Are you thinking of the time Maggie shot Mr Burns? Or did I miss another one? |

| Quote: | | while the infamous "Treehouse of Horror VI" episode presents the most intense five minutes of mathematics ever broadcast to a mass audience. |
Is that the one where Homer gets sucked into the black hole and he's saying "I wish I'd read that book by that wheelchair guy!" |

Ha! The clockwork nazi ninja got a look in! 
Do you think he works for the Daily Mail?

The Who Shot Mr Burns? business was an homage to Dallas. A season-end cliffhanger featured a dastardly attack on the power station magnate.
The Dallas scenario had the oil tycoon, JR Ewing, bumped off by a mysterious figure with a gun.

Pretty comprehensive from what I saw as it went through. And a couple of references I didn't immediately get. Nothing about the head of Jebediah Springfield, though.
Of course, my favourite was the Hypnotoad from the lamentably twice-cancelled Futurama. (Then again, it's probably best they leave it now.) |
