This is my new changed and edited review. The five negative marks and no positive marks rating you see above is from my old review before I changed it to how you see it written here now.
"King sized Homer" is a funny episode. Homer, already being overweight with his well known beer gut, decides to add another sixty pounds to him just so he doesn't have to go to work, which he starts doing with the help of Dr. Nick Riviera (who went to Hollywood upstairs medical college and thought Bart did too when he says Homer should brush his teeth with milkshakes), Homer learns those extra tricks to help speed things up, such as also using pop tarts instead of bread for his sandwiches, and rubbing food againced paper/ window to see if it turns clear from the grease before he eats it (which gives us a funny "bird flying into the window" joke). I also liked the towl rack while weighing himself joke and Homer eating absolutely everything possibly edible including soy sauce, paprika, etc. and then turning to Maggie's non-toxic playd'oh, I mean playdough. Lol. When Homer reaches his morbidly obese appearance (a picture I will always know that it's this episode when I see it), Mr. Burns places a work station into his living room with another of many "who's Homer" jokes (who's this gastropod Smithers? Smithers: Its Homer Simpson sir, one of your chair moisteners from sector 7G). Marge is understandably not too happy about how he's ruining his health, setting a bad example, etc. There are some funny moments with Homer starting to work at home on the computer ("there isn't any any key" in response to 'press any key to start', and "where's my tab? I'm thirsty" after he pushes the tab button). We see the Homer's half brother Herb's drinking bird from "Brother, can you spare two dimes?", which he uses to fill in for him while he says "nuts to that, I'm going to the movies" while wearing his well chosen Mumu. The scene at the store where he buys the Mumu is funny (clerk to Homer: "you work with computers, right? Yeh, it must be computers, due to all the nonstop sitting and snacking"). I also found funny the scene at the movie theater, the manager won't let him in because of his size. Homer protests, and the manager says "sir, if you just quiet down, I'll treat you to a garbage bag full of popcorn". This is one of the two episodes where Homer acts at his most stupid, the other one being "Homer goes to college" where he lights his diploma on fire and sings "I am the smart. S M R T, I mean S M A R T." Spoiler warning: I. like the ending of this episode too involving a nuclear tank acting up and Homer getting humorously stuck.
