This was from a recent episode of the Simpsons. I love in-jokes like that, not gonna lie Laughing

I haven't watched it yet myself, but the episode is here if anyone is interested: http://www.hulu.com/stand_alone/m1pm4mx0?lcname=SitePlayer_lcname_mc_9804_3#0

The episode is Bart gets a friend from Jordan, and Homer suspects the boy's family of being terrorists. Homer starts to have a nightmare about it, and apparently Genie appears Laughing

That is awesome. Laughing In retrospect, I'm surprised they hadn't make a joke about that years before.

LOL. I've always thought that when a movie or something gets parodied by Simpsons or MAD magazine, then they've hit the big time.

It's at 14 minutes into the episode, and, yes, Dan is also the voice of genie. He actually sounds a lot more like Robin there than he does in the series; just goes to show that he could have got it a lot closer if he'd been allowed to. Wink

Oh, and check out the just-different-enough-not-to-get-sued version of A Whole New World playing in the background. Laughing

that was freaking awesome. for ROJ and the series, I would hear "Homer". This episode, I can distinguish the difference between the two. that was so funny. He does sound more like Robin in this one.

Maybe Robin has cooled off some more so Dan can get closer without crossing the legal line Laughing

I think it's more that Disney has a contract with Robin saying they can't hire someone to imitate him when they play Genie, and Fox doesn't. Wink
