#WaddleOn Review: July 2013

Hey guys! Chill here. Since I've never really seen this done before, and I have some strong opinions about this particular topic, I'll be doing monthly reviews of Club Penguin's new comedy show on YouTube, #WaddleOn. At the beginning of each month, I will review the previous month's episodes. In this post, I'll be reviewing July's episodes, which covers episodes 1, 2, and 3.
#WaddleOn: Episode 1
It starts off with a skit about a penguin who has a floor made of butter, and the other penguin is allergic to butter and sneezes all over. Honestly, this skit is weird, unfunny, and gross.

The second skit features a miner talking about an "amazing discovery" in the Mine. This discovery turns out to be a pookie, and the other penguin is her mwa mwa. CLUB PENGUIN KNOWS ABOUT POOKIES WE'RE ALL DOOMED The skit isn't really funny to me though.

Then there's construction workers drinking coffee, and another penguin says they've had enough. This skit is just... boring. How is this funny?

The next skit has a penguin in a christmas tree costume running from penguins with ornament costumes. This one is still sort of boring, but it's the first one I actually found funny.

Afterwards, a penguin in a crab costume says the lights are too bright in the Clothes Shop, and the manager tells him to stop being crabby. It's a good pun, but I don't find this skit funny.

The final skit is a skit about a penguin starting to tell a joke, and gets interrupted by someone else. This skit is the worst of them all I think.

Conclusion: The first episode didn't set the tone for the rest of the series well. It was boring, and only had one remotely good skit, with the ornaments. Everything else was absolute junk.
#WaddleOn: Episode 2
The first skit was the one that started the whole "Earthlings and Pie" joke. This one was actually okay, but I still didn't find it funny.
The second skit was a reversal of the fourth skit from last episode - the ornament was now being chased by christmas trees. This one was also sort of funny.

The next skit has a penguin cart surfing with his black puffle, instructing him on how to turn. Eventually the penguin crashes, and the puffle says "Next time I'm driving". This skit was actually pretty funny!

The fourth skit has a penguin in a pizza costume in the Pizza Parlor, asking a diner what she wants to eat. The diner replies "a big slice of pizza" and the penguin freaks out. I liked this one too.

Next up, a penguin is dancing in the Night Club and his color changes to the dance floor... boring.

The final skit of this episode features two penguins in an igloo. One penguin tells the other penguin they have to stop feeding their puffle so much, and the other penguin asks "What's gonna happen?". The puffle suddenly turns into a puffle pillow, implying that it got fat. This is weird and boring.

Conclusion: This episode was a little better than the first. Some of them weren't very good, but others, like the ornaments and cart surfer, were pretty good.
#WaddleOn: Episode 3
The last episode of this review starts off with penguins drilling on the Iceberg. They give up and say it won't tip and leave, except for one. The Iceberg then tips. This sketch isn't really funny...

The second skit shows two penguins in red puffle costumes admiring a red puffle. Eventually the puffle barfs and they continue admiring it. This sketch is gross and weird. 

Next up, a penguin is smashing fruit in Smoothie Smash with his... err... bottom, and the customer says "No way I'm drinking this". Yet another gross sketch.

The next skit has a penguin in the Book Room, seeing a penguin in the wanted poster. He asks why he's on the poster, and the penguin replies "I dunno, just wanted". If this is supposed to be a pun... not a very good one.

The final skit is a "sequel", if you will, of the original Earthlings and Pie joke from last episode. A penguin walks in and asks what's on the menu - the alien says that he is, and then the penguin reveals he's an alien too, and they laugh evilly. The alien then requests pie. This is still boring and weird.

Conclusion: Unlike episode 2, which had a few funny parts, episode 3 was abysmal. All the skits were boring, gross, or both.

So, here's the episodes in my opinion from best to worst: Episode 2, Episode 1, and Episode 3.

What do August's episodes hold? Find out in September! Until then, see ya!
