EGGSHAUSTION:
Chuck goes to retrieve the eggs while Bomb is busy reading a comic book, and in the meantime, Rovio toys with us again.

If you don’t like spoilers, that is all I’m going to say about the plot. The basic plot/twist will be put up when Rovio puts the episode up again.

People on the title card, you are simply geniuses.

(Everything italicised below this line is gibberish to not reveal spoilers to those who missed the episode the day it accidentally premiered. Use this tool to decode, making sure to select Key 13 from the dropdown.)

NOTES:

– The Toons.TV description is spoileriffic as usual, but I have to say that it’s quite amusing.
– Bomb and superheroes again.
– When Chuck is going through Pig City, yrnivat n genvy bs sver, the animation on the pigs jura gurl oevat bhg gur znefuznyybj fgvpxf is, oddly, just still images of the pigs rotating. It would be a simple fix, just animate a few more frames.
– Watch the Fantasia short “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” before (re)/watching this, and listen for similar musical scores: The tune that plays when gur guveq gevb bs cvtf jvgu rttf nccrnef is similar to the motif of the enchanted brooms marching.
– The scene where Puhpx tbrf ubzr pelvat nsgre snvyvat gb ergevrir gur rttf is quite effective, and I can relate when V ybfg fbzrguvat qrne gb zr.
– Speaking of snvyvat gb ergevrir gur rttf, Cebcf gb gur perngvir grnz sbe znxvat gur fbhc fcynfu jura gur zvkre snyyf ba gur “rttf” ybbx yvxr na rssvat OYBBQ FCYNGGRE.
– Bomb’s jaw drop reminds me of Crane’s impressive one from the Kung Fu Panda films.
– The Return of the “Chuck Time” Butterfly!

Review: An all-around excellent episode. It felt strange watching it the first time, and for good reason (Lbh jrer orvat frg hc). Props all around. And how the whole shebang is executed (Action/Gag-wise) is nice, too.

Overall: 4.65/5
(I wanted to give a 4.75/5, but I figured that Porkula is better than this episode, even after all of the praise showered on this. After a few viewings, it got a little dull, probably because of there not being a lot of gags. This leaves “Mind the Pony” in First, “Porkula” in Second and “Eggshaustion” in Third place for the best episode this season.)

NEXT EPISODE: Short and Special (Coming Friday the 25th).
