It only seems like it.)
It was just fate that he ended up with the same name as a cartoon troublemaker. And when his t
Finally, a Harlem Shake video for a new audience! Last night's opening couch gag on 'The Simpsons' showed everyone's favorite cartoon family getting in on the Harlem Shake craze. And we definitely count it as a win.
