So many get ripped

[MontrealExpos · 10/10 · 15 October 2011]

A hilarious episode. It had me laughing out loud. The greatest thing about it is how many people it ripped on and did it so well. Everyone from Sally Struthers, Christian Missionaries, the CIA, Pat Robertson and his 700 Club, Australians and even the aliens because of their language. My two favorite things in the episodes was the button turning the soundtrack song on/off and Pat Robertson making appeals to his viewers for additional spacecraft upgrades. There was great stuff in the whole episode. It's always fun when the boys team up in an episode. They still ripped on Eric but it's great when they are together for a whole episode fighting for the same good cause. Marvin, the kids, and the Marklar are the good guys and they can understand each other for the most part.
