November 2, 2003: Treehouse
of Horror XIV: The annual
Halloween trilogy opens Season 15 — making this the longest running
comedy in TV history — with guest voices by Jerry Lewis, Jennifer
Garner and Oscar De La Hoya. In the imaginative free-for-all,
Homer assumes the duties of the Grim Reaper after knocking off Death
with a bowling ball. Then Lewis goes on a rampage as the father of
Professor Frink, who's presented a Nobel Prize by Garner. Finally, De La
Hoya takes a beating and Principal Skinner loses his pants when Bart and
Milhouse stop time with a 49-cent "miracle watch."

President Wore Pearls: Lisa is made to look like Eva Peron
