C&C - Robot Chicken - "Losin' The Wobble" [11/4]

[Neo Ultra Mike]

There's another new Robot Chicken this Sunday at 11:30PM and on the AS Fix right now. It's Episode 12 of the Season, "Losin' The Wobble".

SYNOPSIS:

Spoiler:

"The Kool-Aid man quenches some inconvienant thirsts. The mystery of why Encolypedia's parents haven't been getting along. What new realm will D&D Vengar conquer next? Wonder Woman reveals her revealing arch enemy. Celebrites are drunk, but that's not why they go to rehab: they go to conquer the world! (Or something)."

REVIEW:

Spoiler:

Actually this was a better episode then last week. It wasn't terribly funny but at least it had a bit more thought put into the various jokes of the ep. The three Kool Aid man scenes were decent (I liked the third the most of him just bringing out a random wall to jump in). The Encolypedia Brown seemed just like anotehr "trouble marriged one". Maybe if they had another shot of Encolypedia Brown realizing what he did and trying to fix it it would of been funny but it didn't really work for me for what it was. Bizzarro Wonder Woman seemed like another boob job joke though I did like the knocks of reverse flash and Bizarro Superman. The celebrities are alien segment worked best though, since after all they've done more Mel Gibson/Britney/Paris and Lindsay jokes felt approriate (though some feel terribly out of date. Like Britney shaving and Mel's jewish slurs. Then again RC still takes months to animate so what can you do when they try and get topical). The short gags were actually better this time around: Potato Head shaving, The beating up *******s rule (I espically liked the Heroes/Lost refrence, though they still need an actual Heroes or Lost sketch in the show) the Michael Jackson humping the Big Boy sign (only notable for Michael's reaction at the end), Hansel and Gretel killing and eating a kindly witch (with dumbass Gretel to boot), and Ray Charles in charge. I'm still hoping for better this season but decent for what it was.

Enjoy Everyone!

Compared to a lot of episodes this season, this one was really funny. On that note, if you've seen previous episodes of this season... well, there's not that much to compare it to. :/ Still a fairly good episode on it's own right, though.

B+

If more episodes were like this, I'd be happy with Robot Chicken.
No cheap 80s references, solid jokes that aren't always gross. Bravo.

I liked the Kool-aid man recurring joke, especially the Kool-aid Zombie
Encyclopedia Brown was pretty funny too.

EDIT: Also Potato-Head "shaving"

[Conan-san]

Oh yeah!

That's all I got.

[Dudley]

Better than some episodes this season. My favorite part was Encyclopedia Brown's story, and Hansel and Gretel.

Still pretty bad

You know, I hope the Robot Chicken writters are apart of the WGA strike. Then maybe we can get a quality RC ep sometime in the next 3 years..

[Kitschensyngk]

Kool-Aid Man in Space: Good

Encyclopedia Brown's Parents: Do I really want to turn to page 87?

The A**hole Police: Okay

Zombie Kool-Aid Man: Good

Michael Jackson Statue: Urrrh.

Page 87: Ooookay.

Hansel and Gretel: What a twist!

Negative Wonder Woman: Hmm.

Kool-Aid Man in the Forest: ...two out of three ain't bad.

Why Celebs REALLY Go To Rehab: Guess we've nothing to worry about.

Light on the sex jokes, no farts and a lack of references to cartoons from the 1980s. Comforting change of pace this week.

This episode did have very few laughs. Kool-Aid man has been overused here and Family guy..

[v1cious]

my god... that was actually funny. in fact, it may have been one of the besty Robot Chicken episodes so far.

they're going to hell for the Ray Charles joke.

[danreyes1]

Finally starting to look good. The Mr. Kool-aid running gag was better than the 300 one last week, in any case.

[Deadman]

that was a good one. had some good skits.

[Zeonic Freak]

My faves were the Reoccurring Kool aid skits and the Micheal Jackson statue.

Mmm, Mel Gibson an alien? Never knew...

He wasn't, they felt like making a joke that was one & 1/2 to two years old.

[J-man]

I'll agree that this episode was one of the best made thus far this season. The Micheal Jackson and Mel Gibson jokes were way too old though. Either way, still a good episode. Kudos to RC.
