The whole first part with Marzipan was pretty good, and I loved the cardboard Homestar, but the part that really got me, was the part with Homestar in the closet. PURE GENIOUS!
Also it was good to take a break from Strong Bad being in every toon.

EDIT: SUPER TOP OF THE PAGE DANCE ADVENTURE!

This was a good toon! But am I the only one who thought Marzipan was a bit sinister here? I mean, boarding up your boyfriend in the closet for three weeks...


That's why I thought it was creepy, primarily.

8 Happy Homestars!

Nice toon! For the first time since Cool Tapes I finally laughed at something Marzipan did. Her scrunched up face when she does Homestar's voice is very funny.

I think if you ionize the molecules in the eggs yolk it may work as an organic battery, but probably not...

That was a good short. I love cardboard Homestar, and the fact that Marzipan only makes him say that she's smart throughout the entire cartoon.

Speaking for my people, I don't think any male does a decent impression of any female, and vice versa, so I think Matt's impression is as awful as Missy's. But, hey, who want's to be able to do a good impression of the other sex?

That was a pretty good come-back cartoon: I like the fact that TBC usually actually acknowledges long vacations in such cartoons - it breaks the fourth wall, and in doing so makes us fans feel more connected with TBC and the H*R universe, as though we're, to an extent, part of what's happening; another reason why H*R should stay on our monitors and off the TV screen.

As Maktaka implied, it was a bit weird seeing Marzipan in this light: I always figured she was a pretty consistant, stable character, and this cartoon more-or-less rubbishes that idea. I guess it explains why Marzipan bothers with Homestar by laying some common ground between them. Also, it is pretty funny in that it portrays Marzipan in a light which contradicts her apparant true character, which she evidently wants no one but herself/herself and Homestar to see for that reason: it makes her seem more a cover-up maniac than a sensible, logical individual.

I hate ratings, but here's mine: 7/10 - a good, acknowledging, imaginative come-back (how do you insert images???).

I don't know what or who you mean by "my people," but there have been notable times when men do good impersonations of women and vice-versa. Just take a look at Dustin Hoffman as Tootsie, Robin Williams as Mrs. Doubtfire, and Eddie Izzard as, well, basically anyone but himself.

as well as that hilarious look on Marizpan's face whenever she did the Homestar voice.

It looks like Homestar's underbite. Clever detail.

That was...sorta creepy. Less funny than it was just creepy. Creepier than Strong Sad's laugh.


True, but one part I did find funny was the "broom cake" scene.

And, for the record, Robin Williams is a pretty kickawesome Mrs. Doubtfire. Tootiloo!

I agree, and she's not as smart as she thinks she is.

Hopefully she can lock Strong Bad in the closet with Homestar. That'll solve some of her problems.

The short was really funny and it's the first appearance of Cardboard Homestar! That's really funny how Marzipan imitated Homestar's voice in the toon. :mrgreen:
