This was a better episode than I was expecting honestly. It was a simple episode but a fun Homer episode. I also liked that we were able to see some of the side characters utilized a bit more. The beginning with Moe and King Toot fighting was good and I enjoyed the part where Homer and Apu got busted for giving the band the bad Kwik-E-Mart hot dogs too. I liked the ending with Homer, Apu, Moe, King Toot, and Sammy Hagar in the prison cell and Sammy Hagar plotting to bust out.

The Simpsons have done this before... oh wait.

I thought it was a good episode too.

You know, I've really been enjoying The Simpsons this year. I stopped watching regularly about 10 years ago but now look forward to it each Sunday.

I no longer think of the current show as being connected to that amazing show that was on back in the 90's. I'm enjoying it as if it were an all new program that just borrows a lot of material from an old classic.

I like the picture of the B-Sharps barber shop quartet in Apu's dressing room.

This has been an excellent season. The only dud for me was the season premiere, but the 7 episodes since have ranged from very good to great.

The premiere was the worst episode of the season to date.
