editWhy do you have to delete it? Don't let me think that you will delete every single episode.
Song mention?
editI noticed a song used in this episode (what it is i don't know, my guess was Mannish Boy). Should that be mentioned? --Harrison1967 01:48, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
Goof
editThere was a goof in this episode. When Homer is leaving Mr. Burns' private plane, Svetlana says something to Homer but you can see that her mouth isn't moving as she says it. vDub 05:51, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
CGI
editIt's clear that the "outside airplane" scenes used Computer Generated Imaginery, and this is the first time the series does it, right? Should it be mentioned? Tuntis 15:23, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- I think similar techniques were used for the opening segment of Treehouse of Horror XVII and the boat/storm scenes in The Wife Aquatic. I could be wrong though. -- Scorpion0422 16:42, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
- It's rare, but I think it's been done before. Although, if anyone can find out the first time, then it could be mentioned on that episode's page. Rhino131 19:18, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
Song when Homer wears his bowling shoes

Quick comment
editI don't have time to do a full review, but the 'Notes' section is a bit odd. Generally, avoid very short subsections like this. I'd consider if this is relevant at all? The JPStalk to me 08:43, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
- Someone must have added it and I didn't notice. Anyway, terminated. Gran2 08:49, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, occasionally cruft added by IPs slips by us and it can stay in an article for an extended period of time. -- Scorpion0422 04:37, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
UK Mis-Spelling of Name
editThis episode was on today on Sky One, but in the description it said "He Loves to Fly and It D'ohs" instead of the regular title. Could this be noted? I don't know if there's any proof anywhere though. --Zoton2 21:54, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Good Article nomination
editGA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
- Is it reasonably well written?
- A. Prose quality:
- B. MoS compliance:
- Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
- A. References to sources:
- B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
- C. No original research:
- Is it broad in its coverage?
- A. Major aspects:
- B. Focused:
- Is it neutral?
- Fair representation without bias:
- Is it stable?
- No edit wars, etc:
- Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
- A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
- B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
- Overall:
- Pass or Fail:
No real problems with NPOV, prose, or the images, but the episode summary contains information that is not mentioned in the source (i.e. the life coach's name, the bowling shoes part, the pilot's heart attack). As I don't know whether that could be counted as original research, I'm requesting a second opinion. NF24(radio me!Editor review) 21:26, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- The episode itself is also used as a source, it's just not cited there. I could add a citation for the actual episode for the plot section if you like. -- Scorpion0422 23:34, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I see no problem with original research and I concur with the original reviewers other positive assessments. That all said, shazam, it's a good article: GA awarded! Mmoyer 02:35, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Episode name
editI was under the impression that all Simpsons episodes have (annoyed grunt) or something in their title instead of D'oh. Is this the first episode where it doesn't do this, or am I wrong? 99.240.189.78 (talk) 21:37, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- A few have done it before. Its about 50-50. Rhino131 (talk) 22:56, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
- What's the title a reference to? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.70.113 (talk) 03:24, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
Australia
editDoes anyone know why the nineteenth season took so long to get to Australia? It just finished airing like last week or something, but we didn't get it until 2008, whereas it came out in america in 2007. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mamaluigibob (talk • contribs) 07:54, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
Because FOX8 are too lazy. 92.233.156.165 (talk) 12:26, 30 December 2008 (UTC)ZoDanma
"Clair de Lune"
editI added the following sentence to the article:
Throughout the episode, in scenes where Homer is coping with his loneliness and sorrow, "Clair de Lune", the third movement of Claude Debussy Suite bergamasque, plays as the background music.
Of course, anyone who is familiar with the piece will recognize it being played numerous times in this episode, as it has been in several other episodes (Donnie Fatso, A Star Is Born Again). Mentioned in this forum, and this one, but a better source is needed, obviously. Cheers! bd2412 T 22:58, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
