Sideshow Bob is finally back! Hopefully we`ll get to see another classic duel between him and Bart.

I'm looking forward to the episode. I'm predicting Bob has an accomplice.

WARNING: Some scenes may be graphic. Yes I know it's animation and it's not real, but still...

I loved the episode.
Every thing about it. I mean yah the switching face thing was gross but I can get over that. I Laughed more than I did in a few years.
Than again, did any one know notice how obssesed Bob's become with Bart? Guy needs a hobbie LOL.

Yeah tonight`s episode isn`t exactly for the squimish types. Personally i thought that it was a pretty good return for Sideshow Bob and it is one of his best schemes in the last few years. Kelsey Grammar was excellent as usual. Now if TPTB could get his very lovely and talented daughter Spencer to guest star on a future episode where she plays Sideshow Bob`s long lost daughter, who develops a crush on Bart much to the chagrin of Bob.

Face/Off is one of my favorite movies so I loved the twist, although it was pretty graphic. I loved it when Marge said, "A lot of people sound like Sideshow Bob. Like Frasier from Cheers."

Another Moe-centric episode next week.

I missed it, but it should be up on Hulu soon.

Wow, a graphic Simpsons ep? Worse than the Treehouse or Horror shows?

Well, it was a Face Off parody - I thought it was pretty graphic. It was hilarious when Bob dropped the face and announced "five second rule".

To be honest, because it's a cartoon I wasn't bothered by it. I don't think it was much worse than the kinds of things they draw for Itchy & Scratchy all the time.

That was a pretty funny line. I also liked when the woman at the restaurant said, "All the guys I like are gay or have no face!" (or something to that effect.)

I enjoyed it, but I was actually a little disappointed. My expectations might have been just too high, though. Oh and the faces did get to be a little too much.

I loved the shout outs to Grammer's other roles, especially Down Periscope, and there were a few great jokes including the "that's better than what the last guy did" and the "all the good ones are either gay or don't have a face" bits.

Oh and the appearance of Ted Flanders was great.

The Simpsons are in the middle of a Flanders sandwich Did they mention the names of Ted's two daughters?

When Bart first suspected the neighbor was possibly Bob, I kept looking at the feet. I remembered when Sideshow Bob tried to frame Krusty, there was mention of his long feet. I'm glad the writers caught that detail and answered why Bob's feet were small.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Flanders moving in on the other side! That was great, so much Flanders-speak going on at the end there. They did mention his daughters' names, but I can't remember them. I just know they rhymed!

Yah, it always comes back to the feet.
Bob needs to change his feet or some thing

Well, he changed his face. Changing anything else would probably be a breeze.
