   Matt Garvey to All   
   Notes for YABF08 (I Want You (She's So H

   From: mxg77@po.cwru.edu   
      
   A middling concept with a little promise but bad execution and awful awful   
   gags. (Most of them were just bad, but why follow up Homer's impossible   
   bathing-suit-drop gag with a shot showing them immediately back in place??)   
   Very short. Wallace Shawn is    
   nice to see.   
      
   Oh, and as far as the couch gag goes: the couch HAS been replaced since 1989!   
   It was rather promimently replaced in 1992 in 8F23. Way to go.   
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   9F07: Mr. Plow in cloud opening   
   CABF12: Dr. D.R. Heffernan gag a lot like Lt. L.T. Smash   
   3AJN22: Marge's wagon of snacks contains Wheat Thicks (oh wait, that's a   
   previous episode of American Dad!)   
      
   Dedication time   
   Luke Perry died fairly young during the week, and before the Gracie logo is a   
   quick dedication to him with a still from 9F19. A fond farewell.   
      
   And finally   
   For anyone keeping track, this dumb Nascar race ended before 7 but coverage   
   ran for a while after. At about 7:13 we got the 32-second abbreviated NABF21   
   opening, and at 7:15 the repeat of YABF03 was joined in progress, with about a   
   minute to go in the    
   current act. It's been a little while since this has happened!
