The Episode Review
The episode is a massive improvement over the previous episodes of this season. The plot is captivating, mildly funny, and with a message. Duffman’s transformation from an attention-hungry mascot to a loving dad is enjoyable to watch. What’s better, he asks Homer for help. We would have loved if there were more jokes. But, all in all, it’s a nice episode that promises to entertain you.
