   After watching it, I am half-hoping maybe they are considering this a   
   "pilot" for advancing the age of the characters by a few years.  One thing   
   I noticed in this episode that was different from other age-advancing   
   episodes was how they aged Milhouse.  He is normally still short but has   
   facial hair or something.  In this episode he was tall and almost looked   
   like he could have been drawn by someone else (i.e. like some of the guest    
   couch gag artists).

   I got a kick out of that.  ;)   
       
   I also wondered what was wrong with Sarah Wiggum's voice.
