Huh. Even though this episode has bad reception, both people who review it think it's amazing.

Anyway, this has got to be my favorite episode of Season 1, and if IDFB wasn't a thing, my favorite episode of the series. It's almost perfect.

The intro, despite setting up one of the worst moments of the series, is great, especially the other parts. One viewing of the best Cake at Stake song later, and it's time for the elimination. They show the votes, and some hilarious ads play, including the iconic Yellow Face eating Purple Face because he's going against the ad and he's purple. The vote count is shown to be in the 700's, so Flower throws some..things...OH #### IT'S SPIDER EGGS!

Before we go, please note all the Recovery Centers have been sold due to budget cuts.

So all the spider eggs chase the contestants. Does the scene take up a huge portion of the episode? Yes. But if you ask me, the scene was perfectly paced provided you ignore that, and it's intense. Flower gets hit by a meteor, Firey gets eaten, and Bubble gets popped. Then, the Announcer deletes the bugs.

Due to everyone being dead, we make it to where the episode gets really funny. It was already great before this, but the rest of this really made it top 2 material. The Announcer clones David, who's immune to bugs, 20 times, making the final 4 variants of David. Also, the Announcer decided not to cancel the show. The Davids keep, surprisingly hilariously and not annoyingly, keep saying "Aw, seriously?" as the Announcer speaks. However, when the Announcer announces that Flower is eliminated with 526 votes, all of the contestants come back. This results in the best joke in the episode, where the Announcer is confused, and Leafy says "We faked our deaths, obviously." After a montage of the previous eliminations, Flower uses the power of mirrors to put a bush and hilariously, the *sun* (that probably won't work) in the TLC. But the laser goes around the world and hits Flower.

The outro is the final part (No #### Sherlock). The Announcer gives everyone anything they want for being the final 3, expect no one gets their voices. Leafy wishes for world peace. Granted! The Announcer thinks the world is peaceful already. Bubble wishes for yoylecake. That doesn't fit in their budget. Firey wishes for his life's earnings back. Announcer already spent it...on their new Recovery Centers! Maybe he has a heart after all-wait he just wanted to repeatedly kill the contestants. But he gets killed and everyone basically kills each other. Eh, that last joke's okay.

I saw it online, and I thought it was okay. The slapstick and humor was pretty good. The main bad thing is that the ending is abrupt. This wouldn't be a big deal, but this would be the last time Looney Tunes shorts premiered regularly! The ending is that Cool Cat literally cuts himself out of the picture then comes out to tell them to Cool it. I feel Cool Cat should be known specifically for this short, as to me, this is the most notable Looney Tunes short of all time. It is the last short, the 1,000th short, and one of, if not the, hardest Looney Tunes shorts to find! It's a multi-gag cartoon, which I didn't expect. Most underrated cartoon of all time. Wait. Atlantis SquarePantis exists.

Fun Fact: This shorts title was reused from a 1938 (31 years before this short) Porky Pig cartoon.

That's right, I don't care if it's stretched out all in one gag, it's funny. Highlights include: 1. The Coyote getting cooked by a club and landing on the ground only to teleport back up three times at Granny's 2. The Coyote getting his crotch hit by a branch, which ends up getting a Boulder rolling 3. A gag after the credits where the poor Coyote teleports on train tracks and gets hit by a train

Best of CGI 4/4.

4/10. Most of the gags are unfunny, especially the one where he paradives into a tornado, which, might I mind you, is the most unfunny thing yet. At least make it so the joke doesn't seem out of nowhere. Maybe make it so he accidentally fell into somewhere where a disaster is happening. Or even better! MAKE HIS PARACHUTE NOT WORK. The snow machine gag is pretty bad too. Unlike "Freeze Frame", the snow was necessary. Here, it's only there to make the gag have more sense. Expect it still doesn't. The pacing is also terrible. The worst short, and, personally, the only bad one. 4/10.

The episode is an 8/10 without the ending, but the ending loses a point. Grampa makes a speech about needing to be cranky. Suddenly, the dose somehow makes no effect. It also takes 17 minutes to show us those eyes. Sure, they're disturbing, but that's no excuse to finally set up the plot when there are only 5 minutes left.

Otherwise a great episode but that ending...7/10.

Action Packed is action packed like the title says. It's also funny, especially when Timmy says you have to be 13 or older to see the horror.

Smarty Pants suggests you are more boring (like the episode) and self-centered the smarter you are. Yes, it disencorages being smart. Like I said before, it's boring. Plus. A. J. Is a jerk to Timmy. So he fails a lot, you don't have to rub it in his face for it just because you get A's in elementary school.
