‘The Simpsons’ Sings Musical Number About Homer Not Wanting to Buy Marge Tampons (EXCLUSIVE)


In an exclusive clip from the episode 'Women in Shorts,' 'The Simpsons' sings a song about Homer not wanting to buy tampons for Marge.

“ The Simpsons ” has been in an experimental mode as of late, trying big swings like its “series finale” Season 36 premiere and its recent, spot-on parody of “The White Lotus.” This week, the show is once again playing with its format — via the sketch comedy-inspired “Women in Shorts” episode. Writer Christine Nangle, who penned the episode, has a sketch background (“Saturday Night Live,” “Inside Amy Schumer,” “Kroll Show”) and hails from the Upright Citizen’s Brigade, so trying it on “The Simpsons” made sense. As seen in the clip shared with Variety, Homer (Dan Castellaneta) is too chicken to buy feminine hygiene products for Marge (Julie Kavner) — and the store clerks (voiced by Dawnn Lewis and Tony Rodriguez) shame him via song and dance, in “Incompetent Husband,” a number composed by Kara Talve.
