That was great.

Also liked Marge's Flanders-English / English-Flanders dictionary (and Ned's Simpsons-English / English-Simpsons dictionary... "Woo hoo")

Agreed. I can't recall another episode this season that I actually enjoyed like this.

Wow.

The episode last week made my personal top ten of all time. I can't wait to be able to sit down and watch this one.

I've really enjoyed this season so far.

I love how in the "hell mirror" Burns was a King and got to eat Smither's head.

When they were playing Christian Clue, what was the solution? I know the murder weapon was something like "Misinformation".

Much more of an early series style episode, with the limited storylines and more realistic family-oriented approach (at least to the Marge/Flanders part, as far as realism is concerned). Ironically, I didn't like it all that much. Although it's always nice to have a Mr.Teeny (err, "Louis") appearance.

Didn't enjoy it as much as last week, but still got plenty of laughs. Really enjoyed the cameos during the credits.

I believe it was the "Secular Humanist" in the "Classroom" with "Misinformation."

something has changed in the last 2 episodes, the pace seems to be classic simpsons and the gags are very numerous and well thought out.
I'm liking this.

I agree with most of you that this was actually a pretty good ep. I certainly liked the fact that it got more realistic with Rod and Todd. Making two characters who have always been incredibly unrealistic grow up a little helps offset the unbelievable cartooniness (Is that even a word?) that Homer has become. I also liked how the stories came together at the end.

Another for this episode.

Todd's line at the end had me along with the cameos at the end credits.

What a fantastic episode yet again.

I loved Flanders' version of "Welcome To The Jungle". Wish I had the time to rewatch and transcribe!

Wow. Two episodes like this back-to-back? It feels like 1994 all over again.

Welcome to the Jungle Gym
I'll make it safe again
When play time is a safe time
Everybody wins
I'll lay down some astroturf
so they don't scrape their
kn-kn-kn-kn-kn-kn-knees

The best part was him wrapping the tree with bubble wrap.
