"Four Regrettings and a Funeral" is the five hundred and thirty-third episode of The Simpsons and third episode of the twenty-fifth season.
Synopsis
Four Springfielders are prompted to try to right past regrets following the funeral of a beloved neighbor. Homer regrets selling his Apple stock to buy a bowling ball, Marge worries she caused Bart’s rebellious streak, Mr. Burns reminisces about a romance he gave up with a beautiful Parisian woman and Kent Brockman admits he was too afraid to leave local news and follow his former partner Rachel Maddow (guest appearing as herself) to cable news.[1]
Production
The episode guest-stared Joe Namath and Rachel Maddow both as themselves.[2]
The episode featured a tribute to Marcia Wallace, who died nine days before the episode aired.[3]
A scene was cut from the final episode. In this scene, in a moment of truth during Brockman's meeting at the Fox News, Aaron Sorkin appears in a thought bubble above Brockman's head and advises the anchor on whether or not he should work for the cable channel.[2]
Original credits
There was another set of credits to be aired as a tribute to Chip Davis. However, due to Marcia Wallace's tribute instead, the credits were cut from the original airing of the episode. Each scene in the credits is from a previous episode and shows where Chip was in each of these. In the original airing of each of these scenes, Chip was not in any of them. These credits were put into subsequent airings of the episode (International/Online version).
