Go To

Release: November 20, 2019

Focus: Nostalgic Commercials

Guest Starring: Michael Salvatori

This review contains examples of:

  • Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: When the Critic reviews commercials for Flintstones vitamins, he finds it funny that the Flintstones are being used to sell something healthy considering the huge amount of unhealthy products they sold in the past. He cites Winston cigarettes, Busch beer, and Denny's food as examples.
    Critic: Hey, you know they're in the same ball park!
  • The Cat Came Back: Throughout the episode, Michael Salvatori keeps returning from wherever the Critic keeps putting him, in Looney Tunes fashion.
  • Screams Like a Little Girl / Smash to Black: Near the end, the Critic screams like a girl at the sight of first the Panda from the Never Say No to Panda commercials (with guest Michael Salvatori in the back) and then the Ring Monkey from the Gainomax commercial. And the video ends right then and there.
  • Title-Only Opening: This time, the Critic interrupts the "episode brought to you by..." introduction with "COMMERCIALS!" Therefore, this episode's subtitle is given that opening phrase.


"Switch on Chargertron supersonic machines!"
