REVIEW: SUPERJAIL “Troubles with Triplets”
The twins’ surprise guests interfere with the Warden’s plan to subdue the inmates.
Spoilers Below
Best intro ever for Superjail??
The Warden wants to setup all of the inmates at Superjail with video games so that they can stay quiet. As such, Warden creates “Cyberjail” where inmates run around killing everything in sight in an effort to level up. Jared feels there is a bit too much violence(has he watched Superjail??) but the Warden claims it to be harmless.
Meanwhile, the twins are uncordially introduced to triplets of whom come to Superjail to try and move in. The trips challenge the twins to take over in a new competition and Warden has the final stage all setup! With ‘Father” setup as the referee in a huge battle between monsters and inmates! Kudos to Alice for bulking up and going all crazy shit on the monsters but soon they get bigger too. How to battle?? Characters inspired some f the great 80s arcade games of yesteryear. The real winner ends up killing ‘Father’ and the inmates work together to destroy the rest of the triplets’ combatants leaving the twins as the winners. Eventually, Father comes back and transports the twins back to their home worlds to be the new overlords, well only after getting a spoonful of discipline!
From front to back, this was the best episode of Superjail of not only the season but maybe ever. Anyone, who has seen Wreck It Ralph this past weekend or watched Gravity Falls can attest that watching old-school gaming shit is great and works even better with a solid plot and an outrageous Return of the King type battle that you can’t help but rewinding over and over again just to make sure you caught everything. The Warden was also acting extra bad ass in this episode, and loves to show that he doesn’t mind getting his virtual hands dirty. But, make no mistake, “Troubles with Triplets” gets nothing but gold hands from us!
Do we know if Hulu will be the only entity to have the dub, or if it will be on other platforms, too? The show in general is definitely going to be on multiple platforms.
