Review: Everybody Loves Hypnotoad
Yesterday, Everybody Loves Hypnotoad was released on DVD. The TV show -- produced, written, and directed by the Hypnotoad, and starring the same -- is a hilarious romp that follows the ins-and-outs of the Hypnotoad's daily life. As a viewer, I was fully captivated by the show, except during the brief establishing shots (a suburban house; a Seinfeldian diner) and the commercial breaks -- for some reason those scenes failed to hold my attention.
The DVD includes one full 22-minute episode of Everybody Loves Hypnotoad, and features a flashback sequences and even some bloopers. It also includes some DVD "extras," such as a 90-minute time-travelling episode of Futurama, which was of some interest.
All Hail the Hypnotoad!

Indeed. What's with his collar by the way? Has Perez Hilton written about that yet? I think he would spraypaint it as "Bitch."
I could really use a hypnotoad window sticker...
I came across your blog on Technorati and noticed that you've also watched Everybody Loves Hypnotoad. Wasn't it great when Hypnotoad found out that he has a long-lost brother? Or when he deliberately didn't inform his rivals that they were going to loose their over-seas oil fields because of guerilla revolutionaries?

Was honestly a bit let down by the new Futurama dealie. 'Twas good, but not great (IMHO).

I agree that the level of humor was a notch below their abilities, but I that's because they were juggling a fairly complex sci-fi plot. Here's hoping the next three up the comic fare.
