A new Marge-themed episode airs in North America tonight, titled “Diatribe Of A Mad Housewife”. A description follows. “Marge begins writing a novel set on Nantucket Island in the mid-1800s. Although the story takes place two centuries ago, Marge bases the characters on people in her real life, telling the tale of a woman who is married to a brute and fancies her neighbor. Marge sends the manuscript off to Delacroix, who likes it so much she forwards it to authors Tom Clancy and Thomas Pynchon (guest-starring as themselves) for endorsement. Marge’s novel, “The Harpooned Heart,” soon hits bookstores and has the town of Springfield recognizing Homer and Ned Flanders as her leading men. Homer, too lazy to actually read the book, buys a books-on-tape version that is read by guest-stars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Furious at the outcome of the story, Homer turns to Flanders to show him how to be a better husband.” Don’t miss it!
