Well, at least Zipper wasn’t in charge of everything this time, and I could follow this episode. it’s always so refreshing to hear the theme song. It just takes me back. I would totally relive my childhood if I could.

8) Krapopolis (Hulu)
English Audio Description?: No
The thing is, FOX has a solid three animated show lineup, and they are trying to find that fourth. I’m six episodes in, and this show can have a few laughs, but if I had to put it against The Great North, there is no comparison. I think they already have a great 4th show. I’m not sure what to do with this.

This is a tough one. it’s very borderline. There is a little bit of fighting that makes this hard to truly appreciate, but it’s one of the easier episodes, as the gang get paired up with foreign exchange students. At the same time, a mommy is in town. Yes, this eventually lands to Xander not having a clue, but this mommy is one of the more sympathetic villans this show has created. Also, it’s the first appearance of Oz.
