She sorta reminds me of Angelica from Rugrats. I think there was an episode where Angelica orderd the babies to make lemonade. That part was funn though, Ed scared of a little boy,girl or friend (Cheese in praticular) is always funny.

FINALLY got to see the ep, as I missed the first showing (and I'm on PST).

There was a weird glitch in the third segment where a sound byte from WWW was played over the soundtrack!

Messed up my recording so I'll have to tape the ep again later (I still have not gotten BtB).

Anyways. So my new computer is all set up for video capture, so I got the ep not only on tape but also on my old computer *and* the new one. I'm making a movie file with the ep on the new computer now, to upload. I'm going to try Megaupload this time, I hope that's okay. But remember that besides the weird WWW thing, that the beginnings of segments 2 and 3 are clipped off. It seems that you have to start recording several seconds *before* where you actually want to start recording.

Anyways. It's watchable.

And yes, I will work on the screencaps asap.

Oh. How did I feel about the ep.

Yes the song routine reminded me of the burlesque house episode of the Simpsons. And when Bloo broke into song at the end, that reminded me of the ep of Rocko's Modern Life where there was a (great) song routine about recycling. I dunno, it just remined me of that one. I thought the whole selling IFs into slavery was a great sinister plot (though you can bet if the villain IF was a parody of any non-Caucasion in history who lobbied for anti-slavery rights...um, the episode never would have been greenlighted).

I saw the red car but I didn't assume he was a reference to Lightning. I'll check that again when I do the screencaps.

I was mildly amused; They could have done better. There was a cleverness in it, but the magic that's supposed to bring it out was not there. Interesting - but not a favorite

It's not bad, but it's just so cute that Wilt's a flagpole!

So I gave it a "B".

Nathander · 11-11-2006, 06:49 AM

With the new poll, I gave it an A. I thought that, on a whole, it was a well scripted episode, the characters were well used, Madam Foster finally got some kind of character development, the villains were entertaining, and we got to see Herriman go into a boxing stance (or at least, an old-timey "put up your dukes and fight me" stance). I can't really complain of lack of Mac and Frankie because, well, there wasn't any, though they didn't have the role I expected.

Out of curiousity, did Moose remind anyone else of Big Billy from the Ganggreen Gang, mainly by his voice and the way he talked?

i already have the ep (as well as all the others) if you need it

Your'e right Bloo singing sort of reminded me of "R-E-C-Y-C-L-E"!
Yeah, if the villian was based on a black guyor hispanic guy,etc.. it would of never happened. I personally like the guy being based on Lincon, why not Nixon?

I also didn't get the Lightning parody at first, mainly because he had jets & Mcqueen dosen't. I also liked the new cast of BG friends.
I noticed something,if you watch the episode on alarge screen TV Wilt isn'tr halfcut outdyring the song.

I liked this episode. I don't know...the premise just really interested me. And when I saw the clothes disappear off that girl on that pen I thought, "Okay...did I just see what I thought I saw?

Eeeehhhhhhh. *wobbles hand in that 'so so' kind of way*

I'm starting to think people should watch this episode again before making a final judgement. It was very well-plotted, and it had a LOT of details that I didn't catch until my second viewing, which greatly enhanced my enjoyment of it. And it took some MAJOR RISKS, with both Madame Foster considering her priorities in life, and I'm still a little surprised they actually allowed the dissolving effect on the model pen.

I realize I'm kinda biased as I had especially been looking forward to this episode for weeks... but I'm starting to become disheartened by some of the reactions. I think it deserves more than just some dismissive "eeeeeh" post that doesn't give any real reasons as to why you feel that way.
