It’s a deep and clever Simpsons callback.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Simpsons just got a callback to a joke from almost three decades ago, though it happened in another show. Given its status as one of the most influential shows of all time, the influence of The Simpsons is clear to see in other sitcoms and family comedies, like Malcolm in the Middle.
Josh Weinstein, a former showrunner on The Simpsons, confirmed a callback to the series in Disenchantment. See his Tweets confirming the callback, below: Weinstein was responding to a Twitter user who noticed the callback in Disenchantment season 5, episode 3. A credits sequence in the episode includes the name Hig Heisler, crediting him with only drawing the arms. This is a reference to the 1994 Simpsons episode "Lady Bouvier's Lover", which was the penultimate installment of season 5 and had been co-written by Weinstein and Bill Oakley.
The Simpsons Has A History Of Crossovers The Simpsons has built up a bit of a legacy in terms of crossing over with other shows, but the first instance was not without controversy. It happened in season 6, with the episode "A Star Is Burns." It featured characters from The Critic, which was produced by former Simpsons writers Al Jean and Mike Reiss, in addition to producer James L. Brooks.
Since then, The Simpsons has had crossovers with shows that Groening created, like Futurama, and others that he did not. For example, The Simpsons had a full crossover with Family Guy and has influenced references to and appearances by Bob's Burgers characters. It also featured a Rick and Morty couch gag. Maggie also holds up Rick & Morty's Szechuan Sauce during one opening sequence.
