Homer’s “Everyday”

Posted by Ross Rosenberg

The glorious return of Futurama does many things and one of them may be easing the pain of watching it’s older sibling, The Simpsons, limp on, year after year, long after the laughs have run out, and while I think the movie should have served as the series finale, Groening and Co. obviously feel otherwise. That said, however, I was pleasantly surprised by the most recent episode in which Homer must attempt to piece together the events of a forgotten night.

In this scene Homer, after having decided that Marge cheated on him with Duff-man causing Homer to give her, according to Chief Wiggam, an “Irish Kiss” (black eye), attempts suicide (with some help). As he falls his life flashes before his eyes, ala “Everyday”, in a montage of drunkenness, acne, and despondency. A small glimmer of creativity in what has otherwise become a sea of mediocrity.

4 COMMENTS ARE NOT ENOUGH

    While it was probably the funniest part in the episode, it’s hardly creative. You must of missed this 2 summers ago:

    I’m gonna have to disagree with you there, raab, considering I both reference the title of the video you mention (twice) as well as link to it within the post.

    Yeah c’mon raab, read the whole article before you comment on it, and pay attention. The music to that video is great.

    I didn’t even notice the little YouTube spoof they had at the very end until I watched it a second time. Very cute.
