I hadn't seen Ned's Declassified in years, and today, I happen to have caught a rerun of it, and man, did it make me nostalgic. I've always loved this show, but I still laugh at everything that's said years later.

Scott Fellows is just a hilarious writer, and we just got so many funny gestures from the cast. I do think people were disappointed by the premiere though due to the crazy finale prior to this, but it was just a well-done episode.

You wouldn't think tips on dodge ball would be interesting, but they definitely made it work here. Favorite part would have to be when Moze told Ned the story on why she decided not to play dodge ball. I literally could not stop laughing. Hats off to one of Nickelodeon's most underrated shows.moreless

You might have noticed that I rated this high for something that is (for all intents and purposes) a filler episode. Well I enjoyed it, but it seemed to just not really tie into last season's shocker of a finale. Ned and Moze seem back to buisness as usual.. But we do finally see some advancement in Cookie/Lisa, which is a loose end from the previous season. This episode showed what I expected, the first day and all that, but I was hoping for something more than that in the second episode. Dodgeball was better than the one before it, because it seemed reminicent of the first episode.. Overall this was good, there was nothing particulary good about it.moreless

Dang it the first day of school episode once more. Now Ned tries to be more tougher and beats up Loomer and I like the part when Ned beat up everyone outside.Cookie thinks he's gorgeous but he nerdly gorgeous that's what every one i know said. Moze tries to be nicer. Then Loomer beats up Ned but it was Moze then Suzie likes Ned better and Gordy downloads movies from the internet. The Loomer and his team want to destroy everyone in a game of dodgeball Man I love playing Dodgeball and Cookie turns to the dark side and has a Darth Vader voice what the heck is up with at LOL and Moze use the Force with is the name of a powerfull dodgeball LOL !moreless

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide: Guide to New Grade and Dodgeball are two really well done episodes! They're are both hilarious and very informative, like most episodes! In New Grade, Ned, Moze, Cookie, Suzy, Lisa, and everyone else is now in the 8th grade and Ned accidentally becomes the new school bully. Moze tries to be nicer. Lisa doesn't waer glasses anymore and isn't allergic and Cookie tries to make his move. lol! In Dodgeball, Ned becomes the team captain of the dodgeball team and he tries to beat Loomer's team, which includes Cookie. Moze says she never wants to play dodgeball again (she's the best player in the school) but then she helps Ned beat Loomer's team.moreless

This episode wasn't the best opener for the season but it wasn't the worst. I liked the beginning how Ned and Moze's new grade resolutions were not to scare as easily and Moze's was not to be so agressive. In this episode Gordy had some really good lines like "you guys have grown a lot in just one weekend." then he says "wow! that was some party." Also another good line was "... I can't answer that due to the fact that I'm 40." I liked the episode dodgeball better then new grade. I enjoyed how it was like a take off on Star Wars. That was funny like when Coach Dirga said "use the force Moze," and Moze and Ned were very confused because they didn't know were that voice cam from, but then Dirga comes out with the volleyball that says force on it. The ending was the best part though because when the people picked up Moze she ducked under the door but Ned on the other hand didn't so he banged his head and then they all fell over. That was very funny. So overall the episode wasn't horrible but not amazing.moreless

  EDIT SHARE
- Episode Ideas: Star Wars
  Much of the episode "Dodgeball" is based on the original trilogy of Star Wars. Two of the most recognized quotes were "Use the force" said by Coach Dirga, a parody of Ben Kenobi telling Luke to use the force, and "The power of the dark side is strong" said by Cookie, a parody of Darth Vader telling this to Luke.
  EDIT SHARE
- Episode: Dodgeball
  
  The episode, Dodgeball, is a parody of the movie, Dodgeball starring Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller.
  Some elements that are the same: Loomer's team is dressed just like the Globo Gym team, Loomer reflects White Goodman(Ben Stiller), and Moze coming back to play dodgeball ala Peter La Fleur (Vince Vaughn).
  EDIT SHARE
- In Dodgeball, the song playing when Loomer's team comes out is similar to the Star Wars theme that plays when Darth Vader comes out.
  EDIT SHARE
- Crubbs: Crubbs out!
  
  A reference to an American Idol qoute, "Seacrest out!"
