Loved the commentary! It was a fun episode, and (ahem, surely you know this!)...
""We are right in the middle of what we in the field like to call a UFO flap, and I am as happy as a pig in shoes." - I love that line, "a pig in shoes" - I've always been a fan of little-used expressions. I don't think pigs would actually be happy in shoes."
Well, where I come from (where we actually raise pigs), the proper expression is "a pig in shit". Really! A lot easier to imagine than pigs in shoes.
Guess 'shoes' for 'shit' is like Bobby's "balls' for **** (insert whatever). Maybe they have to give up a vulger expletive for every blood splatter or related gore.
Thanks again for your review! Nice to revisit this epi.
