|    Notes for UABF08 (Bart the Cool Kid)    |
|    20 Mar 22 17:55:59    |
      From: mxg77@po.cwru.edu              Not bad, though also not amazing. This seemed to straddle the realms of       classic pop culture commentary and basing an episode around a celebrity, and       it didn't get stupid and unwatchable - the eventual story development of dads       ruining cool things was        pretty good - but it also seemed to lack bite, or something. But hey, could       have been a lot worse, and having the celebrity not play himself is a big plus.              DYN:       ...the popcorn stops popping immediately when the microwave is turned off?       ...multiple lines were changed after animation?       ...the Bart sneakers, although "randomly" colored, go yellow-red-blue from top       down, as Bart's head, shirt, and shorts do?              Previous episode stuff       YABF21: this Mike Wegmans guy is back       2F01: the knockoff Bart sneakers are called Bort-1s              As usual       The race ran long again today, so out here, the 7:00 repeat (UABF01 airing 3)       didn't run at all. The next show (a rerun) was joined in progress about a       third of the way through.              And finally...       We're only a little bit through the UABFs, but it looks like some episode       codes from next season are out, and to my astonishment, next up seems like       OABF. Yes, as weird as it was that with no end in sight to the show the       letters Q and U were chosen to        follow Z, rather than I and O, it's even weirder that I and O themselves are       not going in order. I doubt anyone is planning for the show to end at season       34, so why not go back to I first? Is that the only letter that will turn out       to be completely        forbidden, or will it just come next anyway? In any event, I see that the four       originally-skipped letters will spell out QUOI, a useful mnemonic, as it's       French for WHAT, as in WHAT the hell is going on over there??              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
