Without a doubt its another GOOD EPISODE and very heartwarming and Myrtle is such a lovable character who is voiced by Jennifer Coolidge who you might remember plays Stifler's mom in the American Pie movies and the voice of Lazy Suzan in Gravity Falls and Aunt Fanny in Robots, little known fact Myrtle was based on storyboard artist Darin McGowan's grandmother who also story boarded the episode. The episode was just so much fun to watch and seeing Myrtle interacting with the kids and seeing the kids liking her to disliking her when she begins smothering them later in the episode and then later finally accepting her as their new grandmother once they find out about how lonely she is, defiantly recommend this episode.
