The Itchy & Scratchy Show Episode Information Pun: Field of Dreams Season: 2 First appearance: "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge"

"Field of Screams" is an episode of The Itchy & Scratchy Show.

Plot

Itchy and Scratchy are in a baseball stadium, standing at either side of home plate and continuously hitting each other over the head with baseball bats. A squirrel resembling Marge Simpson comes along, tells Itchy and Scratchy to stop what they're doing, and stands on home plate, right between them. Annoyed, Itchy swings at the squirrel's head and knocks it off of her shoulders and out of the park. Itchy and Scratchy then smile and shake hands.

The short was produced as revenge against Marge, who had been organizing rallies to eliminate cartoon violence.
