I guess it's because they specifically react to Homer and Ron fighting. Maybe it's one of the rare cases where they still animate the characters live on the air.

Maybe they were just like holograms or something. I'm pretty sure they appeared in the real world in another random episode that I don't remember. Just, why?
Some helpful tips for newbies: http://www.wikihow.com/Appreciate-%22The-Simpsons%22
I came across something Simpsons related that doesn't really belong in its own thread, so I thought I'd start a "catch-all" place for things like this.
Anyway, according to a strict reading of the latest Emmy rules, choreography done for The Simpsons (or any other animated program, for that matter) is no longer eligible for the Choreography Emmy. Costumes, yes (and, in fact, Titan Maximum won a Costuming Emmy a few years ago), but choreography, no.
Yes, the show has had a credited choreographer - in "The Girl Code," Homer's dance in the Greek restaurant was choreographed by So You Think You Can Dance? finalist Courtney Galiano.
Merged with the original catch-all thread.
I know it wouldn't really fit the pacing, but I wish at least one DVD episode had a bonus audio track with a laugh track added in, just to see what a whole episode of that would be like.

The Simpsons are doing a panel at the Tribeca Film Festival
Shearer doing an event for the show is surprisingThe Simpsons – 30th Anniversary
In the thirty years since The Simpsons first debuted, the satirical cartoon has become the very center of popular culture; a juggernaut that is ingrained in the cultural fabric of America. In the three decades it has been on the air, the show has influenced popular culture, media and politics by brilliantly and incisively depicting the ridiculous pageant of American society. Following a screening of the episodes Marge vs the Monorail and The Day the Earth Stood Cool, the creative team of The Simpsons will come together to celebrate the immeasurable legacy of the longest-running animated series in television history.
After the Screening: A conversation with executive producers James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Al Jean and Matt Selman, and the voice of many Harry Shearer. Moderated by the voice of Lisa Simpson Yeardley Smith.
Event time: April 28 at 5:00 PM, BMCC

In an episode of Boy Meets World, they reference Krusty being the son of a rabbi.
Transcribing a moment from a Talking Simpsons episode I thought was interesting (I think the show should be put out of its misery but if it has to continue....)
Bob: One announcement I hope they make [at D23] is that, "we're going to be spending more money on producing this show!" because last night on a whim I was on Hulu and kinda bored and tired from working and I was like, "oh, I'll put on The Simpsons Season 30, I haven't watched one of these in a while" and I put it on and they're still funny, but man does it look cheap. It's like one step above Bob's Burgers; you're allowed to do a few, like, bespoke, original animated scenes but it's very, very puppety.
Henry: So puppety, they're just like nailed into place onscreen, it just feels so empty at times.
Bob: And no music.
Henry: Yeah.
Bob: I just want Disney to say, "we'll spend money on The Simpsons again," please!
Henry: ...With Star Wars they made it a big deal of, like, "we made sure to get John Williams, we hired back the Kasdan guy, we did all this stuff to be right by fans." So if they wanted to earn fan amity already, then they would hire back Alf Clausen. Be like, "we, Disney is paying ourselves for Alf Clausen to do this, it's out of our pocket."
Bob: I hope so, I mean Fox has been really disrespectful of The Simpsons. I mean, they always have been, they always kinda resented it.

This is why I'm surprised Season 8 is difficult to like for some people. The showcase alone was such a fantastic episode in my opinion.
