Close Enough: The Simpsons’ reference

[briankrueger]

What’s really funny is that this is the kind of joke the Simpsons would do.

The Mordecai outfit was bound to happen someday

[BabyLambCreations]

Funny enough, Regular Show (Close Enough’s predecessor) did their own take on “Treehouse of Horror” by releasing a series of anthology-styled Halloween episodes every year in October called “Terror Tales of the Park”.

Man, I was so surprised that they mentioned the simpsons especially treehouse of horror and Emily said it’s a Halloween tradition. Also, I'm against the whole world series events that keeps postponing the TOH specials.

I love how one of the characters is dressed as jubilee from X-Men.

[nickwerner]

Josh is dressed up as Mordecai. Another one of JG Quintel’s characters he previously voiced in Regular Show the entire series.

[DanielZ-nvzg]

The fact that josh is mordecai opens up the theory that this is just regular show in another dimension.

[FanfictionReader]

Imagine if a character that sounds like Rigby showed up!?

[avenue.central]

I lost my shit at this call back to Regular Show 🤣

[georgehiscott]

That baseball bit reminds me of that Treehouse of horror where Kang and Kodos spurred up the baseball game with they accelerate ray

This is very accurate as there have been many times I hoped to see new Simpsons at its regularly scheduled time only to find it TBD depending on how boring the sports ball competitions end up being.

The real Simpsons reference Is that three house of horror was delayed by a baseball match in one of the opening skits

[ekstarlord]

I love it when TV shows makes references two other franchises like how Josh is wearing a Mordecai costume and Bridget is wearing a jubilee costume

[HiddenMistEnforcer]

This is such a relatable joke, that Dan Vs made an entire episode about it.

[obsidianstag]

I know Josh wearing the Blue jay outfit is a reference to JG Quintel voicing Mordecai in Regular Show, as well as being the creator of both Regular Show & Close Enough, but honestly it looks more like he skinned Mordecai and is wearing his flesh rather than a costume of him

[skeet]

No one going to talk about solid snake in the box?

[residente]

So we have:
Josh as Mordecai
Emily as Prince
Candice as Chucky
Randy as Solid Snake
Bridgette as Jubilee
Pearle as Morpheus in Matrix: Resurrections
Alex as himself

[MrReditachi]

Mordecai has been skinned and is now being worn as a suit

[reydiantskyes]

Heh, one of the executive producers of this show is Bill Oakley, one of the showrunners for The Simpsons

[manoftruth]

Nail on the head, especially the fact that every new treehouse of horror gets pushed back later and later.
