There’s No Disgrace Like Home” is the fourth episode of Season 1. It was an early episode, showing early designs for a few recurring characters. Several critics have noted that the characters acted differently from the way they would in later seasons. The episode features the first appearance of Dr. Marvin Monroe and the first series appearance of Itchy & Scratchy, who had previously appeared in the Ullman Shorts. The episode also marks the first appearance of Eddie and Lou.
After an embarrassing experience at his company picnic, Homer begins to wonder if his family is too dysfunctional. Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie attend family therapy sessions with Dr. Marvin Monroe, an unorthodox psychotherapist who uses shock therapy to “cure” them.
