I’ll admit, I don’t watch The Simpsons anymore but I am oh so happy to see they recently did a parody of HBO’s Game of Thrones. And not just that, a really good parody. It was part of their opening couch bit on last night’s show and their animators erected Springfield in the style of the gear-ridden (and extremely well-done) Game of Thrones intro we all know and love. Plus, they even used the music! Good times.
