Kidding [kinda *snorts....
]I don't make episode threads as a general rule because it feels like a cheat to be floating my own threads all the time. Although considering how low-key the fans seem to be, perhaps in this case I should have. It was both the season finale and the 100th episode. Granted some may have already watched it ad nauseum on their own via DVD / Blu-ray [I didn't, I waited to see it for the first time on tv] but that shouldn't have stopped people from posting about it the moment it aired.
It's really sad how people just popped up out of the woodwork when we were looking for a co-HELPeR for here but couldn't be bothered to stick around for anything after the event had passed.
Too long; Didn't read; More to a topic -
I liked the majority of the 100th episode.
I will admit to being a little meh on the Power Park Rangers bit because I thought there had been some sort of glitch and an episode of MAD was airing. But the castle finale sequence, holy crap. THAT was SOMETHING.
The amount of work that went into that was absolutely staggering. 360 set designs, multiple individualized fight sequences, I didn't notice anything immediately out of place [like a left-behind pinhole in the flooring - clean-up seems flawless] and will probably end up having to watch it at least a few times in order to even hope to have caught all the little details going on in the background. In short, submit that sequence for award consideration.
I don't understand this group of fans at all. It's the least vocal group of people I've ever encountered on the internet.
The 100th episode was clearly a brilliant piece of stop motion animation and a triumph for the people who created it. I also could have done without the Power Park Rangers because I honestly didn't know what I was looking at. I thought it might be some Comic Con douchebags in a reclaimed landfill. But other than that brief segment, the rest was amazing. And the song at the end was very heart warming.
Thank you to the creative team behind this show. I can just hear that Robot Chicken now. I never thought so much feeling could come through in a few clucks and bawks.
I put a lot of the blame on the powers that be over there at RC for the lack of anything about ep 100 going on over here. They were too busy congratulating themselves on their article in Variety I suppose.
It would be nice if once, instead of using their (and by that I mean Matt and Seth) own twitter feeds and facebook accounts to talk about Robot Chicken, they came here and posted something. This is the "official" board of RobotChicken.com. I mean, the video diaries are nice, but really, it takes one minute to start a thread.. How did you like the 100th episode?... maybe they are like me and can't take rejection.

It was ok but it was kind of odd. At first I didn't know what was happening and I could barely understand what they were saying. Then when it finally hit me what was happening it was kinda meh.
The best part IMO (and others) was the castle scene. It was fun seeing the different characters from RC past/present. I'm a little surprised that **noel** Puddin' was the toughest fighter (before the Mad Scientist) instead of the **noel** Robot. He has made more apperences and is a robot but it still worked out great.
I think that has to do with how the Humping Robot has never really been out to intentionally hurt anything. He might inadvertantly hump the bumper off a volkswagon or completely void the warrenty on your home appliances but he's more of a lover than a fighter. Bitch Pudding, on the other hand, will choke a kitten just for looking cute.

Well, they did come here every day for a week and host a live video Q&A for the fans the week before the 100th episode aired. That ain't nothing.
Also, that kind of wrapped up season 5 for them so they're all probably taking a break right now.
I'm sure they'll be back to lurk our outrage in no time.
