    TOH: eh. Nothing grabbed me, and the final story was indeed disgusting. I think
    the Coraline one was something of a missed opportunity, but then I suppose to do the original justice would get into territory usually covered by sad-Lisa episodes. Very short. Music not by Alf Clausen.
    The "Springfield of Dreams" mockumentary that aired this afternoon was kinda cute, even if it was full of terribly cropped and stretched clips of old episodes.
    DYN:
    ...the opening sequence has its own title this time?
    ...Snowball II is a boy cat now?
    ...the Coraline-styled Simpsons look somewhat like the Ullman-era Simpsons? ...Lisa gives the third story an old-school (TOH 1-5-ish) content warning? Previous episode stuff
    (4ACV09: Does Pazuzu's use in a Futurama episode count?)
    DABF06: Milhouse still says "wazzup?" like that old commercial
    CABF14: Homer cuts off his own finger with a chef's knife
