A new episode of The Simpsons titled Dude, Where’s My Ranch? airs this Sunday at 8pm on Fox. The episode features David Byrne and Jonathan Taylor Thomas as guest stars. Here’s a preview:
“David Byrne, the former lead singer of the Talking Heads, will play himself on Sunday’s episode of The Simpsons. When Homer writes a song about how much he hates Flanders and sings it for the guys at Moe’s, Byrne offers to produce the tune. If you’re wondering what David Byrne would be doing at Moe’s, well, sometimes cartoons just stop making sense. “I kinda jumped up and down,” Byrne says of being asked to do the show. “I thought, well my life’s made now. It’s all downhill from here.” With Byrne’s backing, “Flanders Is a Jerk” becomes a big radio hit for Homer. So much so, in fact, that the family grows to hate it. So they take a road to nowhere, escaping to a dude ranch. There, Lisa falls for a young cowboy, voiced by ex-“Home Improvement” star Jonathan Taylor Thomas.”
