Simpsons Top 100 Countdown
#66 Homer to the Max
Season 10, Episode 13 (Guide form the Simpsons Archive)
Watching the new midseason television lineup, the Simpson family stumbles across Police Cops, whose main character, a millionaire playboy super-crimefighter, is named Homer Simpson. Homer thrives on all the attention he gets from having the same name as the character, but when the next episode airs, it turns out that they made significant changes from the pilot and the Homer Simpson character is now a bumbling buffoon. The townspeople all have a good laugh at Homer. After an attempt to get the show's writers to change the character back fails, Homer gets his name legally changed to Max Power. Marge dislikes the name, but it's a huge hit with everyone else. Max becomes in with the in crowd, and ends up at a predominantly celebrity demonstration to stop loggers. Max ends up thwarting the protesters and pretty much single-handedly knocking down all the trees that the protesters are trying to protect. Things, as always, revert to normal. Memorable moments include midseason shows, Homer showing off and later being tormented for his name, meeting with the writers, changing his name, Homer's song for his new name and the run-in with Burns, meeting other new people, the party, the swab of pepper spray, and changing Marge's name.

Its all about the song!
Max Power, he's the man who's name you'd love to touch! But you mustn't touch! His name sounds good in your ear, but when you say it, you mustn't fear! 'Cause his name can be said by anyone!
