News The Simpsons The Simpsons Holiday Special Has Homer Believing He’s Santa By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on December 11, 2024 Credit: Disney+ Comment 0 Share New Share Credit: Disney+ Two brand-new, Christmas-infused episodes of The Simpsons are coming our way this December. The special, called “O C’mon All Ye Faithful,” lands thirty-five years(!) after the premiere of the first Simpsons Christmas special in 1989, which was lovingly titled “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire.” We got a very brief trailer for it today, which reveals that Homer sincerely believes he’s Santa, something that appears to get him tazed at some point, among other things. Here’s the official synopsis: Famed British mentalist, Derren Brown, comes to Springfield and uses psychological tricks and showmanship to raise the town’s Christmas spirit. When Homer gets hypnotized and mistakenly believes he is Santa Claus, it sets off a cheery chain-reaction and causes everyone to question what they believe and to explore the meaning of “miracle.” In addition to Brown, who tries to convince Homer that he is not, in fact, Santa, the special features musical performances by Patti LaBelle and Pentatonix. It also, according to this thirty-second clip, has Marge receive sexy Sudoku as a gift, and sees Homer crash into Moe’s while in the throes of his Santa delusion.   The latest Simpsons holiday special premieres on Disney+ on December 17, 2024. Check out the trailer below, and happy holidays! [end-mark] The post <i>The Simpsons</i> Holiday Special Has Homer Believing He’s Santa appeared first on Reactor.
