Description

Each and every week, your hosts revisit an episode of the series in the order in which they first premiered. They discuss their favorite jokes, gags, and discuss all the cultural references they can find! Each episode is given a "Water Tower Rating" by the hosts. How many water towers will this episode get? This  nineteenth episode first features the Warners going toe to toe with Death and then we learn how the Hip Hippos moved from the jungle to the city. Meatballs or Consequences Wakko is in an meatball eating contest. Unfortunately he dies when he eats one meatball too many. Yakko and Dot don't want to be separated from their brother so they follow Wakko to the underworld. They then spend the rest of the episode driving Death crazy! This episode features some great jokes and salutes to filmaker Ingmar Bergman. It also features one of Kelly's favorite sayings, "How Spielbergian!" As usual we make connections to other movies and franchises in our conversation. "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "The Force Awakens", "The Exorcist", "The Princess Bride", "Back to the Future" and even "Masters of the Universe" are all mentioned. Dot's Poetry Corner Next, Dot gets groovy with her first poem about Little Miss Muffet. A Moving Experience Finally, we are treated to a prequel of sorts. How did the Hip Hippos end up in the city? Gina Embryo (a parody of Joan Embery) tries in vain to keep them in the jungle.  Twitter Poll The announcer joins us from Pankot Palace! Sounds like he's eating some interesting food!
