After Bart and Lisa watch an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon, Maggie whacks Homer with a mallet over the head. Marge is horrified and vows to stop violence on children's television. But when the ball of censorship starts to roll, where will it all end?

In this episode, we discuss:

• The inspiration for this episode: a real-life anti-censorship crusader, Terry Rakolta, who protested the show "Married... with Children".
• The shot-for-shot scene in this episode from AHitchcock'shcok's PsMichaelangelo'sngeo's The Statue of David, and which country's currency has a willie on their note

A deep-dive research podcast with host Perrie Kap examines the most fantastic TV show of our time: The Simpsons.
