    I know why everyone hates this episode. I, personally, don't 'hate' it. I think the stories could have been good if they were written better. "2-D House of Horror" could have been GREAT if the jokes were better and the ending was...well written.

    "It's A Wishful Life" was trying to take the "It's A Wonderful Life" story and be creative and different. BIG MISTAKE! Everyone was happier when Timmy was gone? How horrible is that! *sigh* I guess they can't all be wonderful episodes....moreless

    Timmy's 2-D House of Horror: 3-D glasses? Then first of all, why is this episode called Timmy's 2-D House of Horror? And when Vicky's family moves in, couldn't Timmy just wish them out of the house? This episode absolutely has no common sense! Rating: Double F

    It's a Wishful Life: Absolutely the worst episode I've ever saw in television history! This episode is also the episode that makes the least sense ever! Why would Timmy ever wish that he'd never existed? Why would other unrelated things happen when he didn't exist? Timmy's parents raising a talented daughter and living in a mansion sorta makes sense, but how come Francis is no longer a bully at that time? And Crocker no longer believes in fairies? But he already had them in the 70's! Also, how come Elmer got his boil because of Timmy? And why did Chester have perfect teeth, a triple mobile home, and fairy godparents? He isn't miserable! The worst of all, how did Timmy make A.J. bald and had to do elementary school instead of moving on to high school? All these elements make this episode he worst ever!!! Rating: Quadruple F

    Overall Rating: Triple Fmoreless

  • These episodes were just not funny. I used to like these episodes, but now I don't.

    Timmy's 2-D House of Horror: I did not like this episode. Timmy wishes for real lava in a boring 3-D thriller, but it destroys Vicky's house. Then Vicky's family moves in with Timmy, and Vicky starts to treat him badly. Timmy gets fed up of being treated like dirt, so he wishes that Vicky's house was back, but fails because his parents still want Vicky's family to stay there. So Timmy wishes the 3-D glasses made everyone see what they fear the most, to scare Vicky's family out, and it works.

    This episode had a lot of potential. The plot could've gone into a good direction, but it made a huge turn for the worse. I hated how everyone{including Timmy's parents} treated Timmy like a dog {literally}, and how Vicky's parents were afraid of her. Also, there was very little humour in this episode, the only redeeming gag was the ending where the Turners look through the 3-D glasses. A disappointing episode.

    It's A Wishful Life: Even worse than the last episode. Timmy is doing good deeds for people, but no one appreciates him. He gets angry, and wishes he was never born. But to his surprise, everyone's life in the world is better without him.

    This episode tried to do a parody of "It's A Wonderful Life", but like the last one, it went into a horrible direction. Everyone's life without Timmy{except for Timmy's parents} didn't make any sense. It was terrible to know that everyone's life was better in the first place! Also, this episode didn't have any humour, it was just unfunny and stupid.

    Overall, these are bad episodes. They could've been better, but they were poorly written, unfunny, flat, and made no sense.moreless

    I did not get this episode one bit. Timmy's 2-D house of horror was good, but totally pointless. I didn't like how Timmy's parents were so blind in this episode! Even though they are most of the time, I would at least think they would realize that Timmy wanted them out of their home. And I also didn't like how they treated Vicky and her family better than Timmy. Grade: C. It's a Wishful Life was, pathetic. I would think an episode where Timmy wishes he was never born would be so much better, instead of this horrible excuse for an episode! It was so unrealistic. What did Timmy have to do with AJ's hair, or Chester having Fairy God Parents, or Vicky being nice? But Frances made no sense. He bullied other kids BESIDES Timmy. The writers obviously didn't want to look over every single episode, but they should've. Timmy did meany good deeds that saved a few people, but were they included in this episode? No! Grade: D-.moreless

  • Allusions

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • Chicago Cubs: When Jorgen is telling Timmy about the World Series Champion Chicago Cubs, it appears to be a reference to how the Chicago Cubs haven't been able to win a World Series since 1908. Edit
    • Episode Plot: The episode plot is similar to a Johnny Bravo episode where Johny sees how everyone's lives are much better if he didn't exist. Edit
    • It's a Wishful Life: Girl Scene In the scene where Jorgen shows Timmy what happened to Mr. Crocker if he was never born, a girl closes her eyes to reveal 'Love' and 'You' written on each eyelid. The exact same thing happens in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark when a girl in Indiana's class closes her eyes and has the same thing written on her eyelids. Edit
