 == History ==
 When [[742 Evergreen Terrace|the Simpson home]] was being fumigated to clear out an infestation of Russian termites (and was uninhabitable for six months), the family auditioned to appear on ''The 1895 Challenge'' because they would have a place to live if they won. The Simpsons did win the audition, beating out [[Bill Cosby]] and his family, and appeared on the show.
-At first the Simpsons constantly bemoaned the inconveniences of living a 19th-century lifestyle, which delighted the show's producers because the drama made for good television. Later, however, they pulled together as a family and came to enjoy living in the 19th century, which disappointed the producers because their newfound family harmony made for boring television -- and, consequently, lower ratings.

 In an effort to spice things up and boost the show's ratings, the producers introduced [[Squiggy]] into the show as a new character and had him live with the family. When that didn't get the numbers as high as the producers wanted, they next had a flood wash the house down a river and eventually destroy it.

 In the end, the Simpsons got revenge on the producers. They teamed up with a number of other abandoned reality show contestants in the woods, who ganged up on the crew and overpowered them, forcing the crewmembers to take them back to civilization.
