Fine episode, neither mindblowing nor annoying (though the pointless
sports cameos were getting there). The corporate twist/calling out near
the end was well done with a light touch. I also just saw Challengers a
few weeks ago, so I was surprised to actually get this current-ish pop
culture reference (the scene with Agnes).
Previous episode stuff
5F17: Homer's initial Wikipedia page has a photo of him with his head
stuck in the drawbridge
DABF07: Buck McCoy, for some reason, among the statues of famous Springfielders, which are generally recurring characters
3F18: The Very Tall Man returns to weigh in
Another dedication
Tonight's airing (and probably no others) was in loving memory of Jill
Sobule, singer/songwriter of the 90s who wrote and sang the title song
of "Marge the Lumberjill" (ZABF02) in 2019, but did not appear onscreen
(so this used a publicity drawing of her). Seems she died May 1st.
