What if we were to tell you that on the night before Halloween, you will witness an unprecedented act of flatulence from Homer Simpson? What if we also were to point out that this was all part of a send-up of the acclaimed 2007 French film The Diving Bell and the Butterfly? Would that excite/intrigue/slightly disturb you? We thought so. That is why we have scored a first look at one of the three segments from this Sunday’s “Treehouse of Horror XXII.” In “The Diving Bell and the Butterball,” Homer becomes paralyzed after being bitten by a spider, and Lisa soon discovers that the only way he can communicate is via his derriere. This year’s trilogy also includes winks to 127 Hours, Avatar, and Dexter, but we think you might agree that it’s the following scene which breaks terrifying new ground wind.

shuido…now I know why I hate F*ing spammers like you. No valuable reason to have you on this earth.
This is bollocks.
Nothing bad about a fart joke. Sorry.
*A* fart joke, maybe. A fart-centric subplot — no thanks.
Let me guess, you LOVE Family Guy, don’t you?
FG is the crappiest show on now-a-days, unless your IQ is below 50 that is.
no the crappiest show is that bobs burger show
I love the Simpsons and Bob’s Burgers, and my IQ is over 160.
Reminds me of Sam deGroot, the detective in an iron lung. He communicated through farts.
A Simpsons Halloween episode that actually airs BEFORE Halloween? What will they think of next!
South Park did it.
i see what you did there..
I don’t want to live in a world in which farts are not hilarious.
then you live in the wrong place potty jokes and farts r funny lol
It was a double negative. 1 + 1 = fart, fart. lol, an intellectual fart joke!
Most ALL guys think farts are funny, you must be a woman. No, Northing’s WRONG with that, I am a woman too.
Louis CK said it best. “You don’t have to be smart to love farts/fart jokes, but you’d be stupid not to.”
A few fart jokes are fine, but when ever show becomes Family Guy (horrible crap-tastic show), we’re screwed as a race.
You already said that.
You do realize that the Halloween shows do not follow the general format/rules of the regular series. The aliens will probably show up too. Hope that doesn’t bother you too.
DAILY SHOW!!!
That is the basic problem with most of the television shows being broadcast now….not enough fart jokes.
Thats how I communicate to my mom When I do it I say Go away and she leaves.
THHP! BLAT! THHHHP THHHHP! POOOOOOOOOOOOT! THHHPP BLAAAAT!
(and I mean that sincerely)
Love it!!! go simpsons. fart scene brilliant!!
i wouldnt say familyguy is bad, i did hate it at first but now i think its funny. but doesnt mean people who like the simspons can say fg is bad and it doesnt mean the people who like fg think simspons is bad :/ their both funny
best fart scene ever…
totally awesome!!!!
When farts are outlawed only outlaws will cut farts. (Or something like that.)
Seriously….fart jokes? Years of making quality shows and the best they can come up with is a fart skit? Now I know what I stopped watching this show.
I cannot say enough to express how much I appreciate The Simpsons, so I won’t even try. This short clip caused me to FOL, as soon as Homer began ripping them. I always farted out loud around my children, all beautiful grown women, now, who utilize that god-given technique to express many thoughts, whenever apropos, to their now ancient father, and others.
Seriously your a damn creep!
That just gross,but funny.
