The Scots (originally Irish, but by now Scotch) were at this time inhabiting Ireland, having driven the Irish (Picts) out of Scotland; while the Picts (originally Scots) were now Irish (living in brackets) and vice versa. It is essential to keep these distinctions clearly in mind (and verce visa). 1066 and All That In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.

Hm, there was nothing I hated about it, but the whole thing did feel a little unfocused. SOrta like they were following the Bob episode formula and not putting all that much thought into polishing the script/plotting. But it was decent. B-

I actually watched an episode! Gasp!
My review's pretty on par with Steve's. I didn't hate it, and there were some really funny jokes here and there, but it was a little unfocused and unpolished.
Bob's got quite a family, heh.

Once again, I missed an episode becuase my roommate and his girlfriend were watching the freakin' football game. I wish they'd watch the game at her house once in a while...

This really was pretty terrific (if a bit abruptly handled in the beginning). A lot of neat callbacks (Cecil and Bob's rivalry chiefly) and Lisa got to be the driving force behind the family's heroics, shades of Bart's rescue of Selma in "Black Widower". Only Bob would go to such lengths to finally kill his rival. Funniest moments: So is Pretty good stuff all around, actually. Less abruptness in introducing Bob's deception at the beginning would have pushed this over the top. As it is, A-
