TV Show Information
|
Battling Seizure Robots (戦闘ロボットシージャー Sentou Robotto Shījā) is a Japanese TV show which the Simpsons see while they're vacationing in Japan.
Bart notices the show on TV and says, "Isn't that show supposed to cause seizures?" Immediately afterwards, he is having a seizure. Soon, everyone but Homer is having a seizure. Homer doesn't know what's up with everyone rolling on the floor and babbling incoherently, but he figures he'll go along with it, so he starts rolling and babbling on purpose. When a commerical comes on, everyone's seizures stop. When the show resumes, so do the seizures, this time also affecting Homer.
The show seems to be about giant robots battling each other. The flashes from their weapons cause the seizures.
