The Simpsons: 20 Awesome Easter Eggs And References

10. Homer As Homer

Episode: I Am Furious (Yellow) (S13, E18) A celebrity appearance earlier in the episode from Stan Lee had viewers thinking that the episode was done for guest appearances but die-hard Simpsons fans who had watched interviews with the voice actors immediately spotted this next Easter Egg. After Bart's comic book becomes a success, an online company quickly secures a deal to create the animated cartoon version of Angry Dad. In a humorous, meta-reference, Homer's real life voice actor Dan Castellaneta auditions for the character inspired by the man he voices. Fans will have recognised Castellaneta by the baseball cap and sunglasses he is almost always seen wearing as well as by the fact that he knocks his audition for Angry Dad/Homer out the park. The talented voice actor is responsible not just for voicing the iconic father of the Simpson's household but also for Grampa, Barney, Groundskeeper Willie and Krusty the Clown.
