"They took the foam off the market because they found out it was poisonous, but if you ask me, if you're dumb enough to eat it, you deserve to die."

Simpsons Top 100 Countdown
#22 Homer’s Barbershop Quartet
Season 5, Episode 1 (Guide from the Simpsons Archive)

At a swap meet, Bart and Lisa discover a record album that has Homer’s face in its artwork. Homer goes on to tell the tale of his barbershop quartet. His group had modest local success with members Principal Skinner, Apu, and Chief Wiggum. A talent agent expresses interest, but only if they drop Wiggum (“too Village People”). After replacing him with Barney, they take off and have great international success, especially with Homer’s hit song “Baby on Board” (inspired by those signs hung in car windows). Unfortunately, they fall just as fast as they rose. As a side note, the barbershop group singing is the Dapper Dans, which many of you have probably seen at Disneyland; word is, they appreciate requests for the song. Memorable moments include Mayor Quimby at the swap meet, assorted junk, talent agent, dropping Wiggum, new member auditions, Homer writing music, Wiggum’s attempts to rejoin, naming the group, explaining it “that way” to Marge, the press conference, television, Grammy award category, Homer meeting George Harrison, further Grammy bashing, Marge compensating for Homer’s absence, the Yoko Ono character’s drink order, assorted Beatles jokes, and the fact that Jon Lovitz did an audio commentary for the episode despite having nothing to do with it.
