Review: Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever ‘Mouth Quest’

Some Spoilers Below:

“I can’t believe this show has been on for 11 seasons – it sucks.” – A Girl*

*(more specifically my GIRLfriend, but I’m not trying to brag here.. OH YEAH, I KNOW A GIRL AND SHE KISSES ME ON PURPOSE, DEAL WITH IT AMERICA. WHAT UP TINA, YOU ARE A REAL PERSON AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT.)

In her defense, this was her very first episode – and in terms of getting into a new show, it was not a great first choice (that’s my bad). I PROBABLY should have given her a quick skip around the greatest hits from the older seasons, but I thought to myself: “Meh, she’ll figure it out or just endure it because I’m watching it regardless.” THAT’S JUST HOW THE FUCK I GETS DOWN.

What am I really talking about here? Why bring my awesome and provocative personal life into this review?

Well, tonight’s episode was one of those, “Oh, they’re doing that … that’s cool,” Aqua Teen episodes. For me, as a long term fan, I think, “Oh word, the show is ending so they’re pulling out all the stops and just trying to do every possible thing they can.” I, for one, appreciate and respect the show’s creative boldness and willingness to go outside the box wherever the fuck it wants. However, for most casual or new viewers, I would imagine that tonight’s [final] season opener was a bit too random too quick to really drive home the humor where it counts.

Tell you about the plot? Sure, I will — THE BLABBER OVERLORDS FORCE ME TO. NOT KIDDING. SEND HELP. ACTUALLY, SEND SELTZER. SELTZER IS FUCKING DELICIOUS.

Anyway.

This week’s episode featured the Aqua gang in a mix of clay-mation (which was mildly amusing) and live action (via some dude, which was higher than mildly amusing) trying to track down Meatwad’s missing mouth – while continuously breaking the fuck out of the fourth wall. I can’t really give you too much more into the plot and its characters without spoiling the jokes that ARE the plot twists and its characters – so just be satisfied with my overview and go watch the god damn thing. Let’s just say, there are two non-recurring (as far as one can guess) characters on this episode that are impressively ridiculous in nature (with great voice actors behind them) – and they do some stuff. That’s right – they do .. some stuff. YOU CAN’T GET QUALITY PLOT SUMMARIES JUST ANYWHERE FOLKS. RESPECT THE CRAFT. BUBBLE THAT BLABBER.

What’s my final verdict?

Aqua Team, I see what you did here. I respect what you did here. It just didn’t work for me. It’s not right, it’s not wrong, it’s just what it is.  Y’all are some crazy sons-a-bitches.

I look forward to the rest of this season.

I love you all.
