I really enjoyed this episode! Whit was just wonderful. I don't know about you, but did he seem a little more pre-hiatus? I really loved that they brought Red back too, I missed him. I feel like we got some good character development for him especially in the scene where he was talking to himself. (that was fantastic)

So, you almost feel like you have to hide your treasures away and can only take them out in secret on rainy days when your mom goes to the store to get more liver and nobody is around to berate your sensitive spirit. Is that what you’re saying?" -Jay Smouse
Ya Red really makes it funny!! But I don't like to think of him as a replacement for Bernard 
That's just sad!

Bleh, this episode was awful. Someone posted on the facebook group about it, and I knew I wasn't going to be looking forward to it. What is with all of these overtly redneck stereotypes? It was awful. As the poster on the facebook group said, it would have been much better as a BTV episode or something instead of supposed to have actually "happened"...

Why is this in a album? It would have made more sense to have Things Not Seen on this Album instead of this.

I feel like this was irrelevant. Like, how does this episode relate to past and present AIO?

I know right. I gave this only a half star for that reason.

Hilarious. I love a good obligatory Hatfields vs. The McCoys episode. It's one of the best Loony Toons, one of the best mlp's, and it's an excellent aio episode.
There's something so fun about familiar cliches unapologetic-ally hammed up, it makes for such memorable lines. This isn't a direct quote as this episode was awhile back, but: "When men start getting ideas, that means trouble." The stereotypical-country-ized Bible verses were to die for. "It also says, y'all be a horde o' vipers!" It's always fun to see Whit in an active role and especially one involving the Bible. Actually, have we ever had an episode centering on Whit and how he sees and uses the Bible vs. misuses of it? As crazy as it is, with how central Whit's Bible knowledge is to the show, I don't think we have.
The moral was an unusual and gutsy one. The Bible can be misused and misunderstood, and is. It can cause conflict rather than stop it. That's not something Protestant fiction usually addresses.
Anyhow, I laughed. A lot. And will listen to this one several times more.

I would agree with all of those points. I love it when aio exaggerates a moral dilemma so we can see it on a broader scale before experiencing it on a less out-of-control scale later. Like when they replaced drugs with a talking chicken. It was a goofy slash creepy episode that may have been unrealistic but completely got their point across and in the end it was very effective.

I loved it! I have always loved Red Hollerd! Their names are Scottish. I thought that was really cool because I am Scottish. My ancestors go as far back as the Mayflower!
