Overseas Animation: Akom
TV Rating: TV-PG-DLVREVIEW: B-plus - this had all the makings of one of the better
episodes of the season, except that somebody decided that
yet another version of "the wedding's off, and let's never
speak of our engagement again" might just work this time,
especially after they've been setting it up for years.
And does this mean Mrs. Krabappel leaves the show? After all,
that's what happened on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and
"Friends" when the weddings on those shows pretty much broke
up (okay, on "Friends", they actually got married, but the
bride broke up with the groom about 10 seconds later, so that
doesn't count...)REFERENCES "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" (title) 1F21 (someone turns down two marriages) 2F17 (Milhouse is in his Fallout Boy costume) 4F04 (Homer and Marge get married again) "The Jetsons" (Lenny dressed as George Jetson) "Captain America" (Dr. Hibbert in costume) "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" (song Skinner was singing) "Futurama" (Lenny mentions it; Milhouse has a Bender doll) "Life in Hell" (someone calls MG "Groan-ing"; MG mentions signing autographs/doing drawings "on the street")
REFERENCE I CAN'T THINK OF AT THE MOMENT I remember one show where a policewoman showed up at a bachelor party, but everybody there thought she was a stripper putting on an act, right down to putting everybody in the "party wagon" (or, as she put it, the paddywagon).
DYN ...Homer continued to whittle batteries in the dark even after Marge left the bedroom? ...Lunch Lady Doris is still alive (and silent)? ...Lisa wasn't in the band playing during the wedding? ...Skinner's mother was sitting on the bride's side? ...at the wedding, the van Houtens were sitting on opposite sides? ...Comic Book Guy never mentions his real name? ...Mr. Largo plays violin? ...Comic Book Guy has a Superman logo tattoo? ..."classic drunk Barney" is back? ...at the convention, Lenny was dressed as George Jetson ...that was no lady Mayor Quimby was with at the wedding - that was his wife? ...the animated Matt writes/draws left-handed, like the real one? ...the sketch Matt draws for the kid in the Spider-man costume is of Fry (from "Futurama")? ...Homer speaks Klingon?

Bride Pride ----------- Agnes Skinner Superintendent Chalmers Jasper Kirk van Houten Professor Frink Dr. & Mrs. Hibbert Mayor & Mrs. Quimby Disco Stu Bumblebee Man Judge whatshisname (the black judge) Chief Wiggum Apu & Manjula Mr. Burns's lawyer Bart
