When last we checked in on 'The Simpsons' famous couch gags, the long-running animated series paid tribute to the animated works of Hayao Miyazaki, before that turning in gags from the likes of Guillermo del Toro, and Peter Jackson.

The recent buzz of toy news brought confirmation that 'The Simpsons' would be going LEGO for an upcoming installment, though few details of the topical concept episode were known. Now, we've learned exactly when "Brick Like Me" will premiere, along with the bizarre twist that leads to Homer finding both himself and the rest of Springfield made entirely of LEGO!

Naturally, something as prominent and marketable as that has managed to worm its way into every kind of merchandising opportunity available, but everyone's favorite yellow family has crossed into the final frontier. Yep

Earlier this year, the passing of 'Simpsons' icon and Ms. Krabappel voice Marcia Wallace led to a few improvised tributes to the fallen actress, but the FOX animation staple may have saved the best for last in 2013. Find out how this past Sunday's couch gag for "White Christmas Blues" paid homage to both Wallace and late writer Don Payne right here!

FX's spinoff network FXX has proven something of a challenge for the company in its initial months, recently forcing 'Totally Biased with W.
