Del Toro’s Couch Gag

Everyone’s right: The Simpsons haven’t been funny for years. Maybe five, maybe ten—I’ve lost count. But the Halloween specials still work. This year’s Treehouse of Horror couch gag was done by Guillermo del Toro, the guy behind Hellboy and Pan’s Labyrinth. And it’s genuinely good. Good enough that I’d watch it again and again if I had the time. But it’s Friday, and I don’t.
