    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Faye Dunaway had previously refused a guest role on the show. As a revenge, the writers stuck her in a goofy film that would be considered underneath her calibre of work (that Homer tried to see) called Honk If You're Horny! with Pauly Shore.
    • Goofs
      The Japanese dunking bird that Homer uses to type the "Y" key on his computer keyboard would stop moving very quickly, because it must dip its beak in water to cool the fluid that powers the motion.
    • Quotes

      Lisa Simpson: [Homer receives an award for using his fat body to block a toxic vent] I think it's ironic that Dad saved the day while a slimmer man would have fallen to his death.

      Bart Simpson: Yeah, and I think it's ironic that for once, Dad's butt actually prevented the release of toxic gas...

      Marge Simpson: Bart!

    A barrel of laughs
    This is one of the best simpsons episodes I have ever watched. Some of the things Homer says in the episode are ridiculously funny

    We have watched it about 500 times and it just gets funnier!

    I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this episode to viewers
