This episode covers the two-part arc beginning with 'Videolympics' and 'Mega Trouble in Mega Land,' followed by the genie-themed 'Wishful Thinking.' The hosts discuss the show's animation, plot inconsistencies, and the series' creative take on classic Nintendo game tropes.

ultimate warp zone. Kevin, I thought I told you

to clean up your room. Hello and welcome to the

latest episode of Pixels in the Animation. I

am one of your hosts TF2 and Mike. Joining me

in this epic journey is TV's Mr. Neil. Today

we continue the Captain and the Game Master reviews

as we talk about the next three episodes of this

all -gen gaming cartoon. So yeah, the first episode,

episode 21 a couple weeks ago. Interesting first

three episodes. It's gonna be really interesting

how I approach these three because two of them,

I was not expecting a few things. So any initial

thoughts before we get into the episodes? Not

really except that I wasn't expecting two of

these to be actually like two halves of a two

-parter. That kind of caught me off guard. I'm

like, oh the episode isn't actually ending. Well

it ended for a week. I don't remember that. I

didn't remember it either, so... Alright, we're

gonna get into the first episode after this.

THE POWER TO RULE VIDEO LAND! BUT MOST IMPORTANT

OF ALL, THE POWER TO DESTROY THE PRINCESS AND

THAT MADNESS CAPTAIN IS! METROID MIRROR ON MY

WALL! TELL ME HOW TO GRUSH THEM ONCE AND FOR

ALL! Hidden within Mount Icarus's towering peak,

the three sacred treasures contain the power

you seek. For ten thousand years, they've been

sight unseen. But bring the treasures together

and you'll soon be queen. Yes! Queen Mother Brain!

Supreme dictator of video land! You've won a

wonderful force! Give me the princess! Yes, Mother

Brain! Meanwhile, at the Palace of Power... Kevin,

hurry! Don't worry, princess! I'll be right there

in a flash! A life -sized Donkey Kong simulator!

What a concept! I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

If you've called to threaten us again, it won't

work, Mother Brain. You're absolutely right,

my dear. Threatening hasn't worked. And I apologize

for my rude behavior. All of this fighting gets

us nowhere. What do you say we settle our differences

in a more sportsman -like way? I don't trust

her. She's up to something. What do you suggest,

Mother Brain? A challenge! We'll hold a video

Olympics on not Hikarus! My warriors are athletes!

Against Captain Ian and his entity! If we lose,

we'll never set foot off Metroid again! If we

win... Alright, first up is Videolympics. Mother

Brain proposes a challenge. Videolympics on Mount

Icarus. With her League of Darkness competing

against the End Team. Okay, that has to be somebody

writing the wiki article. I don't ever remember

her villains called League of Darkness. Yeah,

I don't remember that either. Oh, competing against

the End Team. Winner takes the throne of Videoland.

This serves to distract the End Team. As mother

brain wants to get the three secret treasures

and conquer video and elements from Donkey Kong

Mike Tyson's punch out Mega Man and Kid Icarus

Wait what a to be continued what the hell? That

was when I went back and I watched that cuz like

I said last like I said two weeks ago I haven't

seen this series in seven years since the DVDs

came out so When I watch this I'm like, wait,

what how? No, you know Thankfully I didn't have

to wait because I don't remember if Captain N

was in daily syndication or weekly I don't remember

what it how it was airing. I think it was Saturday

morning, wasn't it? Yeah, it was Saturday morning

I don't think it was ever syndicated after that

on weekdays just because there wouldn't be enough

episodes I mean maybe later in the 90s when that

when that thing like went away Yeah syndication

back and eating 65 episodes that that went away

But anyway, but yeah, I mean I was like Hello,

where's the rest of the I was waiting for another

21 minutes. Yeah, I'm looking at the clock I'm

like they they better wrap this up. I mean they're

running out of time here. Yeah This first part

I like it It's interesting. Have you ever played

Kid Icarus? I've played a little bit of it. It's

kind of like a lousy version of Metroid. It's

hard to explain. If you duck, you fall through

the floor. See, unlike Metroid, if you're going

up a vertical stage, Metroid you can go you can

keep going up or you can go back down in Kid

Icarus if you decide to go back down you die

So I'm like this sucks and then I put in Metroid

Yeah I'm looking at a screenshot of the game

from wiki and the sky world Yeah, I'm kind of

glad I never played this game. It's very old

-school Nintendo and but when I say old -school,

I mean like Before they discovered how to do

good graphics. Yeah, yeah So the plot in this

is that mother brain wants the three treasures

on Mount Icarus and she creates this video Olympics

to Distract the end team and of course her villains

cheat Even though I do have to commend them at

first because they were really trying to quote

-unquote work out To make a move Yes To feel

our pain we should just put like a bed of mega

move in a constant loop underneath the podcast

Just so the listeners know Don't don't do that

Don't tempt me I will Yeah, so this first part

is that I like the plot of this first part because

we don't know what the We as the viewer don't

know what the secret treasures are what it just

Charles mother brain says is all it'll give me

ultimate power And I like see I like seeing them

do somewhat mock -up events of real and fake

events. I mean, at least they got the shot put

right, even though Mega Man shot puts it into

another... I'm sorry. Mega Man might be a strong

robot, but he ain't Superman. There's no way

he could have shot -putted that ball into the

next galaxy. Yeah. But on that same note, I'm

not sure why he had to work out because... He's

a robot. He's not going to get stronger. I mean,

instead of working out, you should go defeat

a couple of the robot masters and be like, hey,

guys, I have a new power. Oh, I'm sorry. You'd

be like, hey, guys, I have a new power. Any overall

thoughts on the plot for this one? Kind of a

strange plot. basically a MacGuffin plot. It's

like we have to get these three things. But in

the meantime, we're going to we're going to distract

the end team by having. Yeah, I'm just going

to call them the end team, distracting them by

throwing out an Olympics, an Olympic tournament

and blatantly cheat. And which I guess wasn't

against the rules, because no one no one got

called for it. Yeah, no. Yeah, it's very strange,

but, you know. You know, it's so it's no stranger

than anything that that that Skeletor would have

done so Yeah, that's that's very true he man

You princess We've got to give her the benefit

of the doubt But this is what we've been waiting

for your Heineken's a chance for peace I know

but mother brain can't be trusted. What if it's

a trick? Well, if it is What better way to find

out than to go along with it? What if we lose?

Lose? With me on our team? Don't be ridiculous!

With Captain N leading us, we'll have the mega

power to win! What do you say, your highness?

Alright, we are button mashing those power pads.

Simon got it in the rear, and that was funny.

Was funny using kid as an Simon got it in the

rear and he turns around I will say I did like

this moment from Simon he turns around and uses

kid at Chris as an arrow I will say that was

really funny. So yeah Yeah, I only have two notes

I have that one and I said nice seeing the mega

balls when Mega Man get destroyed and the sound

effect of him, the game effect of him getting

destroyed, I thought that was really cool. Yeah,

that was kind of a neat effect. What about you?

What'd you like about this one? Well, I noticed

that during the Mega Man competition when they

were climbing up the ladders and everything,

that was almost basically taken out of the Elect

Man stage of the first Mega Man game, that whole

thing. I'm like, oh, they actually... got something

from the game. It had everything except for the

music that kind of sounded like Journey. Yeah.

Yeah, that was basically it. It was kind of a

weird episode. Oh yeah, the wrestling competition

where Donkey Kong wins by sitting on Kevin. Kevin

would have been dead. Yeah. Mean it he basically

did the the earthquake Yeah Kevin would have

been dead because Donkey Kong in this series

has to at least be six seven eight hundred pounds

Oh way more than that. I mean we're talking like

multiple tons He's a megaton not only sat on

him, but basically pushed him Through the ring.

Yeah. Yeah Kevin should be dead right now. No

more series. No more episodes of the show. Kind

of funny because something happens in the second

half of this episode that kind of kind of calls

back to him getting squished, but we'll get to

that in time. Yes. Alright, we're gonna go get

zapped. Well, if it's cheatin' she wants, it's

cheatin' she'll get! Like my famous Breakin'

Ball Punch! Meanwhile back at the palace of power

the princess grows fearful of losing mother brains

challenge so it took us Three episodes for okay.

This is the fourth episode, but it took us three

episodes for me to notice an animation era On

Simon he's shown in the light blue uniform without

the end before the rest the team gets their gear

It's like a half a second But I did notice it

And I know, suspension of disbelief, but how

the hell did they all get matching blue and yellow

spandex and gear that fast? It's not like the

princess is gonna sew six different uniforms.

Maybe Dr. Light doubles as a tailor. Maybe. And

at this point, we're four episodes in, and I'm

already ready to shoot Kid Icarus with a gun.

Prince Esekis, oh my god. Oh my god, it just,

no. No, no, no, no, no. What don't you like about

this one? You know, the animation was kind of

poor. for this episode. It gets better in the

second half, but I thought it was kind of...

I didn't notice any overt errors, like coloring

errors or anything, but it was kind of glitchy

and a lot of characters were off -model, little

wall -eye at times. And I always kind of... The

trademark sigh comes in whenever that starts

happening. I'm like, oh boy, I remember why the

90s was a painful time for me. Yeah, there were

times when they were exercising. They were doing

jumping jacks. They weren't even doing the full

jumping jack. It was kind of this weird, kind

of floaty jumping animation. And when they were

jogging, it looked weird. Yeah, it just reminded

me. I rag on modern animation a lot, but sometimes

I guess it just isn't that bad. Well, the other

thing, as you mentioned there, they're jumping

jacks. there jump roping again why is his whip

alive his whip ties him up seriously all right

so we are gonna move on to the next episode Meanwhile

within the deadly warp zone to oblivion Something

tells me we're about to have a nightmare on Mother

Brain Street. It's the mega -center of our universe,

where all warp zones intersect. Which one of

these warpicus zones did we come out of? I don't

know, but the wrong one could take us to any

of a hundred deadly fates. Be cool, guys. This

is your captain speaking, and I've got an idea

how to find the way home. Simon, have you got

any rope in the backpack of yours? No, but I've

got some fishing line. Perfect. We'll have a

better chance of finding the way back if we each

take a different warp zone. Whoever finds the

right one, just give a tug on the line. Affirmative.

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe, kiss. This is the warp

zone into which I go again. You're next, Simon.

Don't be silly. I want to make sure both of you

get off safely. That's very thoughtful of you,

Simon. Good luck. Who needs luck when you have

brains? I'll just hang out here until I feel

a pull in my line And I won't have to risk my

handsome neck On the other hand why worry about

a neck when you've got an entire body to think

of I freaking love the mega land mega land levels

so awesome. That was really cool I thought it

was an interesting way to do a two -parter. Yeah,

you're right. They didn't get lost long enough,

but Again going back to oh my god, they don't

have enough time for this that end shot from

video Olympics That was really cool, and they

kind of started with that when they went in I

did think it was a little bit of ingenious on

Kevin's part with the the fishing line The only

problem with that is Specifically with Lana,

while we both agree seeing her slide into home

plate is glorious, I'm sorry, there's no way

that fishing line would last 90 feet because

it's 90 feet between third base and home plate.

And even though I forgot it was a two -parter,

I thought it was a really interesting way to

do a two -parter. You start out on one game,

and then you come back and do another game. What

did you like about this one? Well, what you just

mentioned, which is Princess Lana sliding into

home plate. I like that they did a pretty good

job of representing Mega Man, aside from kind

of doing cuts, man, and then kind of rushing

through the other five. Yeah. Medusa, they...

I don't know if that's how you beat Medusa. No,

I'm pretty sure it's not because Medusa is like

a giant head in the game. That was kind of interesting.

That's more like... That sort of thing was more

like something out of... I don't remember what

movie, but the way they make her look into the

mirror to turn herself to stone. Yeah. Yeah.

I don't know. I don't know what movie it's from,

but to me, it would kind of be like common sense.

Because the whole thing with Medusa is if you

look at her, she'll turn you to stone. Which,

of course, Simon was stupid enough to think,

oh, she sounds sexy, so she must be sexy. He

takes off his glasses or takes off his goggles

that was blocking his vision and instantly turns

to stone because he's an idiot. Best thing that

ever happened Simon Belmont and then he got changed

back once Medusa was turned us down And then

he goes all army on us is like as your commanding

officer I commend you to free this world All

right any other good points um Not that I can

really think of there is There was some sort

of like trash robot that dr. Light or dr. Wright

Gotta hate calling dr. Right just just calling

dr. Light. Yeah. Yeah, we know who he is it kind

of looks like a robot that was in Mega Man 3

pretty sure it's not supposed to be that but

the The resemblance is uncanny unless But yeah,

that's pretty much all I have Alright, we are

going to get zapped after this. He's too powerful.

We can't stop him. We can with a little help

from man's best friend. Dookalboy, remember how

you love to bark and run circles around the Gardener?

That's right. Guess what? He's the new Gardener!

Go get him! Alright, four bad moments for getting

zapped. God, Simon, you are a horrid character.

It's not just that he's vain, arrogant, all the

stuff we mentioned two weeks ago. It's not anything

that we already mentioned in this episode. the

fact that on top of all this other crap that

he is he doesn't listen he doesn't listen to

the own he doesn't even pay attention to what

he hears because he heard her laugh before she

talked in her sexy voice so wouldn't he associate

that with oh my god it's Medusa well she can't

be that bad And okay, we're five episodes in,

Mega Move is pissing me off. It's getting on

my nerves now. Because this episode, it was everywhere.

It won't stop. Yeah, it won't stop. And every

time Mega Man would start to say something, I

swear I thought every time he was going to say,

we better Mega Move. And if that had actually

happened, my brain would have exploded. Oh, boy.

Any other negative for this one? Just the the

plot hole that I mentioned earlier. It's like,

OK, Kevin gets squished by Donkey Kong during

the the Olympics, the video, whatever it was

called, the Olympics. And then in this one, he

gets he gets squished by the the one eye. Stompy

robot thing that I don't I don't remember the

name of that's actually it is a an enemy in Mega

Man Yeah, big guy. Yeah in the game in the cartoon,

but yeah, yeah, they get squished and they They

don't they don't well they die, but it's like

a video game They lose a life and they have to

go back to the last checkpoint Yeah, but it's

like okay if I Guess it's not really that that

bad of a negative point but it's it is like a

plot well it's previous episode yeah but it's

different because they were following mega man's

actual rules yeah they were following video game

logic except that there are no continues in this

in this version for some reason okay yes you're

right but i'm saying in general with mega man

if you get hit it takes your energy away or if

you get hit hard enough it'll make you go poof

and you're and you regenerate but with the donkey

kong thing that was a straight -up donkey kong

murdered kevin i don't care what anybody says

i don't care what anybody comments donkey kong

the giant ape the the 100 ton ape that he is

murdered kevin keen because kevin should have

been dead right there because in the mega land

section of it it's they're using mega man's energy

right and you see Kevin when he gets stomped

on by the by the big eye you see him glow red

thankfully it wasn't a very dark red or else

that would have been associated for blood but

you see him glow red for a few minutes and that

didn't happen in the donkey kong segment but

yeah i i kind of see your point all right we're

gonna move on to the final episode of the day

And we win the game! Block it! Block it! You

did it! We won! Your world has some really fun

games, Kevin. That was really using your head,

Kid Icarus. I tried, Icarus. Looks like you came

up a little short, huh, guys? It's not my fault

I'm so short, Icarus. Kid Icarus! What's the

matter? I can never have fun at games because

I'm so small! The sixth episode of Captain and

the Game Master is entitled Wishful Thinking.

The end team discovers a magic lamp. Oh no, no,

no, no, no. So Kid Icarus wishes himself to become

bigger, and everything goes horribly wrong. To

make matters worse, Mother Brain has set her

sights on getting it for herself, and sends Eggplant

Wizard and King Hippo to steal it. No, no, no,

no, no. Oh my god. An Aladdin episode. In Captain

you know if this show had gone on To 94 they

could have actually had Aladdin in the friggin

episode I Didn't like the voice of the genie

I Don't know who voiced him. Yeah, I kind of

like how he was just kind of like I Don't know

you just got a very non like not into what was

going on. He was just kind of exasperated and

kind of sighed a lot like, oh boy, here we go

again. That kind of guy. I'm like, yes, my favorite

character already. Yeah, that was awesome. And

it was kind of like, it's kind of like a monkey

paw type plot where like you could wish for something,

but the wish is always going to go wrong. Yeah.

And it does not say on here who Voiced the genie

which kind of sucks, but I did like the genie's

voice Very very cool So the plot for this is

basically As I mentioned two weeks ago Kid Icarus

and Mega Man are pretty much midgets and Kid

Icarus really takes issue with his size Yeah,

he prefers to be called little people Sure, he

does There are people out there laughing at that

like No, I know. I know He's coming up a little

short. Yes Yeah, I just This is a standard episode

that somebody wish it I mean, if you don't even

want to call it an Aladdin episode, it's your

standard, oh my god, this person wishes to be

something that they're not. And then they have

to learn the lesson of, well, you've had it inside

you all along. Just because you're small doesn't

mean you're insignificant and learning lessons

and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. What I did

like about the plot and how they executed it

was the fact that Kid Icarus' voice changed.

grew bigger i thought that was kind of cool i'm

not sure if it was the same voice actor i would

assume it would be yeah it sounded like they

just pitched the actor down yeah um the whole

the whole the whole genie plot captain n i could

see why he would wish that you know to be the

best It kind of felt like they were taking a

shot at the Game Genie because he wished for

something that made him like better and stronger

and then he was like, wow, this is boring. And

I'm like, oh, that was basically Nintendo's slam

against the Game Genie. It's like it takes the

challenge and fun away. Yeah. Yeah. For the rest

of the episode, I'm just going to call him the

Game Genie. Yeah. Um, yeah, so let's go ahead

and punch them power pads after this. Wow, I

didn't know Kid Icarus was so sensitive about

his size. It must be tough on the little fella.

Not being tall, dark, and handsome like myself.

Fortunately, he'll never be as conceited either.

be something we can do to make him feel mega

better not now Duke we're busy later Duke Whoever

possesses my lamp, to him I shall grant any wish.

What lamp? Duke? Where'd he get it? Who cares?

With a magic lamp, I could save Videoland! I

could be the strongest man in the universe! I

could be even handsomer! Let's see if this thing

really works. I wish I was unbeatable with my

zapper and power pad. Your wish is my command.

Really boring. In that case, I'll take it. I

wish the princess would fall head over heels

for me. If that's what you want. Oh, Simon! Your

exquisite -ness. You are? was close all right

put those power pads down ladies and gentlemen

what do you got for good points sir um just that

like we said before the genie just very exasperated

like really kind of disgusted with all the wishes

that are being made he's like oh i guess i gotta

grant this one and kind of being sarcastic too

there are times where he's just kind of Kind

of grinning as he's like insulting the characters

like like eggplant wizard wishes for Kid Icarus

to be very small and he's like the size of your

brain perhaps Yeah, it's just really passive

aggressive and funny. He's the best character

in this in this episode. Oh, yeah, possibly even

the entire show Well, I don't know because There

there are a couple of Hyrulians that show up

later. That's true. Is that I also like that

kind of was this the episode that had I'm blanking.

Oh wait There were there was oh, yeah, this was

this was the episode where they turned mother

brain into a maid And there's some reason she

had to go along with it. Even though she was

like I'll get you guys You know, it's like well,

why don't you just do that now you turn into

a tank don't you? Yeah, yeah good old mother

made and then later in the episode she was mother

basketball player or something or other They

put her in a boxing match Yeah, yeah mother Tyson

there you go You know mother brain was smart

she would just get Mike Tyson cuz no one can

beat Mike Tyson Yeah, that's that's true everybody

can beat up on King Hippo yeah for me I don't

know I didn't love or hate this episode but at

the same time I didn't didn't really care I mean

I've pretty much already said both of my notes

for both segments in the plot the Aladdin episode

but I will say that for good moments I did see

you know all the wishes that the end team made

I thought those are pretty interesting I thought

that was pretty cool showing kind of showing

their personalities for each of them you know

so I like that eggplant wizard and king okay

King Hivo I get he wants to be a real king he

wants to be rich he wants to you know sit on

his ass and eat chicken legs eggplant wizard

What was he wishing for again? I don't know.

I think he just kind of went along with King

Hippo It's just like well, I seem to be benefiting

from this so I won't try anything Is that the

only time that they double -cross mother brain

the entire series I'm gonna guess no just because

it's the underlings to double cross the leader

All right, we are gonna get zapped after this

I thought you'd never ask This is going into

the palace vault until we can decide what should

be done with it. With that kind of magic at my

command, my power would be limitless. I must

get my tentacles on that lamp. Uh, what do you

want with this stupid old lamp, Mother Brain?

We've got plenty of light here on Metroid. Yes,

but we could all use a little more illumination,

couldn't we? Now don't get any more bright ideas!

You dimwit! Just give me that magic ring! Hey,

your wish is our command! Mother breath. Later

that evening as the end team sleeps. Who holds

the lamp is my master. What is your wish? I want

to be bigger than the others. Much bigger! This

is fantasticus! I need a bigger than my ownus!

You ain't seen nothing yet. Hey, what's going

onicus? Is that big enough? Stop! No moreicus!

Who's there? What's going on in here? Getting

zapped. Oh great. A quote, I'm not this or I'm

not that self -esteem episode. I mean, I don't

know, like I said in the... in the power pads

I just found this episode tolerable I didn't

dislike it I didn't love it but I don't know

it just I guess coming off the excitement of

what I didn't even realize was a two -parter

and then going to this it's kind of like what's

next I don't know what was there anything you

didn't like about this one um just that it's

one of those uh everyone is special you can be

what you want to be type episodes that is kind

of a lie as you grow older you become kind of

a cynical cranky guy like me but it yeah it's

one it's one of those that's like it's like everyone's

special in their own little way have a trophy

you know in in reality it's like yeah i kid you

know Plus, there are so many episodes where Kid

Icarus was useful. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating,

but he's not useless. It's just that in this

episode, suddenly, he's just incapable of keeping

up with everyone else, whereas in other episodes,

that wouldn't be a problem. Plus, you got Mega

Man there, who's also a shrimp, and nothing is

ever said about that. Yeah, no. It's like, no,

this has to be Kid Icarus's story. We'll just

kind of leave that little detail on the side.

Yeah, if anything, Mega Man should have been

the one that felt hurt because he was left out

of being a shrimp. But if I remember correctly,

he does have his own little hang up episode later

on. Yeah, he does. He does. He does. Alright,

I think that's gonna do it for this episode of

pixels because there's not like Like I said,

I don't want to I know I'm being a broken record

when I say this but There wasn't much here to

like or dislike. It was just one of those middle

-of -the -road episodes. Yeah, so What music

are we going to play for the lovely listeners?

Um, I have not decided yet Okay, well, we'll

be hearing some sort of video game interlude.

It'll be in the show notes. Okay, good deal.

Let's send me those links. But yes, we'll be

back with ratings and final thoughts and closing

the show after this. Are you looking for a weekly

dose of gaming news and retro? And check out

Off the Cuff, available Fridays on GeekCast Radio

Network from the producers of XRG. New name,

same. All right, we are back here on Pixels in

the Animation and we are going to rate these

three episodes today. For VideoLympics, I am

going to give it a four out of five. I like the

way... Again, the reason why I give it a four

out of five is because I didn't know what was

going to be it. Because they're not titled part

one, part two. So you don't expect that unless

you read Wiki or unless you read any other description

online. You don't expect that at all because

they're individual episodes. They look like they're

individual episodes. Sure, like I said, Did they

all get matching and you know blue and yellow

and gear that's you know, that's a nitpick at

best the animation error on Simon It's like I

said, it's like three seconds you If you blink

you miss it, but I found it interesting that

because the animation error occurred with his

dark blue I Don't know if that's suit or jacket

or whatever the hell he's wearing, it changed

to light blue and then poof! They all have light

blue stuff on and it was kind of interesting.

What about you for VideoLympics? I'm going to

give it a 3. It was kind of a weak plot. I understand

that the real story was in part 2 but the setup

was just kind of weak and some of the animation,

there weren't any overt errors but it was...

You know the character models are a little weak

in the episode like I said the the wall -eyed

expressions are when I start getting kind of

Where are those eyes where are those eyes pointing?

I don't know Yes, I'll pay certain friends as

a skirt that's where they're probably all pointing

Mega trouble in mega land I again Really like

this even though even though this was the episode

that the mega move just annoyed the crap out

of me and I Thought that Simon was a hard character

here I'm still the the episode the story the

plot everything about it was really really cool

again. The voice acting is pretty stellar I'm

still gonna give this one a four to five. What

about you? Um, I'll give it a four. Yeah much

better episode and wishful thinking too. Like

I said, and I know I'm being a broken record

here, nothing spectacular happens either way.

Nothing spectacularly bad or spectacularly good

really happens. When you first see the intro

to this show and Kevin getting sucked into the

TV, If you're ruled by nostalgia, like I usually

am most of the time, you're going to have some

sort of emotional moment about it. But here in

this episode, it was just nothing. So two out

of five for me. I did. No. What about you? I'll

give it a three. I thought it was a I actually

thought it was a pretty funny episode, but it

gets docked a couple of points for being a kid,

Icarus episode. But I love the sarcastic, insulting

genie. Yeah, yeah exasperated didn't want shit

from anyone and Casually insulted characters

as he was talking to them Yeah If it was all

about the genie all the time In this episode,

I probably would have given it higher but yeah

All right What's what's going on over at no super

pants calm? Well, continuing my side story arc,

I guess you would say, I'm wrapping up the story

called Parker Lynn Bailey's Day Off. It was actually

from a book that I was published in several years

ago. I'm finally putting it online. After that,

I have some comics drawn by other artists around

the internet. So people might be kind of excited
