Tftnt! Season 25 yay!

The family's welcome HOME-R sign. & Homer using a fish in place of Mr. Burns, haha!

This episode was pretty strange, but I liked how it ended.

Woohoo! 25 Seasons! It seems so long since season 24, I'm glad it's finally arrived.

That sign made me laugh as well. Very creative! And Lenny's phone making them look happy again in the photo
Also, when Homer picked up the fish, I was like 'what the?'. Then when it was shown up close I just kinda thought 'Oh yeah, that makes sense'.
I loved that bit where the FBI agent freaks Milhouse out with the fact that she knows his name. Either she knew it already and lied, or that was a very good guess!

I agree, this episode was rather odd, but I liked it overall and it had a good ending. Looking forward to the next episode now. TOH!

I agree, this season seemed to take forever to arrive.

I am beyond excited for the TOH!

Upcoming episodes for season 25:

Treehouse of Horror XXIV
The Man Who Came to Be Dinner
Four Regrettings and a Funeral
Labor Pains
Brick Like Me
Steal This Episode
YOLO
White Christmas Blues
Days of Future Future
Diggs
Yellow Subterfuge
Luca$
You Don't Have to Live Like a Referee
I Only Have My Eyes For You
The Man Who Grew Too Much
Married to the Blob
The Winter of His Content
The Kid is Alright
The War of Art
What to Expect When Bart's Expecting
Simpsorama

This season has the first one-syllable title of the series, "Diggs", beating out the previous record of season 12's HOMR (fantastic episode!) with two.

Also, could "You Don't Have to Live Like a Referee" be a sequel to Marge Gamer?

Thanks for putting that list up Also, I had no idea there had never been a one-syllable title for an episode. Funny enough, I thought the episode titles seemed to have got longer in more recent years.
I am very interested now as to whether or not that could be a sequel. Perhaps 'The Man Who Grew Too Much' or 'Married To The Blob' could be a sequel to 'King-Size Homer'

I think I expected more from an episode with the title Homerland. Very few funny moments. Overall, a bad episode for me

I love the TOH episodes, so I'm very excited about this.

Oh, it's a shame to hear you didn't like it.

I agree, when I first read the title 'Homerland', I thought he might be making his own theme park! That would've been an awesome episode!

"Homerland" was the name of the theme park Homer was planning to start in "Bart's Inner Child", when he got the trampoline.

Haha that would of been cool! I knew it was going to be a Homeland parody and I don't watch that show, so I wasn't expecting much.

Never even heard of the show, so can't say I was expecting anything!

I've never watched Homeland, but I remembered the SNL parody about the show.

I actually liked the episode. It had the same feel as the 24 parody, "24 Minutes". The flashbacks caused some confusion. I wasn't sure if that occurs in Homeland.
