VB Episode Guide @ Wizardworld.com

Post by missy_misery » Sat Jan 13, 2007 10:45 am

There's a pretty darn good VB guide over @ Mantis-Eye, but Wizardworld.com's got some exclusive commentary from Doc, Jackson and the crew - they shoot down the idea of Doc V and Doctor GF having done anything in MLC, for one.  Plus some insights into VB!Jonny Quest, the origins of Doctor O and the Monarch, and more!

/stops shilling for Wizardworld.com

In the article this is extracted from (the December issue of Toyfare Magazine), BTW, Jackson talks about a Live-Action VB movie, which would feature minor characters, since they're "less set" in the minds of VB fans.

EPISODE 17: Escape to the House of Mummies Part II
Summary: While Brock, Hank and Dean are left with Edgar Allan Poe, Caligula and Sigmund Freud to fend off the murderous Osiris Cult across time, Dr. Venture gets caught up in a shrinking contest with Dr. Orpheus.

Doc Hammer: “I love that episode, but it’s not well-liked on the Internet. I think that there are people who watch TV and don’t feel the urge to insult it or say how they could have done it better. Therefore, it is my theory that the episode appeals to the people that don’t talk about it on the Internet. “
I've said it before and I'll say it again, INTERNET PEOPLE ARE STUPID.

This episode is an ingenious all-time classic.

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was Us, what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do bad things. - Jingo, Terry Pratchett

Hear hear, I agree.  That episode is hilarious.

Very interesting commentary on the eps!  I like the fact that the Monarch was supposed to be a random one-off character left over from the days of The Tick.

Cool find, Missy!  You always bring us the VB goods.
I love how Jackson and Doc are really nice about telling fans things we want to know, plus more.  They are really cool guys.

Yeah, and another vote for that episode being hilarious.

*bows* it helps that I'm a ToyFare Magazine nut, and they apparently really appreciate VB as a whole.

I feel for Jackson at this point.  People keep begging him for teeshirts and posters, and Turner's sitting on their hands doing nothing at the moment, apparently.

EFTHOM isn't the worst episode by far - makes me wonder what the most popular episode IS, according to Teh_Intranetz.

Who cares? The internet is a silly place.

I realise the irony of using the internet to say this.
Our choicest plans have fallen through, our airiest castles tumbled over, because of lines we neatly drew and later neatly stumbled over.

Mostly for curiosity's sake, actually.  *contemplates making a "favorite episode thread"*
