So, there's a LOLCat poster onscreen for like, one second and you're taking off points because of that?

I'd love it if next time they visited Tokyo there was a sign that said. "Land of the rising setting sun."

In a world where spaceships work by moving the rest of the universe around the ship, how is getting a planet rotating again so difficult?

Y'know what? Who cares, there are cute kitties!

P.S. Kitten cuteness hypnosis vs. the Hypnotoad. Who Would Win?

^Depends who's first. My money's on the Hypnotoad, since he can't/wont turn his powers off.

It's fairly obvious that the only reason the Hypnotoad could ever lose would be if the perceived failure on its part was actually part of a larger, carefully calculated victory.

With such awesome powers at its disposal, the Hypnotoad could easily take over Earth if it ever so chose.

...Or has it?

well he already has a TV show, and television is the opiate of the masses.

I've been thinking about your name and avatar: What if Piccolo fused with Videl?

I'm not sure, but if Robosexuality is one of the new episodes, I don't like the new series.

^ It is one of the new episodes. But it's kind of stupid to judge the whole season based on one episode.

the season's been hit and miss, but on the whole I'd say it was just as good as the others.

This was a pretty good episode. It's not often Amy get's an episode to herself, but this was a good one. Also, Nibbler officially becoming a member of the planet experss crew is an interesting idea. It sets up some funny situations, such as the scene where Nibbler is inquiring about the cat while Amy changes his diaper.

I didn't like the Robosexuality one because it was too preachy too me.

So far, I haven't been disappointed by a single episode this season.

And the robosexuality episode, to me, is among the best in the series.

Even if it was sort of "preachy" (sort of) most of the jokes in it were still funny.

It's not just that one LO Lcats joke. The entire episode could have pretty much have been summarized as "LO Lcats try to take over the world."

Not to mention that the ending made no sense. So all they had to do was just turn the crank the opposite way? The cats didn't think of that?

But I guess this is a YMMV situation, since I'm pretty much the only person who didn't like it.

edit: I'm not usually Mr. Nitpicky either, I loved the Robosexuality episode.

I was pretty meh on the robosexuality episode, but I loved the "ghost and horse" joke.

There was only really one Lolcats reference with the poster. 'Cats are cute' isn't exactly a thing specific to lolcats, and neither is broken baby talk to cute things...

exactly. The Lolcats thing disappointed me, but that was the extent of their referencing in the episode as a whole.

The cats really didn't think things through besides how does this help us?.

I liked tonights episode, but playing an episode the exact same moral done a dozen times better kinda kills it.

This episode was meh. Good but not great. Not as good as its predecessors.

This is still a signature.
