You may remember Troy McClure from such films as The Contrabulous Fabtraption of Professor Horatio Hufnagel, The Erotic Adventures of Hercules, and The Muppets go Medieval. You might also remember Troy McClure from such educational films or self-help videos as Dig Your Own Grave and Save, Fuzzy Bunny's Guide to You-Know-What, and Lead Paint: Delicious But Deadly.

I love the fact they dedicated 10% of the episode to this one joke and kept delivering iconic zingers

[valdivia]

"....from Chim-pan-a to chim-pan-zee" has made me laugh for 20 something years.

[affanjamsari]

Just the fact that Phil Hartman absolutely nailed the high note during the “I CAN SING!” part of the musical is absolutely astounding.

[davidnissim]

The guy who came up with "chimpan-A to chimpan-Z" deserves an award

[TheAngryGamer]

I love the fact that they just decide to put the whole episode on pause just for this joke. Worth it XD

[luckyDancer]

Honestly I would pay good money to see this whole musical😂😂

[Rojixus]

The "I LOVE YOU, DOCTOR ZAIUS!" at the end kills me every time.

Can we just appreciate for a second that Troy's agent is voiced by Jeff Goldblum

[KKAkuoku]

Can we all travel to the alternate universe where Phil Hartman not only had a stable, healthy marriage but also lived long enough to voice Zapp Brannigan?

"Troy, ever hear of Planet of the Apes?"


"uhhh the movie or the planet?"


This is why the 90s Simpsons were so great

"HE CAN TALK!"

"HE CAN TALK!"
"HE CAN TALK!"

You have to wonder what type of illegitimate theatre Homer has been watching

[davidk]

The writing of this musical that they made up for one episode has more creativity and comedy in it than entire seasons of newer Simpsons.

I remember cracking up on the breakdance part but the beat is dope

[ntcnetwork]

A subtler gag in this masterpiece of a sequence, but I always loved how annoyed Dr. Zaius looked when the nurse hid behind him. 😂

Fun fact: In Universal Orlando, in the Kwik-E-Mart store, this plays on the two TVs in the store, looping the same clips every ~28 minutes and making the poor people working inside go absolutely senile with You'll Never Make A Monkey Out Of Me playing nonstop in their heads for all eternity?
Please help Ive only been working here for a month

“Can I play the piano anymore?” “Of course you can.” “Well I couldn’t before.”
Haha

[RustyMew]

This is proof that you can make a musical out of anything, and it can still be really good if you put your heart into it.

- Celebrity cameos that aren't just "Hey, look at this guy we got to apear on the show, isn't that crazy?!"
- Troy McClure
- Clever writing going hand in hand with absolute nonsense
- Fireworks, flames and/or explosions out of nowhere
- References to works of fiction or historical events that actually matter
- Song breaks

Fuck, I miss oldschool Simpsons

Hi I’m actor Troy McClure. You might remember me from…
such self-help videos as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”
