"Great"

By SpelCastr_Max, Feb 17, 2007

This episode was a wonderful introduction of all the character's personalities. Where as in the pilot we learn the basis of the show, "Future Jock" reveals more of how they relate to one another. You see the lengths Phil will go to in order to impress Keely, even act out of character. He allows popularity to go to his head and breaks rules he would normally never break. Pim's evil nature begins to reach it's full potential. Keely, who was shown in the pilot to be a bit of ditz, is shown to be more understanding and better friend than expected. Phil's parents even get a chance to show off their disciplinary skills. Vice Principal Hackett's idiodicacy is revealed as well, most of his funniest lines are hidden in the background of scenes. I loved Pim's mockery of Phil who deserves "buckets and buckets of soup". The fact that I'm adult, I also appreciated the line where Hackett proclaims that "ketchup is once again a vegetable" since I can remember when schools did do that.moreless

"Perfect"

By kit_kat_kid, Jul 31, 2005

This episode is the perfect way to start off the series. I loved it when Keely was like "Follow me, don't turn around!" and Phil said "Am I being kidnapped?". I thought it was cute when Keely gave up the popular table to sit with Phil. And I laughed so hard when Phil stood up on the table and made a speech to everyone in the lunchroom.

"Superb"

By DrummerDude08, Jul 15, 2005

This episode of Phil of the Future had it all! It was the perfect way to get Phil and Keely together. In the beginning no one would have expected Phil and Pim to walk into there school door wearing50 style clothes and a cape. After a few times bumping into each other Keely decieds to take Phil up on his tutoring offer and they decied to meet in a unpopular resturant where Keely is sure no one from school will see them. And just as Keely understands algebra some of her "clique" walks through, she pushes Phil under the table and has a talk with him about cliques and before you know it shes sitting with her "clique" as Phil is sadly walking out the door. But in the end Keely realizes that she kind of likes Phil and decieds to sit with him at lunch infront of everyone. This episode is great!moreless
