The bookends with Grover dressed as a butterfly were funny, particularly the end where Grover calls two butterflies Maxwell and Lucida. The Mr. Noodle bit in the new EW was sorta funny where he thought butterfly meant butter that flies.

It's little odd to me that the Murray & Grover sketches need to have animated butterflies added to them to justify the "butterfly" theme. Theming episodes is a good idea, but their execution is forced.
