This is in regards to the Arizona supreme court allowing an 1864 abortion ban to take effect. The comic is playing on the stereotype that Mormons, who mostly live in Utah, practiced piligamy, having multiple wives, in 1864.

$pringfield would be my first guess just because that episode is all about legalized gambling. I don't remember what looks like Moe's being a part of that episode though.

Of course I could be completely wrong and this is a one off joke from a completely different episode.

Mike Wallace was a journalist on the TV show _60 Minutes _ and this comic is likely a take on journalists asking about sensitive topics. Wikipedia tells me that Wallace had a special in 1982 where he interviewed an American general about the Vietnam war and I wonder if that was the inspiration for this one.

I hear there's a lunar eclipse tonight. Think we should look up?

This the episode where Krusty learns he has a daughter.

The horns on the shoulders look cool. Other than that it looks like every other jersey Nike has done just with a different font for the numbers.

Now there's an employee, Smithers, with a smile on his face and a song in his heart. Promote him.

Matt Berry seemed underutilized to me, but other than I thought it a good episode.

Last exit to Springfield? Not sure why Burns would be pointing at Homer though.

Seemed kinda weird to air a new episode on Christmas Eve and not be about Christmas. I guess Fox just wanted that NFL ratings boost.
