Question: What is this Simpsons episode a reference to? I don't remember what season this was in, but Homer gets a computer and starts his own investigative blog. He wins a Pulitzer prize, but realizes that if he simply makes outrageous stories up, he can attract a larger audience. One of these fantastical stories turns out to be true and Homer uncovers an immense international conspiracy. To make sure that he doesn't talk they kidnap him and take him to "the Island". What is "the Island" a reference to? The setting, rituals, and characters that are on the Island all seem to come from somewhere but I don't know where. Any help would be great.

Answer: The TV show "The Prisoner"
