Ok, so I can't find [spoiler]Lucille's facelift[/spoiler] anywhere. I watched the FOX.com clip, and the Yahoo one, too. Can you guys point me in the right direction, please?

Unfortunately, I think at the time they shot this, it was planned to be the last episode of November, so it's not looking good.

Hey, The Simpsons' Halloween episodes always air in November - if our Christmas epiosode airs in January, we could be just like them!

Stupid Fox.

I think Tobias's headbandage is meant to look a little like a turban, kind of like George Sr.'s in "Sword of Destiny".

We get Hallowe'en episodes all year round here.

Also, Beamer very subtle!

Yeah I realized that right after I posted. That's a shame. Hopefully we'll get one in January though.

Can someone point where the clip with [spoiler]Lucille's facelift[/spoiler] is? I've only seen the one with Bob Loblaw. :cry:

I've only seen the Lucille clip on the Fox promo feed we get at our station. I haven't seen the promo air anywhere

I saw the Lucille clip. It was funny. When I looked at the screen, I sort of gave a little scream. But, then I realized that all the Bluths were screaming too. I feel like a Bluth.

I saw the clip last night when I was watchin' the Simpsons it was funny I *think* Lucille had a martini glass in her hand.. I would to if I looked like that.. douche chill! Up top anyone?! Hah ha right?.. right?.. hey where is everyone at?

I haven't seen the promo, but...Why all of a sudden do they think disgusting = funny? The Tobias hairplug was a flop, I'm not sure where they are going with the Lucille facelift thing, but the trend of trying to take unrealistic nasty crap and try and make it funny is troublesome.

I wouldn't say that Tobias' hairplug thing was a flop, I enjoyed it. And maybe Lucille's facelift isn't disgusting, it's all in the eye of the beholder. I havn't seen the promo yet.

I agree. I saw the promo, and I didn't think it was all that funny. I really don't understand why FOX is showing that. First of all, I thought it was completely random, which describes most of the AD promos shown on FOX. I also don't understand why they equate disgusting with funny. I hope this Lucille facelift thing wasn't a flop like the Tobias hairplug thing was.

Having seen the promo, it kind of looked like someone took a crap on Lucille's face. But it was really quick shot of her face so maybe it was my imagination.

I just wanted to say that last week, Fox 17 in Nashville pre-empted both episodes of AD for a St. Jude's Money Begging Hour.

Now, before you get riled, I support St. Jude's every year with a nice check, and I think they do great work.

But if they pull this stunt again, I'm writing a strongly worded letter to their Station Mr. Manager.
