Ughh. I don’t think that’s penis envy. What you are referring to sounds like “hating the pretty blonde”, which really is just plain envy (or is it jeallousy-haha).
Hmm, maybe literal penis envy, but not in the freudian sense.
SO, if you continue with that point of veiw, Homer feels inferior to Ned’s good nature, morals, family, and…schlong, thus has resentment. Hmm. this sounds Kleinian.
Are you crazy? Homer steals from Flanders all the time! He throws beer cans at his head, he razed Flanders’ flower beds and salted the ground, he slams doors in his face! When Flanders saves Homer from the house fire, Flanders says, “Heck, buddy, you’d do the same for me!” and Homer pictures Flanders waving and screaming while he (Homer) lolls in his hammock drinking beer and laughing! He only “helps” Flanders for the sake pulling off his half-ass schemes, like building a house and making a dating video, and he did both poorly.
And AFAIK, I hope they never do another Flanders episode. He’s just…not…funny. He’s a walk-on character: The door opens, Flanders is virtuous and Homer is rude, the door closes and they move on.
Wiggum: And as soon as someone’s in your house, anything you do to them is nice and [wink] legal!
Homer: Oh Flannndersss…won’t you join me in my kitchen?
Wiggum: Uh, it doesn’t work if you invite 'em.
Flanders: Hidely-hey!
Homer: Go home.
Flanders: Doodely-doo!
That’s all we need to see of him. Flanders episodes are not funny because all the humor plays off of him; he doesn’t provide any.
