Episode Discussion: The Big Cheese 7/8/06 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

McGee's Jabberwock · 08-21-2006, 09:19 AM

Does anyone else think this episode was created out of peer pressure? Cheese is so popular they had to make another episode with him! OK, not everyone likes Cheese, many find him annoying, and here he just felt like a plot device. Not to mention the plot of this episode felt really forced; I would think Herriman would be a bit smarter than to put in a random code which he couldn't remember when he installed a complex security system. And Wilt, poor, poor Wilt

. He's becoming the Meg Griffin of Foster's now.

And seriously. There are other characters on the show besides Cheese. Better developed ones. Less annoying ones. Stop worshipping Cheese.

Agreed. I'm no big fan of Cheese. I like him, and he's funny, but yeah, they need to be careful not to overuse him.

yes, as much as i love him, he can get old very quickly. I liked this episode, despite the mistreatment of poor poor wilt.

I've seen it on youtube, and I say... AWFUL. It made me cry in a negative way...

I enjoyed this episode. Goo was funny, Cheese was funny imitating her. I like the unspoken gags, like Wilt constantly being sent out for more things from the store. The songs were cute, and the dancing. Sure the shrieking got a little annoying, but overall I don't have any problems with this episode.

The episode was pretty funny, and I didn't find it at all unusual that Mr. Herriman would really and truely RANDOMLY type in the code, as in not LOOKING at the numbers or writing them down. It is, after all, a huge understatement to say that he is "technologically-challenged"! It has nothing to do with being "smart", but more to do with what you're accustomed to. Herriman is a product of the older, simpler times, before computers and things like that. He actually thought that a computer file in "World Wide Wabbit" would be in a file CABINET, after all.

I found it funny, though, that even Wilt is getting tired of Cheese, and how freaked out he was by Cheese holding his hand.

Believe it or not, I actually found this episode a lot funnier the second time I watched it, probably because this time around I just turned off the critical portion of my brain and accepted this episode for what it was meant to be "sheer randomness". Well that and I wasn't nursing a severely cut finger unlike the first time I was watching it.

And right after it aired they played this episode NON-STOP at least 3 times a day for at least 3 days.

I loved the episode. It didn't require much thinking (I was sick when I saw it for the first time) and it reminded me of when my Dad put a code into the TV to watch more mature channels and he forgot the code but I was able to get it right because I watched him put the code in.

Spoiler Below

Okay I FINALLY saw this episode today, on YouTube. (I know, I am so behind. lol)
I have to say I found it quite amusing...the first scene to tickle my fancy was Mr. Herriman's little tail wagging in his anxiety over getting his office sparkling clean. (When Frankie walked in.) That was CUTE. I love bunny tails. ^^ (Okay I'm wierd, I know.) And of course the whole Wilt scene where he tries to get Cheese off of him....LMAO, that was the BEST EVER. I can't stop thinking how amazingly adorable Wilt is when he's nervous. ::giggle:: He's got such a great voice, too. AHEM...so getting back on track...Bloo's scene where he sings that song to Cheese had me laughing...he sings quite well! XD I love that smirking grin on his face too. (Of course we all love the Blooregard's expressions, that's a given.) But I think I nearly squirted soda out of my nose (and believe me that's painful) when Frankie played her game and told Cheese to sing the security code song, and his eyes got all big and googly. LOL He's kind of cute in his weird, annoying way. XD The song at the end with Goo was pretty funny, too. ^^ I liked the ep all in all and didn't find too much wrong with it, like it's been said, just some crazy randomness.
