New Xaiver on Adult Swim Fix tonight and Sunday night at Midnight on Adult Swim Sundays. The third episode of the show thsi is "Weapons Grade Life".

SYNOPSIS:
Xaiver comes to the rescue of a curious youngester trying to get in over his heart trying to impress his father. Things nearly blow up in they're faces, but Xaiver comes to some quick think and tasty treats to avert catasphrohpe."

REVIEW:
One of the lamer episodes of the series, which hasnt' even all too good. I mean since when is Xaiver so purposley mean to try and insult a crippled kid without even being properly insulted back? Seems OOC and this show is only three episodes old. Also the weird random humor didn't really work for me this time around, besides the very slow explosion (which was already done much better in Invader Zim anyway), Xaiver driving along town, the guy who gave very poor directions and the end wher the kid has to kill his own explosion father. In truth a very poor ep since the rest of it just felt like an attempt to be funny but didn't try reach, no matter how many times they echoed it into the background. Sadly this show even at worst is overall better then say Tim and Eric's best ep but I don't talk enough about Tim and Eric to say anymore other then this one wasn't very good but would be good compared to them.

Enjoy everyone!

This episode was awesome. I couldn't stop laughing at Xavier driving around asking where the lake was. And it had one of the best ending lines I've heard yet:

"They say when you die, you sh** your pants. When I die, I'm going to sh** my heart."

More great lines:

"Oh, nothing, I just ate the heart of an explosion."

"Your son just showed me his private places and now I'm going to them to you."

"I guess your brain isn't as dumb as your legs. Just don't go entering your legs in any spelling bees. Might get stung."

"I'm going to motor. Gotta take a float on a glote boat in Lake Just Desserts."

That episode was hilarious. I didn't like the ending with all the god stuff, but other than that, I had no gripes. Really warming up to this show. 4.5/5

Ugh, I hope Xavier isn't gonna turn into DJ Jesus. It seemed out of character of him to make fun of a crippled kid.

It picked up at the end when he was looking for the lake.

So I have to say that out of the 3 episodes, this one was the least best. But it's still great.

I thought this episode was enjoyable, the whole idea of a living explosion is really original and this episode had alot of funny one liners. I noticed they used alot of foreshadowing in this episode too like when the kids father was in the bakery talking to the women about the cakes. It was also kinda strange watching the kid cut out the father/explosion heart and the Einstein joke was genius. ;)

I thought that him "defending" the cripple while inadvertantly bashing him was hilarious. I liked how the "bullies" were the people actually defending the cripple.

Funny episode, novel concept, and original execution with both dialog and situations. Xavier continues to be the only Adult Swim series I look forward to at the start of every new week (the others come in around friday or saturday).

A+

What's Wahakamana?

"Let me get those facial abrasions sutured."

Healing with the power of prayer.

"There's more to la-iffe than la-iffe."

Chickenman horselegs has issues.

Quick to profit on the Eversplosion

Aww. Explosions have feelings too.

Does anyone know how to get to the lake? the lake...the lake...the lake...

"Don't enter your legs in any spelling bees...might get stung."

I hope you sxxx your heart too.

You know, I hated the first episode and didn't see the second. But this one was hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing.

You're welcome (see my response to your post in episode 1 thread).

The reason this is funny and not OOC is because Xavier thinks he's being helpful.

You know, PFFFR has a very unique style of dialog and delivery that's like nothing else I've seen. It's fast-paced and very random, almost like stream-of-consciousness, but they manage to make it make sense somehow, and you can actually follow it (if you can keep up with it). It's kind of like Aqua Teen or 12 oz. Mouse on speed, crack, and steroids all at once.
