Angela Anaconda

Season 2 Episode 18 - The Great Granny Grudge / News At Eleven

The Great Granny Grudge Grandma Lou is back in town and Angela couldn't be happier. Grandma Lou is just as fun as any kid. One day while playing, Lou hurts herself and Bill decides that it's time his mother had a friend her own age. Angela knows just the person-Nonna Abatti. But Angela is unaware that Nonna and Lou were once good friends who now hate each other. As soon as Nonna makes the family connection between Angela and Lou, and Lou makes the connection between Johnny and Nonna, the Grannies forbid their respective grandchildren from ever having anything to do with one another. Angela enlists Bill and Uncle Nicky to help settle matters. However, these two sons have no idea why their mothers are truly fighting and end up trading insults with each other. Soon Angela and Johnny are forced to choose sides. Will the two of them be the generation where the feud finally ends? News At Eleven Mrs. Brinks' class has been chosen to do a newscast for the community-access channel. Everyone gets assigned plum positions. Gina gets to be the food critic, Gordy the weatherman. Even Johnny is excited because he's on the crime beat and is sure to get an "A" thanks to his Uncle Nicky's knowledge of crime. But Angela's hopes of becoming the news anchor are quickly dashed when Mrs. Brinks unsurprisingly chooses Nanette for the job. Angela is assigned-the farm report! Not one to let her bad luck bring her down, Angela decides to do the best farm report ever. Nothing exciting seems to happen though on Farmer Jangles' farm. The apples are rotten and the rooster is cranky, neither of which seems newsworthy. When Farmer Jangles mentions that his goat has just given birth to six kids, Angela instinctively knows that the goat will be the focus of her report. There's just one problem, Nanette gets wind of the goat story and scoops poor Angela. Now Angela has no story, no assignment, and no choice but to get even with Nanette!
