Oh yea I was hoping he was referring to a new project, and I still think he is because by the way he said it. But the Simpson's appearance also fits the description. I guess we'll see.

Pardon me while I be ridiculous.

In this episode (in my mind), they will be like their TV characters, but slightly off. Brent and Jermaine (not Bret and Jemaine! :#fingerwave#: ) are from Australia (why does everyone keep asking if they're from NZ?) and there's a bit of a Bert &
Ernie situation going on. :#evilgrin#:

Ok, I'll stop. Razz

Speaking of guest stars, Fox recently announced the plethora of guest stars you have for Season 22. I was wondering if you could talk a bit about the season premiere, Elementary School Musical, with Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie from Flight of the Conchords and some Glee cast members as well. It sounds like a great way to get the season started. What more can you tell us about this season premiere?

Al Jean: Elementary School Musical, written by Tim Long, has Lisa spending a week at arts camp, where Jemaine and Bret are the counselors, featuring original songs by the Conchords. When Lisa returns to real life, she is very unhappy, until she visits Jemaine and Bret at home and discovers the life of an artist isn't all it's cracked up to be. In the b-story, Krusty goes to Europe to accept the Nobel Peace Prize, but it turns out to be a Roman Polanski-style sting.

First look! :#excited#: :#excited#: :#excited#:

When THE SIMPSONS return for their twenty-second season on September 26, they’ll be doing so with a little help from their friends. In a move that is surely “corporate synergy” to Rupert Murdoch’s ears, GLEE stars Lea Michele (pictured above), Amber Riley and Cory Monteith will voice just a few of the musically inclined campers that encourage Lisa to embrace her creative side when Marge surprises her with a week-long retreat at a performing arts camp while Bart and Homer are off accompanying Krusty to accept his Nobel Peace Prize. More first look photos of “Elementary School Musical” — including a look at the artsy camp counsellors voiced by FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie — can be found after the jump.

Yea I had figured they'd base it off the TV! B&

Some Jemaine salt and pepper hair would have won me over though. Razz

I thought Jemaine looked slightly angry too :#lol#:
I agree with the discussion on facebook, an animal tee on Bret would have been cool, but I don't mind. :#love3#:

Honestly, I'm a bit underwhelmed. I didn't want them to look like themselves. Sad

Don't know why, I just thought it would be more fun that way. They look good, it's just not what I was hoping for.

I think Jemaine looks a little better than Bret, but I bet it's harder to make Bret into a Simpsons character...

Mon Aug 30, 2010 12:08 am

They look brilliant! A lot of times, guests fall into that Simpsons character look so well, that they are unrecognizable. But, there is NO mistaking these two, yet they still fit within the world. Great job! I can't wait for this!!!
