    The idea in the beginning looked very good and interesting but it wasn't fulfilled which is sad.

    Totally nailed it !

    This episode totally nailed it. One of the best in the show history. Classic Simpsons fell. Loved it !

    I like that this episode focuses on someone different

    We never really knew anything about the Flanders' kids until now. Here we could learn something about Todd. All in all this episode is not bad, but still not comparable to old episodes.

    Funny and heart-warming episode

    From ancient times, Homer/mother relationship is a tad difficult and beautiful thing to explore!

      In the overhead shot of Ned and Homer in the hospital room, their beds have a privacy curtain between them that is pushed back against the wall. When the shot switches to floor level, the curtain disappears.

      Todd Flanders: [the Reverend asked him what he would thank Jesus for] Thanks for nothing. My mommy's dead and she's never coming back and I don't believe in God anymore!
