  • Homer and Flanders go to Vegas.

    "Perfect"

    In this episode, Homer convinces Flanders to go to Vegas with him.

    What I liked:
    * The part where Homer was grilling on the roof. - LMFAO!
    * Homer getting really drunk with Flanders.
    * Flanders actually taking Homer's advice.
    * Homer doing that stupid trick.

    What I didn't like:
    * The fact that they married those nasty cocktail waitresses - they could have did something else.
    * The ending was not all that great.

    Overall, I think that this is another one of season 10's best episodes. It was funny and it showed that Flanders is dumb enough to listen to Homer and follow his advice. I would recommend checking this one out.moreless

    i didn't like most of this episode, things such as ned actually being 60 throughout the series {continuity error}, and some of the jokes throughout. this felt like a typical sitcom with 2 parts, the "cliffhanger" being homer and ned marry two other women. I don't like plots like that on this show. I do know this show is a cartoon and sometimes you have to except wackiness and stuff, but to me, there is a limit on what is funny and what is not, and the majority of this episode is simply not funny. Overall grade, C+ or somoreless

  • Homer and Ned accidently marry two cocktail watresses from Vegas.

    Let me start off by saying this episode is just truly amazing, enough said. This episode is one that kept me entertained from start to finish, and it just kept those hilarious jokes coming. It was good to see a stick in the mud like flanders have Homer show him really how to paint the town red. This is surely a great episode, maybe not one of my favorite episodes but it is an episode that I will always remember as being a part of this legendary series. Just a well thought out and greatly executed plot that let to a great episode. Amoreless

    Guess what! it is Homer again at the helm! yep, Homer Simpson is the new leading star of the Simpsons tv show. Isn't that crazy? we went from stories about Bart Simpson destroying other's people property to this. What is this? well, this is crazyness. Ned Flanders asking Homer to teach him how to live life a bit less prefectly. Ned you don't need that, you and your God can figure that out I think. I like this episode because although it is a very crazy story, it can actually happen and I believe it has happenned many times before in rela life.moreless

  • Was Ned on drugs in this episode because nobody should ever take Homer's advice.

    In an attempt to show Flanders a good time, Homer takes him to Las Vegas, where they gamble and drink. After a night of debauchery, the men wake up in a hotel room to discover that they've married Amber and Ginger, two trashy but sweet cocktail waitresses from Nero's Palace. Over a breakfast buffet, Homer and Ned try to explain to the women that they already have wives, but the brides prove to be frighteningly tenacious. Homer and Ned are forced to flee Las Vegas when everyone, from hotel security to the Moody Blues, beats them up for dishonoring two young women in need.moreless
