Also Jamie Oliver was there for some reason. Davy Jones of The Monkees made a cameo, but even this was wasted on a pretty bland song with no true joke to it. Once again, I barely laughed at all, as none of the jokes worked. The second, “Meatloaf Surprise”, just felt off and weird. The ending musical number even wasn’t really as funny as it should have been. Typically the show offers a big bundle of laughs, but here, even Doofenshmirtz’s plot didn’t bring anything notably funny to the table, and I only surmounted a few chuckles through the whole thing. It was a change of pace that didn’t follow the typical format and had a pretty good sense of fun. The first, ” Bad Hair Day”, did something I like–that being, mixing things up.
Phineas and Ferb - Both of these episodes were just so…meh. On Disney Channel Friday, we had a new episode of: Plus, there’s always good to be found in an episode that focuses on Bender. Then the second, “Benderama”, was the better of the two, as the story was better delivered, with just the same amount of laughs to be found. Despite this, there was a great cluster of jokes that are typical of a Futurama episode, and from that standpoint, it was able to deliver.

The plot sort of felt like a series of events that never got detailed enough as opposed to a complete story, and the gender battle scenario felt a bit retreated. The first, “Neutopia”, was probably the weakest.
Futurama - Good news everyone! Futurama is back after a several-month-long break, with TWO new episodes. On Comedy Central Thursdays, we had two new episodes of: Not the show at the top of its game, but still a pretty damn entertaining episode as the show’s writing starts to finally finds a solid foundation. The jokes mostly worked, the best of which obviously fell to Daffy.
Taz was alright, as was the others, though I find it sort of weird that Granny is reverted to a completely stereotypical deaf old women as opposed to a kindly little old lady.
The Looney Tunes Show - Offers the first portrayals of this show’s versions of Taz, Granny, Tweety, and Sylvester. Still, um, I heard it was a pretty good episode. I never watched this show before I started this blog, so I can never remember when it’s on. Scooby Doo! Mystery Incorporated - I…did not see this episode. But the show ended with all of its problems in tact–horrible animation, ugly designs and colors, dull storytelling, hallow surrealism, annoying characters–and I never laughed once this entire episode. This was a shock and something I can actually totally admire. This finale was surprisingly meta and addressed the hatred beamed at it by using it as a plot device. The Problem Solverz - The show’s in-all-likelihood series finale was just as bad as every episode before it. The ending “Flammable” sketch, a surprising musical skit parodying Katy Perry’s “Fireworks”, and the “GleeCR” faux commercial were the only redeeming graces, as everything else was more miss-than-hit.

The opening “Force Code” sketch completely lost me, as I have not seen Source Code and nothing was done in the parody to make it accessible to those who had not.
MAD - This episode felt really short, and unfortunately the few sketches that were shown almost all fell short. Darwin and Gumball seemed a tad too mean-spirited, but that could easily be justified by factoring in their naivete. The Amazing World of Gumball - Not this show’s very best episode, as it had its fair share of faults, but lots of jokes were especially inspired and the whole thing was typically goofy and hilarious. (I do apologize for not having practically any posts at all this week, but I’ve been busy partaking in a South Park marathon and haven’t really had the time.) Some spoilers below. It’s here that I look back at the week in animation and say what I thought worked, what I thought failed, and what I thought was the best-of-the-best of week.
Time for the end-of-the-week Sunday Wrap-Up.
