I watched this episode because somewhere on the "Watchmen" fan boards, I saw a clip of Millhouse holding up a "Watchmen Babies: V for Vacation" DVD which he holds up to (well-known anti-commercial BS advocate) Alan Moore. Upon watching it, I was doubly amused by the "Korean covers of Tom Jones songs" bit (for many personal reasons). Plus, Art Spiegelman kicking ass after he exclaims "Maus in the house!" was very amusing.
Naturally, the opening of a Simpsons episode is never what the episode is entirely about. Thus, going into the "Shapes" twist and Homer's ultimate decision to undergo cosmetic surgery was pretty weak in my opinion (and f*ing disgusting). With that in mind, what's happened to Dr. Nick? Did the producers decide that one stereotype of Spanish speaking doctors is better than another? Pretty weak.
Comic book fans: watch the first 10-15 min of the episode and chalk up the rest of the episode as a growing trend to include as much tripe as possible to the declining Simpsons saga.
