Robotboy S3E12: Traffic Slam & Tragic Magic

This time, I'm presenting another Robotboy review.

75. Traffic Slam.

Written by: Larry Hama.

Aired: UK: 14 November 2007. US: 21 June 2008.

While being stuck in traffic, the villains Kamikazi and Affenkugel try to come around to get Robotboy.

Tommy, Lola and Goose singing to get on everyone's nerves.

So Kamikazi and Constantine are in front of Dwight.

Constantine got a nice shirt.

Dwight and airbag!

Klaus and Ludwig behind Tommy's family car!

This must be such a clever Kamikazi disguise.

Deb kick Lola.

This sure was a hilarious episode! Kamikazi and Affenkugel in the same episode! What will they think of next? The traffic jam was a clever plot device too, making Kamikazi and Affenkugel go after Robotboy at the same time. I found a scene where Lola's panties weren't drawn on, yet later, she is wearing them. You know, for kids. And man was Deb a Cookie Monster here! Gus sure kept getting carsick here, causing him to throw up over Kamikazi's truck and to trick Klaus into getting vomit! This episode was clever overall, incorporating 4 major villains in the same episode.

My rating: 10/10.

76. Tragic Magic.

Written by: Heath Kenny

Aired: UK: 14 November 2007. US: 21 June 2008.

Tommy and Gus visit a magic show featuring Felonious Hexx. When Gus makes fun of him through the show the magician transports him into his magical world where he's going to make Gus suffer.

Here we are. The first proper appearance of my favourite villain, Thelonious Hexx.

Perched elephants!

Ha! Gus can't get his hand down!

Whoa! Now he's Felonious Hexx!

Many Guses!

Gus sawn in half.

Hexx is preparing for revenge.

Funny how this episode aired after Nursing a Grudge, because this was Felonious' proper appearance. And here is how Gus and Hexx became archrivals. I read this was originally going to be a full length episode. Hmm...I wonder how this would've gone if this was a 20 minute episode? Gus sure likes to annoy and heckle the magician, turning him evil. But overall, this episode was clever and magical and it properly introduced my favourite villain from Robotboy.

My rating: 10/10.

Final thoughts:





This episode was overall amazing! Kamikazi and Klaus trying to get Robotboy in a traffic jam, and Hexx becoming Gus' archrival, all due to Gus ruining his magic show. An overall brill episode! And by the way, I'm almost finished with Season 3!
