"The Day the Earth Stood Cool"[1] (also known as "The Day the Earth Stayed Cool"[2]) is the seventh episode of season 24. It was set to air on December 2, 2012[3], but was then moved to December 9, 2012.[4]

Synopsis

Homer befriends Terrence (Fred Armisen) and Emily (Carrie Brownstein), new neighbors from Portland. Homer becomes like Terrence because he wants a younger, hipper image. When Bart gets into a fight with Terrance and Emily's son T-Rex (Patton Oswalt), the friendship becomes strained and Terrence, angry at the Simpsons, calls his friends from Portland, and Springfield is soon full with 'cool' people. Meanwhile, Marge feels uncomfortable around Emily and her friends when they are breastfeeding, and she is feeding Maggie from the bottle.

Plot

Reception

An update was released on The Simpsons: Tapped Out to tie-in with the episode, which referred to this episode as airing December 2, 2012 (not directly). The update was later re-released, and when it was, it referred to the episode as airing December 9, 2012 (not directly), the correct date.

Production

On December 10, 2012, the storyboard, the animatic and the full color images of three scenes from the episode were posted on Pinterest. A few images also showed Emily's original design.
