"Terrible"

By Lonestarr357, Apr 11, 2008 Report Abuse

One of the surest ways to screw up a classic is to produce a sequel, and while "Return to Wannaweep" doesn't exactly destroy the memories of "Sink or Swim", it does make one uneasy to have to mention them in the same breath.

The Middleton cheer squad is on its way to a competition (that sounds familiar), but, through a rather inane plot twist (something about a busted water main), the squad heads to Camp Wannaweep...er, uh, Gottagrin. One of the members of the competing squads is Gil, who tries to ingratiate himself with a disbelieving Ron. Oh, and Kim and Bonnie try to sabotage each other in the race to be the best.

Like a bad "Friday the 13th" sequel, this episode passes by with nothing of remote interest, surprise or entertainment. There is a faint pulse when Ron does some "Fillmore"-style sleuthing to prove his seemingly paranoid theories right (credit writer Matt Negrete for that...and only that). (SPOILERS - this is merely a formality; as far as I'm concerned, there is nothing of even the slightest consequence to give away here.) It turns out that Gil never really gave up the whole 'vengeance on Ron' thing and seeks to wreck the competition, mutate everyone in sight, yada, yada.

For the obvious and perfectly logical reason that the staff wanted to see this, Ron turns himself into a giant beaver to combat his nemesis. There is a lot here I take issue with: why did Ron decide to become a mutant? He didn't need to before. Why the whole 'there was nothing to learn here' ending? (the "Teen Titans" episode "Don't Touch that Dial" ended up doing it a million times better) Why the need to shoehorn in a lesson in teamwork only to discard it just as quickly? And most of all, why didn't Ron yell out "I told you so!"? (And don't give me any 'being the bigger man' horse crap.)

Definitely not an episode for the highlight reel.moreless

This episode is like the return of camp wannaweep which is self explanatory.

"Perfect"

By glostlover, Jan 29, 2007 Report Abuse

The Mad Dog cheerleaders (and mascot) are off to Cheer Camp. But when a plumbing problem prevents them from holding it at a community college, they're forced to relocate to the newly-renamed Camp Gottagrin. The situation gets worse when Kim discovers she's rooming with Bonnie, while Ron's roommate is the now-human Gil, who's also his football team's mascot. Lake Wannaweep has been detoxified, but when Gil finds a still-toxic grotto, he dives in, becomes Gill, and starts wreaking havoc. Ron then realizes that the only way to defeat a swamp mutant ... is to become one. My favorite part of this episode is to see Gil again and to see him turn against the cheerleaders and mascots. I also liked to see what Ron turned into. The next thing that I liked was to see Kim and Bonnie launched in the air and do flips in the air to capture Gil or as he calls himself Gill.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- During practice at Middleton High, Kim tells Bonnie to jump first onto the pyramid, so that Kim can take the top spot. When we see the pyramid, there are already five cheerleaders forming it and only the top spot is free. Where was Bonnie supposed to jump? Edit
- When Ron says "It's the only way.", his mouth doesn't move. Edit
- Not really that much of a goof but-- In the closed captioning, Gil is refered to as "Gill", even though he has gone back to one l. Edit

Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Pyscho: Notice the shower scene, the one where Bonnie screams aloud after Kim has used all the hot water. This is a direct play of one of the most famous horror movie scenes in the world, the infamous "Shower Scene" from the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock classic, Psycho. Edit
- Marine Corps.: There is a scene where Ron says "You can take the camp out of the evil, but you can't take the evil out of the camp." That is a direct influence to a saying among servicemen and women that have served in the Marine Corps. The actual saying is "Once a Marine, always a Marine. You can take the man out of the Corps., but you can't take the Corps. out of the man." Edit
- A Few Good Men: Ron: You can't handle the truth! This line spoken by Ron line to Kim is a quote from the movie/play titled A Few Good Men. Edit
