beings inside. In the DVD audio commentary on this episode, Mike Reiss comments, saying "Look, it's a parody of Dinosaurs! I'm sure none of you remember this show. Bart: It's like they saw our lives and put it right up on screen. Homer and Bart laugh Lisa: These talking dinosaurs are more real than most real families on TV.īaby Sinclair is seen hitting Earl on the head with a frying pan Homer: Look, Maggie, they have a baby, too.
The parody clip shown of a "Simpson-ized" Earl, Robbie and Baby hints at the fact that the show was perceived in some quarters as another Simpsons-clone.Įarl: Would you turn off that rock-and-rock music?! Robbie: Hey, don't have a stegosaurus, man. Homer, Bart, Lisa and Maggie are watching an episode of Dinosaurs on TV.
