Enter the Sleep Realm

"Perfect"

By Te_Xuan_Ze_7, Feb 02, 2007

While Juniper Lee, Ray Ray, and Dennis are being prepared for the talent show, Steven the Sandman intends to put everyone in Orchid Bay to sleep. June is the only one not under the evil sandman's spell. So she tries to do battle against Steven by going to sleep and dream herself as an armor warrior. June has been chasing Steven around in other people's nightmares until she finally tossed him onto a remoted island. In the end, the Short Angry Freuds got to perform on the stage at school.

I like this episode because this marks the first time June sings. Her voice is totally soulful and beautiful. I hope to hear her sing again.moreless

"Perfect"

By shengongwu3000, Aug 04, 2006

This one is really good. Steven the Sandman intends to capture people in their dreams, and force them to be his slaves forever. Luckily, June dreamt as an armor slayer to attack Steven out of everybody's dreams and nightmares. She throws the Sandman onto an uncharted island in some guy's dream. But that was the last we see Steven the Sandman. My favorite part was the ending, because we all got to hear her sing as well as playing the electric guitar.

I love Juniper Lee as a fighter and a singer. I hope she can sing more new songs in future episodes really soon.moreless

A lot of fun.

"Great"

By ScottMars, Sep 15, 2005

A fun episode, with Ophelia having a cheerful nightmare and Juniper switching places with Ray Ray.

I really liked the end song, "I Sing the Body Electic." The person doing Juniper's voice can sing pretty well. Roger's "Ode to Joy" was the strangest thing in the episode. It was purely fun.

The Sandman attempts to take over the waking world by building a tower to reach a portal in the sleeping world sky, and June steps in to take him down Freddy Krueger style...moreless

"Superb"

By AmDrag, Aug 13, 2005

This episode is very silly. That's what it is. But it's a good kind of silly, where June passes by doors leading to the various dreams of others. Ophelia's nightmare and Monroe and Ray Ray's fantasies...these were all gold. Even little Juniper Lee was hilarious.

But the best part of the episode has to be the Sandman getting jumpkicked through the head by June while on the phone with his mother. Priceless!

And they even through in a sweet musical bit with June singing at the end, too...

I give it an A...moreless
