The Simpsons episode, "Bart's Comet" is one of those platonic ideals of a Simpsons episode. It is full of hilarious moments, off-the-wall gags, and mob mentality humor. The opening act showcases Bart and Skinner, with the latter giving into his young prankster ways and the latter succumbing to his sad sack squareness. It then transitions into a satire of how people respond to a crisis, from hubris to despair and desperation, and finally with community. The clockwork perfection of the comet destroying the weather balloon and bomb shelter is wonderful, and the jokes never stop hitting. Furthermore, it also contains asides about military spending and congressional ineptitude. Although there is no Bond villain or flashbacks or attacks from Sideshow Bob, the humor is so dense, and the satire so well-observed, that it becomes an all-timer.

The episode also features a lovely bit of heart. It culminates with a sweet "Que Sera Sera" moment, during which the entire town shows up at the Flanders family bomb shelter. It also includes Homer's delightful thumb-twiddling song, the animal noise guessing game, and the "Never give up, never think things out" spirit of Springfield. All of these elements combine to make an episode that is not only hilarious from start to finish, but also contains great moments of character-based humor and satire.

In "Homer the Great", Homer discovers a secret society of Stonecutters and is welcomed with open arms as their Chosen One, much to his surprise. Despite the absurdity of the events that unfold in this episode, its success lies in its ability to make the audience sympathize with Homer's emotional journey, from feeling excluded to feeling accepted, and ultimately feeling emptiness and fulfillment. Despite its lack of continuity, its off-the-wall lunacy is rooted in Homer's emotions, making the episode feel real enough to work. Additionally, the episode is filled with plenty of humor, making it a classic among Simpsons fans.

The episode is a prime example of how, if you make your characters' emotions real enough and the resulting craziness funny enough, you can get away with stretching the boundaries of reality.
