天下制覇

Also, nobody wants to be Peter Criss. Not even Peter Criss wants to be Peter Criss.

Impressions:

This week began with a rarity for Japan, a Halloween themed bit, which raised the question in my mind, "What the hell does Japan even think Halloween is?" …Which despite directly addressing in its course, I’m not entirely certain what the answer is. It ended up with them dressing up like Kiss and rocking out as the most ‘Halloween’ thing anyway, at least until they got distracted by candy/gift giving. So it was a better segment than usual.

Unfortunately, the middle bit was remarkably terrible. I think they used up all the episode’s budget on Kiss and decided to just demo new blurry ways to use CG people. At least it was shortish. The last part moved on to dentistry on Red. It could’ve used more Rube Goldeberg machines (well, Pythagoras Switch, but same deal), but was more or less about the same as most other segments.
