Homer the Father - Episode Discussion

[eyes of heart]

It's difficult to tell if Homer made a really durab or really smart move by handing the secrets over to the Chinese.

Watching it.

The episode is re-airing Sunday (9/4).

 

[Cadence]

Yes that was a great scene :lol:

 

[mindcandy4U]

I liked the scene when Homer was doing a retinal scan at the power plant. And then he did the fake retinal scan and got burned.

 

[Say it like it is]

That was hilarious :lol:

Good episode...got to watch it today in the morning.

Love how Homer got so hooked on the sitcom and starting wearing sweaters like the dad on the show and started using his motto :lol:

All the different code names for the different countries Bart wrote to :lmao:

Crystal- I liked that scene too with Bart and Lisa and her minimizing him and his voice :lol:

Chalkboard gag:
Prince is not the son of MLK.

I was slow - I didn't get it until the following day.

I thought this episode was really good.

I laughed soo hard at the part where bart pops up on Lisas computer and she minimizes him. :lmao:

I didn't expect the way Bart pictured how he would die. And that's a pretty big bed if he could fit himself and the dirt bike in it.

 

[Cristy]

Homer the Father
Episode NABF05

Homer starts acting like the father on a 1980s sitcom, and when he suggests that Bart earn the money to get the dirt bike he wants, Bart does - by trading secrets with the Russians and Chinese; James Lipton conducts an animated Inside the Actor's Studio-type interview (but it's not clear yet if it's with The Simpsons (part of the interview Lipton did with the cast on his show was "in character", and they could just animate that) or with the cast of the previously-mentioned 1980s sitcom (which Homer would probably see and then realize that parenting is not quite as easy as it looks on TV)
