All Singing, All Dancing

All Singing, All Dancing Dark Oscar greatly dislikes singing so Springfield will need to get in touch with their musical side if they want to save the world!

Plot

The couch gag is a jab at the treadmill gag from The Jetsons with Homer being hurt by the treadmill carpet. “Marge! Stop this crazy thing!” Homer whines.

The episode starts with Homer and Bart returning home from the video rental store. This is the nineties where VHS tapes were still a widely used medium of media and Blockbuster video rental stores were a thing still...

“Did you get the popcorn?” Marge asked.

“Yep.” said Homer holding a big bag of popcorn.

“Did you get the movie?” Marge asked.

“Well...” Homer replied.

“Well did you or did you not get Waiting to Exhale?” Marge asked.

“The store is low on copies and there’s still a line for Waiting to Exhale. So don’t hold your breath.” said Homer. A studio audience laughs at his pun.

“Well did you get Emma? Did you get Emma! Did you get Emma?” Lisa asked jumping up and down in a hyperactive manner.

“Hehehehe! My little girl...” Homer tousled Lisa’s hair. “No.”

“Well what did you get?” Marge asked.

“Paint your wagon starring Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin. It’s gonna be a violent, bloody Texas shooter!” said Homer.

“Cooooool!” said Bart and Oscar.

Marge sighed.

“Get ready for the bloody mayhem and unholy carnage!” said Bart putting the tape in.

“With Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin you know this movie is gonna be violent!” said Homer.

The film started with The Man with No Name riding on a wagon pulled by a horse.

“I’m sure he has a name if people asked him...” said Lisa.

“Shhhhh!” Bart, Oscar and Homer hushed her.

Then a rough sort of gentleman in a Wild West town accosted him.

“That’s a pretty sorry looking wagon you got there, mister.” said the rough man looking for trouble.

“Oh you think so, punk?” said The Man With no Name.

“Oooooh!” Homer, Bart and Oscar eagerly awaited the violence.

“I reckon it could use a lick of paint...” the rough man said to The Man with No Name.

“Well, what are we waiting for?” said The Man with No Name.

Suddenly they start singing a joyful song.

“Ooooooh! Paint your wagon! Paint it up nice and green! Oooooooh paint your wagon!”

“Marge! They’re singing!” Homer gasped. “Why aren’t they killing each other?! Their guns are right there...”

“I think this is a musical...” said Bart.

Oscar was dancing to the silly music.

Then Lee Marvin appeared.

“Oh good! Lee Marvin is here! He’s always drunk and violent!” said Homer.

“Uh, what the hell is going on in my town?” He asked ready for a fight.

“We’re just painting this wagon. You got a problem with that?” The Nan with No Name asked.

“As a matter of fact I do...” Lee Marvin replied in cold fury. Homer hoped he’d shoot someone. “You missed a spot.”

“Well grab a brush!” said The Man with No Name.

Suddenly Lee Marvin started singing and joined in with painting the wagon green and singing joyfully.

“Yeehaw!”

“Wow that Lee Marvin sure can do the splits!” said Marge.

“And he’s so dreamy...” said Lisa. Eeeeeew! He’s an old man!

Homer turned off the tape. “Oh why did they ruin a perfectly serviceable wagon story with that fruity singing...” Homer whined.

“I thought it was toe tapping fun!” said Bart.

“Singing is the lowest form of communication!” Homer replied strangely hating singing.

“Homer you sing all the time!” said Marge.

“No I don’t! I hate to rhyme!” Homer sang as the dialogue was rhyming and in tune.

“You like musicals don’t you Daaaaad?” Lisa sung.

“No I don’t! I think they’re baaaad! They are fake, and lame, and totally wrooooong!” sung Homer.

“Wait Dad. You’re singing a sooooooong!” Bart sung.

“No! I can’t! I hate that stuff!” Homer sung.

“Now Homer, I’ve had enough! In all of our videos you’re a singing and dancing, entertainment machine...!” Marge sang putting in a tape showing scenes of the Simpsons singing.

First up is Homer singing Baby on Board on the roof of Moe’s with the B Sharps.

“Baby on boaaaard...” Homer, Barney, Apu and Skinner sing.
