The segment was executive producer Bill Oakley's idea and included live-action directed by David Mirkin. At the time (1995), it was unusual for a television show to use such animation. ![]() On occasion, the episodes will be used to showcase special animation, such as the " Treehouse of Horror VI" segment "Homer 3", in which a computer-animated Homer is shown in a non-animated setting. One of the season 34 Treehouse of Horror specials, " Not It", is distinguished by its uncharacteristic title and one full-length segment (divided in the two parts). " Treehouse of Horror XXXII" featured five segments. From season 15's " Treehouse of Horror XIV" to season 33's " Treehouse of Horror XXXII", however, only one writer was credited with writing each Treehouse of Horror episode. For the original "Treehouse of Horror", there were three different directors for the episode. In some cases there was a fourth writer who wrote the opening and wraparound segments. From " Treehouse of Horror" to " Treehouse of Horror XIII" and resuming with " Treehouse of Horror XXXIII", all three segments were written by different writers. The number of episodes of Treehouse of Horrors matches the number of series of the show: there are no such specials in season 1, two in season 34 and one in each other season. ![]() The episodes are considered to be non- canon, which means they take place outside the normal continuity of the show. Some have recurring elements, such as " Treehouse of Horror V", in which Groundskeeper Willie is killed by an axe in all three segments. Although they are sometimes connected by "wraparounds", the three segments rarely have any kind of continuing connection within the episode. These segments usually have a horror, science fiction or fantasy theme and quite often are parodies of films, novels, plays, television shows, Twilight Zone episodes, or old issues of EC Comics. Treehouse of Horror episodes typically consist of four parts: an opening and Halloween-themed version of the credits, followed by three segments. Treehouse of Horror episodes have earned high ratings and broad popularity, spawning a steady stream of merchandise, including an ongoing comic book series. In addition to parodies of horror, science fiction, and fantasy films, episodes include the recurring alien characters Kang and Kodos, unique opening sequences, and 'scary' pseudonyms in the credits. The eponymous first installment " Treehouse of Horror" aired on October 25, 1990, during the second season, broadly inspired by EC Comics horror tales. ![]() Each Treehouse of Horror episode is numbered in Roman numerals, one less than the respective season it is in. Each segment involves the Simpson family in some comical horror, science fiction, or supernatural setting plot elements operate beyond the show's normal continuity, with segments exaggeratedly more morbid and violent than a typical Simpsons episode. Also known as The Simpsons Halloween Specials, each episode typically consists of three separate, self-contained segments. Treehouse of Horror is an annual series of special Halloween-themed anthology episodes of the animated sitcom The Simpsons, with 34 episodes as of 2022.

Most Pac-People have circle based names (Cylindra = cylinder, Sir Cumference = circumference, Spheros = sphere, Skeebo = ski-ball, Spiral = spiral, etc.) Aside from accessories like hats, jewelry and shoes, most of the clothing Pac-Worlders wear is nothing but sleeves for their arms and legs. They come in different colors and sizes, but yellow Pac-Worlders are known for being able to eat ghosts. The Pac-Worlders are a race consisting of spherical bodies with arms and legs attached to them. On some digital services, the specials were released separately from the rest of the series, under the titles Pac’s Scary Halloween (combining parts 1 and 2) and Santa Pac’s Merry Berry Day (combining episodes #13 and #25). The Halloween and Christmas specials were both part of Season 2 officially, but went unaired until their actual holidays. “Season 2” was actually produced in two separate, thirteen-episode sets however, the 26 episodes together have been officially classified as the second and final season.

His athleticism and explosiveness were unlike any player Boston has had in recent memory. Williams III was a joy to watch and a pleasure to chronicle. The answer has been a resounding "Yes." From trading Kemba Walker in his first days on the job, to now dealing both Smart and Williams III this offseason, Stevens has routinely made the difficult decision with a singular goal of improving Boston’s title chances. Would Stevens be able to make the difficult decisions with a focus on the ultimate prize? When Stevens took over as president of basketball operations two years ago, the big question was whether he would be able to detach the emotion that exists when you coach players. Portland deserves credit for finding a way to maximize the return on Lillard’s departure. The Blazers get two first-round picks and can try to flip Brogdon to a contender with the potential to add more young talent and draft capital. Williams III joins fellow new addition Deandre Ayton in Portland’s new-look frontcourt that gushes with potential. Coming off his first truly healthy offseason as a pro, there were hopes that Williams III could take his game to new heights, particularly given Boston’s health woes at the center position.īut the Blazers held firm in their desire to maximize Holiday’s value. When healthy, Williams III was a difference-maker who pushed Boston’s ceiling skyward. ![]() The pain point, of course, is having to include Williams III in the deal. Boston added an All-Star talent capable of accentuating the team’s best players, all while reestablishing some of the defensive DNA that was lost when the team had to send out Smart instead of Brogdon as part of the Porzingis acquisition. Sunday’s deal eliminates that uncertainty, while upgrading the guard position. The team was left crossing its fingers that Brogdon would be healthy and happy this season - all with limited communication between the two sides in advance of the season - and his name was certain to stay in trade rumors. ![]() Brogdon won Sixth Man of the Year but his defensive deficiencies were highlighted during Boston’s postseason run and an arm injury limited his overall postseason impact.Ī failed attempt to include Brogdon in an original deal to acquire Porzingis added another layer of complexity to Brogdon’s future in Boston. The move to add him was universally praised as Boston shipped out only end-of-the-roster pieces and a first-round pick, all to add a player who bolstered an inconsistent bench and was dubbed the “missing piece” from Boston’s 2022 title quest. !function()() īrogdon’s 15 months in Boston were a fast burn. If Brad Stevens’ roster overhaul works as intended, Boston should very much be in the title mix next June. Boston now has four legitimate All-Star level players in Tatum, Brown, Porzingis, and Holiday, all while keeping Derrick White and Al Horford on the roster.īoston will enter the 2023-24 season with as much top-end talent as any team in the NBA. Much like the Smart deal, the Celtics are setting aside emotion in a unrelenting quest to secure the banner that has evaded them despite some insanely talented rosters over the past half decade. And the Celtics and Bucks seem on a collision course for Eastern Conference supremacy. Holiday shouldn’t lack for motivation against Milwaukee. It also doesn’t hurt that Holiday was just jettisoned by the Bucks as the headline piece in Milwaukee’s trade that returned Damian Lillard. Holiday arrives after playing a pivotal role in helping Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks to a banner. For all their talent and successes, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown haven’t been able to get over the last hump and secure a banner. The Celtics now have a player who knows what it takes to get to the mountaintop. But it’s the 2021 championship he won with the Milwaukee Bucks that made him especially intriguing to Boston. Holiday’s resume includes two All-Star appearances (2013, 2023) and five All-Defense selections. Three months after acquiring Kristaps Porzingis in a deal that sent out defensive stalwart Marcus Smart, the Celtics secured Jrue Holiday in a deal that shipped off Robert Williiams III and Malcolm Brogdon. The Boston Celtics bookended their offseason with jaw-dropping trades that returned All-Star talent. |
