This episode was certainly better than the last 3, but still didn't flow very well. It was a very good beginning, with the rocket and all, and followed the formula of starting with something unrelated to what would happen. But, it didn't finish that way. I don't like the idea of Lisa being a Buddhist. "No sir ree Bob." A few thoughts...
- Why is Richard Gere around? Do we need a celebrity every 2 weeks?
- Recycled material - Karl Karlsson asks if Gere really did all those situps in An Officer and a Gentleman. Gere responds by saying he did one and "they played it 1000 times." This is the same as the Poochy episode where the voice of Road Runner says they only payed her for one 'meep' and then doubled it.
- What was the point of the scene with Jimbo and Kearny talking to Bart? I can find none whatsoever.
Now, I must watch football.
