Episode 8: Dude, Where's My Head?

Coop lets Jamie borrow Megas' car in order to impress a girl that Jamie has been crushing on. Unfortunately, it's around this time that the Glorft have finished constructing their own dark copy of Megas, and set course to take down Megas and conquer Earth. How can Coop possibly face off against the alien invaders when Megas is missing its head!?

Won't lie, this is one of my favorite episodes across the entire show.

There's just so much going on here! The only real flaw being that there are noticeably more animation mistakes.

On the gag front, every single bit of character humor lands flawlessly. From the flashback to how trash Jamie can be, to the citizens of Jersey not even realizing that they're under attack at first because they're so used to Coop breaking stuff. It's all on point, and features on of my favorite bits in the entire show.

Also, console gag.

And speaking of Jamie, there's some surprising character development for both him and Coop. Yeah, Jamie can certain be a little prick, but when the chips are really down, he does care about Coop and will do his best to help him. As for Coop, while he was a bit of a reluctant hero at the start of the show, he starts to grow into his own heroic spirit with this episode, with him even enjoying the training sessions he does with Kiva.

Speaking of training, which typically involves blowing stuff up.

PoPTV stuff destroyed:

1. A satellite
2. A billboard
3. A car show
4. A news van
5. Another satellite
6. A radio tower
7. Their HQ

And last but most certainly not least, ontop of the sheer coolness factor of Megas fighting a copy of itself, this episode gave me one of my all time favorite reaction images. BEHOLD!

It gets me every time.
