"Gray Matters" was okay. Interesting dream sequence Jonny has. It's kind of sad to see him turn so old and then be treated that way when he got that Gray hair (which acted kind of evil. Which I guess is one way people see them as). Good thing Mama set him straight though, realizing it was just produced because of his worry of being old. Okay "The Grinch" type ending.

"Double Vision" is worthy due to it's homages. First off, Sniffles was an obvious take off of Quick Draw McGraw's dog of the same name, who would only scout something out for a Doggie Biscuit, and had the same animation when he ate one. (A Pup Named Scooby Doo ripped that off actually, come to think of it). And then when Johnny was playing baseball with the kid and his clothes came falling off, Charlie brown style. Still, not a very funny ep. Oh well. They all can't be.

Although this episode did have a lot of good feelings of the First Season.

- An actual happy ending for Johnny (in most Season Two episodes he was either beat up or smacked or something like that in the end).

- Jonny not totally stupid.

- JB actually able to land a date with a woman.

- The Music Cues defintley felt First Season Inspired.

In what seems to be the norm with the Johnny Bravo episodes of late.. Another pair of decent at best episodes.

Something that has been somewhat annoying is how Johnny seems to worry about his declining looks, whether through age or strength in this season.. The shovelizer from last week, and now a grey hair this week.. Poor Johnny, at least he got those senior citizens discounts.. I liked the grinch like narration at the end about his hair growing 3 times blonder.. "Gray Matters" gets a B-.
The one thing I liked about both episodes was how Suzie was involved in them. She's a good character, meshes well with Johnny.
This one was pretty silly, if only because Johnny is the only one who could pull off something like that.. Following home the wrong woman, thinking he has a brother.. Then his mom and Suzie finding him eventually with the help of the police.. "Double Vision" get a C.

Not just Johnny though. Dexter (of "Dexter's Labaratory") did a similar thing in a Season Two episodes when he was too busy reading in the grocery market to notice he was going with a near identical looking mother and father to they're home while a Dexter-Lookalike went with Dexter's family. Great, so that's another homage in this episode, besides the Quick Draw Mc Graw and Charlie Brown ones already done.
