Shintos do say grace, they say "Itadakimasu" before a meal, it mean, "I humbly receive"
the only show cracked needs to make
Christian Rodriguez thank you, no truer words have been spoken...all hail the Church of After Hours!!!
Christian Rodriguez Except for Obsessive Pop Culture Disorder and bringing back Does not Compute. RIP Clippy. :,(
Jesse Rothhammer So basically they should just green-light everything these 4 are involved in, and lose everything else?😀
James Daniels they can keep Roger
Sardonicus I would watch the hell out of a Katie-hosted show😁
Homer lacks the self awareness to realize his deity level powers because of the crayon shoved up his nose
Wait a second, in that episode they remove the crayon and Homer accidentally proves there is no god. So how can Homer be god when he proves it impossible? And how can he go on to meet god several times after mathematically disproving it?
If anything The Simpsons is a universe that takes place inside Homers daydream, that way he can be mortal and fallible but still prove all the points in this video.
Dudley Bone So the Simpsons is just the end of St. Elmo's Fire stretched out over several decades?
Eltonic I am God therefore I am God
James Daniels Oh fuck I'm God
Thou Art God
Every time he speaks about God, Flanders shows up
Or. He's truly God's servant
@@kristophergray9826 I do like the idea of Flander's being Homer's right hand man or something and he's watching over him while he's ignorant to his true power.
Flanders the devil. Remember when he was running hell?
Are Halloween episodes worth counting?
@@FeinryelRavenclaw Nope.
So Homer is basically Haruhi Suzumiya?😂 Ha... Wait... Homer Simpson, Haruhi Suzumiya - they both have same initials!!!😱
Sahantara yep
Sahantara And their both equally annoying.
Sahantara I disliked that show. but yeah Homer def would be a good comparison
Damit Sahantara, that was exactly what came to mind for me xD
(gasp!) They're the same person!
This makes me want to watch every season of the Simpsons again and rethink my life
man, Candice was on point in this episode
not to mention she just gets hotter and hotter every single episode. hell remember back in the first few episodes, she had that frumpy look? Last few seasons, she's just beautiful. Wait, was Candice the original and was replaced by Katie and this episode they accidentally let it slip?
What am I missing here? Who is Candice?
Danjanon pay attention dude
I thought I was
Danjanon the dude is just kidding

@@Saucesovs I see what you did there.
my two favorite after hours theories/ideas/jokes is
1: the entire show is just in Dan`s head/mind/imagination
2: that Sorin is an ageless deity and/or perfect man
Season 7 really loved that "who is this smithers?" joke.
Not exactly Shinto or grace, but the closest thing I know of is itadakimasu, roughly means in context "let's eat" or "thank you for the food" although it literally means something like I humbly receive/accept
Did they really forget that Maud died too? Of all the characters who died on the show, she was one of the most important, seeing as she's the neighbor of the Simpsons, was in several episodes, and, was mentioned in episodes after her death.
Regardless, great episode.
The best Christmas present is an After Hours episode tbh
I want the complete Nerd Prayer. Now.
Dear Lord,
Keep Women and EA out of our things.
Amen.
Their was that time when Bart was Jesus and Jesus is the sun of god....
Who is the moon of god?

DJ Kinney Get a life, don't get ur knickers in twist just cus of a misspell.
Fun fact, "Shinto" isn't actually a confession, but a collection of animistic believes. Most japanese people practicing Shinto actually see themselves as "without confession". There was a brief attempt to make Shinto into a confession during the Sakkoku time, but that failed simply due to the greatly syncretic nature of Japanese approaches to religion.
Thank you for that interesting fact, I love Japanese history and culture like this, so it's great when there are others to talk about it with!
I don't understand your use of the word "confession" here... Do you mean 'an organized religion?'
zerosysko Not exactly, I mean 'confession' in the sense that it is something you are actively a member of or not. That hasn't necessarily got anything to do with organization, Wicca is a confession but not an organized religion for example ( as far as I know at least). Shinto, on the other hand, you just practice as traditions and folklore. There's no actual 'awareness' of actually practicing a specific 'religion' involved there.
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
I think confessional faith refers to a commitment to formal doctrinal statements, and acceptance of a whole theological teaching.
God and Jesus on the Simpsons are the only characters to have five fingers. Homer has four. Discuss.
So the four fingers could be the constant reminder that you are in "the matrix" and not the real world; always present but not really affecting too much. Like in lucid dreaming how you check your wristwatch at regular intervals when you're awake to train the ability to tell when you are dreaming. If that makes any sense to anyone else lol
MikkiJoeRingtail It is an alternate universe where the laziest human transcended into godliness through his sheer laziness. His name is Homer.
God created man in his image
Jason Goatcher neon genesis Simpsons
@@julianbeldham8684 Does that make homer the god of the people in the simpsons?
OMG Homer is Haruhi Suzumiya!!!
Sorry for nitpicking, but during that Book of Exodus segment where you said Homer was the only person there we'd seen before, there was a guy we'd seen before on screen - Jacques, the bowler who Marge almost had an affair with. Everyone in that scene represented something forbidden by the Ten Commandments (hence "Homer the Thief"), and Jacques was there to represent adultery. Either Jacques is immortal too or, as I interpret it, the people in this universe just get reincarnated as the same dude again every time they die.
I can give Homer demigod status. A god must be all-knowing, all powerful and all good. Homer barely makes the threshold for all powerful. Good and knowing are still out of reach.
Rahsaan Footman, since when does a god have to be any of those? Polytheistic deities are none of those.
Rahsaan Footman why does he have to be good and knowing, for example the Christian God is all good or all knowing
"Isn't" goddamn spellcheck
andersoncherub True, but a Christian monothestic god is and Homer lives in that religion and culture. If you are willing to say the Christian god is fallible, belligerant and/or impotent then you charge has weight. But in the Simpson, God is a five fingered, face never revealed entity who often does act in the world. I call him a demigod because like Hercules or Theusus, he has power but very liyttle brains on how to use it.
The "all powerful, all benevolent, all-knowing" god condition has been disproved over and over again. "Why is there suffering in the world?", and all that.
In a polytheistic way he might well be a god in the Dionysos kinda way. He is hedonistically all powerful, immortal, and sufficiently all-knowing to support his own hedonism. Actually not knowing 'everything' works in favour of his own hedonism. He doesn't actively know about what would make him upset but always learns it throughout an episode and resolves it by the end.
You said "a Homer is there" so Homers is not a single person. He is a definition of being.
How everything bible related happened "2000 years ago"? 'cause Moses was already ancient history by the time of Jesus
Yeah that's some poor biblical scholarship right there.
So you're saying that in 2000 years, literally nothing changed.
No, I'm saying that saying the events of the book of Exodus happened 2000 years ago is literally crappy biblical scholarship, it was probably written during the Babylonian exile and is about events taking place in the 6th century BC...
Jesus and the New Testament are 2000 years old. The Old Testament goes back thousands and thousands of years, to the dawn of monotheistic religions, i.e. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The Old Testament is where the stories of Adam and Eve, Abraham, Moses, Noah, Kind David, etc etc etc are. The New Testament is Jesus and the Apostles. That's what the BC and AD is all about when discussing Western history: BC is before the New Testament, and AD is after Jesus died and Christianity was adopted by Rome (and then forced onto the rest of the world).
In the clip, it showed the scene happening in 1220 BC, not 2000 years ago.
"Homer is the only character we recognize" while a bearded Jacques is on screen.
TheOtakuX Jacques isnt referred to by name, so it may be an ancestor. Homer is referred to as "Homer", and considering Homer is a name of greek origin - not hebrew, so it must be the same Homer; not an ancestor of Homer.
That guy looked like Jacques but he had a different name and voice
So, Haruhi is just a cuter version of Homer then.
There seem to be three types of After Hours: The ones where they ignore suspension of disbelief and tropes to make a "Theorist"-level point (like here), the ones where they assume a fictional world is real and talk about consequences (like the one stranded on the road or the one about commercials), and finally the ones where they look at fiction as fiction, and discuss unintended implications / reasons for tropes (like the one about dead moms or the one about Forest Gump).
Type 1 I could live without, Type 3 is my favorite.
2:14 - Michael says "Homer is the only character that we recognize" just as the ancient version of Jacques (the bowler Marge has an affair with) shows up, with a beard. He's not voiced by Albert Brooks in the 2nd Commandment episode, but he does represent the sin of adultery, and the face is basically the same.
Ben Buckley Productions
thank you. I was going to say this too.
Continuity is not one of the Simpsons strengths.
A person who's god but doesn't know it? THAT IS THE PLOT OF THE MELANCHOLY OF HARUHI SUZUMIYA
Wow.....I think they are determined to explain all of the Simpsons
-113;($
Mt Sainai scene - Homer isn't the only recognizable character, Jaques is there with a beard! That's 100% Jaques, Marge's brunch loving bowling alley fling. He has a beard, but so does Homer. His voice is different though, but that's not enough to make him a completely different character - Not by After Hours rules, or even by Simpsons ones. So Jaques off-model is still Jacques... But we *do* know the voice. In a different Simpsons episode of After Hours they reference 'the guy with the Brooklyn accent who does all the different jobs' (known as Raphael in all his iterations), he's a recurring bit-part character that usually always looks slightly different and is still always meant to be the same guy. That's the voice Bearded Ancient Jaques speaks in. But he's always Raphael, even if his hair, face, skin, clothing, or whatever are different... Holy shit, is Jaques actually Raphael the whole time? Is Raphael also a god?? Cracked, I need answers!
I mean, I always knew Homer's teachings were the guiding light in my life, but I thought I was just oddly obsessed with a TV show. Now I know it's the one true faith and I don't need to be ashamed anymore. Thanks Cracked!
Um, that scene you showed shows that he does grow old.
Think about this, if he was a god and taking on generation after generation of families, wouldn't it be out of the ordinary to look the same as you did and your mate looking extremely older during 40 years? I'd say his healing factor doesn't kick in until he thinks he's gonna die, then reverses his aging process for the next wife.
Evil King I see... I think you've converted me!
May your donuts be glazed in his glory.
Evil King but he isn't self aware enough to do that
Joseph Harding that's what we think... (conspiracy theory)
"The world is ready for a method homer"
After Hours: The best thing on Cracked, no question. Worth the subscription; love you guys.
I've been going down the rabbit hole on old After Hours episodes for about the last week and I have no regrets.
please never stop doing this show
I think Homer Simpson is immortal because he had a uranium rod stuck to his back and didn’t die. Also, he has had many painful experiences such as head injuries and other stuff, a heart bypass, drinks too much and has alarmingly high cholesterol
Please do more After Hours. This is why I subscribed, lol.
This marks my 9th time watching this episode... it just doesnt get old
What's like a respectable, scholarly way of saying Katy is absolutely hawt? Maybe I should send her a Christmas card. Or should I wait till Valentine's day?
What's, like, a respectable, scholarly way
Of saying Katy is absolutely hawt?
Maybe I should send her a Christmas card.
Or should I wait till Valentine's Day?
I read this in an English accent and the poetry seriously moved me. Perfect! The slant rhyme, context, substance, and timeliness!
Or have I had too much to drink? Oh well, it was a great poem!
Dear Katy,
The exact arrangement of tendons, muscles, bones and skin that make up your exterior is appealing to my eye.
Sincerely,
Carl
Chris Varghese Exacty what I was looking for lol. Exceeds expectations even! Well done.
Homer can’t be ageless when there isn’t only flashbacks of him as a child and a baby in modern times, but also the fact he has parents that are clearly not older than 100 years.
Homer is the slumbering god. No matter what happens in the world of the Simpsons it will revolve around Homer, not always directly but it will always weave back into the narrative of the entity known as Homer Simpson, this is because Homer is pure generative consciousness, a single 'point of creative focus'. The flashbacks aren't flashbacks at all; they are happening in the now in the dream delusion godhead Homer has cast itself inside of. Homer is simply the compass needle used by the Brahman to orient and entertain itself throughout eternity.
6:36 I was doomscrolling when the video paused when he said, “let’s return to our resting states”. Freaky.
The melancholy of haruhi suzumiya
When it showed Homer 2000 years ago, he wasnt alone, there was another guy from the future. The guy who was creeping onto Marge when he was giving her bowling lessons
Okay, the snake handler/Moe reference at the end was extremely well done. Bravo.
I'll follow doctor whodaism or lady firefly of serenity
Raeanne Bedard our Doctor who art in TARDIS, unknown be thy name
I wonder if this is also a throwback to Agents of Cracked, in that Michael's character was also some sort of god-type being who was also generally unaware of his powers.
Each episode of The Simpsons occurs in an different alternate universe.
Also, Moe's pacemaker scar is in completely the wrong place.
do the next afterhours about how all sitcom characters always sit in the same location in their bar/pub/drinking place the can even start with a scene with four other people in their seats like jack o'brian, katy stoll, cody johnston and one other person maybe the noob from escort mission.
1:44 When did Katie "point out" that Homer lives thousands of years into the future?
2:13 We also recognize Zohar the Adulterer as Jacques from "Life on the Fast Lane."
6:12 Well he's not a barber so of course barbercide won't kill him.
What an amazing early Christmas gift! Thank you all!
Did they mention the couch gag where the camera zooms out and at the end its shown that the entire universe is just an atom of a hair cell on Homer's head?
What happened to this great RUclips channel? It seems to be inactive.
I REALLY want this show to come back
HOMER REALIZED THAT HE IS IN SOME KIND OF SIM AND CONTINUES TO PLAY ALONG
Who's here after seeing Small Beans 'Off Hours'?
You know it.
Oh My Homer! I've been converted.
At what dinner can you get fruit loops
Lexie Robin most
Gout of my house. well not in florida apparently.
Lexie Robin have you ever even asked for cereal at a diner? Most have a few different types to chose from at breakfast time.
That's probably the best After Hours yet...and that's coming from someone who's not a Simpson's fan!
This is more why Homer is actually Haruhi Suzumiya
No one here either for 4 months. Like there is that much good new stuff out there to watch.
good bye after hours... I'll miss you
Naming live-action Homers, Michael yells the cartoon Jabber Jaws.😂Should've named himself though. He'd make a great Homer.
Another excellent video. I was so excited today when I realized this was out, and couldn't wait to get home to see it. Keep it up!
I waited forever for a cracked ep. 😂😂 thank u
excellent stuff. This was better than the Football to the Groin, and that one had a football to the groin.
"God is all powerful, but doesn't know who he is." You just described the plot of *The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya*
I've just learned Homer's beard was a beard and not just a weird mouth thing. Everything I thought I knew was a lie..
are we gonna pretend as if they didnt show a scene of Homer being 40 years older after saying he cant age...
Homer dies when the nerdy dude makes a ton of clones of him when he keeps on die
"The world is ready for a method homer" Dan for fucking prez
These are my favourite videos by far!!
1:00 i need that full quote as a phone wallpaper
I find myself thinking of Cecil on terms of one being unaware of there own immortality.
This was the ultimate post modern conversation
Do I tell cracked that they are wrong how youtube works?
How often does telling someone on the internet how they're wrong work out for civilization?
Oof lil late for that one.
“God who doesn’t know he’s god and gets to live life guilt free” is kind of the premise of the irl religion Gnosticism. Or the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, whether you subscribe to the explicit “haruhi is god” paradigm or the theoretical gnostic “kyon is god” paradigm.
Homers a day walker and those donuts aren't jelly filled .
I cannot and probably will never be able to take Simpsons theories seriously, I'm sorry.
Finally this is why I subbed to this chanel
Homer Simpson is Haruhi Suzumiya. They even have the same initials. *X-Files theme plays*
Just keep making these and I'll forgive your atrocious, ad-laden, preachy, greedily multi-paged site.
Homer is western animation's Haruhi Suzumiya. 15 years before Haruhi was creataed.
Ugh, can't you just put the words in text form so I don't have to listen to these people?
I see what you did there.
Why don't you just go read Cracked?
Sweet Hater you missed what he was truly saying
Lie Nad Yeah, I may not have given him enough credit.
Sweet Hater You really are a sweet hater.
Actually, in one episode (I forget which one), Homer dies, but then a clone gets made of him. Then that clone dies, and a new one is made, and so on and so on.
Pacemaker scars don't go away because they have to be periodically reopened.
Well, my childhood nostalgia is now officially ruined because of this video.
Lol, Daniel Day Lewis as homer. "I eat your DOUGHNUT, I eat it ALL up..."
Soran is like a less dysfunctional version of Denny from It's Always Sunny.
I refreshed it just for you
this video was so good i turned it all the way down to normal playback speed!
Great Lord of Sunlight, Gwyn. May he never fall to Ashes.
Oh wait he did...better find a new deity.
Yet again, after hours is the best part of my evening.
The Simpsons jumped the shark in the episode where Homer becomes Mr Burns' personal clown. After that point, Homer went from being the goofy but kind and loveable father to a convenient target for jokes and easy go-to to tie up a story arc. I don't think you can really consider anything after that episode to be real evidence of his immortality although even with that mind, there's still a lot of evidence prior to that.
The fugu fish did not simply fail to kill without explanation. They were not sure that Homer had actually eaten the poison. They had "reason to believe" he had eaten some, and that if so, he had -24h- 22h to live. Clearly he hadn't.
So... Homer is Haruhi?
4:00 the best example is when Bart and Lisa go to school in hell and for a project Bart literally commits hell torture on him
The snake handler thing came back? That's cool
Would you ever make these into DVDs? Cause if so I would totally buy it. Just an idea for when you end the series.
