(The crotch really does wear out too fast.)
Just realized the last 4 out of 5 quotes of the days are from seasons 9 and 10. Have you run out of quotes from earlier episodes?
Actually, I think seven out of the past ten quotes (counting the additional chapter to the Zombie Simpsons book) were from 9 and 10. I’m guessing it might be for variety’s sake.
I always thought this was a decent episode with some great quotes and scenes. Does it rank amongst the greatest? No, but it is still a very good episode and a good example of how slightly post-classic Simpsons era did Lisa episode where she is not insufferable or mean spirited but genuinely wants to feel happy and accepted for who she is.
That’s how I feel about this episode too. Plus, it’s one of the few episodes of this era where Homer doesn’t dominate (though there is that subplot where he poses for erotic pictures, but that doesn’t really go anywhere).
