Luck o’ the Simpsons

Mar 20, 2009

For the first time it its 20-year history, a Simpsons episode was shown in the United Kingdom before America. The St Patrick's Day show, called “In The Name Of The Grandfather,” was premiered on Tuesday in the U.K. In the episode, the cartoon family traveled to Ireland and visited famous landmarks, such as the Giant's Causeway and the Blarney Castle.

But, as we all know, things never go smoothly for the Simpsons and trouble follows Homer and his father to an Irish pub.


This episode is not the first in which the Simpsons have traveled abroad. They have also visited countries such as Brazil, France and Australia.
