‘The Simpsons’ marked another major milestone by airing their 800th episode, titled ‘Irrational Treasure.’ What made this even more special was the number of guests who starred in the episode to celebrate. ‘The Pitt,’ an Emmy-winning TV series, was a major part of the milestone, as leading actors Noah Wyle, Katherine LaNasa, and Taylor Dearden joined the gang in their animated versions. Rather than playing their roles from the TV show, the trio joined ‘The Simpsons’ as experienced veterinarians to save the family dog after he accidentally licked the fallen Ambrosia salad and grapes. Their expertise was needed since grapes are known to be highly toxic to dogs.

Talking about working with the cast, he concluded, “And I mean, obviously Noah clearly went all in and was willing to make light of one of the saddest and most realistic parts of the actual Pitt show in the Ambrosia salad version. I think they all seem pretty excited.”
