  • Time traveling to ancient Egypt!

    "Superb"
    I think the plot could have been more creative, but the animation sure was awesome! :) I liked seeing everyone in their Egyptian outfits. I was also glad to see Danny use the ghostly wail and proud of him for how he tricked "King Tuck" into giving up the Septer. ^_^ Go, Danny! But I think Tucker should have at least learned his lesson in the end (not to be so stubborn and selfish) and that this episode could have had a better storyline overall. But at least it had time travel in it! Now I think of this every time I read about Egypt.
  • Not my favorite episode...

    "Great"
    This was an okay episode, but it wasn't my favorite. I don't like Hotep Ra and I don't care for the sphinx. My favorite scenes include: Danny and the gladiator fighting in the Circus Maximus, Danny fighting the sphinx and the other ghost animals, and the scene where the ghost dog was dragging Danny across the sand and his pants were coming off (lol). My least favorite scenes include: The debate between Tucker and Dash and all the scenes where Tucker is yelling at Danny and Sam because they were changing his campaign. They were only trying to help, he didn't have to be so mean.
  • OK so it wasn't the beeest but it is still Danny Phantom is it not?

    "Superb"
    I like when Sam is trapped under the coffin lid. "I love a coffin as much as the next Goth, but the novelty's wearing thin." The episode just did not have much to offer to me. Other ones have been better. It is still Danny Phantom so that will never change. In that case I will always watch the episode if it is on. But get more excited when other ones are on. I love the history part of it because I love history. But I do not Tuckers friends would not listen to him. And I did not like how Dash would pound people if they did not vote for him or cheer.
  • Nothing special happened.

    "Superb"
    Well in this episode Tucker turnes evil. The students and teachers at Casper High get sucked back in time to ancient Egypt and have to work for him (Tucker). Danny battles a spinks (sp?) and an evil mummy. In the end it all turns out ok. Pretty boring right. I didn't care too much for this one. I've seen better episodes then this on Nick and Danny Phantom.
  • At a meuseum, Tucker finds out that he is a descendent of an ancient Egyptian pharoah. A ghost servant appears and says Tucker is master, but he is actually evil and using Tucker. Danny must save him from his own anger from not being listened to.

    Another episode where Tucker causes problems just because he gets mad at something. Last time he was jealous, and this time he was mad at not being heard or listened to. Still, I thought it was okay. It wasn't exactly the same scenario. Oh, but we got to see the ghost wail again. Too bad it wasn't effective against that sphinx. BTW, that sphinx is the exact same one from FOP in Abracatastrophe when Crocker made it come to life. Again it proved to be a powerful thing. I thought this ep wa kinda funny with the whole mini-skirt Fridays and toenail clippings. Not my favorite storyline, but I thought it was above-average.
  • I hate to say it but...

    5.5
    "Mediocre"
    I could not stand this episode, it just seemed to unoriginal and basiclly overall rubbish!!! I\'m a but fan of Danny Phantom but the storyline, plot and everything else except Danny made me want to puke. This episode was badly written and just a load of mummy movies plus Tucker honestly almost every other episode was so original but this was terrible. They could have redeemed themselves by giving Danny a new power (that always makes episodes better) but they couldn\'t even do that. This episode makes me ashamed to be a fan...well ok it doesn\'t but it wasn\'t a very good episode.



    Overall it was trash
  • Tucker runs for Student Council President, but no one pays attention until he receives a minion named Hotep Ra.

    7.9
    "Good"
    While Tucker is frustrated that no one is paying attention to his Student Council President campaign, including his campaign managers, Danny and Sam, they take a trip to the museum. There, they see a shrine of an ancient pharaoh who looks just like Tucker! When Tucker’s reflection appears in an ancient mirror, a minion of the pharaoh named Hotep Ra appears to serve Tucker! He later gives him the king’s Scarab Scepter, which causes Tucker to behave like a tyrant, where he sends the whole class to ancient Egypt during the debate, where Tucker is the king of them all! But Ra has his own plans in store for Tucker and his realm…



    From the commercial, this episode did look interesting, though I wasn’t sure I would think much of it. I actually had to miss it for a Los Angeles Lakers-New Jersey Nets game, but I recorded it and watched it later. When it was done, I found KT to be a fairly decent episode.



    The opener was pretty good in some parts, not so much in others. I thought Tucker was treated a bit unfair when trying to get people to vote for him, and it did tend to continue throughout the course of the episode. Danny and Sam still did support Tucker’s campaign, just in their own way. Danny’s platform of “Mini-skirt Fridays” was good for a laugh as well. But I didn’t really like it that much when Tucker tried to point out a ghost, but wasn’t listened to.



    I had fears that for Tucker, this would get to be too much like WyW. But I felt his reasons for behaving like he did were more understandable, and again, not entirely his fault. There were plenty of times where I thought he was treated unfairly at the beginning, at the start of the museum scene, and during the debate. But there were also times where I thought he was being unfair as well. He wanted people to listen to him, but perhaps he should also do more listening as well. Danny and Sam wanted to help his campaign, but he just wanted to do it his way and wouldn’t listen. His yelling at them got on my nerves in some parts, and I really didn’t like his attitude that much after getting the scepter, under mind control or not.



    Danny and Sam were both done very nice in this episode. While they didn’t pay Tucker a lot of attention that much, they still wanted to help him, and their lack of listening to him was not done in a jerky way. They were IC in being bugged by Tucker’s attitude as well.



    I found Hotep Ra to be a rather cool villain. The plot with a king’s servant wanting to overthrow him was a tad clichéd, but this was done a lot better than it could’ve been. He did have a pretty evil vibe to him, and I liked that he was able to keep Tucker in the dark about it all. His little shouts of “I am risen!” were funny, along with what Tucker said after the second time.



    The second half trip to Ancient Egypt got to be pretty cool. I’ve studied a lot about ancient cultures and I know the story of Passover, so I was able to relate to it just a bit. It was pretty cool to see for the most part, especially the chariot races, and Tucker’s laws were funny. Funniest of all that was when Star and Paulina were tending to his feet. And I also liked Dash’s comment about not doing manual labor until thirty.



    Once again, the music, the humor, the action, and the animation were all done in a truly splendid way. Most of the humor came from the Egyptian scenes. Perhaps the funniest of the whole episode was when Tucker called Sam Samantha and she got mad about it. I never envisioned her liking her full name. As for the action, another brilliant job. I LOVED seeing Danny use his ghostly wail again! Too bad it didn’t work on his prime target, the sphinx.



    But for some reason, things were a little boring in some parts. I felt like I wasn’t able to get into it as well as most episodes I’ve seen, and I think the last episode this happened was Identity Crisis, which I still believe as the worst episode of Season 2. As for KT. The theme with the election was plenty clichéd. Guy who tries to talk about the issues, no one listens, his competition is a bully, he makes them listen with threats. Not very enjoyable for me.



    As for the sphinx, I found it pretty cool that Tucker got it to obey his command. Unlike that squeaky toy in SoG that calmed down the dog, this actually flowed with the episode in general instead of just being thrown in there. And the ending was done nice as well. For reasons even I’m not sure of, I liked that Tucker made sure nobody remembered the trip, and also that he dropped out of the race. And again, I found it funny when he started blathering how cool he was, and when Star and Paulina chased him off at the end. Two episodes in a row, huh?



    All in all, I found King Tuck to be a good episode. Could’ve been a lot better, but still alright. I actually thought this to be better at first, but after going through it a few more times, I realized it was somewhat sub-par of the standards of most DP episodes.



    7.9/10. A minor setback for the series, but a very short one, IMO.
  • the worst episode of danny phantom ever!!!!

    1.0
    "Abysmal"
    wow i thought this episode was boring. it didnt interest me. it literally was "painful to watch"! i almost fell asleep while watching this episode. this was the worst episode EVER!!



    i thought the storyline was dull and interesting. and nothing in this episode was funny. i didnt laugh once. im sure a lot of people out there loved this episode, and i respect that. but i never EVER wanna see it again. BORING.



    the first time i heard this title name for the episode i had a strong feeling that it would be boring. who wouldve though that i was right!
  • Another great Tucker episode

    9.0
    "Superb"
    There is a few Tucker episodes out there. Though, they are all awesome episodes. Even this one.



    Tucker tries to run for student body president, yet he being ignored by everyone, even Danny and Sam. At a museum, Tucker meets Hotep Ra and he becomes Tucker's servant. Little does he know, Hotep Ra plans to rule the town himself. Before the debate, Tucker is given a staff which turns him evil.



    At the debate Tucker transports everyone to ancient egypt and rules as Pharoah Hotep Ra makes a sphinx and plans to use it against the town. Danny tries to fight the sphinx but he can't beat it. Danny frees Tucker from the staff Tucker is back to normal. In the end Tucker makes the sphinx attack Hotep Ra and returns everyone to the school with only Danny, Sam, and Tucker remembering what happened.



    Overall, this episode was enjoyable yet there were a couple things I didn't like. Danny and Sam ignoring Tucker like that seemed a bit OOC for me. I'm also surprised the gohstly wail didn't bring the sphinx down or damage it at all.



    There were a lot of good points though. Tucker as pharoah was hilarious. Tucker controling the sphinx was kind of funny too. Also at the debate when Tucker silenced everyone but going all dark and magical, I kind of cheered for him at first. And I always like Tucker episodes. Hopefully there will be more.
  • Another Tucker turning evil?

    3.2
    "Bad"
    The writers of this show better start some new material because this proves the writers are running out of ideas. A retarded egiptian episode where somehow Tucker suposedly looks like his ancestor (like in a million other cartoons) and the mummy that was freed tries to overload him with too much power to make a sphynx and the mummy would use it to take over the world, and when no one else could stop it (this is the part that really ticked me off) all Tucker had to do was tell the sphynx what to do. I know it's part of the moral, but they could've done a way better job with it.
  • A Tucker episode. While I was watching, I thought; Didn't we see this plotline already?...

    8.9
    "Great"
    A Tucker episode. I'm sure that many Tucker fans out there are supremely happy about the use of this fifth-wheel character. Sometimes he just seems as a supportive character while the main story revolves around the Valerie-Danny-Paulina-Phantom-Sam sort of conflict. Let's face it, Tuck just doesn't get much say during those times. So Tucker has finally set his foot down.



    I find that this episode was rather well thought out. Tucker is (as stated above,) a little ignored sometimes. He's now saying "Listen to me!" through a student-body election plot. Making Tuck an ancient egyptian king was rather fun and in character too.



    However, while I was watching, I thought; Didn't we see this plotline already?... I looked back and found that some of the jokes used here were used in Pirate Radio by danny; "what? did you say something?" and I think that Danny would be more consious to his friends' existence. Sam would be too, in that retrospect. Also, the 'Dash being a bully' thing was completely overused. Sure, he'd pound someone if they didn't vote for him, but Dash is popular, meaning people would be trying to win favor with him anyway.



    I did like the music this episode, and dispite the fact that this episode was about the 'social invisibles', it was also about going power crazy. I'm seeing a trend here- In the episode 'what You Want', Tuck also goes power crazy. Perhaps this may be a problem in the future... maybe, maybe not. I'm going to keep my eye on him, though.



    All in all, it was a good Tucker-based episode. It really got into Tucker's character and social status, and the DP team portrayed him exquisitly. I'm hoping that they'll turn out more episodes like this one; dispite the fact that it was a bit cliche, it really worked the boundaries of the show.
  • A episode that really was more of tuker

    An episode that had the most of tuker in the whole seris. would'nt be on my top five but it was not the worst episode. But it was good. To me it did'nt really explain much but it was very exiting. very. but yes the more the tuker the better
  • A Good and funny Episode ! Some D/S !

    9.1
    "Superb"
    In this ep. Tucker is being ignored by Sam and Danny. Not really ignored, but they don't listen to him is better. Then he gets to be King ! Well, I'll talk about D/S. There was some D/S moments. Sam was really worried about Danny, when she thought he was dead. It was really cute. It made me think of SoG. The whole ep. was about something else, but there was some D/S in it. Which made it really cute. I totally want to see it again. We also get to see people in Egyptian cloths, except Danny. Didn't get to see him in it. And if you watch carefully, when the sphinx is bitting him and running, we can see his boxers. The thing is: he was wearring his ghost suite !
  • Although I liked this eppisode bunches, the stoyline was used in "What you Want".However,there where good points in the eppisode...

    8.0
    "Great"
    This eppisode did not contribute much to the storyline, as the plot "Tuck turns evil" was used in the episode "What you Want." Also,it was rushed. However, I loved the animation in this episode. The scene where Danny was fighting the scorpio was perfect. It looked almost 3D! I loved the design of the Spinx. They captured ancient Eygipt on the nail head! (Thats good.) The refrences to Eygiptian mythology where cool. (Ra turned into a swarm of locust, which is one of the plaugues of Eygipt.) The humor was, well, humorus! For example, Danny and Sam tring to approach diffrent cliques with the campeign. So, the pros out weighed the cons, but the cons took a lot away from the episodes potentail.
  • a very special episode! you can tell tucker loves the power! i love this episode the best of them all! If i were in a danny phantom episode id be his pharo princess! i love tucker now!! hes great as a ruler! tucker i love you! i do love him!

  • Tucker has done it again.

    9.9
    "Superb"
    Not only does Tucker gain respect from his friends and haves them listen, this also marks the first episode where Tucker saves the day. This episode has other fun-filled allusions to other movies like the Mummy whom Hotep Ra was based off of. It even makes an allusion to Butch Hartman's Fairly Odd Parents Movie 1 Abracastraphe where the spinx also appeares in a different form. Two thumbs up for a clever episode. Hotep Ra even immitates the mummy from the movie the Mummy by using locusts. Seems like someone has been watching too much TV! Well Butch, you're not the only one!
  • Go Tucker! After being ignored by his best friends and practically everyone in the entire school, Tucker visits an ancient egypt exhibit with his class and discovers a look-alike Pharaoh. By looking in a mirror, Tucker accidentally awakens the Ph

    9.0
    "Superb"
    IMO, this was one of the best DP episodes. Tucker is finally brought forth out of the shadows. He's no longer just Danny's sidekick, but rather a brain washed "King". We finally found out that Tucker can do more than be the Techno-Geek to help Danny. It's Tuck's time to steal the spotlight.



    After releasing the pharaoh's servent, Tucker gains control of the sceptor that the pharaoh once had and falls victim to it's power. During his candidate speech, Tucker gets tired being ignored and starts to use the sceptor's powers.



    He transports Danny first when trying to retrieve the sceptor and sends him to an ancient battling arena to fight a knight. Then after being fed up of no one listening to him, he transports all those who were in the auditorium for the candidate speech to Ancient Egypy. Now they'll listen to their new king.



    As Danny fights the knight, Tucker puts the kids and Mr.Lancer to work to finish building the sphinx(except Sam whose totally loving her outfit). Meanwhile, the Servent is planning to overthrow Tucker once the sphinx is complete.



    Danny soon returns from battle in the Knights suit of armor. Thinking he had been defeated in battle, Danny jumps out the suit to cease the sceptor once more. Hotep-rah takes the sceptor back and unleashes the sphinx on him. Because Tucker was still the king, he could command the sphinx to sic Hotep-rah, leaving him running for his already dead life.



    Tucker sends everyone back to Amity Park and makes everyone but him, Sam, and Danny forget what had happened. Tucker removed himself from the election and went back being Techno-geek Tuck.
  • Not the BEST episode, but not the WORST either....

    8.8
    "Great"
    "King Tuck" is a very neat episode, with its storyplot and villain and whatnot. Plus, Tuck is the villain yet again, and this is also the second episode in a row (I think...) that Tuck gets chased out of a place by ticked off girls.



    One thing I like about this episode: it proves my theory on "Sexeh Sammeh", which states that Sam can wear pretty much anything and still be sexy. :D lol



    There was one thing about this episode I wasn't really all that fond of. Do you really expect me to believe that the Ghostly Wail can level a city block and take down Dan Phantom but cannot take down a Sphinx?



    Overall, I give this episode an 8.8/10.
  • Tucker missuses his power and Danny and Sam don\'t listen to him.

    10
    "Perfect"
    I think it was a really good episode. I was surprised to find out that Danny\'s Ghostly Wail didn\'t work on the sphinx. Danny and Sam seemed a bit out of character, they usually aren\'t that inconsiderate to Tucker.



    The Egyptian theme was a nice change from the Medival theme of BM. It was interesting for me to find out that Danny can change his ghost outfit (when the ghost dog is pulling part off and you see his boxers).



    It was similer to WyW in that Tucker missuses power he gets. Hotep Ra didn\'t seem like much of a villian though.



    All in all, I give the episode 10/10.

    No one listens to Tucker, And he do es when he becomes a pharoah. Hotep Ra's plan is interfered because lancer can't complete the Sphinx of Tucker Duulaman. He gets power, listened to, And after all that being in charge doesn't appeal to him, And he give up The student body President.
  • Nobody will listen to Tucker and he gets mad with power after discovering that he is a descendant of the Pharoah and releases a servant, Hotep Ra. Will Dany be able to save Tucker bfore he sends the world into oblivion. OR DIE TRYING!!!

    This was one supercool episode. I was out of my seat trying to get a better view of the show. I can't wait until the next episode. I just can't belive that Tucker was a king of the Pyramid Days. It must be so cool to have Ghost Minions.
  • When no one pays attention to Tucker's campaign, he releashes an old pharoah servent ghost, who helps him take total control.

    "Superb"
    This is a terrific episode. Tucker really deserevd this. It had lots oh humor in it and it was really enjoyalbe. I liked the return of the Ghostly Wail and how Sam reacted to "Samantha." It was also nice how all the bullies had to do labor for "the nerd." All in all, this was an awesoem, hilarious episode.

    Those unaccustomed to power will soon be corrupted when suddenly given a lot it. This has been true since the dawn of time, and it was true for Tucker. But honestly, it was a stupid episode because both Danny and Sam were so out of character. They've never been that inconsiderate before. I mean, what were the creators thinking in this episode!? But it was kinda cool, I have to admit. This is the second time that Tucker has failed to acknowledge Uncle Ben's Rule of Super-heroics: With great power come great responsibility. Tucker had the power without thinking of the responsibility, and look what happened. I rest my case.
  • The best episode so far!

    "Perfect"
    This episode had many suprises in it.It's very nice to see Danny use his Ghostly Wail again.But even though Danny's complaints were real funny.Like the one after the Sphinx chased after Hotep Ra and destroyed the city that's when Danny said,"Well,now I know why they call these things Ruins."Also in that chariout race that he said,"I got to remember this if we have to do a report on the history of road rage".I bet Paulina must of felt real sorry for Danny since he couldent beat the Sphinx even with his Ghostly Wail.But it's still a good thing that Danny didn't use his Ghostly Wail in public but where he can't be seen.You know that's because after he uses the Ghostly Wail that he changes back into human mode.And of corse if that happens in public too many people will find out his secret identity.But I'm getting out of the topic.Over all I give this episode a 10 out of 10.So far this is in a tie for my favorite episode with Identity Crisis.
  • Tucker gets mad with power

    10
    "Perfect"
    This episode has a new villian, named hotep ra,who tricks Tucker by turning him against Danny and Sam, it works and Tucker turns Amity Park into ancient Egypt, and making everyone at Casper High his servents, when hotep ra's true motives are to overturn Tucker and become all powerful. I thought this was a great episode its always great to see the Ghostly wail and it also seems that danny is getting stronger, Dash and Kwen where great in this one is good that they used him alittle bit more in this episode, the clothes that they wore where something else, but it was another great installment.
  • Tucker, fed up with nobody listening to him, finds himself very open to the idea of his own minion, a ghost convinced he is an ancient Egyptian pharoh. Unfortuantely, this ends up turning Amity Park into ancient Egypt!

    In "King Tuck," Tucker, fed up with nobody listening to him, finds himself very open to the idea of his own minion, a ghost convinced he is an ancient Egyptian pharoh. Unfortuantely, this ends up turning Amity Park into ancient Egypt!



    You know...I really liked this one. It's not my favourite in the series, but I was pleasantly surprised.



    I can't actually write a long review for this one, because I just have that good, simple feeling about it.



    The main thing I was worried about was that this ep would end up being WyW all over again and re-hash the same issues. I was really glad that they came up with new circumstances and new motives for Tucker's possession this time around. He really shouldn't be ignored like that. Then again, he could also stand to trim that ego down a bit, heh. He also seemed to act a bit different when under the spell this time, which was nice. And his "techno-themed platform" was great.



    I really liked Sam and Danny in this one. They were funny when they ignored Tucker, but they never got jerky. They started paying attention to Tucker by the end and when things got bad, they stayed focused on righting it. Danny was really incredible this time around in sticking to his superheroing. He made some mistakes, but he was as focused as Batman or Superman - really cool to see, IMO. And I loved Sam in this one. Encouraging everyone, trying to talk sense into Tucker...wonderful. And her reaction when it looked like the "warrior" had vanquished the "ghost boy..." nice touch.



    The story was nice. I really liked that the "student council president" issue was underplayed. That could have really gotten cliched, and instead they focused on Tucker's bigger issues instead. And the ancient Egyptian setting was handled as well as the medieval setting in BM - very nicely. Not too many cliches and some nice backgrounds.



    Animation - once again, better than ever.



    Music - once again, another great score.



    Humour and action - perfectly timed.



    I had two major issues with this episode. First; I really found the villain to be bland. I just wasn't interested in him for some reason. Second; can Lancer please get a break? The guy's not that bad!





    All and all - 8/10. Great episode, and I can't wait for the next one. Well done!
