The strongest episode of the season was followed by one of the weaker ones, imho. Yes, this episode was the second act of a three act play, and was setting the audience up for the finale, but that doesn't mean it should be weaker. When they did the Black Friday trilogy, every episode was strong. That being said, the part about the hunger strike from eating ***** was fantastic. And I do appreciate that they've dug into the ridiculous Missouri situation twice now.
Yeah that part was awesome too. But a couple funny lines does not a great episode make. I just thought it was a letdown following the best episode of the season. When the first episode of a three-parter is as strong as last week's episode was, you kinda figure the whole thing is going to be amazing.
My ranking of the episodes so far: 1. Sponsored content 2. City part of town 3. You're not yelping 4. Tweek x Craig 5. Where my country gone 6. Stunning and brave 7. Truth and advertising 8. Naughty ninjas 9. Safe space.
As classic as it is, I still take Team America over it every single day of the week. Team America is imho an absolute masterpiece.
I've spoken with others -- whose opinions I respect -- who share your thoughts on the SPtM v. Team America question. And I've also spoken with several people who share my view that Team America isn't just better than SPtM, but is one of the best movies ever made. So I think this is a question where reasonable minds can differ.
I have a hard time choosing. I think whichever one I watched last is the one I would choose. Both are great.
That's certainly not an unreasonable opinion. I could probably talk myself into moving it down to 6. But the "take a gander at tweek's *******" line just caused uproarious laughter, and I really liked that Peter Gabriel song they used - I had never heard it before.
Until the very end. They didn't know how to finish it. Or maybe they're being realistic. But I focking hate PC Principal. Classi, on the other hand....
