New Ep 5/8: "Bloo Tube"

[Frankie_4_Prez]

Don't know, what I do know, is that he got 20,001,551 painful "hits" to his overinflated ego.

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!

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.

Agreed ORD, I'm sad to see it end, but the one thing to know is that it's ending on a high note. Instead of saying goodbye to the show though, we should really be saying thank you to everyone that worked on the show for creating something of fine quality.

Man, season six is just getting better and better! And it's only had four episodes so far!

I loved all the YouTube/popular YouTube video references! They were very awesome!

But I really feel sorry for Bloo in the end, having every single bone in his body broken, thus preventing him from going to Monsoon Lagoon. But it's a little ironic, since he's literally spineless. XD

Plus, I really liked Eduardo's swim trunks towards the end of the episode (look closely when all the friends are in line to board the bus, and you'll spot Ed in green swim trunks with yellow hawaiian flowers on them.); he looked really adorable in those.

All in all, I give this episode an A (9.5/10), although they could have added a few more YouTube video references. But, it's still an awesome episode, especially with references to my favorite video site.

I watched this again last night and caught a few more things... After Bloo ruins the OK GO parody, one of the Pizza Party members (the octupus I think) says "OK, go... again" Hilarious double meaning.

Also noticed that Frankie was in one of the videos, where she and another IF tickles an elephant IF to make him spurt soda everywhere (Mentos + Diet coke parody maybe?)

Finally, what exactly is this Dramatic prairie dog reference people talk about? I don't remember seeing anything like a prairie dog friend.

I thought those were cookies and milk. Hmm, I could be wrong.

I'd like to know what that is also. I don't remember seeing anything like that.

Thanks a lot, I wanted to know what the corresponding Foster's prairie dog was.

Mac is most likely right about the elephant eating cookies and milk. It just looked like those soda fountains to me.
