Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass

2K members

The family goes to run down Springfield Park, where a carnival is being held to save it. Homer performs a wild crowd-pleasing dance at a local carnival, after beating Bart's performance in a game. Ned Flanders has captured the performance on videotape and Comic Book Guy (Jeff Albertson) puts it up on the Internet. The video gets worldwide attention, much to Homer's embarrassment but his tune changes when a football player wants to buy the rights to use his dance as his own end zone celebration. Homer turns the opportunity into a new lucrative occupation, which prospers as other athletes come to learn from him. Meanwhile Ned looks to create his own wholesome entertainment by creating his own versions of bible stories, which get the backing of Mr. Burns. Marge doesn't like his approach, which eliminates the good aspects of the stories, and only concentrates on the violence. She threatens a boycott, which gets Burns to remove his financial backing, leaving Ned with no creative outlet. The commissioner of football (and all the owners) want to talk to Homer, his teaching of crazy antics to their players have increased their ratings. They want him to choreograph the Superbowl half-time show. Homer struggles for a show idea and on the night before the big show he still doesn't have one. Homer looks for inspiration at the church, but instead finds Flanders, who is looking for an outlet for his ideas. Together they bring the story of Noah to the half-time show, but everyone boos as no one wanted to see such a "blatant display of religion and decency."

Why Rick and Morty Should Be Your Next Binge-Watch on BetaSeries

If you're on the lookout for a new series to binge-watch that delivers clever humor, thought-provoking narratives, and stunning animation, then look no further than 'Rick and Morty'. This American adult animated science fiction sitcom has been winning over audiences since its debut in 2013. From the genius minds of creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, 'Rick and Morty' is an unexpected blend of genres that manages to hit all the right notes.

The series follows the wild adventures of a cynical mad scientist named Rick Sanchez and his good-hearted but easily distressed grandson Morty Smith. The duo splits their time between regular family life in suburban America and interdimensional travel across infinite realities. These trips often result in hilarious chaos sparked by their own actions or ill-conceived plans.

What makes 'Rick and Morty' stand out from other shows is its ingenious storytelling which seamlessly blends elements of adventure, comedy, animation, and science fiction. It's not just about laughs; it also delves into philosophical themes as it explores existential questions through its characters' journeys — making each episode both entertaining and thought-provoking.
