It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge (The Simpsons)

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge is the 21st and semifinal episode of the eleventh season of The Simpsons. Parker Posey guest stars as Becky.

Plot
When Otto's bride-to-be Becky forces Otto to choose between rock 'n' roll and her, Marge quickly finds herself playing hostess to a now-single Becky. But when Becky's attempt to earn her keep upstages Marge's own homemaking abilities, Marge quickly finds herself losing her mind.

Why It's a Bad, Bad, Bad, Bad Episode

 * 1) This could count as a torture episode for Marge Simpson.
 * 2) The first part of the episode with Otto and Becky feels pointless.
 * 3) Throughout the episode, Marge is claimed to be insane, yet viewers know she isn't.
 * 4) It turns out that Becky wasn't the one who cut the brakes. Homer did it. To be fair, it was an accident, but still.
 * 5) Speaking of which, this episode arguably started Homer's flanderization, as this was one of the first of many moments in the show where he shows his "jerkass" side.
 * 6) Bad Ending: Marge gets sniped by Homer with a tranquilizer, just so he doesn't have to do chores.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) There are some very memorable lines.
 * 2) *"Usurper! Usurper! USURPER!!!"
 * 3) *"Don't mess with me! I've got Jimmies!"
 * 4) *"Shut up, Becky! There. I finally said it."
 * 5) *"The law is powerless to help you."
 * 6) *"Powerless to help you, not punish you."
 * 7) *"This isn't over, Becky! I know where you live! MY HOUSE!"
 * 8) Marge disguising herself as a percussionist in a marching band... that's going to a mental hospital is funny.
 * 9) *It is ALSO the mental hospital's marching band!
 * 10) In some ways, Marge did bring the torture on herself by taking bad advice from her sisters.

Reception

 * Despite a 7.1 rating on IMDB, this episode is very controversial in the eyes of many long-time Simpsons viewers, and is the 7th worst episode according to NoHomers.
