Overall, this was a pretty good episode to me, but the concept brought it up higher than I'd usually give it. The Simpsons has done this before with "Homer Badman", but I think that it was a good enough twist on the subject to keep it up to date without feeling too contrived or poorly planned.
Overall, Season 33 is currently looking like a bit of a resurgence in the Simpsons - there have been much more solidly good episodes than usual.
