Am I the only one who feels this episode is too contrived?

>>83730305
The family are the fans and homer is the writers wanting to change the status quo.

>>83730305
It's such a cozy episode. One of my favorites.

>>83730305
Or the episode where he has all the premium channels on TV and he's forced to not watch it because it's a bad thin while all the neighbors watch it in his house. Or the episode where he sues Burns and is about to become millionaire but then Marge steps in. His family is just horrible.

>>>83730305 (OP)

Neither of these things ever happened.

DUDE TALK FAST LMAO

>>83730305
How is it unfair to Homer? 3 should suffer so 1 can be happy? Homer wasn't even unhappy in Springfield. Agree with >>83730491 though.

>>83730305
>Marge realise she got nothing in her life except being a housewife

good goy, being a housewife is bad.

>>83730305
Honesty he had it all and let it slip away because of bullshit.

>>83730491
Nothing tops this for the family being shitty to Homer.

This is probably my favorite episode. What bugs me is they use the same guys voice in the movie, but not Scorpio. They should have finished the story for the movie.

>Homer is successful
>Marge/Lisa sabotage him

Feels like every other early Simpsons episode.


>Marge my boss wants this and will greatly reward me!
>No muh feelings wont let me homie

Imagine the balls it would have taken for them to have Lisa reason that she could use that money far better than Burns, and they fucking mercy kill the show then and there. On a high note. The end.

>>83731317
Or have Homer actually die in the ICU after Lisa tells him just how much money she pissed away.

>>83731294
this is why I can't stand them. recently watched s2-4 and they were all this.

>>83731163
>lisa
Every fucking time.

>Marge could have taken a job or pick up a hobby, instead she acted like a piece of shit
>Bart could have quit his bullshit and take extra classes to receive a good education, Marge could have homeschooled him, instead acted like a piece of shit
>Lisa could have taken some pills against her allergies, taken some more jazz classes, received top class education, instead acted like a piece of shit

This one time Homer wasn't a piece of shit and his family had to be.

>>83731988
To be fair, Homer was probably going to get killed at that job, so perhaps it was for the best.
