Now, that isn't to say Joel and the Bots bring this back up to an awesome episode. They don't. I have never seen this movie in one sit through. I will admit to that. I had to spread this one out over several days, like spreading dog s*** on a pack of crackers. Even then, I could barely keep it down. It has been noted this is one of the few Joel era episodes where the Host Segments were intentionally not related to the movie, because the movie is about nothing. They are pretty funny though, but nothing saves this. The few good riffs don't linger around long enough to cover up the horribleness that is this movie. Maybe with a better opening short, maybe this would be a average episode, but no we didn't even get that. Only watch this episode if this isn't your first rodeo. 2.5/10
Trivia: The Johnny Longtorso name is a call back/reference to a riff made during Women of the Prehistoric Planet
Favorite Riffs (Short):
*As they are entering the theater*
Joel: You got your circus on my ice!
Crow: You got your ice on my circus!
Servo: Too bad things that go WORSE together.
*We get a shot of two women dancing ontop of podiums, wearing pink skirts*
Narrator: No circus is complete without pink candy floss!
Servo (Singing to the tune played): These two girls make quite a pair, they both come from your worst nightmare. They will haunt your soul forever and now when you see pink you're gonna think we're doomed. They are agents of Sat-
Joel (laughing): Stop that, Tom.
*A 'fawn' dances around on the ice*
Joel: You know guys, there's nothing sadder than a gutshot fawn.
Narrator: Suddenly, hunters approach. Frantically, the fawn tries to escape.
Joel: Suddenly, she darts across the highway!
*Crow and Tom make honking noises, followed by a car crash effect*
Narrator: Now the spotlight falls on a world of delicate loveliness.
Crow: And kills them.
