It originally aired on the <a href="/wiki/Fox_Broadcasting_Company" title="Fox Broadcasting Company">Fox network</a> in the United States on November 5, 2000. In the episode, <a href="/wiki/Homer_Simpson" title="Homer Simpson">Homer</a> discovers that <a href="/wiki/Springfield_(The_Simpsons)" title="Springfield (The Simpsons)">Springfield</a> has two different area codes and ends up leading a revolt that splits the town in two. </p><p>The episode was written by <a href="/wiki/John_Swartzwelder" title="John Swartzwelder">John Swartzwelder</a> and directed by Shaun Cashman and guest starred <a href="/wiki/The_Who" title="The Who">the Who</a>. The episode was inspired by <a href="/wiki/Don_Payne_(writer)" title="Don Payne (writer)">Don Payne</a>, based on the area where his mother lived, where one side of town would spread rumors about the other side. <a href="/wiki/Larry_Doyle_(writer)" title="Larry Doyle (writer)">Larry Doyle</a> then pitched that the two sides of Springfield would be divided because of a telephone area code. The episode features cultural references to the Who and the <a href="/wiki/Norman_Rockwell" title="Norman Rockwell">Norman Rockwell</a> painting <i><a href="/wiki/Freedom_of_Speech_(painting)" title="Freedom of Speech (painting)">Freedom of Speech</a></i>, and has received positive reviews from critics. </p><p>In November 2004, <a href="/wiki/Channel_4" title="Channel 4">Channel 4</a> chose this episode to be the first episode to be broadcast on the channel, having taken the terrestrial rights to air the show from <a href="/wiki/BBC_Two" title="BBC Two">BBC Two</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Plot">Plot</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=A_Tale_of_Two_Springfields&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Plot"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A <a href="/wiki/Badger" title="Badger">badger</a> takes up residence in <a href="/wiki/Santa%27s_Little_Helper" title="Santa's Little Helper">Santa's Little Helper's</a> doghouse. After several failed attempts to lure it out (including sending in <a href="/wiki/Homer_Simpson" title="Homer Simpson">Homer</a>, whom the badger attacks), Homer calls animal control. When he is unable to get through, <a href="/wiki/Marge_Simpson" title="Marge Simpson">Marge</a> explains that the phone company has introduced a new <a href="/wiki/Area_code" class="mw-redirect" title="Area code">area code</a> to <a href="/wiki/Springfield_(The_Simpsons)" title="Springfield (The Simpsons)">Springfield</a>. Half of the town keeps the original 636 area code, the other has 939. Homer becomes infuriated when he loses out on winning tickets to see <a href="/wiki/The_Who" title="The Who">the Who</a> live in concert to <a href="/wiki/Mr._Burns" title="Mr. Burns">Mr. Burns</a> in a radio show's give-away. At a town meeting, after being shown a patronising, deflective film produced by the telephone company, Homer rallies an angry mob to protest the change, noting that the upper class side of town got to keep their area code while the poorer half were forced to switch. After failing to detonate a bomb vest he wore to the meeting, Homer then proposes that the town split into two halves, and the mob agrees. </p><p>Homer is declared mayor of New Springfield. After Homer pelts <a href="/wiki/Mayor_Quimby" title="Mayor Quimby">Mayor Quimby</a> with beer cans (whilst the latter was giving a speech calling for conciliation), tensions arise between the two towns. Old Springfield businesses discriminate against customers from New Springfield, and condescend to them on the nightly news. <a href="/wiki/Bart_Simpson" title="Bart Simpson">Bart</a> and Homer shut off the power to Old Springfield. Old Springfield hijacks a beer truck heading for New Springfield and dumps its contents in the river; Homer and New Springfield then cut off their water supply. When the lack of water reveals <a href="/wiki/Gold" title="Gold">gold</a> in the river bed, making Old Springfield even richer and allowing the town to purchase a French water factory, an enraged Homer has a wall built between the two towns. However, a lack of supplies and sanitation drives all of the New Springfield residents over to Old Springfield, leaving the Simpsons alone. </p><p>Bitter, Homer attempts to sabotage the Who concert in Old Springfield by convincing them to play in New Springfield instead. When the people of Old Springfield realize this, they confront the Simpsons at the wall.
