I love Trash Of The Titans, but this is really a less-funny, less-interesting carbon copy. Still, it's not bad, and good for a laugh or two or three or four.
Old review:
The episode had some decent dialogue, mainly spouted by Homer himself, and a very funny strangulation scene with a telephone cord, but the laughter count is surprisingly low. We have another self-gratifying guest appearance, this time from The Who, who, rather surprisingly, are credited as "The Who," without the individual names of the group. Good as they are, on the show, they added very little, except in their music breaking down the barrier dividing Old and New Springfield. The opening scene was little more than another tired excuse to have Homer get hurt. Seeing Homer's bodily organs did not disgust me, but like with him getting hit on the head with a glass bottle and being set on fire with flaming garbage, there's more injuries to add to the list. What's more, this episode was almost entirely a complete remake of Trash Of The Titans (Homer being angry, Homer gaining a respected position, Homer using a rock group to help him out, Homer's incompetence angering the townspeople, etcetera), except worse.
