Escape from Planet Klongo

"Escape from Planet Klongo" is a strong penultimate chapter for season four. Apart from featuring plenty of laughs as per usual, this episode shines a brighter spotlight on the friendship between Charles and Oliver, motion-capture spandex and all. If I've had one issue with this season, it's that Mabel doesn't seem to have much of her own story. I do hope the finale gives her a bit more to work with or at least set up going forward. Even so, however, it was nice to see Jane Lynch given a slightly bigger role in a string of flashbacks, and the surprise guest star toward the end does not disappoint. On the whole, "Planet Klongo" is another delightful installment that sets up the finale with a truly suspenseful cliffhanger.
