Best. Apple Parody. In. Quite. A While.

I’m sorry to say that I fell out of the habit of my Simpsons Sunday-night ritual a long, long time ago. So I missed last night’s episode, which involved a consumer-electronics company known as…Mapple. You know, the one that makes Mipods and Miphones.
Here (thanks, Engadget) are highlights (in two parts, until Fox yanks them off YouTube). They’re good enough that I’m going to try and remember to start making time for the Simps again…
(UPDATE: Based on feedback from commenters JEF and Vox–thanks!–I’m also embedding the whole episode via Hulu, but leaving the YouTube versions up, too.)

Why not just embed from Hulu so they don’t get yanked?

Because Hulu only is available to US viewers, which means that a lot of people wouldn’t be able to see the clips, including me 🙂
So…please stay away from Hulu until they allow non-US access.
