Hmmm, looks like TGAoBaM is finally doing a 2 segment, 11 minute story structure instead of a 3 segment, 7 minute story structure. Even with the two parters (like "Brownievil") it was still 3 segments, but it looks like this will be diffrent. I'll comment more after seeing the episodes.

The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy Episode Review of "Who Killed Who?"/"Tween Wolf"

"Who Killed Who?" Hmmm, so this episode was instead of a 2 segment, 11 minute story structure it had a 7 minute segment ("Tween Wolf") and a 14 minute segment, which was this one. Anyway, it was good all the same, but seemed a lot diffrent then the regular Grim episodes. More focus on story structure then on jokes, although there were some good ones (espically funny was Grim telling on how he lost his dog to the Mrs Doolep's yard of no return and posting find me signs for him anyway). I also really like how Mrs Doolep managed to beat Grim in everything including managing to avoid death. However, there were some OOC moments (Billy seemed more crueler then usual, not letting Mandy play with him and Irwin, and Mandy being scared of the house and Mrs. Doolep) but oh well. I give this a B.

"Tween Wolf"- An episode much truer to the regular Grim story structure, but still only good not great. The dog show and Grim trying to pull a werewolf out weren't really that funny, but Billy having Irwin (aka Sprinkles) as a pet was funny, espically saying that his glasses make him a genius. BTW. Notice how Irwin said "Quart of Milk, Loaf of Bread, Stick of Butter" just like Johnny Bravo said in one episode of his. I also give this segment a B.

Overall I would give this episode a B, a fairly good but not that great episode.

who killed who: a very interesting segment. i was never very sure about doolep untill the very end. nice touch with seeing grim in the painting proveing how she beat death ( or probebly according to grim "cheated" :)

tween wolf: a bit of a homage to rockey and bullwinkle there with the pulling out of the hat trick

mandy: ( ala rockey) again?

that and irwins " loaf of bread, quart of milk,stick of butter" thats been in many cartoons ( johnny bravo included)

best part of the whole thing is mandys

" my eyes!"

otherwise it was a mediocre part.

TGAoBaM

That just looks odd. :shrug:

Anyway, I didn't see the new episode just yet. I pressed record at 7:00 and fell asleep. I woke up at about 8:45 and realized that I never stopped recording. :sweat:

"Who Killed Who" Probably the weakest segment in a while. I agree that Billy was very mean. Out of 5 stars, I give it 2 stars.

"Tween Wolf" This was better than "Who Killed Who." Highlights included "My Eyes!" and Billy's dad. Out of 5 stars, I give it 3 stars.
