SVH #53 Second Chance; or Tennis the Menace

Jun 22, 2008 23:57

SVH #53 Second Chance focuses mainly on Kristin Thompson. On the cover she’s clutching her tennis racket to her chest, I think it’s love. Considering she dumps Bruce’s sorry ass before the end, and there’s no other love interest (barring everybody’s favourite Porsche, 1bruce1, who’s crying in the corner of the Patman garage over the fact Kristin ( Read more... )

Fab recap! And no such thing as too many Simpsons references. I can't even speak in the past tense anymore without adding "...which was the style at the time."

Now I have the image of Grandpa Simpson rambling on stuck in my head. Great Simpsons quote

"Kristin and Bruce have a fun time joking around before the movie and trading opinions of the movie after it’s over. Homer, sorry, Kristin asks ‘Wow, how do you come up with such witty remarks?’ What Kristin doesn’t know is Bruce is wearing an ear-piece and 1bruce1 is feeding him intelligent conversation from the parking lot."

See, if THIS had been in that horrible SVH television show... oh, how much more spectacularly awesomely better it would've been! Will 1BRUCE1 protect human life (including Bruce, I guess) at all costs?! Will the Jeep (make that J.E.E.P. = "Jessica and Elizabeth's Extraordinary Powers") be its ultimate nemesis?!

I like the idea of 1bruce1 as a super hero. Personally, I think he is Bruce's conscience.

When does the Jeep turn up? The only books I've read have the Fiat.

Like Jiminy Cricket! *dies*

I think 1bruce1 should be referred to as an actual character in all future recaps. It's omnipresent!

I think I'll do this in my recaps if no one minds. I originally worried I'd be milking the joke too much if I did it in multiple recaps.

See, this is why I shouldn't read this community at work. I have to turn laughs into fake sniffles so much, my coworkers probably think I either have a cold or that I am a crack addict. Like poor Mr. Martin.

Yay for Simpsons refs! (Laugh/sniff) :)

My brother and I randomly quote The Simpsons at each other all the time. Practically every episode is stored in my brain like TiVo.

You had me at "Tennis the Menace." Loves it!
