"Perfect"

By minimew2020, Nov 09, 2007

this episode is so funny that I don't know where to start.

Sione want to go to a ball but his mom won't let him & there some pretty funny stuff like Sione's Mom, the farts in the farts in the background music, & the one that makes me laugh the most is The "Thingy" the mom saw at the school meeting & This is one my favorite episodes of bro'Town & I hope this show will never end

beacause this show has humor in it & it from a trusted network called Link TV & hope season 2 come to the US Soonmoreless

Even worse than the first episode, which is quite an achievement in itself. Still, it took a lot of effort from me personally to watch it all.

"Abysmal"

By The_Womp, May 20, 2006

"Painful to watch" is the absolute perfect way to describe how I feel about this episode.

At least I laughed once in the first episode, so it's obvious from what you're read so far that I didn't laugh once during this episode.

I can't really tell WHEN it was trying to be funny, that's how bad it is.

But then, just when you thought it couldn't get worse, they beat us over the head with the incredibly cliched 'lesson' about how parents should talk to their kids about sex. WOAH! Haven't heard that before!

However, I guess I must thank this episode for two reasons. Firstly, it showed me that it is possible to make an episode worse than the first, and secondly because it was so bad it made me stop watching the series completely.

My advice is simple: avoid at all costs.moreless

ALLUSIONS (3)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Sione sings the soul song "Try A Little Tenderness" at the ball, which has an 80s theme. In the late 80s, there was a popular movie called The Commitments, which featured a group of poor Irish youths who joined a soul band.
  EDIT SHARE
- Mrs Tapili: (catching Sione at the ball) Dead boy walking! This is a reference to the movie Dead Man Walking.
  EDIT SHARE
- Title The episode's title is a nod to the fairy tale Cinderella, in which a girl is mistreated by her stepmother, but ends in the girl marrying Prince Charming after they dance together at the ball.
