The band made an appearance on the famous animated series, where they performed one of their well-known songs. Excerpts from Heraldo News, Belen Alvarez contributes:

“Without a doubt, The Simpsons is one of the most iconic TV series, known for featuring collaborations with a variety of big names, from politicians and scientists actors, actresses, singers and bands. Los Tigres del Norte will make history by appearing in a special episode.

Los Tigres del Norte, a legendary norteno music group founded in Mocorito, Sinaloa will now be part of “The Simpsons” in a special episode. This iconic band has achieved everything from gold record to sold out stadiums and international recognition, so it is no surprise that their significance has led them to join the universe of The Simpsons. The characters are part of the episode of the series where Los Tigres del Nort performed “El corridor de Pedro y Homero”

The song is an adaptation of the famous track “Pedro y Pable” performed by Los Tigres del Norte. Additionally, two illustrations were made public, showing the legendary band adapted in the style of the animated series. You can see the members of the band on stage with a purple curtain, dressed in light suits, playing accordion guitars, bass, and drums, while a large sign with their name is displayed behind them. The instruments and the bass drum feature a tiger drawing, clearly referencing the group’s visual identity.

In another illustration, Homer Simpson, wearing a Mexican hat, is seen dancing in front of the stage, while Pedro, the famous bumblebee from the series, also enjoys the corridors from another corner.

The storyline features the band members in animated form and the iconic Mexican character Pedro, the Bumblebee Man. The appearance is part of the 37th season of the series and aired on Fox on Sunday, December 28, 2025. For many, this collaboration is a cultural milestone, bringing together one of the most important references of Mexican regional music with the most famous family on American television.
