Foster's not perticularly unique in that respect.

Ones not devoted to action, only a couple.

Hey guys, did you miss the moment before Mac freezes time in the end?
Bloo says: "As your sidekick I say DO IT!"
I think that made up for him shutting the door from Mac. After insisting not being Mac's sidekick throught the whole episode I personally found the line quite sweet since it seemed to be such big of a deal for Bloo (as seen in other episodes too).

It was a great episode overall. I didn't get much out of it the first time, but I just watched it the second time and found myself enjoying it. Bloo definitely has some hilarious moments there, and it was refreshing to see that Mac is, behind the intelligence and great sense of morals, just an 8-years-old kid. Watching him getting upset over Goo's attempts to win him and Bloo in the imaginary battle made my day.

I have to admit, though, that at times the characters seemed a bit alien to me - minus Goo whose personality actually got much deeper. It would be cool to know who the writer is, and if this really was his/her first episode. If so, it would make a lot of sense.

A B it is. This is not gonna be one of my favourites, but it was definitely a good episode.

Ah, I didn't notice that. Awwwww.

I totally agree about Mac. I always love to see him acting like a kid.

And yeah, it feels like someone else wrote it -- strange and disjointed. I'll have to watch it again, since I wasn't paying terribly close attention the first time, but that's the impression I got.

Muaha! I wonder if Goo kept the potato whale or if he's living at Foster's now too. xD Probably neither, because we weren't supposed to catch it, I guess. Really, check it out. In her room, when she wakes up and sees all the space nut boogies and whatnot, THERE'S A FOR SERIOUS POTATO WHALE! x3 I never would've noticed if I hadn't paused it when I was making Mom watch it and she had to go make dinner. I sat there for a sec, then burst out laughing and freaked her out. 8D

I have the craziest reputation for pausing movies at the weirdest moments...Haha.

You're not alone, I did in fact notice when it panned out to show all of Goo's latest creations before it faded to black, there was in fact the...Potato Whale! amongst the group. Sadly Mr. Potato Whale did not get anymore screen time aside from the brief cameo.

Here's an interview I found with Thatcher: http://movies.ign.com/articles/035/035854p1.html

Kirk has surely done a lot of work. A model painter on E.T. and Star Wars, director of Muppets, actor/song writer on Star Trek, writer on Foster's... :bloogrin

No I didn't realize that! Awesome you pointed it out, because it makes me feel better about the whole scene now. I forgive Bloo. :bloogrin
So he can be REAL STUBBORN, but EVENTUALLY, he'll get the point and give in sometimes. Okay, this makes me take that negative point off of Bloo. LOL
YAY! Mac n Bloo forever. :bloogrin:)

Yeah the ep DOES seem "Disjointed", nice choice of word there. I think it was a little odd at times and a bit OOC, but that's happened in a few other eps. (Foster's Goes to Europe comes to mind) and well, I think we just have to expect that once in a while. Keeps things interesting, to say the least.

Yay, Jii has made me feel better about that ep now. Thanks Jii! ;)

Exactly, and usually he gives in very subtly without really admitting he was wrong and someone else was right, and this little scene was a prime example of that. :bloogrin

The pleasure is all mine! I'm glad it doesn't bother you so much anymore.

"I made pants pie"
One of the few crud jokes in the series, yet the funniest.:-/

Sadly, that doesn't make me feel a whole lot better about the incident.
