Billy Idiot features another one of Billy\'s dream occupations. This time, he wants to be a ballet dancer. I can\'t believe that his dad had to jump off stairs, just to do the Chicken Dance. And Billy\'s grandpa is surprisingly in better form. It was disturbing to see Harold in a tutu. But after all that, this episode was pretty good.
Home of the Ancients was my favorite of the two. I couldn\'t stop laughing at Dracula\'s random remarks. They portrayed the three monsters in a funny way. Sure, the dance party at the end was random, but it made me laugh when it closed up on Sperg dancing. It was kind of creepy though. The credit scene was hilarious. But through that, this has to be one of the most well written episodes in the series. So I give in a 9/10.moreless

ADD QUOTES-
Grim: (pointing at Frankenstein's Bride Billy, do you know who this is?
Billy: Your Mama? -
Billy's Dad: Now look, Billy. It's not that I think you're (farts) girly for doing it. It's just think that you're not MACHOFORTE.

Grim: Uh, excuse me, sir? Do you have time for an informal survey? What do you think is more frightening, these three SCARY monsters, or this glass of water?
Man: (gasp) WATER!! Eh, eh, WATER!!!
Grim: Look, mon. I'll give you five bucks to think those monsters are scary. -
Billy's Dad: Hey, Billy. (seeing Billy's soul getting sucked away by Ms. Pollywinkle) You forgot your dance bag in the car. Oh my gosh! An evil witch is using this ballet school to recruit innocent dance students so she can steal their souls! And now she's about to suck out Billy's soul!
Grim: Wow! That's pretty good! He got us faster than you did.
Mandy: Shut up. -
Grim: Huh! Well, then. Maybe I should have mentioned that the only possible way a dark witch can overpower my scythe is by turning it into a giant snake and using it tie us up.
Mandy: Whatever.
