A lot of the early writers for the Simpson's were Harvard alum. One was a mathematician and there are a number of little mathematical jokes hidden in the writing.

@88080808088 Love when Homer "solves" Fermi's Last Theorem

There is actually a book all about the mathematical stuff in the Simpson's
The Simpsons and Their Mathematical Secrets
Book by Simon Singh
It's an interesting read.
