And lo, the Lord sayeth unto Peter, "Do not permit the womenfolk into your tabernacle, for they are icky."

Elizabeth Van Lew? Not Belle Boyd, the Cleopatra of the Secession, the Siren of the Shenandoah? Sir, ah say sir, I demand satisfaction.

I had thought my enjoyment of this show might die with Ecbert, but I'm such a fan of Jonathan Rhys Meyers' silliness that I'll be back to watch those sexy lips smack on the scenery next season. I do hope before the life finally passed from the old boy that he recalled the time him and Lagertha got it on in that very…

Jean-Claude Van Damme…never quite made it to the A-list

After he plummets from the falls we hear Milhouse deliver a plaintive "My glasses!" I love the fact that, when he's seen again later in the classroom, his eyewear has been crudely patched up. That's the kind of nice little detail that made classic Simpsons.

If I had a quatloo everytime sometime told me that!
