    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In "Hell Toupee", David X. Cohen used his "Scary Treehouse Name" to promote the then-upcoming Futurama (1999). If you look at the credits as Snake picks a comb, his name pops up as "David "Watch Futurama" Cohen.
    • Goofs
      Homer receives a hair transplant from Snake after the latter is executed in the electric chair, which then causes Homer to be possessed with the spirit of Snake. The problem is, before a prisoner is executed in the electric chair, the prisoner's head is shaved, in order to facilitate direct contact between the electrode and the head. (Not that The Simpsons should be expected to be too accurate on matters like this.)
    • Quotes

      Krusty the Clown: [dressed as a vampire; reading from an offscreen cue card] Hey, hey! Tonight I'm going to suck!

      [pauses in confusion; reads from another card]

      Krusty the Clown: Your blood.

    • Crazy credits
      Regis Philbin can be heard shouting, "My eyes! My beautiful eyes!" over the Gracie Films logo at the end.
    • Alternate versions
      In the UK version, Moe's line "Hey, 'Pu. You got a breakfast cereal for people with syphilis" is altered to "Hey, 'Pu. You got a breakfast cereal?"

    It was awesome
    The first segment called Hell Toupee after Snake Jailbird goes to the electric chair, Homer has a new hair that turns him evil and it's a common reference to Alien, the second segment The Terror Of Tiny Town which is a common reference to The Terror Of Tiny Town and Stay Tuned after Bart and Lisa go into the tv and medt Itchy And Scratchy and the final segment called Starship Poopers which is a common reference to Starship Troopers, Kang and Kodos arrive at the Simpsons house and start telling that Maggie belongs to the aliens. In the ending we can hear someone screaming my eyes my beautiful eyes.
