About This Program ✦
The Blue and the Grey is an episode‑style programme that falls within the broader category of a television series. Its format is that of a single instalment rather than a full‑length film, and it is classified simply as an episode. In this instalment Marge makes a conscious choice to let her hair turn grey, seeing it as a way of embracing life on her own terms. At the same time, Homer takes it upon himself to give Moe a hand with his romantic prospects, attempting to improve his friend’s love life. The episode juxtaposes Marge’s personal acceptance with Homer’s well‑meaning interference, each character pursuing a different kind of change. Marge’s decision is presented as a personal affirmation, while Homer’s involvement with Moe is driven by his desire to see his friend succeed in love. Both storylines run side by side, offering a glimpse into how the characters respond to the idea of transformation—whether it’s accepting a physical change or trying to spark a new relationship. The narrative keeps the focus tightly on these two parallel efforts, highlighting the characters’ motivations without venturing beyond the core events described.
The Simpsons broadcasts on Sky Showcase +1 at 8:30pm, Thursday, 12 February 2026. (Subtitles, repeat)
