"Funeral for a Fiend" is an upcoming episode of The Simpsons' nineteenth season. It will feature Kelsey Grammer in his tenth guest appearance as Sideshow Bob, as well as David Hyde Pierce in his second appearance as Cecil Terwilliger and John Mahoney will make his first appearance as the father of Bob and Cecil. Keith Olbermann also makes a guest appearance as himself.[1]

Plot

The show's second promotional picture: The death of Sideshow Bob.

After dreaming that Keith Olbermann makes fun of her for fast forwarding through TV ads, Marge becomes fascinated with watching commercials, influencing the family to visit a rib restaurant after hearing about it in an ad. This, however, is a plot from Sideshow Bob so that he can get his revenge against the Simpsons for ages of their constant meddling. The plan nearly succeeds, but Bob is caught and put on trial where his father blames Sideshow Bob's psychosis on Bart. During the proceedings, Bart accidentally kills his old nemesis, and Bob's brother Cecil invites Bart to attend the memorial service.

Cultural references

  • The episode title is a reference to the Elton John song "Funeral for a Friend".
  • The family layout in the popular series Frasier is repeated in this episode; Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde Pierce play brothers in both series, while John Mahoney plays their father.
