Episode Information
Showrunner: [[{{{showrunner}}}]]



"The Man Who Came to Be Dinner" is the 10th episode of season 26. It originally aired in January 4, 2015.

Synopsis

"During a trip to "Dizzneeland", the Simpsons board the wrong ride, Rocket to Your Doom, and are transported through the galaxy to Kang and Kodos' home planet, where they are held captive at the local zoo and the inhabitants decide to eat Homer."


Production

The episode was originally scheduled to air on May 19, 2013 as the finale of season 24, but was replaced by "Dangers on a Train";[1] so as a result, the production code is much older than the rest of season 26.

The explanation for the episode being delayed was explained on Twitter by Al Jean on December 31, 2014 and later by writer David Mirkin on January 3, 2015. Both said the episode was explored as a second The Simpsons Movie option.[2][3]

Reception

The episode was viewed by a total of 10.51 million viewers, so it is, as of January 2015, the most watched episode from Season 26.[4]
