[The Spruce Moose]

so the moment I say it's going to be a close race, the support for two stories falls away completely?

*waits till Season 8 to use this to my advantage on You Only Move Twice*

Rip Bart's comet

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

Homer Badman not making it is a travesty.

[Handsome B. Wonderful]

Lots of things are a travesty.

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

I know I know, but this still bothers me...you could make the argument that Maggie is a better emotional episode, V is a Halloween show, and Burns is an iconic hilarious episode, but I just don't see how Homer the Great is better than Homer Badman.

It's not. Doesn't matter, though. The way the Hurt & Heal format works is that invariably more polarizing episodes (and/or Lisa episodes) get sacrificed due to the fact that they're more likely to divide opinion. The haters will always have a greater say in what makes it through and thus even superior episodes will be cast aside for safer, less polarizing ones.

[Alex_Of_Darkness]

Come on kill Homer badman

This is a great episode but the other are better than this one...

[Financial Panther]

Come on, kill AlexandreLeblanc; he wants to kill Homer Badman.

[Alex_Of_Darkness]

But I know that this episode is really appreciate by the americans so I understand your choice to kill me :P

I should see this episode another time. I saw it more than one time but I don't watch it since one maybe +...

[Financial Panther]

I think it's loved so much by us because of how brilliantly it satirizes things like sexual assault in the US. If you're not from here, it's understandable that you might not be able to fully appreciate it.

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

C'mon Badman, make that comeback!!!

[Company Picnic]

Homer Badman and Homer the Great are both reasonably whacky (although with a surprisingly strong emotional side to the story), and as with most Mirkin episodes the quickfire humour is great. Badman is much funnier though in my opinion.

[Oh, that's raspberry!]

Badman has its satire about the news media going for it too though, Homer's interview on Rock Bottom is funnier than anything in Homer the Great.
