The cover is unusual. Well, many people do not observe the eighth commandment "Do not steal", but at least Lisa got through to Homer.

Homer vs. Lisa and the Eighth Commandment.
Homer becomes the most popular person in Springfield when he makes an illegal connection to pay cable television. But Lisa is against it and promises that Homer will end up in Hell because he does not fulfill the Eighth Commandment - "Do not steal." Lisa consults Reverend Lovejoy, who says she just shouldn't watch stolen TV. Later, Homer invites all his new friends to his home to watch a very important boxing match on cable, but his conscience begins to wake up, and Homer turns off cable TV after the fight.

Cool series. Made me think again about paying for Netflix. 10 bucks a month is not such a big price for that bunch of great content for which they dump a lot of money.

It is unrealistic to live in life, fulfilling all the commandments. It is necessary to be a hermit or a recluse or simply not of this world. Just trying to be a good person, regardless of the commandments and other things, is already an achievement.
It's a little strange that in such a small town, this cable guy only offered Homer and Flanders illegal cable. Or did others refuse because of their decency? Then why did they come to watch the match to Homer?
The series is not particularly funny, rather moralizing.

@Sensation2102: yeah) but then I got tired of it so quickly, now I can't watch TV at all, even though there are already hundreds of different channels

The biblical beginning, as always, is good for them (but for some reason it seemed to me that Moses would repeat the joke from World History "here are fifteen for you... Ah, one crashed... the Ten Commandments!"), and the adulterer, as I understand it, is the dude from the bowling alley who molested Marge.
Interestingly, Frederick Tatum is already called by name (and in one of the frames already has that famous real manager with a funny hairstyle), but it looks completely different.
And of course, in two scenes at the TV, it is interesting to consider the extras canceled later, school and adult. And this is probably the only episode in the whole history when one of the regulars of Mo's bar in glasses and a green baseball cap (for some reason I always thought that he was such a typical trucker driver in a bar from the 80s) at the moment of Tatum's victory still rips the baseball cap off his head, but this can only be seen on pause.
