   > The bigger point is the question of why this episode aired so late (a year   
   to a year and a half late), but if anyone wants to read my ramblings about   
   other long delays, look at my notes on RABF21 (Brick like Me). That's all for   
   now.   
      
   This episode was delayed for almost 19 months because it was a possible plot   
   line for "The Simpsons Movie 2".  Al Jean mentioned it on Twitter:
