removed. . . sorry

[DianaGohan]

Yeah, but that belongs in the Card thread, not the anything else thread, just to tell you.

[Behonkiss]

Oh boy. My least favorite Home Movies. Poor Brendan...

Oh, you hurt George's feelings :( I don't think it's the worst episode ("Broken Dreams ((aka "That Smarts")) I felt was a lot worse) but it is one of the weaker ones of Season Two. Six words: Mr Freckles and his stupid crap. The drug subplot was hilarious though.

Sorry. Got confused.

[The Landstander]

I never understood why so many people don't like this episode (well, actually I can only think of 2, but still). Brendon is caught in a great situation between Jason and Melissa, the Paula plotline is one of the best she's ever gotten, and McGuirk...well, Mr. Freckles does suck, but beyond that, it's a fine episode, I say! :shrug:

[DianaGohan]

If anyone cares, this week's Space Ghost was the least edited episode yet. Only a word or two in the beginning and the usual credit cut at the end were not shown. Unlike "Zorak" last week, which suffered entire MINUTES of cuts.

[pabcool]

One word to describe last night's Home Movies:

Meh.

Though yes, the drug subplot and Jason at 4:00 AM were good for a laugh.

I'm going with a C+ for "Business and Pleasure"

[PowerZord]

I was only able to see Harvey birdman. it was decent. Altough there have been better eps

[Masamune2052]

That's one of the greatest scenes from Inu Yasha that's been shown on AS so far.

Inu Yasha and Miroku, completely innocent and unaware of their surroundings, rush to help the damsals in distress only to be pummeled violently by their two vicious female companions. Poor guys, although as Miroku said: it was certainly a sight to behold. ^^v

[pabcool]

Futurama:

What can I say, I LOVED this episode. The Star Trek jokes were some of the funniest parodies I've seen on FOX, beating the crap out of Simpsons. Just the fact that Star Trek became a religion in the future is amusing as hell.

I'm going with a solid A this time.




InuYasha: (First Viewing)

I can see why the people at those irritatingly annoying message boards love this show: It's a show designed for fangirls, pure and simple. It's not a bad show, but it's a fangirl-ish show. Kohaku being possesed was interesting, though sometimes I felt like yelling "Sango, just kill that idiot!" Also, the bath scene was very amusing. "that was a beautiful thing we just saw" was a great line. (Props to Miroku's VA) While it felt like a transition, obviously, I think, for what it is, the episode is very good. And the same can be said for InuYasha itself.

I'm giving THIS one a B+. (The bath scene helped the score a bit)

Will I come back: Yep. I liked the dub, and enjoyed the time travel aspect. The relationships are what really make me want to come back, though. Without the chemistry of the characters, this would easily make my least favorite list. Since the chemistry is so great, It's what really makes the show something above average. Oh, well, it is Rumiko Takahashi!

[Jaguar]

YAY! Now pabcool can get hooked on Inuyasha as well.

WEll, "Sango's Suffering and Kohaku's Life" has always been one of my favorite episodes and seeing it for the second time made me like it even more. A-

[The Landstander]

How time flies...in case anyone didn't notice, this is the beginning of Futurama's third run on AS.

If only for 20 episodes, since they're going to pull it off temporary next month, fo they can wait on the final batch of episodes from this past season-even the ones Fox haven't aired yet. :coyote:

CN can't air them until FOX does, but that'll happen soon enough. Just a few weeks until Futurama reappears on FOX with the final 5.

Awesome..and awe-inspiring...

Or something.

[mjsmith]

Boy! Does Farnsworth don't know the difference between space wasps and space bees when he give the chips to the new Planet Express crew, after seeing tonight's re-reairing of Futurama's "Space Pilot 3000" episode!!! We know, since, as we saw on "The Sting", we found out whatever happened to the previous crew. :eek:

[DianaGohan]

Well there's a theory that the Space Wasps invaded the Space Bee's hive and killed the crew, but I noted that continuity glare in my review of the Sting. You know, I'm kind of glad they're giving Futurama the early cut off in a month: The show is great, but I need to time off of it before I go through watching another runthrough.

I missed yesterday's episode of Reign: The Conqueror (I fell asleep :sweat: ) so can someone help me and post a link to a site that gives a summary of that episode or if someone can post a brief summary I would be very thankful. I believe the episode was episode #8--Here shall stand Alexandria.

epguides.com will have the episode guide and summaries for each episode or you can try tvtome.com and search for reign two very good episode summary sites which i use when I miss a episode due to falling asleep

[The Landstander]

I just checked...epguides and TVTome don't have it. To go off-topic a bit, TVTome sucks; they have been known to be disorganized and report false news (at least this was my expierience with the Home Movies TVTome page).

Anyways, I did a quick Google search and found this basic summary:

http://www.tokyopop.com/icons/spacer.gif
Here Shall Stand Alexandria: Upon his arrival in Egypt, Alexander sees an Oracle who orders him to construct a new city for himself, and to call it Alexandria. He has a vision of the city 100 years in the future and sees his own enormous grave. Alexander orders an architect of Dionis, Dinocrates, to construct the new capital.

It's kind of basic, but the best I could find on a quick look.

[The Drizzle]

Well, that depends on the editor(s). The Harvey Birdman page was a mess of false information before I took it over, but it's nice now. The Home Movies page doesn't seem to have many of the guest stars listed on it though. :shrug:

[The Landstander]

Well, alright, not all pages suck (looking at your Birdman guide, looks good), but I have a strong disliking of the Home Movies people. Though their site is pretty up to date, HomeMoviesKrazy reported a Season 1 DVD was in production without any sources to back it up, and Zarius started a site and stole pictures from The Slapstick Barbarian Project (I know Pathetic1, the runner of that site, so that's how I know that). Also, I think they reported that "Coffins and Cradles" was about Josie dying, but I only heard that, so I'm not 100% positive on that. Their info for HM seems pretty good (I've seen better sites, though ;) ), I just don't like how they do things on that specific page.

[DianaGohan]

Well, that depends on the editor(s). The Harvey Birdman page was a mess of false information before I took it over, but it's nice now. The Home Movies page doesn't seem to have many of the guest stars listed on it though.

Yeah, I remember when they had summaries about episodes with Tom and Jerry and The Bill on Capital Hill. Boy was that false information. And you did a nice job with all the guest stars for the episodes. Although the latest three seem to lack the notes, quotes, and cultural refrences that the other 6 episode guides have. Need any help with that?

[Masamune2052]

Three things I love about this episode of Inu Yasha:

1) "Run away!!!"

2) "You better avenge me!"
"Fine, I'll avenge you..."

3) Inu Yasha little speech about being a hanyou and having to make a place of his own.

[Majin_Megabyte]

Zenigatacon is still the best episode of Lupin the 3rd this far. The Snoopy qoute is the funniest part still follow by all 4 Zenigatas.
