Most of the Episode was good,But the Laff-A-Munich Sketch made It good!The Really Rottens Decide to not Play fair and Kill Most of the Yogi Yahooies.The Scooby Doobies Then Retaliate and Fight off the Really Rottens and in the end,Scooby,Shaggy and capt.Caveman Make it Out Alive and the Fallen friends are Avenged and The Really Rottens Had Been Deafeated. The 2nd Best part is the Scientist with power.Both segmants were good and i think it made the show much better. I think this Episode is one of the best in robot chicken and One of Adult swim's best,Best Best Episodes Ever!moreless

Really funny episode.

8.7

By reblex310, Jan 29, 2008

I watched this a couple days ago and thought why not review it? Ok well The sketches are pretty good except the last one was really really funny. Some of the spartan jokes were a little dull but still good. The funniest for me is when Velma and Louise ride of the cliff and are all messed up from the crash and are talking about how good prison is compared to this. What i dont like to much is how every episode is so short like 10 to 15 minutes, but its cool. well they did a good job with character expressions too especially shaggy.moreless

Robot Chicken always finds new ways to stay funny! :idea:

10

By 4EverGreen, Oct 29, 2007

In this episode of Robot Chicken, the writers and actors find numerous ways to make fun of the guy in 300 who said: "This is Sparta!" By making him say other things that rhyme with Sparta or making him say other things with the same tone in his voice with those same words, making fun of "Two and a Half Man" in the process. An awkward moment occurs when a guy proposes to a girl at the top of a ferris wheel and she doesn't accept near the beginning of the show, and even later near the end of the show, she Still doesn't accept! :lol: Thelma and Louise are still alive after having driven off a cliff, and only realize just then that compared to being eaten alive by wolves, having to wait many years for their trial to be decided with the potential of being put in jail and maybe even getting out on bail, their lives might have not turned out so badly! :P Finally, even Hanna-Barbara characters know their share of heartbreaks. The Rotten Rotten's, tired of always losing even though they cheat, decide to take Care of their competition, Once and for all by killing the Yogi Yahooey's team! The Scooby Dooby's team know they Must take a stand and avenge their fallen comrades by showing the Rotten Rotten's that what goes around comes around as they give Dick Dastardly and all his fellow ne'er do-wellers their Ultimate come-uppance by striking them back and making sure They were murdered to! However, not all of the good guys saw the thing to the end. Hong Kong Phooey got killed and Scooby Doo was sad as he was looking at his naked, dead body. Only to realize just now that Hong Kong Phooey Was a dog like him! :roll: Maybe Scooby Doo will have a thing for him if Hong Kong Phooey gets brought back to life! :idea: For pop culture and past references to great works of cinema and television, this show is the best! :D Enough said, true believers! ;)moreless

ALLUSIONS (7)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- The title of this episode is a reference to the song "Man on the Run" by One 2 Many.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Laff-A-Lympics is a parody of the 2005 Spielberg film Munich. The movie itself portrays the events of a Palestinian militant group attacking one of Israel's Olympic teams at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Maytag Repairman is the spokesman for the Maytag company. The commercial usually involves him doing nothing because Maytag hardware is so reliable.
  EDIT SHARE
- The Regrets sketch is based on the ending of Thelma and Louise and what could've possibly happened immediately afterward. Although in the first draft of the movie, it had Thelma and Louise manage to ride in the car all the way down to the bottom of the canyon and just drive away to safety. It was nixed as being too unbelieveable.
  EDIT SHARE
- One of the sketches featuring a spartan from 300, sees him refering to the the television sitcom series Two and a Half Men staring Charlie Sheen.
  EDIT SHARE
- Rocky
  In the sketch with the two guys fighting the guy with the one eye is Rocky from the Rocky series of films.
  EDIT SHARE
- The name "Laff-A-Lympics" comes from Hanna-Barbara's 1970's cartoon series Scooby-Doo's Laff-a Lympic's which starred the talking dog Scooby Doo.
