Mistakes happen. Most shows have at least a few animation mistakes, even to the best programs. No big deal.

And guys, please, we are drifting miles away from being on topic. :P

Maybe Catclops is like a living mood ring, his colors reflect how he is feeling at the moment.

Also, the man in the cell phone suit (Phone Home) had a coloring mistake once. In all the other scenes, his suit was yellow with blue buttons, but when Bloo said "Not now, Ed! Can't you see I'm on the phone?", it was blue with orange buttons! :cheese:

On demand took "Bloo's the Boss" off it's listings. CN must of got mad.

Or maybe because the episode is set to debut on the actual Cartoon Network this week.

That's very likely. I'm pretty sure it's not the former.

Yeah, that's likely it. I can't wait for Season 4 to air here... ;)

You'll love it when it does...

Just a few mroe days...!

No fair! Comcast's On Demand didn't have it listed!

Yep. I think you're too late that that. :p Gotta wait until Friday. ;)

Oddly enough, it's still on Comcast where I live. Glad I got to catch it when I did. It's the best Season 4 episode by far.

Viva la Sharkhead and Purple!

Seriously, though.....I think this was one of Bloo's shining moments. The entire sequence between Mac and Bloo once Bloo starts his Spoiler Below has to be one of the best "back-and-forth" moments between Mac and Bloo in the entire series, in my honest opinion. I loved every second of it, and, in a way, wish I was watching it again right now.

By the by, I was about to say I could've watched an entire episode of Bloo just doing the whole Sharkhead and Purple schtick, but I really just did so that would kinda be repetitive.

*dies from bad news*

I'm getting them in December. ...aaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

But I'm getting Cartoon Carnival, some CN Special thingy and the host is... Bloo!
But America must have already got that cuz it's just impossible that Belgium has something America doesn't. (French fries and waffles not counting :P)

that was such a sad ep. it wasnt as funny as i thought i would be, but better than the last one.

Well I FINALLY got to see it! Chuck was so adorable, but his real owner was almost creepy! Still, I've known "cat people" like that, for real. I loved the whole bit with "Purple" and "Sharkhead"(poor Sharkhead-I hope they find him)and the interaction between Mac and Bloo, as well as how Madame Foster saves the day...and that family who tried to adopt Chuck reacts when they get the bill from the police, SWAT Team, fire dept., etc., sent to find a "stolen" cat, of all things.

Did anyone other than me get a really big laugh out of Bloo saving Chuck's puked-up hairball? Only someone who's experienced stepping on a fresh one of those, barefooted, in the middle of the night, would appreciate that, LOL!

I know what you mean: midnight encounters with cat upchuckings is not fun.

I finally got to see it as well.

Didn't break any new ground for the show, just another Bloo shenanigan...

Still, it was plenty entertaining. I really enjoyed it.
Purple... Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Fop, he hosted the Cartoon Network event this past summer with Mac in the US of A.

And the screen grabs are already up! Thanks, Cynthia.

Please don't call me Cynthia. :P And I took those back when the episode was on Comcast On Demand.

OK, I've thought long and hard over this, but maybe Purple and Sharkhead are like a superego and id to Bloo (if you don't know what that means, think of all those scenes where somebody has a little angel and a little devil on opposite sides of the characters head, coaxing to do what right/wrong, etc.). Purple is like Bloo's compassionate/cute site and Sharkhead's his mean/nasty/cunning side.

What's also interesting is that Bloo treats them as seperate characters/things, and since he's inprov'ing them both, he's basically talking to himself, even though he thinks they're seperate beings. Maybe it's a byproduct that IF's can't make their own IF's.

I think everyone is thinking WAYYYYYYYY and I stress the WAYYYYYY too much into this. Bloo was being down right stupid and he was so absorbed into his piss poor illusion that he had imaginary friends, he just kept the gag going.

Plus, it would be boring if Bloo just did this by himself and didn't talk to anyone. I seriously doubt Purple or Sharkhead have any psychological identities and will ever appear again. There a joke and I don't think they will become anything more.

I don't think Bloo thinks there real, I think he knows there fake and he's just trying to delude Mac (and maybe himself) into the fact he was doing something nice which was the whole point.

Very good episode. But it seemed kinda rushed to me.

Finally got to see the ep. What everyone said was right: this was an awesome Bloo episode:bloogrin Purple and Sharkhead were awesome. They should get their own spin-off series:P And if Bloo ever cries like a little girl again...I will die from sadness.

For some reason this episode aired at 7:15 last friday, while all the listings had it set for 7:30. Did anyone else notice this?

Monty:-/

YES, I definately noticed it started early, not only at the first showing but on the later one. That's why I was unable to record it. :'(

CN did that so they could have a performance by Chris Brown and other pre-show stuff leading up to Class of 3000.

I *did* record it, but I'm unable to know how to upload it to the computer.:( No offence, but I don't like this episode. Bloo feels unrespective, without any encouragement when he found a trapped imaginary friend and Bloo worned about him.:( Poor guy. He needs more love.

Well, has anyone else noticed Mac's behavior in this? He wasn't all that nice at all.

I noticed that as well, Mac was quite cranky. I'm thinking it might be an after-effect of how Bloo has treated him recently.

The topic creator said that "Frankie doesn't appear much in this one"--but I thought she had a really good supporting role in this episode. I loved how she acted all giddy and proud of her grandma in the kitchen in front of a jealous Bloo. And I can't believe NO ONE has brought up the explicit Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy reference that she makes at the beginning: "ZZ9 plural Z alpha go!"

I just said the exact same thing (more or less) in the Mac thread in the humans section.

I did. I love their H2G2 references.

I thought, originally, that it had to do with pearls, hehe. But that is an awesome reference.

The scene in the kitchen had to have been one of my favorite moments in this episode. I think that it's fairly obvious that Frankie has some kind of admiration for her grandma, but it was nice (and cute) to see her reenact the event in the kitchen.

Well, let's face it. Bloo is so aggressive at times that, to get something through his thick little skull, you have to push it through. And besides, Bloo was stating how he intended to live in a cardboard shack with puppets and animals, believing this somehow proved he was capable of good deeds. I'm not sure how you would explain how stupid that was to someone while sounding nice about it.

And, hey, Mac was fairly amiable at the beginning before, you know, Bloo's insane little idea truly manifested itself before him.

Exactly.

posted it up on youtube for anyone who missed it

Bloo's the Boss

Thank you! :bloogrin

I saw that episode on Youtube, I thought it was hilarious; especially when Bloo stole the Foster's sign and put his name on it!8D

My most Favorite parts are the ones with Purple and Sharkhead.8D

Funny that this thread happened to be revived just now, since something about this episode had recently occurred to me - well, okay, not recently, it actually crossed my mind a long while back, but I just never got round to posting about it here and then, I don't know, it kind of slipped my mind for a bit. Anyway...

Did anyone else think it slightly strange that the name Bloo had chosen for his new feline friend - Chuck - just happened to be the same name that his owner had given him? And yes, it is apparently a coincidence, since Chuck wasn't wearing a collar or tags or anything like that which could have indicated his moniker to Bloo. His owner didn't correct the gang as to his real name, and she always referred to him as Chuck herself, so we can only really assume that, unless Chuck's owner is even further out of it than she seems, they both came up with the name independently. Stranger things have happened, I suppose.

Actually, that thing stroke me just after watching the episode for the first time. To be honest, in my opinion this is one of the bottom episodes. It has a few silly things, plus Frankie screaming ,,ZZ9 Plural Z Alpha", but just not so entertaining.

Well where do I start? Bloo's relationship with Chuck was adorable, and Purple and Sharkhead are so awesome they should have their own sitcom. This is one of my favorite episodes, hands down.
