Behind the Laughter

Treehouse of Horror XI ►

Bart: The funniest stuff came right out of real life. (Flashes back to shooting a scene with Homer)

Homer: Son, let's go out for frosty chocolate milkshakes.

Bart: Cowabunga, dude!

Director: And... cut!

Bart: Dad, I've never said "cowabunga" in my life. Your script sucks!

Homer: Why you little... (begins to angrily strangle him)

Director: Hey, that's funny! (The two stop, then Homer and Bart continue with a fake strangling as they make mock grunting and gagging noises.)

Homer: And that horrible act of child abuse became one of our most beloved running gags.
