The latest episode of Fox’s long-running animated comedy, The simpsonswas an homage to an iconic video game series: Mario Kart. During the scene we see Lisa as Mario, Homer as Warioand other characters dressed as Nintendo characters Mario Kart Parody. For all the weirdos out there who have always longed to hear Homer Simpson say “WAH!” Like Wario, here we go.
On February 25th The simpsons broadcast “Lisa gets an F1“The 12th episode of the 35th season of the animated sitcom. As a result, Lisa struggles with anxiety because her father drives dangerously and frighteningly. She feels like she has no control over her life. A therapist suggests that she try driving go-karts to have more control and be less afraid of driving. It works and Lisa eventually becomes an experienced racer. Convenient (because it’s a modern one). Simpsons Episode) An international go-kart race comes to Springfield and she enters and tries to win. As this happens, Homer begins to worry endlessly and blames himself for putting Lisa in danger. And that leads to him having one Mario KartNightmare on topic.
In her dream, Lisa drives around Rainbow Road as Mario. Milhouse as Yoshi drives past Lisa and is then immediately taken out by a Blue Shell. I laughed very hard at that moment. It’s perfect timing and on-brand for Milhouse.
Afterwards, Homer as Wario pulls up next to Lisa, laughs evilly, and then throws a bomb at his daughter before waking up and screaming “Wah!” one last time.
Perhaps the best joke to come out of this otherwise mediocre episode (too much time is spent on a boring B-plot involving Bart) is when Lisa calls Homer overprotective Mario Kart Dream to which Homer replies, “What is it?” Mario Kart?” I have so many questions.
This segment is the beginning of the episode and is just another example of the show’s recent move to using video games as joke fodder. Last year, The simpsons including a Roblox And Assassin’s Creed VR parody, to. What’s next? Will Homer play? Helldivers 2 Next year? Or Palworld? Honestly, there’s a good chance that will happen.
