    Hmm. Not too great, though I guess I'll see how it plays out next week. It just
    rubbed me the wrong way, and a lot of the humor fell flat. Written by guest star Pete Holmes, whose comedy I like, and yet just blah. Also, neither person is a priest, so why
    the title? (Also, very very short.)

    DYN:
    ...outside of the opening sequence, the Simpson house is never actually seen? (I only realized this after the multiple mentions of Homer's selling the house.)
    ...two episodes in a row (air order, I know YABF13 is a production season off) with special blackboard gags and references to Flint/Michigan water?
    ...Krusty seems to refer to a "Lunchlady Dora" (not Doris)?
    ...Pete Holmes doesn't actually know how to pronounce coxswain properly anyway (it's more like coxun)?

    Previous episode stuff
    2F16/20, WABF04/05: the only other two-part episodes in Simpsons history (though only this and WSMB were aired as two halves)

    That's about it.
