Synopsis

Chubbo and the Stinker: It'll be the first segment and is a parody of Jaws and The Blob, set in the 1970s Springfield, where two characters get killed off when a monster created from sentient lard, named the "fatburg", takes over Springfield, feeding on human fat. First, Chief Wiggum is killed, but the big death is Bart Simpson, who, it's revealed, is drained of all his lard and dies.

Untitled segment: It features a giant hat on a catapult, an hatapult, due to a character only knowing how to hit things with hats.

Untitled segment: Krusty makes a deal with the devil on his live Halloween special.

Untitled segment: In a poseable plastic post-apocalyptic future, Bart and Lisa fight for the future of humanity.

Production

The introductory couch gag was created by The Onion's political cartoonist Stan Kelly.
