So it turns out that Hans Moleman was once the mayor of Springfield! This episode is based on the history of Springfield's anthem and how its the same anthem used in about fifty other towns. It was interesting seeing the flashback at the beginning of the episode showing Moleman as mayor, a revealing part of his background we knew nothing about.
So Bart and Lisa write a new town anthem which is praised and loved by almost everyone. Homer gets stuck in his theater seat, causing him to join a group of fat people who love being fat. Pretty funny stuff.
I think the episode was for the most part, very fresh towards the beginning, then after the first act, it was old news. I have seen Homer in groups so many times. The story about the plagiarized anthem and Hans Moleman was the best part of the entire episode.
