Day 79

Homer to the Max



Special Guest Star: Ed Begley Jr.

Homer to the Max" is the thirteenth episode of The Simpsons' tenth season, which originally broadcast on February 7, 1999. Homer discovers that a television show broadcasting in Springfield, Police Cops, has a hero also named Homer Simpson. He is delighted with the positive attention he receives because of the show. However, when the television character is changed from a hero to a bumbling idiot, Homer is mocked and taunted by those he knows, so he changes his name to "Max Power" to rid himself of the negative attention. He gains new friends, and is forced into a protest to prevent a forest from being knocked down. In the end, "Max" changes his name back to Homer.

Tennis the Menace




Special Guest Stars: Venus & Serena Williams, Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi (The Wrestler?)

"Tennis the Menace" is the twelfth episode of the twelfth season of The Simpsons which originally aired February 11, 2001.

The Simpsons go to an old folks' talent show. Homer looks into getting a casket for Abe, but instead decides to build a tennis court. He doesn't really like tennis; he got it confused with foxy boxing. All the locals want to use the tennis court. The Simpsons are the L.A. Clippers of tennis. Everyone mocks them behind their backs. Marge is horrified and starts to become competitive. She enters Krusty's tournament without Homer, her partner is Bart. This sets up a situation similar to that of Oedipus. Homer enters the tournament with Lisa as his partner. He turns her against Marge. At the tournament, there are a number of tennis pros in the stands. The stakes rise when Homer recruits Venus Williams and drops Lisa. Marge cries foul, so she is allowed to have Serena Williams as a partner. Serena then dumps Marge and successfully recruits Pete Sampras. Then Venus dumps Homer and successfully recruits Andre Agassi. The Simpson family then makes up. With the tennis court in their backyard, they will resume playing tennis together, right?

"Homer to the Max" has one of my favorite Simpsons lines ever:

Homer/Max: "See, kids, there's 3 ways to do things, the right way, the wrong way and the Max Power way!"

Bart: "Isn't the Max Power way the wrong way?"

Homer/Max: "Yes! But faster!" *walks into random cactus*
