Can we get a better image? This is really low quality. Anthrcer 08:09, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA Review

This is my first serious GA review. I'm putting this on hold for the time being for four reasons:

1. The sentence concerning the plot in the lead seems a bit abrupt. Perhaps adding something like "The episode is a commentary on violence in media" to it at the beginning might make it flow better.

   Done and done

2. Are you certain that Rocco only played Myers in three episodes? IMDB counts at least four appearances.

   IMDB is wrong. The character has APPEARED 5 times, three times voiced by Rocco, 2 times voiced by Hank Azaria.

3. First sentence of Plot is also a bit worrying. The way it is now almost implies that Maggie hit Homer on the head because he was making a spice rack.

   Done

4. Does this article really need a picture of David from the episode itself? Would not a free picture of the statue itself suffice? --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 16:41, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

   I decided to include a screenshot of David, because I felt that people who had never seen the episode would wonder how the statue was drawn in this episode, because the statue is nude and full frontal nudity is forbidden on primetime telvision. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 18:23, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm satisfied, and the GA criteria doesn't seem that stringent about FU usage. I'm passing this article. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 18:27, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Itchy and Scratchy Redone

The quote "Lemonade? Please" comes from Homer vs Lisa and the 8th Commandment when he's flipping through the changes. Anyone else notice this?

Actually, this episode aired first, so it couldn't have "come from" that episode. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 01:09, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
