Some Kind of Meatwad
Episode Commentary: Monster
The randomness continued this past week on Aqua Teen Hunger Force, as Carl’s penis found its way into the trios’ home, for the sake of helping Meatwad and Frylock get some much-needed sleep.
Yep, only the guys at Adult Swim could up with something like this and while it’s the weakest episode of the season so far, seeing Carl up to his old antics is well worth it.
After several attempts at convincing a petrified Meatwad that he doesn’t have a monster in his closet, a sleep-deprived and bankrupt Frylock enlists the services of their filthy and perverted, but equally loveable neighbor Carl to serve as their “monster.” Thinking that he’ll get some sleep after he kills the beast, Frylock, in his infinite wisdom, bribes Carl with pizza.
In spite of being interrupted while having Cyber-Sex, Carl, dressed up for the occasion as well [you'll have to watch it for yourself to get the full effect], can’t turn down the offer and immediately heads over the house to help Frylock take care of business.
Soon after, hilarity ensues.
After Frylock vanquishes “the monster,” and it’s time to drag “it” out of the house, Meatwad utters the line of the season so far.
[Staring at Carl's “boxed-out” “member”] “Oh, look. A handle.”
If that doesn’t get out to spit out your soda, then watching Master Shake terrorize poor Meatwad for a few minutes during the episode leading up to this scene should do the trick splendidly.
Rarely does the show have the time to have all four main characters do their thing and in spite of its extra bipolarity this past week, everyone gets their chance to shine. In this episode, Meatwad is extra naïve and adorable, while Frylock is Velveeta personified and Shake is a cruel bastard.
And of course, Carl is still just “Carl.”
Because of that, “Monster” is a fun episode that is great for all the wrong reasons. “Shut your brain off” comedy at it’s finest, Aqua Teen continues to prove it’s back and better than ever.
