This is the worst episode in Simpsons history. Interesting but risky idea, done in the worst way it could have possibly been done.

Homer is portrayed as this callous monster who killed Maude and feels little remorse for it, and the episode is filled with dumb sex jokes that don't fit the serious themes.

To be fair, they killed her in crude and tasteless fashion intentionally. Her VA was trying to get too much money, so they killed her favorite character out of spite.

>"The episode features the death of the character Maude Flanders, who had previously been voiced by cast member Maggie Roswell. This kill-off was the result of Roswell leaving The Simpsons in spring 1999 after a pay dispute with the Fox Broadcasting Company, which airs the show. Since 1994, she had been flying between her Denver home and Los Angeles twice a week to record episodes of The Simpsons. She eventually grew tired of this, and the price of plane tickets was constantly increasing. As a result, she asked Fox for a pay raise from $2,000 per episode to $6,000 per episode. However, Fox only offered her a $150 raise, which did not cover the travel costs, so she decided to quit."

The funny thing is that they didn't HAVE to kill her. Just write around her.

They went ahead and killed Maude because some idiot in the writers room suggested it, not out of malice, and sold it to the rest of the crew by claiming it would open up new episodes for them to focus on Ned being a widower and dating and shit.

They didn't suck.

They actually humanized Ned considerably, turning him into less of a purity stu type and got him out of his religious comfort zone and such.

And given that those episodes happened against the backdrop of other less talented writers using Ned as a punching bag for their hatred for the religious right, they saved Ned's character from being reduced to being a walking talking anti-christian punching bag.

but even when Maude was alive they did Humanizing Ned episodes.

Infact the only humanizing Ned episodes that stuck were when he dated Edna, and that was decided on fan reaction with little to no development.
