Did anyone see this new episode? If so, what did you think of it?
LUNCH - Lizzie is becoming more of a humorous character everytime I see her. This episode just shows why I like Lizzie so much: She's a jerk. XD But you have to give credit for One for being loyal... or perhaps he waited there out of fear? It wouldn't be surprising, knowing how Lizzie was acting.
All and all, I liked that episode.
MUNCHIES - Kind of... odd, yet strangely creative. It was kind of lacking in some places, but eh, still a good episode.

LUNCH was funny as h*ll. The Robin Food guys-one was a takeoff on Sammy Davis Jr., the other was Errol Flynn (He played Robin Hood in the 1940s, I think???).
Yay! The Senior Citizen Squad and Grandma Gilligan return! They hate "munchkin food" and call R. Food "a shmeggelah (sp?) with tights". Too funny!
I know all the Lizzie haters out there are going to be screaming that Nigie shouldn't be with a girl that treats him like that, but the guy DOES need to wind down a little. Why not sit there and do nothing? I thought his devotion to her in this one WAS a little weird, but hey, to each his own.
Overall rating: 8/10
MUNCHIES: It was funny to see everyone fight over a silly box of sugary cereal. BBQs notwithstanding, the villians are easily divided. I wanted to kick Nightbrace at the end for being soooooooo politically correct!
No, there weren't any great insights from this one (except my jaw almost fell on the floor when I saw Nigel and Father shaking hands!), it was fun, and that's all it was meant to be.
Overall rating: 7/10

COOL EPISODES!!!! ...Robin Food and Little One with their band of Hungry men stealing children's lunch food and serving it to senior citizens of Surewood Forest Retirement Home.... What will they think up next? Nigel shook hands with FATHER? How... Why... When... Did you notice how happy they seemed to be together when eating the Rainbow Munchies? |

Are you talking to me? Because I haven't seen it.
But if Father and Numbuh One work together at any point, I want to.

Ehh...*shrugs* I wasn't insanely thrilled with either episode, but I definitely liked MUNCHIES better than LUNCH. Sorry, I just...I really can't stand Lizzie, and I really hate how Numbuh 1 takes so much crap from her. I know it's supposed to be funny, but I dunno, it just bothers me. Especially that part at the end when Lizzie tells Nigel that his butt isn't getting any smaller, or whatever she said. I mean, has she gotten a good look in the mirror lately? Meh. Whatever.
Although Robin Food did amuse me something awful. I love how he's too lazy to make food, so he goes out and steals it. ;D That's funny.
Did anyone else notice that the Robin Food song sounds remarkably like the Rainbow Monkey song? Or was that just me?
Overall rating: 5/10
I liked MUNCHIES a lot better. The story seemed to go a little fast, but then again there really wasn't much of a story. Seeing Father shop and talking about coupons and dish pan hands was hilarious, and the SHOPPINGDART and Numbuh 4's ridiculously huge mattress bazooka? Very badass. I loved it when Stickybeard was in hot pursuit of the KND and dodging between the different aisles. So awesome. And...yeah. Good episode. Pointless fun and humor is always good. *thumbs up*
Overall rating: 7.5/10

Lunch- one word, Random!! That's why I liked it. I like randomness! Anyway, I love the SCS's return and that was really about it. Robin Food kinda scared me though but that's okay.
7/10
Munchies-My new 2nd favorite eppie!!!! (my fave is foodfite) It was so cool to see all the villians together and the allyship at the end! I loved how the toilenator thought he had the chance to actually defeat the KND then got hit wit the ship. Also teh 2/5edness when Numbuh 2 kept tellin corny jokes. I mean, sure that's in every eppie but did anyone notice how close they were to each other or was that just the 2/5 shippers. There was also some 3/4ness but, I'll leave that to a 3/4 fan...
10/10

Both of the eps were kind of odd, and both involved a fight for food. Hm....
One of these days I'm going to do a big character analysis of Lizzie, charting her growth as a character and of her relationship with Nigel. I really think that every time we see her we get new insights into the arc of their relationship. LUNCH is just another piece of the puzzle.
I found it interesting that at the beginning, Nigel started to soften (you can see it in his expression) right *before* Lizzie started to yell, which shows that he's grown (relationshipwise), but Lizzie hasn't noticed yet (as she's obviously had to deal with him this way before, and he probably didn't back down until after she yelled). As for Nigel waiting all that time, I think it was due to - not fear exactly, but the knowledge that if he left, Lizzie would accuse him of standing her up (again!) and that it's just easier to stay there than try to explain why he left.
Somehow I knew that Robin Food and his men would end up singing, although it did amuse me more than I thought it was, as very few Robin Hood-esque songs can measure up to the one in Shrek. And it took me a while to figure out that it was Little Juan, not Little One (as I thought they were calling him). And it was great to see the SCS again, mecha and all. When Grandma Gilligan first showed up, I was like "Yay, Grandma cameo!" and then it turned into an even bigger part.
I think the ending would have been better if Lizzie had made something disgusting but still romance-related, and then Nigel forced it down because of his love for her, or something like that.
MUNCHIES was good and bad to me. I mean, it was good in that it had the whole juxtaposition of villians doing mundane things like shopping, plus all the cameos of older villians, too (like the guy from POP), and Father popping all that popcorn and so on, but I don't really go for exceedingly action-oriented eps. So during the whole chase, I was kinda "eh." Hoagie's entrance was cool, though, and I loved that they stopped him mid-yee.
And the ending! When I saw Nightbrace buying the cereal, I thought he was a closet cereal lover, but then he just wanted to destroy them.
Random thought: I want to hear the Rainbow Munchies jingle!

LUNCH - Oh my God. I've always liked Lizzie, but...wow. I officially love her now. XD She's such a domineering jerk! Nigel is so whipped. Anyhoo...I really enjoyed this episode. All the Robid Hood refs were pretty funny and Lydia's cameo was great. I love that woman. <3 I must've laughed out loud at least five times during this ep. Although the ep didn't really have an important plot, I thoroughly enjoyed it. And Lizzie's final speech to Nigel just about made me spit out my milk - I was dying laughing.
Score: 8.5/10
--------------------------
MUNCHIES - Hm, this was random. This ep was certainly all action, no plot - but, it was good, clean fun. The truce over a box of cereal was...odd, but it was a good twist. Silly Knightbrace.
Score: 5/10

LUNCH - It was pretty cute. I loved the part when Numbuh 2's grandmother said, "You might want to get out of here, sweetie," to Lizzie. ^^ I think that Lydia was probably a lot like Lizzie when she was young.
MUNCHIES - I mostly liked this episode. My favorite part was when Spankulot got flung into the garlic bin. The thing that I didn't like about this episode was Numbuh 2's puns. Normally, I think they're funny and usually wittier than what I can cook up, but here, his puns were about as clever as a five-year-old's. I mean, puns on "cool"... Wow, never heard those before. And then Numbuh 2 started laughing and explaining his joke, which is something that really bothers me. He did it Op. HUGS too, and it bothered me then too. Eep, a lot of ranting. I liked most of this episode. "Rainbow Munchies" is a really cute name for a cereal.
