{{Credits Gag}}s in ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''.
----
* Most "Treehouse of Horror" Halloween episodes have all credits being given "Spooky names", and the Gracie Films VanityPlate being accompanied by OminousPipeOrgan music.
* Most episodes after season 7 or 8 will have a mini [[TheTag tag]], usually a DeletedScene meant for earlier in the episode, playing over the credits.
* At one point in the episode "Lisa the Vegetarian," guest star Music/PaulMcCartney claims that if one plays his song "Maybe I'm Amazed" from ''Music/McCartney'' backwards will reveal a secret recipe for lentil soup. The end credits thus features a recording of "Maybe I'm Amazed" with a backmasked recipe for lentil soup...and Paul saying "Oh, by the way, I'm alive", referring to the "Paul is dead" theories.
* In "Bart Star", a ninth-season episode, Homer coaches a peewee football team. Homer talks over the credits, cutting everyone involved in the show, with the exception of guest star Joe "Vapor Lock" Namath. At the end, he cuts the Gracie Films logo.
* In "All Singing, All Dancing" the credits had Snake periodically shooting the sound guys to stop the music ("You too, Gracie music! GAH!") Unfortunately, sometimes syndication cuts it off right after his first threat.
* In "I'm With Cupid", the end credits text is presented in red color rather than the usual yellow.
* "Marge Simpson in: Screaming Yellow Honkers": Apparently, the Creator/{{Fox}} executives were not pleased with the episode ending on the characters giving high praise for NBC, so the writers inserted a gag in which Homer is forced, at gunpoint, to declare that NBC sucks and encourage the viewer to watch as many Fox shows as possible. However, Homer ends with the summation "NBC bad... Fox good... ''(quickly under his breath)'' Creator/{{CBS}} great.", and he ends up getting shot.
* "Eight Misbehavin'": Homer continues screaming in pain from being attacked by cobras well into the credits, [[BreakingTheFourthWall begging for the next show to come on]].
* In "The Mansion Family", the episode ends with Homer crying over the fact that he's not rich. This carries over into the credits, where he cries over how rich all the people listed are and threaten to report them all to the IRS. When the Gracie Films logo appears, Homer responds to the "Shh" with "Don't shush me, you rich bastard!"
** Or "Don't shush me!" if you're watching the episode on British televison (at least when it was shown on BBC Two, before the ChannelHop).
** The DVD has Homer complaining over all the credits.
** Another has Grandpa Simpson rambling over the credits until the logo shushes him and he apologies.
** Especially funny in that the very first name Homer cuts is "Creator/DanCastellaneta" - the name of the man who provides Homer's voice. So, in effect, Homer cut ''himself''! (Note: When this episode was shown on Sky with teletext subtitles, one last subtitle came up announcing the subtitler himself was cut.)
* "Alone Again, Natura-Diddly": During the credits that run underneath the first sequence of the episode, the writer credit is larger than usual, timed to appear after Lisa comes across a tree with initials carved on it and wonders, "Why do jerks think everyone wants to see their stupid name?"
* At least two in-universe examples: at the end of the first two ''Itchy'' cartoons, only one man is listed in the credits. Also, ''The Poke of Zorro'' has credits that are just too awesome to be real:
-->@@Zorro ................................ John Byner@@

* "Last Tap Dance in Springfield": The entire ending credits sequence are done in the style of old-time movies.
* "The Dad Who Knew Too Little": Over the credits is a scene where Bart steals Lisa's new diary, which shocks unauthorized users who try to open it, and tricks Homer into an attempt to read it as a bedtime story.
* In "Marge vs. SSCCATAG", Roofi's repetitive counting song plays over the ending credits.
* In "Milhouse Doesn't Live Here Anymore", "Movin' On Up" is played over the end credits.
* "Smart and Smarter" has [[Series/AmericanIdol Simon Cowell]], the guest star of that episode, riff over the ending credits. It ends with "Oh, shh yourself" in response to the Gracie Films logo.
* In "Regarding Margie", after Marge losing her memory, she tries to remember the people listed in the end credits.
* In "G.I. (Annoyed Grunt)", an Army sergeant talks over the end credits, assigning everyone to "front line infantry".
** Except for Kiefer Sutherland, who provides the voice of the drill sergeant, who assigns himself to the "COAST GUARD!" (Music/DannyElfman is also spared, for some reason.)
* On the [=DVDs=], there is usually list of public places where you shouldn't play [=DVDs=]. ''The Simpsons'' adds "couches" to the list (''very'' minor).
* TheMovie had Homer urging the audience not to leave the theater early; "A lot of people worked hard on this movie, and all they ask is that you ''memorize their names!''" One of its credits reads, "Filmed on location in Springfield, .", a reference to [[WhereTheHellIsSpringfield Springfield not being in any particular state]].
* "Lisa the Drama Queen" has a cover of the ''Simpsons'' theme by Music/FallOutBoy over the credits.
* "No Loan Again, Naturally" has lively jazz music playing instead of the regular credits music.
* In "Pranks and Greens", Lisa calls Andy a loser for the last time when she finds out he became a writer on Krusty's show. [[SelfDeprecation This then continues into the credits.]]
* "Love is a Many-Strangled Thing" has "[[Music/AliceCooper No More Mr. Nice Guy]]" playing over the credits.
* "Lisa Goes Gaga" forgoes the traditional credits music for Homer singing a parody of Music/LadyGaga's "Poker Face".
* The credits sequence in "Adventures in Baby-Getting" are in a cursive font, alluding to how Lisa's been secretly learning cursive in the B-Plot.
* In "Pulpit Friction", Homer sings his own version of "Day By Day" over the credits.
* The executive producer credits (as well as the writer and director credits) for "Homerland" have the "E"s in the names turned backwards, a nod to the "E" used in the font for ''{{Series/Homeland}}''.
* "Four Regrettings and a Funeral" features [[RememberTheNewGuy Chip Davis]], a character we've never seen before but everyone acts as though he already exists. The credits act as a "memorial" for him where he's edited into a bunch of classic scenes.
* "White Christmas Blues": On top of the credits is a montage of out-of-state license plates, which Marge complained about earlier in the episode.
* "Steal This Episode": At the end of the episode, after listening to Lisa, Bart comes to the conclusion that "[e]veryone's a pirate". And right as Lisa is about to reveal who the worst one is, she looks at the camera... and is cut off by NASCAR footage again, playing behind the credits.
* The credits sequence of the ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' episode "The Simpsons Guy" (which is a crossover with ''The Simpsons'') begins with the Gracie Films logo, with Peter giving out "And now the show is over now" in tune to the music, followed by a combination of the credits sequences of both shows (this is more apparent near the end).
* "The Wreck of the Relationship": Over the credits is a parody of "Haul Away, Joe", by various characters about the events of the episode. We see still images of scenes that aren't a part of the episode, such as Bart painting "I don't like you when you drink" on a shell and presenting it to Homer.
* "Bull-E" plays the ''Series/SoulTrain'' theme over the credits.
* In "Puffless", Music/YoYoMa's rendition of the ''Simpsons'' theme on cello plays over the credits.
* "The Last Traction Hero": Instead of on the TV as per usual, the "Created by" and "Developed by" credits appear on parking space signs while Homer searches for an open spot.
-->'''Homer:''' D'oh! Mandatory credit!...D'oh! "Developed by"? What does that even mean?
* "Yokel Hero": As with ''Film/Vice2018'', this episode has premature end credits at the end of Act I. Cletus stops the premature credits, and gives himself a whittling credit.
