Summary

"Homer, please; don't tempt the gods! I mean GOD—there's one god! Only one. Well, sometimes there's three..." - Ned Flanders

Broadcast season 16 begins with three spooky tales that probably should have aired less than a week after Halloween. Ned Flanders receives deadly premonitions, Lisa becomes a Victorian-era detective, and the entire family takes a fantastic voyage into the withered body of Mr. Burns. All this, and two uses of the Perfect Strangers theme? Let the commencement begin-ulate!
