Über diesen Titel

Writer-director and Simpsons fan Alex Ross Perry (Videoheaven, Pavements, Her Smell) joins Adam and Nate to discuss one of the most prescient movie parodies on The Simpsons: William Friedkin’s famous flop Sorcerer (1977) in “Mr. Plow” (S4E9). How was the writers room’s movie taste a decade ahead of Sorcerer’s reappraisal?

Also in this episode:

• Why every Simpsons fan needs a “Simpsons buddy” to keep them sharp

• How The Simpsons perfected the art of movie quotation

• The impossibly long discography (and filmography) of Tangerine Dream

• How Alex learned to stop worrying and love latter day Simpsons

Plus, check out our show notes for a complete list of Simpsons references, double feature suggestions, and further reading

Next time, Adam and Nate talk Oscar predictions, Best Picture nominees, and their own Awards for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Movie Excellence for 2025.

For more of Alex’s work, keep an eye out for the long-awaited streaming release of Videoheaven, coming this March!
