Awesome

The last two or three episodes were great. This second season was nine episodes, but it could have been six. The endless discussions about everything are ponderous. So much gets drawn out to fill time that I watched this seven years later just so I could fast forward through the constant heart-to-heart drama.

I also fast forwarded through almost every scene with Gaten Matazarro. Just watching his dumb face and annoying voice is excruciatingly painful. He is always lying to everyone and manipulating his friends. What a douchebag character.

I kept hoping the demidog lizard would eat his face, especially at the end when he gave it a Three Musketeers bar. This was a rip-off of the Jurassic Park movies where Chris Pratt is always making friends with raptors. It would be great if both of them would get eaten by their favorite critters.

So really for me there were about three good episodes in this season, and the whole thing could be edited down to five episodes with less talking and more action.
