1206 The Computer Wore Menace ShoesTimes Watched: 596877Comments: 61Rating:
After realizing that he's missing the cyberspace boat, Homer plugs into the internet and builds a web site. But when low traffic hits him where it hurts, he resorts to spicing up his cyberslab with damaging gossip concerning fellow townsfolk. Guest starring Patrick McGoohan as Prisoner #6.
In fact, Lisa HAS a computer already.
4:45 Man, I miss when the internet was like this.
5:19 Still better than social networking crap!
5:35 No it isn't. It's on the internet for all the public to see.
5:38 Wrong again, Lisa. Funny attitude from her, considering she's usually complaining about corporate conglomerates.
6:00 So? There wasn't anything to DO on the internet in those days. And that's the way we LIKED it.
6:07 That isn't actually offering people anything.
6:32 What in the fuck's wrong with her? There's loads of bullshit, and people still promote Google search. Where does she get these opinions from?
7:12 Sure there is! 9`n'6
7:48 Good lord! Everyone knows it's a crime for elected officials to own a swimming pool!
8:27 You have to be licensed to be a news anchor? I don't believe it.
Ireland is weird.
spanish and italian are pretty close. i knew italian first and when i learned spanish i kept on gettin confused.
could also be that im stupid but, whatever.
@A Guest Homer is often gone at days at a time which can be a result of his extreme problem with alcohol or his strange obsessions he frequently gets which are often shown In many episodes
e.g. He obsesses over making money from grease, He obsesses over winning a bowling ball game, he obsesses over T.V., need i go on?
And in an episode you hear one of the family say that they are used to him being gone for days at a time and the whole "German Homer" is just to add a comedy slant to the episode otherwise a lot of the younger audience would tune out if there was little comedic skits or scenes instead of just a pure story line.
And you perhaps shouldn't criticize the writing of the show because majority of the writers or people who contribute to the script of the show are above the average intellect of the world for example there was Conan 'O' Brien who used to write for earlier episodes, Joel Cohen who often writing the complex equations often seen in Futurama so perhaps you should think about what you say.
I'm a fan of the show that this episode is parodying. 'The Priosoner' and I always wondered what it was that Number 6 was at the island for....now I know.
This one of my favorite episodes. I love the flu shot theroy. Flu shots are used for mind control to make people shop thats why they are always given before Christmas.
simpsonenlighten, is taking this WAY too seriously...
i feel bad for bart it's like he has the mind of a teenager in a 10 year old body. the writers should really have bart and lisa grow up...
Fantastic!
I really like it that Homer was actually able to pursue his "hair-brained" impulse, and get a Pullitzer out of it! It would've been too predictable for him to be deflated early on, and, I wanted him to succeed. Being impulsive should be rewarded.
Homer really is an extraordinary guy. I just wish he would stop strangling poor Bart.
Speaking of Bart, this episode made excellent social commentary, on Homer being too preoccupied with his website to listen to Bart talk about how angry he is and how his unexpressed feelings are manifesting themselves in switchblades and suspensions. Talking about feelings freely is humanity's next evolutionary step.
Honest John's Computers makes me ashamed that I once worked for CompUSA. We used those exact same tactics! Right down to scanning the deeds to our customers' houses. However, we gave them 12 seconds to decide instead of 10. That would just be cruel.

I really like it that Homer was actually able to pursue his "hair-brained" impulse, and get a Pullitzer out of it! It would've been too predictable for him to be deflated early on, and, I wanted him to succeed. Being impulsive should be rewarded.
Homer really is an extraordinary guy. I just wish he would stop strangling poor Bart.
Speaking of Bart, this episode made excellent social commentary, on Homer being too preoccupied with his website to listen to Bart talk about how angry he is and how his unexpressed feelings are manifesting themselves in switchblades and suspensions. Talking about feelings freely is humanity's next evolutionary step.
