'The Simpsons' Get Bitten by 'Twilight'

newed.jpgYou know you've arrived as a pop cultural icon when you're spoofed by The Simpsons. Well, they may be a little late in the game on this pop culture gem, but they are taking a stab at it anyway. In the 21 installment of The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror special will take aim at the two hottest things in popular culture right now: Vampires and Twilight.

In the episode titled "Tweenlight," Lisa becomes smitten with a new mysterious, pale, brooding student, Edmund (get it, not Edward). Edmund (voiced by another pop culture phenomenon: Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe) has a dark reason for his appeal, he's a vampire. Lisa falls for Edmund and the pair run away together to "Dracula-la Land" (I don't get the reference). Homer sets off to rescue Lisa before she gives in to Edmunds charms completely and turns into a vampire herself.
