Ep 10/12 - "Nightmare On Wilson Way"

[Lynnie]

Ok, after allll that trouble I went through to get ahold of 3D glasses, I'm not ashamed! But yeah, the effects weren't that spectacular so those without glasses, don't worry too much about it. The effects I noticed most was the house when the ep first started, the can Bloo kept holding out wanting people to open it, Herrimans "zombie" hand reaching through the crack in the bedroom door, and Ed while he was running to get away from the zombies. There were other scenes I could tell were suppose to be in 3D, but it didn't look that way. So as pretty much everyone else has stated, it was no biggie. And I'm sure the reruns will be aired in normal 2D, so we won't see those weird red and blue lines.

That being said, I loved this episode! Yay, Wilt, Ed and Coco are all back! I loved Wilt's prank with the arm. I never really saw him as a prankster before, but he's a responsible one. I don't understand why the first group of kids didn't take to the prank, but the last group ran off screaming. Maybe something will come to me the next time I watch it. Or maybe it was Wilt's fake scream that cued the kids that it was just a joke? I dunno... I also loved the flashbacks to "last year", with the can and the lamp, and then Wilt, Frankie and then Madame F. out on the porch. And somehow they all remembered that and knew that Bloo was behind the whole thing, lol! And the grande finale, Mac rampaging the house with Bloo riding on his back, on another sugar high. And he lost his shirt again while chasing those poor kids for their candy. I L-O-V-E-D Frankie's costume as Blossom! She was so cute with long blonde hair and a big bow, a whole new look for her! One thing I think was taken a tad overboard was when Bloo and Ed were in the closet and they were each screaming while Bloo shined the light on his face and then Eds, and back on himself. It was funny up until maybe the fourth scream, but quickly lost something after that.

jWell, and then there was the fact that for once CN shows the end credits but it's smashed down in the lower right-hand corner, and they're playing the Goosbumps theme instead of the dialog going on in the credit. This is another one I'll be keeping my eyes on On Demand, so hopefully I can record it again without those darn splash ads and the tiny squashed credit scene.

But overall, I absolutely loved this episode, and see it as a better "Haloween" eppie than "Bloooo" was. But then, this actually took place on Haloween, so yeah, that would make sense, wouldn't it?

I was neither disappointed, or surprised, that Eduardo chose not to participate in Halloween. I figured that this would be a traumatic time of year for him. I AM surprised that they actually got him to go along with the plot, or that he wasn't afraid of the other house members in their zombie get-up, even after having been told that these were just costumes and make-up, or that he was able to so convincingly fake being terrified when he was planning to go along with it from the get-go. I guess that Wilt's not the only one with some real acting talent around the house! Also, I suppose that if Ed had acting nonchalant or even excited about Halloween, Bloo would have gotten suspicious, since that would not be "in-character" for Eduardo at all.

The 3D sucked? I'm not surprised. Cheap gimmick.

Great episode. Sugar Mac rocked my socks, and I was on the floor the whole time he was in the act. I saw the "it's a trick" thing from a mile away...but good nonetheless.

I kinda wished CN showed us the credit gag WITH SOUND. Gosh.

3.5 out of 5 stars.

Maybe Eduardo forgot about the plan until he was captured. I wouldn't put it past him. Or perhaps they only told him after he was captured.

Welp, I just saw the end credits in their prime. Here's what they said, for those who didn't see it.

Mac: *wakes up* Ow, my head...what happened? *looks at fake arm* OH NO! What did I do?!

Wilt: *walked on screen* Hey Mac! Sorry, I've been looking for this everywhere! *takes fake arm, puts it back on*

Mac: *faints*

[AerostarMonk]

Just noticed that Wilt's arm had a black hand with five fingers. Weird.

It has now been confirmed that the re-runs are in 2D.

Thanks Ant for giving us what exactly was said in the credits. Even if we can't actually hear it, knowing what both Wilt's and Mac's voices sound like, we can now easily "hear" them saying those lines now next time we watch if Time-Warner does the same thing to it (which will be very likely, unfortunately).

I loved this episode! Let me get one thing off my chest first.
FRANKIE LOOKED SO CUTE IN HER POWERPUFF GIRLS COSTUME!!
Now then, this episode was highly amusing. I loved the plot, I loved Bloo freaking out, and something amusing about sugar rush Mac stomping through the zombies with Bloo singing his "Zombie fighters" thing was hilarious. Was anyone else beyond mad when the punchline in the credits got dubbed over with a stupid ad for Goosebumps (which a CARTOON network shouldn't be running anyway just saying )

Woo! What an episode! (Thanks a million, Sparky.)
I personally liked this ep more than Bloooo as a Halloween special. Even though the ending was just too predictable, that was also the case with Bloooo.
The next thing I'm gonna say will probably sound really stupid, but I was actually a bit creeped out at some parts with Bloo, Ed and Coco just walking in the halls. But it was an enjoyable episode, and that said, I'll name my favourite parts for no reason.
-The whole scene with Bloo trying to get out into the yard with Mr. Herriman's body. There was just something so disturbing and dark about it that made me laugh my head off.
-The way everyone was being "killed off" one by one. Sorta reminded me of a lot of horror movies, like numerous zombie movies and Alien.
-The costumes. (Coco is a crazy chicken!)

That pretty much sums up my review.

No need to shout it, but yeah, absolutely adorable.

The only people who enjoyed that were CN execs and the sponsors, who were all no doubt delighted to squeeze out a little more time for commercials. It's a disgusting practice and it needs to stop.
