Here are my top 2:

1) After the Citrus villian destroys Earth, Craig is seen hauling a peice of Canada back. He quips: "Thankfully I caught this landmass or else Quebec would have seperated from Canada!"

2) When the brothers realize they may never eat beef again, Rip says "Cows were put on this Earth so we could eat their meat!"

The quotes aren't exact, but you get the idea. Anyone else have any favorite quotes?

I just liked the scene when Craig read some kid's letter about how he got a sticker in his cereal instead of a prize. And then when Rip goes and confronts the man who swallowed a whistle and sued the cereal company! That was the funniest thing i've seen in cartoons in awhile.:D

The citrus episode hasn't aired in the states yet... but it sounds like that Quebec comment is incredibly sharp!

Yeah, so far my favorite ep has to be the missing beef/Ovulator episode. When three of the Ripping Friends start weakening: Oh no! We've gone 15 minutes without beef!

Er, apparently both of them. :)

They re-ran the Indigestible Wad episode today... I didn't mind since I missed it the first time around.

--the cereal box prize bit (very topical) and the Ovulator episode. That worked on many levels, my favorite being when Crag realized Slab was different from the others because of his ability to hold meat proteins in his body longer, saying something to the effect of "at first glance you might not see much difference between Slab and me...." hope I don't have to explain why that struck me as hilarious.... :rolleyes:
Also--and I can't say if John K. intended it to be so, but the line "The jig is up!" uttered by Slab as he leaps into the air prepared to body-slam Ovulator come off as a tad...well....ethnic in that context....

This is a response to Dr. Belches Spoiler...

from the first episode, I could tell that Slab was totally an "ethnic" character. He seems like a mix of every black character that has ever existed on TV, simply sputtering out catch fraises made popular by Mr. T.

The Ripping Friends is full of hidden(and..not the least bit hidden) Jokes, that really speak to use about modern society. Ripping Friends..I salute you!

Teletoon is getting the season I think in 13 continuous weeks, one after another. They don't usually stretch out seasons. That's probably why we've seen some that FOX hasn't aired. Then again FOX KIDS will only be showing 12 of the 13 first season eps.

Uh? Why are they holding back an episode?

Becuase it features the Friends taking on a terrorist-like leader of an opposing country. It's already aired on Teletoon. (And was good!)

It's a shame, too. Good ep. FOX has moved the series to an ungodly time. The show is much suited later on in the line-up. Having it that early just makes it really out place.

I noticed that, too. It reminds me of that ludicrous KWB "Big Kids Go First" idea that went over like a lead balloon. We older folk just like our sleep too much...

I've also noticed that Fox Kids' weekday stuff starts at two and ends and four. What the?! Most kids don't even get out of school still three! I'd love to know the reasoning behind that one...

Why did FOX bump up their programming an hour? Some kids don't even make it home until 3:30 or 4, completely missing the weekday block! Another bad move, aside from the FRIENDS new terrible timeslot. No wonder KWB is whipping this network in ratings.

The quotes aren't exact, but you get the idea. Anyone else have any favorite quotes?

My favorite quote was one from "The Indigestible Wad" where the dentist says, "This new X-ray machine is powered by cosmic rays. This is the first time I've used it. Probably nothing will go wrong, so don't worry." because when the dentist says it, there's a weird echo (also I could tell that John K. did his voice because he sounds like Ren).
