Talk:Alone Again, Natura-Diddily

Naked Gun reference?

 * "Maude's death is similar to Ricardo Montalban's character in the 1988 film The Naked Gun."

Yes, it is similar as both characters fell to their death from bleachers, but that is as far as it really goes. These "cultural references" sections are used to highlight direct references (e.g. the Citizen Kane references in "Rosebud"). This is merely a coindicence. I'm surprised that the Naked Gun parody hasn't been mentioned in the cultural references section of "Cape Feare" -- Sideshow Bob had a marching band trample him. That's more likely a direct reference to the Naked Gun. 84.92.93.58 23:42, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Beloved character
Since when was Maude Flanders "beloved"? She was the most boring character ever; nothing but a neurotic harridan. --Tysto (talk) 03:14, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Pre-episode advertising?
Was the episode advertised as involving a characters death but it not revealed who? I ask because some of the things shown in the episode see, to suggest an element of suspense over who's going to die. On the other hand the title gives it away so it doesn't seem like it was a big secret Nil Einne (talk) 19:04, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

I think the episode was advertised before the title was released, not sure though. It was so dumb of them to release the title at all - I mean, why would an episode about Skinner or Moe dying have the words "Alone Again" and "Diddly" in the title? Wimpyguy (talk) 21:37, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Penis shower
It is probably noteworthy in this article that the censored penis shown when Flanders is showering is depicted in well above-average length. His personal article puts it like this:
 * In the episode "Alone Again, Natura-Diddly", it is implied that Ned has an extremely large penis that goes down to just above his knee.

I’m not certain about proper wording or placing, but also regarding the pretty sexual explicitation, it should be mentioned here. (I also wonder why it isn’t, since it could’ve given rise to controversy, which was probably overshadowed by the other.) -- WA1TF0R䷟ 12:49, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
