Hate Floats, an episode with a lot of great bits and lines, but also a lot of awkwardness "We're going to get our asses kicked, we didn't have a breakfast"

Assassinanny 911, a good episode(especially everything Hunter says), but man is the "Hank crushing on Molotov" plot really awkward and honestly not all that funny either(except for the "teepee" gag)

Every time I see the word parkour, I think "Pi Wi, use your parkour".

Not directly thread relevant but Parkour makes me think of that scene from Punisher War Zone where a group of criminals are doing that stuff and as one of them is mid air he gets blown up by a rocket shot by Frank Castle Which is honestly the kind of thing this show would probably do if it had the opportunity

They were just practicing and Frank blew them up because they were trespassing and because of noise complaints

I have one cat who likes to run out of our finished basement by heading toward the stairs, then leaping onto one of the walls (the walls of the corner where the stairs are located are carpeted), then running on that wall to the next one , then running on that wall to the landing on the stairs before finishing the run on the stairs. Whenever I see this, I actually mutter, St. Cloud-style, "par-koooouuuuuurrrr!"

Like I can't hear "do the hustle" (which is a lot because its on the random as gently caress playlist they have at work) without thinking of Fry dancing to it

twistedmentat posted:That sounds impressive. Likewise, I can't hear someone say "Have you heard of _____?" without my brain answering in Fry's voice, "I've not-heard of it." (For those unfamiliar with the scene, the way in which Fry emphasizes the word "not" makes it sound like not-hearing about something is merely one of many various kinds of ways in which someone can be said to have heard of something. It's like not-hearing about something is almost as good as having heard about it.) ((OK, that was wordy... try this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwWgGKFWW1E))

uber_stoat posted:the Scooby Doo guys are in there too. Those guys I saw. I think Sonny-stein features prominently in the episode. Prominently for one of the steins, anyway. And can we take a moment to appreciate that in addition to turning "arch" into a verb that means "to perform actions of aggression against one's sworn enemy," they also turned "-stein" into a suffix with a distinct meaning? We all know what Hank-stein, Dean-stein, Ted-stein, Sonny-stein, etc. means.

I'm rewatching all the episodes from this season that I DVRd but didn't watch because of the streaming and I noticed that Dr. Z has some of the pictures he took with Sergeant Hatred in season three up on his wall.

Now he's in eighth grade and we watch Venture Bros together. I have been watching this show since before he was born.

tarlibone posted:No, she didn't. The "Name-stein" usage is pretty obvious if you're even vaguely aware of Frakenstein. I don't see anything special being done here with the use of language, it's not like they're inventing new vernacular. It's mildly clever, somewhere in between Frankenberry and Frank N Furter.

I don't see anything special being done here with the use of language, it's not like they're inventing new vernacular. It's mildly clever, somewhere in between Frankenberry and Frank N Furter. Obvious? Maybe. But Mary Shelley didn't do it, mainly because "Frankenstein" wasn't the name she gave to some dude named Franken who was reanimated by the book's titular mad scientist. And, I'm not sure anyone else prior to this show ever used "X-stein" to describe someone, X, who had been reanimated. I could be wrong about that, though; my knowledge of science fiction horror is pretty limited. Well, I stand corrected. But, I do wonder when he switched over, because he says "bungler" now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0o_B_-gbo50&t=16s

In his long and illustrious career, Dr. Z has been plagued by BOTH bunglers and blunderers, and given the chance I'm sure he would be happy to explain the differences to you in excruciating detail.

Hopefully with one of those wonderful synth-based musical backgrounds like the one heard at the title card in the Blunderer video. I'm glad they gave Dr. Z some serious air time this season. He's always been pretty cool in his previous, brief appearances, but this season, he really shined. Shone? Is it shined or shone? Whatever. He was brilliant.
