I rememember an episode opening with Bart saying something to the effect of "we have taken control, do not attempt to adjust your set" with his voice being shown as a wave of sound on the screen. Then Homer butts in and says something like "hey, I can see my voice!" and starts making stupid sounds to see what they look like.
Which episode is it? I can't find it anywhere.

Well, just to sound holier than thou:
Quote:
Marge: Hello once again. As usual, I must warn you all that this year's
Hallowe'en show is very, very scary, and those of you with young
children may want to send them off for bed --
[someone hands her a paper; she reads it]
Oh, my! It seems the show is _so_ scary that Congress won't even
let us show it. Instead they've suggested the 1947 Glenn Ford
classic movie, "200 Miles to Oregon".
[a clip from the movie shows]
-- Introductions, "Treehouse of Horror V"

The picture shuts off like a television being unplugged. The little
white dot remaining at the center expands into a green line which
becomes modulated with Bart's voice like an oscilloscope trace.

[picture shows a green line]
Bart: There's nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt
to adjust your picture. _We_ are controlling the transmission.
Homer: What's that, boy? We're in control? Hey, look! I can see my
voice! [laughs] Brrr...hee! Heeee!
[changing pitches] Blub blub blub blub blub! Thiiis...iiis my
vooice...on teeeveeeee --
Bart: Dad! You're ruining the mood.
Homer: Sorry.
Bart: For the next half-hour, _we_ will control what you see and hear.
You are about to experience the terror and foul horror of...The
Simpsons Hallowe'en Special.
[green line turns into outline of five family members]
-- Bart opens the show, "Treehouse of Horror V"
