New Ep 5/8: "Bloo Tube"

[One Radical Dude]

This is definitely one I consider among many favorites in the series.

I really loved Ed in the Exploring Lauren outfit. That was just sweet. Once again, Bloo gets the short end of the stick, but in a more amusing and entertaining way. It did give him 20,000,000 hits off ViewTube. However, it did cost him the trip to go to that water park. Hee hee. Man, it's definitely an episode to view again. Great stuff. I give it an A.

Oh, and that one bit with Jackie Khones. Hee hee hee.

Just for the record, everyone, spoiler tags aren't really necessary once an episode has aired. You can use them if you want to, of course, but they aren't required.

Actually, I'd prefer it if people waited until an ep has aired in all time zones before stopping with the spoiler tags. I'm on PST, if I had come to this thread before a few minutes ago I sure would have appreciated the spoiler tags (although I try to stay out of ep discussion threads once an ep has begun to air on the east coast). So people were fine to use the tags.

So NOW it has aired all over the US, so spoiler tags are no longer necessary.

Awww, I loved it, just loved it! Who ever thought a couple of matchbox cars crashing through a window could explode into an amazing mushroom cloud? The game was original too, it looked fun. And I just loved-

Wilt's laugh while watching the peanut butter videos, such a big smile!

Coco laying eggs grossing everyone out, ewww!!

Wilt- "Dunn dunn dunnnnn!"

Bloo- "I will watch videos of the water park as long as I want, and you can't stop me!" *Wilt casually picks him up, places him outside the door, and then closes it*
"Ok, you stopped me."

We see Madame F for the first time in a while. And her stunt not working was funny. I did fear a bit for Mac there for a second, though.

Yay, little Gary playing the piano, but why is he so sad? Poor little Gary, I'd adopt him and cheer the little guy up if I could.

I like the Jackie video, too, Bloo appearing out of nowhere in the center of the screen.

The tap dancing rabbit friend disappears (while an unseen friend says "Hey, where'd she go?") and then she's pulled out of a hat in a later video, did anyone else catch that?

Bloo's water slide actually looked fun, and I'm surprised he didn't destroy or flood the house further then he did. Too bad he ended up in a full body cast. Poor, poor Bloo. We must have a pity party for Bloo now.

We see Mac wearing something other than his khakis and red and white shirts. I liked his swim trunks, the red/yellow flames on them I think show more of his playful/adventurous personality rather than shy/quiet/preppy side.

So yes, I absolutely loved this eppie too, and think it's easily one of the best. Yay!

I LOVED THIS EPISODE!!! One of the best I've ever seen. I especially loved the OK GO parody. I was hoping it would be in there.

My one question though is how could Bloo need the full body cast, I didn't think he had any bones. For example in the "House of Bloo's" its established that he has no spine. So I'm a bit confused on that but boy was that a great episode!!!

[Ridureyu]

I want that board game.


Oh, and I'm finally watching the episode.

The rabbit thing was really funny; at first, her disappearing act didn't really make sense, and it wasn't until she turns up in the magician's hat, apparently unexpected, that the joke comes together, with her saying, "Pulling a rabbit out of a hat...now THAT'S original(heavy sarcasm on her part)!"

Coco's egg-laying/juggling act was a trip, though not half as funny as the looks on the faces of her companions, especially Wilt and Mac, lol!
Wilt: "Can we go back to watching Ed in a wig?" Given how Wilt generally acts when Eduardo indulges his little girlie side(as per "Squeakerboxx"), you KNOW that the egg-laying HAD to be really gross!

And of course, there's still that basketball routine that sticks out in my mind, not only because of its awesomeness, but because of how Mac subtly manipulated Wilt's deeply-competitive nature to obtain that footage-
Mac: "What, are you scared that you might MISS and break something?"
Wilt: "OK, you ARE ON!" Wilt just can't seem to resist a challenge, can he?

In a way, this episode leaves me with mixed feelings. It is great that show is going out with a bang, but seeing this one makes it all the sadder that it's going out, period. It's a big improvement over much of Season Five, and it really seems that the creative team behind the series has hit its best groove yet, which makes it seem that there is still so much untapped potential for this show and these characters, that we won't get to see. I know that Craig said that they were having a tough time coming up with original material for this current season, but that sure doesn't show in what I've seen so far, and if anything, has resulted in some of the best stuff yet.

So it seems that it's true... There were no ViewTube videos featuring Frankie. *Sigh*

Still a great episode, though; the CMcC + Rob Renzetti combo looks like it'll be a real winner with their upcoming Cartoonstitute project.

Yes, it doesn't show that the crew was having a harder time coming up with new material. I know everyone doesn't want to see the show ending (same with me). At the end, though, I believe it is better to end at this season than to go on and come up with mediocre episodes. It's great that they're still kicking butt with great shows.
