When Joan of Arc learns that the boys' basketball team doesn't allow girls or animals to play, she disguises herself as the male "John Dark," and becomes the star player. Cleopatra falls for John, which makes team-captain Abe Lincoln jealous. And JFK can't figure out why he has funny feelings for a guy… even one as feminine as John. Meanwhile, Gandhi steals the mascot of Clone High's rival school, Genetically Engineered Superhuman High. (ESPN's Chris Berman and Dan Patrick guest star as themselves.


Let the reviewing begin!

Overall, this was a big step up from last week. So many great moments:

* - "John" explaining whom "he" was originally cloned from ("...then he saw the Statue of Liberty and he realized he was on Earth all along.")

* - Mr. Butlertron consoling Joan ("Your friend should listen to her heart. I wasn't programmed to wink, but if I was, I would've winked when I said 'your friend'.")

* - JFK getting confused

* - Gandhi and the mascot from GESH ("This isn't a kid in a costume. It's a living creature. Aaaaaah! He was genetically engineered with a zipper. Aaaaaah! Who's driving the van? Aaaaaah!")

* - Chris Berman: "This is the biggest abomination I've ever seen, and I was in that movie where Whoopi Goldberg coached the Knicks." (That was Eddie, BTW.)

A good deal of these are misquoted and I'm sorry.

The only gripe I had was that Abe was at the height of his drippiness. Otherwise, great episode.

One of the best ones that I have seen, it had a great plot and side stories. The quotes are also great:

JFK: "Pass the ball to me more, I'm open for anything"

Geshy: *bites head off of a deer* "Candy!"

Colonel Principal: "If you recall I won your first born child"
Scudworth: "You leave Brian out of it"
*a while later*
Scudworth: "By the way, how is Brian?"
Colonel Principal: *takes a bite* "Deeelicious"

I loved everyhting about this show, JFK thinking that he's "changing channels", Geshy eating everything, and of course that lockeroom scene when Joans eye's got big when she saw Ganghis and you here that dragging noise. There's just too many things to list for this episode, a definate A+++ from me.

Man,This episode was Hi-larious. I don't know why, but I laughed Extremely out loud when Abe attempted to push John Dark and fell backwards. There was some funny parts like:
"Everybody with a fake mustache, leave!" and you see one of the marxs brothers(I think), The conversation between Abe and John about leaving Cleo for Joan, and the Geshy and Ghandi moment. Though that geshy think freaked me out when it started eating the animals...

You're right. It was one of the Marx brothers...a well known one I might add. It was Groucho

I was happy to see Teen Wolf celebrating the basketball win. Nice shout out.

It would appear that this episode is set to air again today at 5 PM, so those who missed it (myself included) can check it out. Don't take my word for it though, because this is Viacom and they change things faster than you can say Zim.

Well, it didn't air. :rolleyes: I'm not sure I truly expected it to be on anyway. The biggest problem I have with it not airing is the fact that MTV said "Clone High is coming up next at 5" and then it was one of their lame shows. ARGH!! I want to see the new episode! :mad:

There's an alternate ending to this episode in the back stage section of http://www.clonehighusa.com/ the official website of the creators.

I love the unused audio clip of Mr. B from the scantron episode so much, it's in my sig.
