[King Moonraiser]

A number of daring robberies are occurring right under the PPGs' noses...or lack thereof. Anyway, the girls dismiss the Gangreene Gang as suspects since they believe the gang is unable to concoct anything more than a petty theft. Little do they know, the boys have been trained by a mysterious benefactor: Sedusa! At last, we get some closure to why we haven't seen her since season two. Her hair was the source of her power. When Ms. Bellum cut it, Sedusa's super-abilities were effectively neutered as well.

The role Sedusa plays in this episode is a little complex. She uses sex appeal as a means to get the GGG to do her bidding. However, the stronger theme in the episode is Sedusa as a mother-figure to the boys. There were some really poignant scenes, especially when Sedusa reveals her true motives. What was really refreshing was how completely different the PPGs handled the situation from "Slave The Day." Their compassion spoke volumes. I can only hope it was a conscious effort rather than a byproduct of the apparent stricter CN standards and practices in the later seasons.

BTW, I loved Blossom's, "something's amiss here, and we're gonna find out what," line. Oh, and Bubbles', "Asps. Very dangerous," line, too.

Three stars

[Agent Orange]

I think this is one of the better episodes of the 6th season, if not THE best.

I thought the Girls acted far more mature than I've seen them do in quite some time and it had lots of good stuff in it that got a chuckle out of me.

This episode showed me why I (still) love this show so much.
