Review: 12 Oz Mouse “Francis, Cheap & Out of Control”
Overview (Spoilers Below)
A reporter heads to Cardboard City and has questions for everybody, but of course, we can’t get answers from anyone. Eventually, the poor guy gets shot at, but he doesn’t die though questions the reasoning. We get to see a bunch of familiar faces and see what everyone has been up to since the “Invictus” episode. Seems like everything’s rather status quo.
Our Take
The return of 12 oz Mouse reminds me more of season one than season two thus far, but I like where we are. The correct voice actors (sorry Seth Green) are back and ready to rock. We don’t exactly get an episode that’s as crazy as what I think was a stellar second season, instead, almost like a pilot for the reboot. We set the table with our ingredients, now let’s see what the show does for the next twenty episodes.
There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
