‘The Simpsons’ to air ‘comedic’ documentary for ‘Homer at the Bat’

“The Simpsons” will pay tribute to perhaps its most celebrated episode — at least among its myriad sports-themed entries — with an hour-long “comedic” documentary about “Homer at the Bat.”

“Springfield of Dreams: The Legend of Homer Simpson,” set to air Sunday on FOX, is a parody of Ken Burns’ iconic “Baseball” miniseries and touts renowned documentarian Morgan Spurlock as its director, per an EW.com report.

The special “will pay tribute to the episode while offering up interviews from eight of the baseball stars who appeared as ringers in the episode, as well as Yankees All-Star Aaron Judge, Nick Offerman, Russell Brand, George Will, Tim Gunn, and Dr. Oz, not to mention sportscasters Bob Costas, Joe Buck, Bob Uecker, and Charissa Thompson. In addition, the documentary includes ‘interviews’ with Homer, Moe, Chief Wiggum, Apu, and Comic Book Guy.”
