|    Notes for YABF13 (The Incredible Lightne    |

      From: mxg77@po.cwru.edu              Not bad, though both plots could have been fleshed out a little bit (and as a       result, the whole thing needed a 2-minute song to bring the episode up to a       passable length). Nothing big to complain about otherwise. And finally the       YABFs are done. It's odd        how many episodes get left behind a good year or more these days; was this one       held back just because of the second Maggie theatrical short (which I didn't       see, or even know existed for quite some time through total lack of promotion)?                     DYN:       ...Lisa remarks that she didn't see the falling of the Berlin Wall (which       happened mere weeks before the half-hour show premiered)?       ...Burns says the common redundancy "the hoi polloi" (hoi is a definite       article)?       ...Cletus's "left" right hand reverts to a normal right hand almost       immediately (within the same shot)?       ...this is the first episode this (air) season with regular credits music?              Previous episode stuff       CABF14: Nod to I.M. Pei                     Repeats and dedications and promos, oh my              A few notes from the off weeks:              3/29's second airing of ZABF09 (Screenless) actually retained the James Lipton       dedication, though if it sticks around for the third, I'll be surprised. I       have a hunch the early stages of Corona panic kept some fiddling undone.              Less surprisingly, 4/5's second airing of ZABF11 (Better Off Ned) removed the       dedication (to Max von Sydow); and its third airing of YABF19 (The Winter of       Our Monetized Content) was the same as the second, no dedication, still the       11/3 date in the        Gorillas on the Mast in-episode teaser.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
