March 11 • Bye Bye Nerdy (CABF11)
Lisa tries to make friends with a new girl at school, but she isn't as successful as the other girl's attempt to punch Lisa; Homer becomes a "baby-proofer"

Thanks, Wildcat. Come to think of it, I do remember seeing the commercial of Homer baby-proofing the house.

WOW! What a stinker... I mean PU, this episodes sucked bad... one of the suckiest ones I've ever seen. It contained but one good line of dialogue, one of the best actually, when
Spoiler:
Ralph says he and Millhouse are a totem and he starts to sing. I'll bet the indian community will have it removed, but it was funny as hell.

WORST EPISODE EVER!

Well, I just wanted to get that out of the way...I actually liked it. Pretty funny stuff about nerd pheromones.

It's just like Speed 2, except with a bus instead of a boat!

Personally, I thought tonight's episode was great. Ralph talked, so how could it not be?

Overall, I'd give the show a B, maybe a B+, but I'd need a second viewing (someone send me a TiVo!!!).

I liked the Lisa story, but the Homer baby-proofing stuff really built to nothing. The funniest parts, in my opinion, were the Drederick Tatum classroom discussion, the scientists (mostly Frink) at Lisa's demonstration, Ralph as a totem pole and Martin "mastering" stairs.

I agree with everything you said. The hilarious quote, it was a great episode, and I agree with what you said about Ralph. I hope they feature him in an episode again soon.

I thought Poindextrose was a stroke of genius.

The ending fell a little flat, but mostly entertaining.

Question tho'...
Spoiler:
Was Homer beating up Smithers in his high school flashback?

Kind of a sweet ending for Futurama, too. You knew Bender was gonna do what he was gonna do at the end, but still it was sweet.

When Lisa is making her presentation, and the geek scientists are grumbling about bullies, one says "Let's not listen!". For some reason, that had me cracking up for several minutes.

A couple of minor laughs (mentioned in this thread), but mostly it sucked. Nowhere near the best episode of the season; this year's been pretty good.

We need more episodes based on the minor characters, like a good Mr. Burns, Moe, or Apu episode.
