Writing Genius Appreciation

Homer's Barbershop Quartet - Episode 82 - S5E1 Episode was written by Jeff Martin. I apologize as it has probably been brought up countless times on this thread, but whether it was Jeff or another writer doing punch up or a writers room collaboration creation - whoever thought to name the barbershop quartet The Be Sharps is truly a comedic genius. For non music nerds - on a music scale (A,B,C,D,E,F,G) every single note has a sharp and a flat. The only note on the whole scale, which does not exist… is the B# aka the B sharp. So to turn it into the quartet name, doubling as the wittiest of puns (We/You should be sharp and smooth), is a prime example of masters of craft writing elite comedy, which imo will never be matched. Another example that gets a hard laugh every time - Jen Crittendon’s writing in the country club - when Kent Brockman’s daughter spits out the food in her mouth and yells at the chef… “Fritz you idiot! I didn’t order a bologna sandwich! I ordered an Abalone sandwich! The play on phonetics and the alarming price disparity is cherry on topped with an 8 year old brat with such a refined palate.
