I couldn't help but laugh at the weird afro and his baby behavior. :lol: Some may find it insulting. What do you think?

I vaguely remember that episode, I saw it before I had any memory of Astroboy, so it really did not resonate. :lol:

The Simpsons is portraying popular Japanese characters in this couch gag with Bart as Astro Boy. I post this before but I'll post it again incase some have miss it. Its in better video quality than before.

I posted a screen shot of that the day after it first aired. I wonder if anyone has made a webpage that covers all the couch gags? Hmm, maybe I will check this. :lol:

http://tapespace.com/view/Every_Simpsons_Couch_Gag has a video of what it claims is every couch gag, all rolled into one :D ; look at the 2:48 part.

:p :hyo:

Well, I think this is more of a parody than a cameo but I found this worth showing
