DYN:
... The character casting in the opening act is fairly appropriate? (The dull but lovable Homer as Forrest Gump, the only black character in Springfield plays Darth Vader, who was voiced by James Earl Jones, and Moe the pervert plays the sex-obsessed Austin Powers)
... U2 is referenced both in the musical number at the end of the episode *and* Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire"?

Carl is also black, but Dr. Hibbert does indeed make a better Darth.
Beee-haaave! <goofy-toothed smile>
Let's not forget the police officer, Drederick Tatum, Luscious Sweet (or whatever his name is aka Don King), etc...

OK. The only relatively portly black character. :-)
Now try imagining Darth Vader chuckling mindlessly.
Uh, Luscious Sweet? Hello?
