The Simpsons: 15 Best Ever TV Show Parodies & Homages
9. Mad Men
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=193HrGxexXY Seen in: Treehouse Of Horror XIX (Season 20, Episode 4) The Man In The Blue Flannel Pants from season twenty three was an out-and-out Mad Men parody, as Homer transforms into Don Draper as he becomes Mr Burns' account manager. Likewise, season twenty five's Days Of Future Future spoofs Mad Men's ridiculously enigmatic next time promos. However, The Simpsons' best Mad Men parody occurs, as do the best of the show's spoofs, in a Treehouse Of Horror segment. Instead of the usual title card, How To Get Ahead In Deadvertisng - a murderous take on Mad Men - begins with a frame-by-frame take on the series' opening sequence. In truth, the rest of the skit doesn't live up to this but this moment is so great you can forgive it. Homer's lollipop in place of Draper's cigarette is a particularly nice touch.
