Last Temptation of Homer, which was released on November 9, 1998. Other episodes included in the collection set were "Colonel Homer", "Homer Alone", and "Simpson and Delilah". The episode was again included in the 2005 DVD release of the Last Temptation of Homer set. It was also released in May 1998 on the seventh volume of the Best of The Simpsons video collection, together with "Bart Gets Hit by a Car". The episode was later included on The Simpsons season two DVD set; released on August 6, 2002. Scovell, Matt Groening, Al Jean, and Mike Reiss participated in the DVD's audio commentary. Cultural references The episode name is a parody of One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish by Dr. Seuss. The sushi bar that the Simpson family visits is located on a street called Elm Street, a reference to the A Nightmare on Elm Street film franchise. While waiting for Homer to finish his meal at the sushi bar, Bart and Lisa sneak into the bar's karaoke room and sing the theme song to the 1971 film Shaft, "Theme from Shaft" by Isaac Hayes. In the karaoke room, a gentleman introduces himself as Richie Sakai, a reference to a producer on The Simpsons with the same name. He proceeds to sing the 1971 song "Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves" by Cher. Homer sings his own version of the gospel hymn "When the Saints Go Marching In" while listening to Lisa playing her saxophone one last time. When Homer arrives at his home after leaving Moe's Tavern, he hammers on one of the windows of the house and shouts Marge's name. This is a reference to the 1967 film The Graduate, in which Ben Braddock (Dustin Hoffman) does the same and runs to the church, pounds on the window, and yells "Elaine! Elaine!" As Homer awaits his death, he listens to Larry King read the Bible on tape. King says he thinks the San Antonio Spurs will win the NBA title that year (in real life, the Chicago Bulls would win their first of six titles in 1991).
