Oh, wow. This place looks great. Oh, I feel like a witch in a magic shop.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Excellent Gravity Falls tonight!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Thanks! I need to change my season pass to the right channel, I guess.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Disney XD is rerunning it again at 11:30pm tonight.

Oh, that's where I'm seeing it. I wonder why the DVR didn't catch the first showing. Whatever, I'll see it, that's the important thing.

I have my DVR set to grab first run episodes on any channel because Disney seems to switch around what channel they show them on.

I tried to do that for a while, but it fills up my limited capacity for series recordings. The episodes eventually show up On Demand, if nothing else.

So this article makes the case that the Simpsons episode Flaming Moe's is really about how Sam Simon got cut out of credit for helping to create the Simpsons. It makes a whole lot of sense.

My memory of watching Flaming Moe's when it first aired was that was when The Simpsons changed for me from being this flash-in-the-pan TV show to something much greater. It just reached a level of perfection that I never saw in a TV show before, and it was able to sustain it for a long time afterwards.

RIP Sam Simon.
