Review by Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) This article can easily pass GA as is, but since we're here, might as well look at the article with an eye for FA:

  • "would a fun and light way " In this context, "fun" and "light" are most nearly the same.
  • "to convey the horrifying plan" Plan of what?
  • "Several reviews considered the episode one of their favorites of the series" Add a "to be" before "one".
  • "Santa's Little Helper's mate" Why not "She's the Fastest"?
  • "The puppies, however, do not like to be separated." The puppies haven't actually been separated yet, "like"-->want.
  • "Montgomery Burns then arrives" So did he just materialize out of thin air for the fun of it?
  • "The standing dogs are too cute for him to kill however,"-->However, the standing dogs are too cute for him to kill ,
  • "and raises them as world-class racing dogs."-->and raises them to be world-class racing dogs.
  • "Mirkin thought it was great"-->Mirkin thought that it was great.
  • "actor who lived between 1922 and 1999"-->actor who lived from 1922 to 1999.
  • "Groening said that animals in cartoons often behave with "semi-human awareness", but that he liked it when animals in cartoons behave exactly the way they do in real life, claiming that "Two Dozen and One Greyhounds" is full of that." "that" is repeated four times in one sentence.
  • "All the animal noises for the episode "
  • "Anderson noted that during the episode's censor screening, there was a giant laugh at the joke." I don't see how two mating dogs make for a joke.
  • "sung by Jerry Orbach in the film Beauty and the Beast."-->which is sung by Jerry Orbach in the film Beauty and the Beast.
  • "B–" Use the minus (−) symbol instead of an en dash (picky I know). Dabomb87 (talk) 15:31, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
All done. The sentence with four "that"s was a funny problem; I managed to cut it down to only one "that" but still keep the same sentence length. Gary King (talk) 16:32, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, passing. Good luck at FAC! Dabomb87 (talk) 16:44, 21 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
