The Simpsons: Homer to the Max (1999)
Season 10, Episode 13
8/10
A Ridiculously Funny Episode,
3 June 2017
Homer to the Max is a great Simpsons episode with a well written plot and a ton of very funny scenes. In the episode, we see Homer go through a series of different emotions concerning a character on a television series having the same name as him. As the plot progresses, the episode continues to get more ridiculous and far fetched, that you can not help but smile, cause you know the crew had great fun writing it.

I did feel it could have gone further. It got a little too grounded, this cod have been an unforgettable episode if it let itself go a little more wild, instead it levels itself to a degree that it is fun while you watch, but not particularly memorable.

The satire in this episode is stellar, the clips from the buddy cop show were hilarious, showcasing the type of television people watch these days. Bill Clinton also plays a reasonably big part in this episode, and the series' parody of the former US President is side splitting hilarity every moment he is on screen.

It is a very fun 20 minutes while it lasts. While its not the strongest of the tenth season, Homer to the Max is a very enjoyable Simpsons episode.

Homer changes his name to Max Power after a clumsy TV show character is named Homer Simpson.
