Bender has a new job/scheme. This week it’s … (hold on, let grab this out of the hat) … truffle hunting! Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 9: “The Trouble with Truffles”
This to me is probably the weakest episode of Season 3, but only because I have seen the entire show dozens and dozens of times. We already had two tablesetting episodes, and now instead of getting to the fireworks factory … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…- “A Day in the Strife”
Dr. Zoidberg becomes Dr. Turanga. Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 8: “Crab Splatter”
“Convictions” is more of a procedural style episode, with one mystery that does not really impact the overall story lines, and most everything gets wrapped up by the end. It does however introduce some new characters, and continues the first … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Convictions”
Marceline the Vampire Queen Storyboard by: Ako Castuera and Jesse Moynihan Original Airdate; November 16, 2015 Review By: Prestidigititis Adventure Time episodes are only eleven minutes long. Seven seasons in, we’ve got characters whose backstories would humble a Prestige-Era-Television showrunner. … Continue reading Come Alone With Me: Adventure Time – “Stakes”
We have hit Season 3, widely regarded as the best season of the whole show! I am also among those who consider it Babylon 5 at it’s height. If you think of Babylon 5 as one long story from Season … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Matters of Honor”
It’s Science vs. Religion! One will be debunked and killed in the arena! Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 6: “Wicked Human”
Even though my recaps are only dropping now in late October, it is time for Babylon 5’s Christmas episode! It is really the only one that counts, and I count it as such because Christmas is mentioned and someone gets … Continue reading The Last Best Hope… – “The Fall of Night”
The Planet Express Kids learn an important lesson about putting down their damn phones! Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 5: “Scared Screenless”
This episode is a rough one to watch and honestly not one that I tend to revisit. I have never been a fan of torture episodes like this, and mostly for very simplistic reasons. I like these characters! Why would … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Comes the Inquisitor”
Bonnie & Neddy Boarded by: Tom Herpich and Steve Wolfhard Originally Aired: November 2, 2015 Review by: CedricTheOwl Welcome everyone, to Season 7 of Adventure Time.

In which Futurama goes full math nerd. Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 4: “The Numberland Gap”
After the absolute emotional body blows of “Confessions and Lamentations” and “The Long Twilight Struggle” you would think we would be in for a bit of a break, but “Divided Loyalties” piles on. The stakes are lowered somewhat from entire … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Divided Loyalties”
Hot Diggity Doom | Aired: June 5, 2015 | Written & storyboarded by: Thomas Herpich & Steve Wolfhard | Reviewed by Lyssie So – election time!

Fry wonders if Leela is really their soulmate. Doesn’t have insanity peppers or space coyotes, but they do their best with the premise. Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 3: “Fifty Shades of Green”
This is probably the episode I revisit most often from Season 2. Peter Jurasik and Andreas Katsulas are absolutely amazing in every scene, two legendary scifi guest actors nail their scenes, several huge pieces of plot get resolved or moved … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“The Long Twilight Struggle”
Graybles Allsorts Boarded by Steve Wolfhard, Geneva Hodgson, and Patty Guo Aired: July 6, 2015 – November 1, 2015 Reviewed by: CedricTheOwl Somewhere during production of season 6, Adventure Time also started work on a series of shorts that would … Continue reading Come Along With Me: Adventure Time – Graybles Allsorts and On the Lam
In which Futurama does a worse version of a story it already did 23 years ago. Continue reading Futurama – Season 13, Episode 2: “The World Is Hot Enough”
This one is a bit of a gut punch of an episode, and one that JMS was proud of mostly for subverting convention. I think it hits harder these days, because when I first watched the AIDS epidemic, which it … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Confessions and Lamentations”
Be Sweet Air Date: June 2, 2015 Storyboarded by: Seo Kim and Somvilay Xayaphone Reviewed by Prestidigititis Today’s first Adventure Time episode is a calamity.
