However, Homer's weight fluctuations cause problems for the production. A Hollywood studio makes a movie based on Comic Book Guy's comic book character "Everyman," and Homer is cast in the lead. "Homer the Whopper" has received mixed reviews from television critics and acquired a Nielsen rating of 4.3 in its original broadcast. After a month, Lyle considers that Homer can carry on by himself, but unsurprisingly, he doesn't. And it doesn't take long before Homer gets even fatter than before. The finished film becomes a fiasco, featuring Everyman portrayed fit and fat, back and forth.
While CBG is offered more creative control over the sequel, he refuses and badmouths the film online, ensuring that his character will never again see the light of day.

When Avery Mann goes out of the bank there is a kid reading "Radioactive Man", when Avery Mann touches the comic it turns into "Iron Man".
Seth Rogen co-wrote the episode and guest starred as the character Lyle McCarthy. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg got to fulfill their dream of writing a Simpsons episode. Even though they probably only wrote 35% of the material and the Simpsons writers took over. Of course, it could turn out to be a really great episode; I suppose I'm cautiously optimistic. Yeah, it sounds to me like a weird amalgum of "Radioactive Man", "King of the Hill", and "Simple Simpson"--in other words, not entirely original. I've never seen Superbad, so I can't really vouch for the quality of the writing, but I kind of like Seth Rogen, so I guess we'll see.

The plot sounds like another "Homer goes into a wachy job" episode and the previews weren't so great. I haven't had lofty expectations for the show in years, but it'll interesting to see I guess. The plot and the aired stuff seem to be a mixed bag, but hopefully the good will exceed the bad. Last season there weren't many Homer job episodes but I agree it keeps getting really annoying.
