Joe, it was just vapor lock...

Just wondering, why does skittlebrau redirect to this episode even though the article doesn't mention skittlebrau? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.227.136.6 (talk) 02:15, 15 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I noticed this as well. I'm not even certain this episode was the one that mentioned Skittlebrau, I'm checking on that. -- Atamasama 17:42, 24 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
I have verified this is the Skittlebrau episode. Homer asks Apu about it before noticing that Bart is in the Kwik-E-Mart playing a video game, he then apologizes to Bart for overlooking how badly he was playing. -- Atamasama 22:07, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well i don't usually review TV articles but since this one has been waiting for so long..

  • To help them stay in shape, the parents enroll their children into pee-wee football, including Bart - the Bart bit is just tagged on the end and not everyone will know who he is
  • The coach, Ned Flanders, helps keep the undefeated, missing a word
  • but finally quits and gives the
  • he hassles him on the bench too much - please reword
  • Homer initially acts tough toward Bart -> towards?
  • to lose a few games
  • Bart decides to pretend he is extremely injured
  • Joe Namath appears to give his final thoughts on the episode - who is this guy? an introduction would be nice
  • The episode was written by Donick Cary, who obtained inspiration for it from when he was younger, where when he was in high school, he had a football coach who also had a son on the team. You can remove the "younger" mention as high-school implies it
  • special treatment to, as Homer did. Remove the Homer part, it's mentioned in the lead and plot several times
  • George Meyer got inspiration for the scene toward the beginning of the episode where Rainier Wolfcastle is taunting the kids when he was following behind Arnold Schwarzenegger during a hike, and Schwarzenegger also taunting his kids - is really confusing
  • Schwarzenegger's influence was again seen in the same scene
  • en dash for date range, see WP:DASH
  • The final scene took a long time to be finally made. The writing process for it was considered to be difficult, and was originally different when it was read at the writing table. This short paragraph is poorly worded, considered difficult by who? it is an opinion and needs to be attributed
  • Other King of the Hill characters, but none of them spoke. Missing words in this sentence
  • amath also guest starred on the episode, and was was - "was was"
  • Originally, Marv Albert was going to play the part Firestone played as a sports radio host -> Originally, Marv Albert was going to play Firestone's part as a sports radio host
  • Nothing on reception in the lead

That be all, if you disagree with anything feel free to mention. M3tal H3ad (talk) 04:16, 27 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

  • own version of the veverage - spelling error
  • $1 link to [[$US|$]]
  • "from a time when he was following behind Arnold Schwarzenegger during a hike. During the hike, Schwarzenegger also taunted his kids" is confusing
  • "and was liked by the staff, as they claimed that, "He was very humble and was great coming in." pointless trivia, remove M3tal H3ad (talk) 03:31, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
Both images need to be smaller than 300x300 pixels to qualify as fair use. Under 300px is considered low resolution. M3tal H3ad (talk) 07:23, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
Resized the images myself, please choose something better than "Bt1" or "Bt2" when naming images, something like Bart Star - King of the Kill would be more appropriate. I also fixed some grammar issues. M3tal H3ad (talk) 10:35, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
