Running Time: 5:28
Summary: Ethan is jealous of the fact that, when your life revolves around video games instead of human interaction, a robot can literally do everything you do in a much more efficient fashion. After seeing how it ends, I really wish I could just say "violence ensues" again.

The opening scene's pretty fast. This whole thing's pretty fast, actually, which is why you guys get two reviews so quickly. Hell, I can sum it up in two images, and this text is just here to provide a buffer between them. As far as the introductions go, it's not a bad one. Then again, this is one out of THREE so far, and anything would beat the first. My standards are not high here.

I'm going to assume you're all of resaonable IQ here. Those two images pretty much tell you what jokes were made in the opening of this episode. If you have to ask, just slowly look at one, then the other, until it hits you. Do not take a break until it does. Keep looking, the food will wait.
Now that we've left behind the slow class, let's get down to it - you guys keep telling me these get worse by episode 8, but this episode ends with Ethan fucking a vacuum. I can't wait to see how they top that, honestly, but let's just try another new format here. I don't like repeating what I do in each review, which is why you're punished by new styles every time. Today, we're using the classic "thumbnail theatre" idea. Let's see how Blogger's wacky formatting fucks this up, just like the last few entries! (I swear to god, for those who have never used Blogger, the entries look so much better when I hit "preview" while making them.) And now we pick up after the intro...

Just to clarify that I was not making that up. That's the last thing you see before the aforementioned sounds.
You can expect to wait a little longer for the next one of these. The fact that we're apparently going to surpass appliance-boning worries me.

jesus christ you are a brave man. maybe it's just me, but i kind of see Family Guy expressions in this fucking series. well, with any luck eventually these will stop hurting.
a robot???THATS WACKY
i still can't believe that Blind Ferret thinks theres a future in animating webcomics. most webcomics don't translate into cartoons well at all.
Buckley needs to take a writing class or, you know, listen to an average human conversation.
the sad thing is. I actually found the Buckley insertion getting hit in the nuts with paintballs kinda funny. but maybe thats becuase I watched the rest of the episode free online, and that just reminded me how much I hate that motherfucker.
Episode five is probably the highpoint of the series (or at least the first eight), for two main reasons:
1.) It's the only episode that you can't completely predict from the opening thirty seconds.
2.) If you take out the Blind Ferret animations and credit sequences, the actual content runs something like one-minute fifty seconds.
It's still not, y'know, funny. But you don't want to die during it.
Jesus what is wrong with you, the animations fail so much that they could give you cancer. no one would blame you if you dont review the rest
I know I'm going to regret asking this...but why did he call her a robot fucker? Did she show too much pro-robot support, or not enough support for Ethan's special brand of dumbassery?
All I can imagine while reading your excellent summary of this episode is some Andy Dick character pitching the original storyboard to the producers and saying "wow, that's whacky!" after every frame.
And that's terrible.

The conversation was basically "The robot beats me at games!" "He's a robot, dumbass." "ROBOTFUCKER!"
