Unfortunately, that's exactly what will happen. It happened on the old Forum, as I'm sure some of us remember. Now may I suggest we move on and drop the subject? Just because the sickos will be writing and drawing filth doesn't mean we have to focus on it here. What about the rest of the episode? Anybody?

Ok, I can go now. I liked this episode ok. The fact that many have mentioned already about there being only small cameos of Ed, an even smaller one of Wilt, and no Coco whatsoever peeved me a bit. As much as I like Mac and Bloo, and their being my favorite characters in the show doesn't mean I don't miss the others. I like the friendships between them all. I'm starting to wonder if there's a trend starting here.

I liked those show tunes, I recognized most of them, although could pinpoint only three movies that their from. I'm suddenly craving seeing some of the classic musicals from the '40s and '50s again. It takes an extremely dedicated fan to stay up all night and "hold it" until you're about to lose your mind. Poor Bloo.

At least it ended well for him, or so he thought. I found it hilarious that he thought he'd be famous too that Rod Tango himself threw him out of the premier. While he was being dragged away and everything.

Ah yes, Mac and Frankie. I found it cute as anything, Mac with his typical boyhood crush, and Frankie seemingly oblivious, but still treating him like a good friend, so it's still a win/win for both. He was just too cute showing up wearing a suit and with a box of chocolates. She didn't even seem to notice the chocolates. If the situation was different I'm sure Frankie would have mentioned anything about the chocolates and admitted herself how cute Mac was for bringing them.

And last note, I hate splash ads. Just hate them. They're bigger and more obnoxious now with FD. I'll be keeping my eye on "On Demand" so I can record the episode without those darn obnoxious idiotic splash ads.

Kay, so.....

The episode was pretty so-so for me, but not a total dissappointment. The fact that it kept the plot going in so many directions (they're all directions that most shows would and have spent a whole episode on) was good. The showtunes were quite entertaining. Khone's whole bit was the only part to really crack me up, but boy did it! I think he's shaping up to be an awesome support character.

Zeitgheist · 10-09-2007, 01:50 AM

AAA LIIIIIIITTLEEEEEE DAAAAAAATE

I could not stop laughing at Mac's little relaps for crushing on Frankie XD I was laughing the whole way through, though. Especially when Khones said "Trude dat.", just... ingenius. I loved the episode

Match Stick · 10-12-2007, 08:37 AM

i just watched the episode, and honestly i dont like it too much ...which alarmingly didnt surprise me. When i first heard the plot , i think it's sort of predictable that Bloo will do sth outragous to get the tickets, and this episode strongly reminds me of 'Bloo's Brothers'

i think Frankie deserved to go to the movies, and mr herriman showing up telling her she can't cause APPARNEntly she hasnt taken the night off is just mean. I like mr herriman and all, but he and madame foster 's character is just too far-fetched in this episode. Madame Foster didnt strike me as the kind (old) lady she is in 'House of Bloos' and 'a lost claus'...i think the show producers believed we saw enough of madame foster's sweetness and decided to let us see her through a diffent angle, her craziness, which unfortunately i dont like..

mac's crush on frankie is... cute, and i think it's natural that frankie didnt notice, i mean, if you dont have a crush on someone, you probably wouldn't notice these small gestures of them which suggests a crush... and mac crushing on frankie is rly nice... and i think it's perfectly normal that he would hv a crush...frankie is about the only girl mac sees or know so well...and who wouldn't hv a crush at least once in their childhoods?

i luv

in this episode..!!!

I forgot to mention earlier... I liked Jackie in this eppie, too. Lately he seems to be somewhat of a jerk (in "Cheese a Go-Go", and "Say it isn't Sew"), so I'm not feeling the "love" right now. But he was pretty cool in this. I even admired him a bit for calling Rod Tango to alert him his premier is about to be crashed. I wonder what exactly he did to save Rod's life, though?.....

And another thing I forgot to mention earlier, did anyone else feel a little creeped out at Madame F.'s makeup, and a dress that, I'm sorry, looked like a costume to me? I found it amusing, but when she first showed up with that makeup on, I shrieked.

I also noticed Frankie's eyes were drawn a little darker. I do believe depicting eyeliner. Her "makeup" was much nicer to look at though.

Medikor · 10-18-2007, 06:59 PM

I just watched this episode and laughed the whole way through! Bloo is such a riot when he's so hyper. I also loved seeing Frankie have a larger role too. It was really nice to see Frankie acting like the big sister that Mac never had. The songs were great too.

koosie · 11-04-2007, 03:12 PM

Well I've only seen it once and remember laughing a lot at it. It's a good example of intersting the pacing is on this show. Some toons are just a flat out sprint and leave me kind of dazed but Fosters is sometimes wonderfully slow like the first few scenes in this one while later scenes were totally frantic. You have to admire that.

I must admit a lot of the references in this one seem to go above my ahead. I mean who is Rod Tango for instance? He reminded me a bit of that guy with the funny voice in Pitch Black who's name escapes me.

Wow what's with Khones? He's the daddy suddenly. Felt sorry for poor old Mac in this episode, struck with the cruelest affliction of all again and Madame Foster is just completely nuts.

Ub3rD4n · 11-04-2007, 04:21 PM

Rod Tango is Dwayne Johnson. And Vin Deisel. And Jean Claude Van Damme. He's a farily generic action hero, who Bloo happens to think is cool.
