[King Moonraiser]

The girls get sucked into an old silent movie in order to save the Professor from Max Von Nitrate. The episode included cameos by Charlie Chaplin, the Keystone Kops, and Harold Lloyd (hanging from the clock.)

The writers seems to be basing a lot of the episodes in seasons five and six on their ability to emulate the look and feel of other shows and mediums. Documentary, I See a Funny Cartoon In Your Future, Lying Around the House, Prime Apes, and Shotgun Wedding are some examples of this phenomenon. There's nothing wrong with that. In fact, the effort made to emulate the silent movie experience was done spectacularly well by the animators in this episode. The danger is that the writers rely too much on the special effects or in-jokes and neglect the storyline.

While the ending was dumb, it was an enjoyable and creative episode. Kudos on eliminating the PPGs' powers once they were in the movie. I wish some other episodes of late ("Lying Around the House," "Burglar Alarmed," and "Coup d'etat," I'm looking in your direction) accounted for the girls' insanely powerful abilities. This is one of those borderline two-and-a-half/three-star reviews that could have truly gone either way.

Two and a half stars

[Agent Orange]

I liked this ep, the catchy player piano tune was a great find IMO. I do agree that the ending was very off, but otherwise a good ep nonetheless...

Ugh! not as bad as west in pieces, but close...I despised this one and everyone who made it. There was no funny, barely any action, and it too can rot in the void of darkness called "Hell"
