Is this classic, golden, transitional, neo, or zombie Simpsons?
That's literally one of the best episodes so I say classic or golden.
I seen threads on /biz/ examining the character, how he applies to the real world and why he fails in the end.
beautiful golden age Simpsons
It's probably in the top 5 best episodes
neoclassical post-modern simpsons.
One of the last memorable episodes. It's Season 8 so it's safely classic.
It's the best written episode IMO. It's like one of those classic novelas your english teacher says you should read every 10 years of life to see how your views and applications to your life change. It's about how life is unfair and how hard adulthood can be
Grimes is a bitter hard-working, disciplined, man who's never had anything given to him to the point where it's almost like everything is against him. He had to absolutely work for everything and still handles misfortune
Homer is a fat retard who's got through life solely on luck and his oafish charisma.
You're supposed to identify with one of them and they writers know this when they make the dark as fuck resolution where Grimesgoes insane because everyone likes Homer more than him and can't empathize his frustrations with Homer
What's so good about this episode? It wasn't even funny

it's pretty funny but it's memorable of how poinent it's commentary on adulthood, professionalism, working and life is.
Have a few jobs or move out or turn 17 and see

Golden. Also easily my favourite episode.

This was the last good episode.
And I think, the Frank Grimes episode would have been more than fitting for a series finale for the show.
The entire show is about how stupid and incompetent Homer is but still has managed to do a lot of great things and has established a decent middle-class living with a dysfunctional, yet loving family.

entire episode* i meant.
The beginning of transitional. It's the start of Homer becoming a flanderized idiot.
