Threshold Digest Vol. 2
My bitterly sarcastic and caustic sense of humor drives people away at least as much as it attracts them. My disdain for pets and pet ownership makes people think that I’m peculiar at best and a heartless, inhuman monster at worst. My day was long, boring, and humid. I read a little. I downloaded The Venture Bros. season premiere and laughed. I was too lazy to call about switching cable companies. This gag will get old in a hurry.

Yes, it was a great episode, well worth even the additional wait.
I found the scene of The Monarch waking up to King Gorilla(Kingorilla?) attempting, without success, to rape him especially funny...because, you know, there's nothing funnier than rape, right? I mean, right? Right?
*Cough*
Ummm...anyway, good stuff all around.
You couldn't help but feel bad for poor Dr. Orpheus.
Scott read in an interview with the show's creator that he'd originally intended for the boys to die in every episode, but then South Park came along, so he scrapped that idea. It was fun to get to see a hint of that in the flashbacks, though. After all, nothing could be funnier than watching teenage boys get killed over and over again.
Right?
Seriously, it was good stuff. Good, disturbing, completely twsted stuff.
I loved the multiple jabs at Rusty's complete ineptitude by Jonas' immediate success. First, he finishes all but two of Rusty's government contracts, leaves one already half-done for Rusty, then jets off to his island with a hot babe and a few doctorates in tow. You gotta wonder where Rusty learned to clone the boys in the first place with his obvious lack of super science skills.
Well, he has demonstrated some ability in the past, it's just that he lacks discipline and focus. Oh, and he pops pills.
Even so, I don't know that Hank and Dean can really count as a testament to his skills as a super scientist. Or on second thought, maybe they're the perfect testament.
Oh, and Jonas, Jr. actually jetted off with two hot chicks.
