"Are you tired of having your hands cut off by snowblowers? And the inevitable heart attacks that come with shoveling snow?"

Simpsons Top 100 Countdown
#50 Mr. Plow
Season 4, Episode 9 (Guide from the Simpsons Archive)

Homer drives home from Moe’s in a snowstorm and crashes into Marge’s car in their driveway. When shopping for a replacement vehicle, he gets talked into buying a snowplow. After some initial problems with advertising, business starts booming. Barney, in need of work, decides to join the snowplow business as well and crushes Homer at it. Homer tricks Barney into plowing a dangerous mountain road, but then is overcome with guilt when he gets trapped and goes to save him. They are reconciled in the end and vow to work together, but a record heat wave melts all the snow and Homer’s plow gets repossessed (and, somehow, the family manages to purchase identical cars to the ones they originally owned by the next episode). Memorable moments include Homer’s excuse for where he’d been, the commercials, Adam West, Homer’s efforts to purchase a car, and God’s intervention.
