YMMV / The Simpsons S3 E10 "Flaming Moe's"

Go To

  • Accidental Aesop: Don’t be greedy. If Moe was so impressed with Homer’s drink he should’ve teamed up with him for exclusive rights to the recipe. Instead, he decides to take full credit and cut Homer out entirely. Moe would’ve made just as much money had he just included Homer, but he wanted it all to himself, which resulted in Homer ruining everything at the worst possible time out of spite.
  • Alternative Character Interpretation: Was Homer oblivious to Bart being jinxed or was he just trolling him?
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: The Flaming Moe is spiked with cough syrup. Flash forward a few years and we have Purple Drank, a drug beverage made by mixing certain types of cough syrup with soft drink.
  • One-Scene Wonder: Hugh Jass, who's nice enough to not mind Bart's inappropriate use of his name in a prank call and in fact even appreciates his honesty regarding the whole situation.
  • Values Dissonance: Moe's advances towards Colette especially with him being her employer would be seen by most women as harassment today, even though it is treated as completely harmless.
