Well done so far. Here are some comments/suggestions for improving the article:

  • and is awarded with liposuction from his boss Mr. Burns - maybe "rewarded"
  • storms off in a huff - common expression but not really encyclopedic
  • I guess using "behind" is just being polite, but it could well fall under WP:EUPHEMISM.
  • that this episode "saved" him from that - "from doing so"
  • A tuxedo-ed pig appears next to him - I like the word "tuxedo-ed" but it's kind of awkward. Is "a pig wearing a tuxedo" okay?
  • he passed away nine years before was made - "passed away" is definitely a euphemism so use just "died"; "the episode" or another phrase seems to be missing
  • the legend on Newman's Own popcorn products - "on" seems like the wrong choice of word. Maybe "of", or could you think of another?
  • starring the American actor Pauly Shore and the American actress Faye Dunaway - don't need "the"s
  • Despite the numerous laughs at Homer's appearance in the DVD audio commentary - not quite sure what this means. Who's doing the laughing? Is it related to the book review?
  • plus points of the episode - can "plus points" be reworded, maybe to "positive points" or "highlights"?

I'll put the article on hold, so you'll have the next week to make changes. Good luck :)97198 (talk) 08:38, 21 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
