Full episode: "The Simpsons" MMA-themed episode, "The Great Wife Hope"
In a sign that mixed martial arts has truly made it, the sport was satirized on Sunday's new installment of the "The Simpsons" on Fox.
In the episode, dubbed "The Great Wife Hope," Marge takes on mixed martial arts after Springfield's male population embraces the local MMA organization UPKCC, the acronym for the Ultimate Punch, Kick and Choke Championship.
Marge later competes after UPKCC president Chet Englebrick agrees to shut down the promotion if Marge can beat him in a cage match.
MMA fans can appreciate the show writers' obvious knowledge of MMA, including references to a septagon, tribal bicep tattoos, and Marge's training regiment, which includes boxing with Drederick Tatum, jiu jitsu with local martial-arts instructor Akira, and wrestling with Mr. Burns. In fact, during one exchange in which Marge talks about getting the sport shut down, Nelson explains.
"You can't stop an entire sport," he said. "You'd need several other mothers and sympathetic school officials and clergy men."
"The Great Wife Hope," part of "The Simpsons" season No. 23, is the 444th episode in the series' long-running history.
Check out the entire episode with the embedded clip.
