Let's Begin!

[Toon Manic]

I love it! It shows numbuh 3 toughness in it.

[Freeze Sabre]

3 words: I WANT REVENGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Behonkiss]

OK, I give up.

If you did not like Operation: L.I.C.E. at all, you have no soul.

That kind of episode is what makes me confident that KND can evolve into something as good as PPG; Heck, just make the other episodes as good as this one and I'll be satisfied.

Oh, and L.I.Z.Z.I.E.? Not as great as L.I.C.E., but still good. Finally some character development for Numbah One, and a great vocal performance by Ben Diskin. I also liked the hitting thing.

"I just said 'Women', and-OW! Stop that!"

Operation: L.I.C.E

The Delightful Children from Down the Lane show up again; haven't seen them since N.O.P.O.W.U.H.. Liked the opening sequence with Numbah Five versus Sir Toasty or whatever they called him.

I wonder if there's a moral subplot in that this whole mess never would have happened if Numbah Five hadn't decided to steal the chips from them... Nah.

And Numbah Three goes super hardcore Rambo style. I assume they repaired all her poor plushies afterwards...

Was this a spoof of the Alien series?

I liked the little scene at the very end. I wonder if they're establishing a pattern where the KND always turn the tables on the DCfDtL at the end. (And I think I need a better acronym for them than DCfDtL...)

Operation: L.I.Z.Z.I.E.

Remember the character development I asked about for Numbah One last Friday? It's heeeereee...

I kind of like Lizzie, oddly enough. I first thought she could be one of the DCfDtL in disguise, as I noticed a certain resemblance... Thankfully, they didn't take that angle.

Boyfriend helmet? Just how technologically advanced is this neighborhood the KNDs live in?

Liked the symbolism with 'Nigie' going between adoring puppy mode and mad dog mode on Lizzie's command. Plus the fight scene was pretty cool. And the ending wasn't what I expected at all.

Are we going to see more of Lizzie as the series develops? Would be interesting...

[Numbuh 4]

I missed L.I.Z.Z.I.E., i'll have to catch it at 10:00. Bro's friends using Gamecube. To Behonkiss: Yes, I have a soul! Loved L.I.C.E.!

My fantasy come true, I AM buttered toast!

It's all good...

L.I.C.E- The best scene is of course when #3 goes postal over the sight of her dearly departed toys. I mean who can't resist a sweet & adorable little girl on a violent warpath to avenge her wittle toys? And yes it is a spoof of "Alien"-like movies and its by all means a good one.

L.I.Z.Z.I.E- I loved this one, I mean who doesn't want to see good old fashioned romantic torture? It was quite a treat to see #1 holding hands with a girl and how the rest of the KND have an absolute field day on the poor baldy. (And on how #3 & 5 kept smacking #4 was a nice touch.) The writing on this episode was well done. And I wonder if the series' writers will try to truly please the 3/4 fans with an episode like this? ;) Okay it'll most likely won't happen but it could be intresting.

But still this is quite possibly my 2nd fave episode of the series, and yes I by all means do hope that they write more episodes like this.

I enjoyed LICE very much but felt that Lizzie was a bit cliche once they introduced the boyfreind helmat. But then again it reminded me of the Happy helmat from Ren and Stimpy.

Best parts; Numbah 3 and her grief over the plushies. looks like she's developing a set a strong morals between this and Office. When she's got something top priority in her mind she sees to it until it's finished.

Numbah 4 and his ranting and getting beaten up by the girls for his comments on women.

And numbah 2 being a dork with his action hero lines

[Nik Jam]

Wow. Both of those were awesome. A for both.

Thankfully unlike Robot Jones and Grim and Evil, this show premires with 13 episodes instead of 6. Hopefully these 6 weren't the best though.

[Samurai Rocko]

This series keeps getting better and better. I thought I was gonna hate the show, but it has quality.

[animechick]

I liked both!!

[Tea]

Hi, I'm new. :)

Operation: L.I.C.E.

Pretty good! I liked the beginning and the Delightful Children. I didn't think Numbuh 3's flipping out scene was funny. But still, it was one of the better episodes. I give it a 4/6!

Operation: L.I.Z.Z.I.E.

Not as good as Lice. Numbuh 4 was funny, and I'm glad it was centered around Numbuh 1. But I didn't get his relationship with Lizzie... Oh well, 3/6.

[DanniB]

hey, did anyone record this episode? I'd love to have the whole numbah four "lice rant" for a quote, could anybody type the whole thing out if they did?

if not, i don't mind. I just love that numbah 4.:knd4:

[JTurner954]

I only saw the L.I.C.E episode, and I didn't like it. The best thing about it (and the entire show) are the acronyms. From there, it got ridiculous. The solution to getting the lice was the cheese? Boring. The end was predictable with the lice in the helmet of the evil child (the second best thing about this show are the different villains). Major letdown from the office episode from last week. 3 stars.

A person who has no soul is someone who didn't like at least one of the LOTR movies. Not liking this show is normal since this show is more for children than adults (at times, it feels like a child wrote this on his/her take on adults and bullys). Even the ad line said "Either you're in or you're old", which sums it up pretty nicely.
