References to Pulp Fiction in The Simpsons

Episodes

Picture Season Episode number Episode name Reference
7 149 "22 Short Films About Springfield" The episode has a number of major references to Quentin Tarantino film, Pulp Fiction:
  • Like Pulp Fiction, the episode's plot is episodic and interconnected.
  • The whole of the Chief Wiggum, Snake and Herman plot is based on the "Gold Watch" segment of the film. Numerous shots are almost identical to the film such as when Snake hits Wiggum with his car and when Herman points his gun at them both.
  • Wiggum, Lou and Eddie's conversation about the difference between Krusty Burger and McDonald's parallels the famous "Royale With Cheese" discussion between Vince Vega and Jules Winnfield over the difference between McDonald's in Europe and the USA.
8 166 "Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious" In "Reservoir Cats", Itchy and Scratchy dance in a manner similar to the dance in Pulp Fiction. The song that plays during the dance is "Misirlou" by Dick Dale, the theme song for Pulp Fiction.
11 234 "Take My Wife, Sleaze" The dance contest at a 50s-themed restaurant is similar to the one in the movie.
12 250 "A Tale of Two Springfields" The scene with Homer, Lenny and Carl having lunch in the nuclear power plant has a reference to the movie Pulp Fiction. While writing the new area code on his hand, Homer complains that he already has enough things to remember and a close-up of his hand shows the writing "Lenny White, Carl Black." This is a reference to the second last scene in Pulp Fiction, in which The Wolf is called to help resolve a problem. On a pad of paper before he meets up with Vincent and Jules, he writes "Vincent-White, Jules-Black" in order to distinguish between the two.
Pulp Fiction.png 22 480 "A Midsummer's Nice Dreams" Uma Thurman dances with Kent parodying the famous dance scene from Pulp Fiction.
250px 24 526 "Pulpit Friction" The episode title is a reference to the movie Pulp Fiction.
25 546 "You Don't Have to Live Like a Referee" A suitcase with shining contents offered by gangsters.

The Simpsons Movie

Picture Reference
