- Sure.
-- CJC 18:12, November 12, 2013 (EST)
- Yeah, especially too now that extra long couch gags are practically an every episode occurrence. --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 21:12, November 12, 2013 (EST)
- For sure. -- Webkinz ManiaTalkContributionsEditcount 23:16, November 12, 2013 (EST)

Special circumstances?[edit]
Okay, I think that should only really be one special circumstance, the Guillermo del Toro couch gag. That was a whole opening sequence packed with characters and references so it should get its own article. Other than that, all other couch gags can go into the Gags tabs.
