Saw it, not my favorite episodes. I did enjoy H.O.M.E. more than L.I.C.O.R.I.C.E I loved Number 1 trying to give Number 3 a talk, that was cute.

LICORICE: You know Kids Next Door has a habit of doing the most non-traditional parodies for a Kids Cartoon. It was the first real anyting to parody the Animatrix (ARCHIVE) and now it's the first real anything to go after Pirates Of The Carribean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl. With the "transforming into zombies after being greedy with treasure not belonging to you and kidnapping one who could help you lift the curse" plot. (Plus the captain of the black licorice zombie priates was a bit like Captain Barbosa, and the sugarfree thing might be a refrence to parlee from the movie). Anyway this was a pretty good Numbah 5 ep, showcasing her relationships with Stickybeard and even Hienrich (I was wondering when those candy themed nemesis would appear in an episode together). I would of liked more refrences to Curse Of The Black Pearl and the song went on a little long but still not a bad ep.

HOME: You know it's interesting that we've had a bunch of 2&4 episodes, 2%5 eps, 3&4 eps and even 1&2 eps, but no 3&5 eps. For some reasons the two starring girls of the show never had any real showcase eps together but this was a pretty good one for that. The best parts were Numbah 3's little montage of her first rainbow monkey and her still bawling in her room about it. I also like how Numbah 5 ended up tagging along and even the Nurse from Pinkeye's return. (Wonder what happened to the two operatives who tried tracking her down? That sounds like fanfic potential if anyone cares for it). Nothing extradionary in this ep but nothing extradionarily bad either.

Will there be another broadcast of this movie? I missed it tonight (as of this posting). I rather watch these toon flicks when it's not within another programs (I.E. Fridays, Miguzi, Toomani, etc.). The hosts (on Fridays) and bumpers can be annoying at times. Well, not the bumpers.

To Net1360: You know you really shouldn't ask a question about another episode's airtime in a talkback about a specific episode. But to answer your question, ZERO is replaying Saturday 5:30 PM and Sunday 9:30AM. If you had gone to the ZERO talkback the first post would of mentioned repeat times, and those blocks aren't assoicated with Fridays or any other major CN blocks so you shouldn't have any annoyances like there was was this showind (though I expect these showing also to have squished credits. Sadly it's just what CN does now for most shows).
