On the heels of visits from pop icon Madonna and film director Quentin Tarantino, the Simpsons are also making their way to Israel. The yellow family will visit the Holy Land for one episode, which will air on the show's 21st season.

 

Sacha Baron Cohen, of "Borat" and "Bruno" fame, who also visited Israel a few weeks ago, will lend his voice to the episode, playing the character of the Simpson's angry tour guide.

 

Al Jean, the TV show's producer, told Entertainment Weekly that the Jewish movie star will be guiding the Simpson's through their travels, which will be focused in Jerusalem. According to reports, Homer Simpson will also suffer from Jerusalem Syndrome during the episode.

 

Jean also disclosed one quote out of Baron Cohen and Marge Simpson's dialogue, in which the tour guide tries convincing Marge to give him a good score on the feedback card: "You try having Syria for a neighbor! What do you have — Canada?’”

 

The episode, titled "The Greatest Story Ever D’ohed," is due to air March 28, 2010.
