   Matt Garvey to All   
   Notes for ZABF12 (Warrin' Priests, Part

   Hmm. Not too great, though I guess I'll see how it plays out next week. It   
   just rubbed me the wrong way, and a lot of the humor fell flat. Written by   
   guest star Pete Holmes, whose comedy I like, and yet just blah. Also, neither   
   person is a priest, so why    
   the title? (Also, very very short.)   
      
   DYN:   
   ...outside of the opening sequence, the Simpson house is never actually seen?   
   (I only realized this after the multiple mentions of Homer's selling the   
   house.)   
   ...two episodes in a row (air order, I know YABF13 is a production season off)   
   with special blackboard gags and references to Flint/Michigan water?   
   ...Krusty seems to refer to a "Lunchlady Dora" (not Doris)?   
   ...Pete Holmes doesn't actually know how to pronounce coxswain properly anyway   
   (it's more like coxun)?   
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   2F16/20, WABF04/05: the only other two-part episodes in Simpsons history   
   (though only this and WSMB were aired as two halves)   
      
   That's about it.
