YMMV / The Simpsons S13 E17 "Gump Roast"

• Hilarious in Hindsight: All the proposed story ideas in the last verse of "They'll Never Stop the Simpsons" came true in one way or another.
  Have no fears, we've got stories for years, like
  Marge becomes a robot ^note  In "The Heartbroke Kid", Homer has an Imagine Spot involving a Terminator-esque Marge. In "Hail to the Teeth", Artie Ziff marries a robotic Marge. And finally in "Thanksgiving of Horror", Marge's consciousness is used create an AI.
  Maybe Moe gets a cell phone ^note  In "Love is a Many-Strangled Thing", Moe has a flip phone, and Bart Prank Texts him on it.
  Has Bart ever owned a bear? ^note  In "Apocalypse Cow", Bart gets a large mammal as a pet (though it's a cow, not a bear). Homer befriends a bear in "The Fat and the Furriest".
  Or, how 'bout a crazy wedding? ^note The accompanying still shows Abe marrying both Selma and Patty. Abe would be briefly married to Selma in "Rome-old and Juli-eh", while another episode ("There's Something About Marrying") revolved around Patty planning a same-sex wedding.
• Suspiciously Similar Song: The writers actually tried to license the melody of "We Didn't Start the Fire" for "They'll Never Stop the Simpsons", but couldn't reach a deal with Billy Joel's publishers, so they were forced to write a soundalike song.
• Unintentional Period Piece: Two of the celebrities Kang and Kodos see at the People's Choice Awards are Burt Reynolds and Michael Jeter. (possibly due to both of them being co-stars on Evening Shade). Jeter would die in 2003, less than a year after the episode aired, followed by Reynolds in 2018.
