Best Groening on Groening moment

[on:]

Of Groening's big 3 (Simpsons, Futrama, Life in Hell), what's the best instance when one of these makes a reference to or takes a humorous jab at another.  My favorite would have to be when the Pimple face kid on the Simpsons screams, "Why did they cancel Futurama?" then jumps off a cliff.

The best is definitely Matt Groening's appearance in the Simpsons episode with this comic convention, where he's introduced as the creator of 'Futurama'.

I thought that when Homer ran over the house Matt Groening was born in was funny, although it really doesn't have anything do do with his other works, or Simpsons, just himself.

Well, of course you don't JDB, it hasn't aired here. It was We're on the Road to D'ohwhere.

In Futurama when Bender eats Bart Simpsons shorts.

I also liked in SpacePilot 3000 how we see Blinky, as well as MG's and Apu's heads in jars

Apu?! You're gonna have to get me a screenshot of that!

(Oh hell, I'll find it myself)

Yeah, I never saw Apu's head.

I like when Matt was actually on the show. Whe3n he signed Milhouse's Bender action figure.

It's not Groening, but I loved in the Trading Spouses episode when we saw Dan Castellaneta. It was really cool.

Yeah, I like Futurama in the Simpsons. And adding groening was a good touch.
