‘The Simpsons’ to get Lego Makeover

TV’s most famous family will be the next to get a Lego treatment, with an all-Lego episode of The Simpsons to air May 4th.

The episode, titled “Brick Like Me” will see Homer wake up in a new kind of Springfield – one in which everyone and everything is made out of Legos.  As the episode’s logline asks: “Can he ‘put together’ how he got there and somehow figure out how to get home before he is stuck in a world of bricks forever?”

The special Lego episode is also the series’ 550th show.

But wait, there’s more!

You can also own your own set of Simpsons Legos, with this 2,500+ piece set that includes lego versions of Homer, Marge, Lisa, Bart, Maggie and Ned Flanders.  Just be prepared for that $199.99 price tag.

The Simpsons returns with two new episodes on March 9th, beginning at 7:30 PM, and beginning in August 2014 FXX will become the show’s cable home and begin airing the previous 24 seasons in syndication.
