Yes, Part One. This here's a dose of dos. Or half of one, at least.

I'm not entirely sure this needed to be a two-parter, but we'll see how things play out next week. It's a fairly down-to-earth plot (and does sort of retread "In Marge We Trust," albeit with a more overtly religious focus), but it is nice seeing Lovejoy get some spotlight. Bode's an okay character, though I think he needs a bit more meat to him beyond "cool new pastor." Springfield having an actual spiritual revival is a pretty neat idea, though.

Yeah, beyond some funny bits like the flipping train table there's not a whole lot to this one. I think the two parter thing is accurate, sure there's a question of what Bode did but it's hard to care that much. Maybe if it was about Tim having a dark secret or Helen or anyone else then it might be more effective.

Also we get Shauna yet again. Has that been like, 60-70% of this season she's appeared in some way? She's not quite as repetitive as the Crazy Cat Lady but seems to be spammed more and... at least CCC's whole thing was funny at first.
