I taste awesome.

"The Jiggler" is an adorable episode of Season One that includes troublemaking fruit, dancing balls, and purple whatevers.

This episode, while not the best so far, is a great, enjoyable episode of the show. The writing was, while not directly funny, it was hilarious anyway, and the premise of the episode was creative. The songs in this episode were super fun and adorable, I would of liked to hear a full 3 minute song of "Baby" with Finn's autotuned voice. I hope that fact was canon (that he swallowed a little computer that allows him to sing robotically), and not just a one time gag.

There's not much more I can say about the episode except for that it's one of the episodes meant for younger kids, but kinda not. That part when The jiggler exploded, and especially the part when the mom gets angry and flails with loud noises and colours would be possibly disturbing for me as a younger child (7-9?).

That darn Stanley better stop getting in trouble as well.

Rating: 7.5/10

On the surface this could be a story you might find in a more normal show for kids. It teaches you Not to interfere with nature, as the mother doesn't recognise its own child when its scent has been disturbed.

However, after getting the AT treatment this simple story becomes something else. There are moments that are oddly sexual (the Jiggler paddling Jake's rump or Finn tenderly kissing it), moments of body horror (the Jiggler swelling to bursting in its own juices) and moments that defy any kind of sense (eating drawings and auto tuned crooning).

Overall it's weird enough to be pretty enjoyable.

"The Jiggler" (1x06) Review

"The Jiggler" is pretty much a complete clunker from Season 1. The plot fails to be interesting, entertaining, or amusing in any way. The titular character is irritating and the script is poor and juvenile to the nth degree.

Grade: 5.2/10 (D)
