The Best of "Shows Within Shows"

Nothing beats Psycho Dad from Married... With Children:

There's of course Krusty The Clown and by extension Itchy and Scratchy from The Simpsons

Sick, Sad World from Daria. I'd watch that.

Ironic.

Two Matt greoning (I probably spelt that wrong) shows in the same thread,plus to add the confidences isn’t Leela from Futurama also voiced the wife from married with children (which I haven’t seen) because that would make three somehow interconnected shows in a row on the same thread.


Irony.

Ironically you made a typo while spelling Futurama as well,but yeah I knew I spelt it wrong and I was in a rush when typing the post so that’s why I didn’t bother to check.

me too!

One “show within a show” that especially stands out to me is from an episode of Rugrats which showed a flashback of Stu and Drew fighting as babies (in black and white because it was the late 50s or early 60s). In it, they watched this show that blatantly ripped off Rocky and Bullwinkle (and even had parodies of Boris and Natasha too!). Now that I’m a Rocky and Bullwinkle fan, I realized that this “show within a show” was my first true introduction to the real thing.
(Also it gets bonus points because June Foray, the voice of Rocky and Natasha, voiced parodies of those characters in it)
