Um... "Synopsis"?

It seems that the synopsis is a summary of what is seen and heard on the screen. It should be rewritten to make it seem more like a plot summary. Samurai 004 06:21, 2 December 2006 (UTC)sure i love it

Main Page

I'd like to take a stab at getting this article featured on the main page. I was hoping for May 20, since that is the day the 400th episode airs and it only seems fit that we try to get an episode on there. I have asked the admin in charge if he would put episode pages on the main page (he said he'd think about it), but if we want a legitimate shot, I think we need to make a section for it that is longer than the lead and has a slightly extended synopsis, and a bit more production info. Any ideas? -- Scorpion 12:50, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

You can go ahead and try. I am satisfied with just the FA status. I won't have a problem with it not being on the front page, since it is a minor pop culture article. --Maitch 13:42, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Main page II

Here's what I am going to submit and I am going to request May 20th:

"Cape Feare" is the second episode of The Simpsons' fifth season, which premiered on the Fox network on October 7, 1993 after being held over from season four. The episode features Sideshow Bob getting released from jail and trying to kill Bart Simpson. The Simpson family enters the "Witness Relocation Program" and is sent to Terror Lake, however Bob follows them there. It is a spoof of the 1962 film Cape Fear as well as its 1991 remake, but alludes to other horror films. The production crew found it difficult to stretch "Cape Feare" in order fulfil the standard length of a half-hour episode, leading to the adding of several memorable scenes. "Cape Feare" was written by Jon Vitti and directed by Rich Moore and was the last episode to be worked on by the original writing staff. Kelsey Grammer guest stars as Sideshow Bob. The episode is generally rated as one of the best of the entire series and the musical score by Alf Clausen received an Emmy Award nomination.

I wouldn't mention the "Rake joke", because people who haven't seen the episode can't possibly know what you are talking about. --Maitch 17:26, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Done. -- Scorpion 17:29, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
