A gem. A fun and well liked episode of the series. Grandpa just won't die.

This "TFTD" episode "A Case of the Stubborns" is fun and clever really one of the better ones of the series and it's notable as Christian Slater is in one of his earliest roles. It involves a country family a woman and her son(Christian Slater in one of his first roles)who have just recently lost a family member. That happens to be the father of the woman and the grandpa of the boy he died, yet oddly enough the next morning at the breakfast table he shows up! Looking just as old and stiffed wrinkled as can be! The makeup and graphics of this episode were well done. They try to talk to grandpa to tell him he's dead yet he's stubborn and will not listen. Only each time his skin ages more and he looks more and more dead. Strangely it ends with the little boy getting some magic of his own to take care of the situation in a magical and comical way, that's all I will say I don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen it. Overall well liked and good episode one of the series best.
