Radioactive Man (The Simpsons episode)
"Radioactive Man" is the second episode of ''The Simpsons''' seventh season. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on September 24, 1995. The episode sees the film version of the comic book series ''Radioactive Man'' set up production in Springfield. Much to Bart's disappointment, the part of the hero's sidekick, Fallout Boy, goes not to him, but to Milhouse. Milhouse, however, hates acting, so he quits the role and leaves the set, forcing the producers of the film to shut down production and go back to Hollywood.
The episode was written by John Swartzwelder, and directed by Susie Dietter. Mickey Rooney guest starred as himself in the episode. "Radioactive Man" was the first episode of ''The Simpsons'' to be digitally colored. The episode features cultural references to the ''Batman'' television series, the 1995 film ''Waterworld'', and the song "Lean on Me" by Bill Withers. Since airing, the episode has received positive reviews from fans and television critics. It acquired a Nielsen rating of 9.5, and was the fourth highest-rated show on the Fox network that week.
==Plot==
Bart and Milhouse are thrilled to hear that a film version of their favorite comic book series, ''Radioactive Man'', is in production. Rainier Wolfcastle, the star of the ''McBain'' films, is chosen to play Radioactive Man, and even more excitingly for the Springfield Elementary School children, the production moves to their town. A search is launched for a young actor to play Radioactive Man's sidekick Fallout Boy, and Bart auditions. Bart does well, but is rejected because he is an inch too short. Milhouse gets the part, albeit reluctantly, under pressure from his greedy parents.
A despondent Bart is told by Lisa that he is still needed as Milhouse's friend and confidant, and Bart eagerly accepts this new role. However, Milhouse finds his own job intolerable and disappears, right during the filming of the most expensive scene in the movie. The film is suspended while the townspeople search for Milhouse. Eventually Bart finds him in the tree house, and despite encouragement from former child star Mickey Rooney, Milhouse gives up on his acting career. Mickey Rooney tried to take over as Fallout Boy; however, all production on the film is aborted, with the project bankrupt, thanks to price gouging and other unscrupulous conduct by the people of Springfield. Despite Rooney's stern lecture about their greed, Mayor Quimby insists the townspeople can not give any of the directors' money back to them, so with their film cancelled, the directors return to Hollywood — "where people treat each other right".
