This episode was extremely hilarious. It was so funny. I couldn't stop laughing when I first saw this episode. The scenes with Christine in church were really funny, and the part where Christine explains her name wasn't called at Confirmation was just too hilarious. Another funny part was where Christine runs out of the church to get a sub. The writers are very funny and talented. The show is hilarious. This episode is the reason I watch this show. It is a series classic. It is probably the best episode of the season, and one of the best episodes of the series. This episode is another perfect installment.moreless

This series keeps impressing me week in and week out. I have enjoyed it since it's premiere, but it just keeps getting better and better as time goes on. At this point in season 2, this is the best episode to have aired so far. It is simply hilarious. After Richie goes to new Christine's church he expresses interest in going again with old Christine. She however had a bad experience at church when she was younger and now is against visiting church. When she finally decides to take Richie she ends up making a fool of herself at church. This is really a laugh riot! Julia-Louis Dreyfus is a wonderful comedic actress and really shines in this episode. Do not hesitate to watch this episode. You will not regret it.moreless

Old christine learns about old time religion!

6.5

By GeorgeJobson, Dec 21, 2006

Old christine is going back to church as it takes a stance on Religion. christinbe went back just bacause his son went back and her husband went back too. Not many sitcon has done anything on religion and I glad that one sitcon has done somethiong. But a better TV show that comments on religion is "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" where one of the characters is a christian and issues concering christianity is discuss on the show. Old christine's adjustment to teligion is fine but I didn't learn too much about the subject. Next week, Old Christine will learn something else.moreless

I loved this episode! Christine is finally broken down into going to church. It's been years since Christine has been to church and church made her feel awkward then, but now is no different. She still feels uncomfortable, and her insecurity makes for one hilarious episode. She makes a fool of herself countless times in front of the preacher... before she even enters the church. When she eventually makes it into the church, her lack of knowledge of the church causes her to be the last one singing or start preaching with the preacher. This is a "bust a gut" funny episode.moreless
