One of my favorite Simpsons episodes!
30 January 2006 | by (UK) – See all my reviews

This is the historic episode in which Homer becomes a snow plowman during a winter blizzard - and is so successful that Barney tries to edge in on the competition by opening his own plow business, too! Of course, Barney starts to become more popular than Homer - which prompts dirty tactics...

This is one of the funniest "Simpsons" episodes. It contains the hilarious TV commercial in which Homer tries to advertise his business and comes up with the Plow Man Jingle.

It also ends with some surprisingly touching emotional conflict, despite the absurdity of the content.

Definitely a must-see "Simpsons."
