Spoilers Below

Milo is convinced that a new hamster TV show called “The Milo Show” is about him, but when the Milo character turns out to be a klutzy nerd hamster he gets pissed and  heads to Hamsterwood to clear his name. The sitcom-style show is live so Milo just shows up and starts shit with the other Milo and even starts to consider himself as part of the family. The hamster Milo isn’t thrilled with being shown up so despite the fact that the director loves the new addition, he convinces the real Milo to get into a truck bed filled with The Milo Show merch. The trucks drives off of the studio lot with both of the Milos fighting it out on top, but a whole bunch of turtle shells get in the way which causes the truck to flip out and smash into Burger Bunnies. The guys eventually make up and the director loves the two so much he creates a new show called Milo and Oscar.

This was a phenomenal way to kick off Fish Hooks Season 3 and you can tell the writers are starting to bring some fresh concepts to the table. Ryan Stiles, Diedrich Bader, and Jason Alexander were outstanding in their respected roles, so much so that I really want Milo Show now whether its with Oscar or not. The animation during the chase scene was some of the best stuff in the biz and there were funny jokes all over the place.  Shellsea was probably one of the funnier ones as she played armchair quarterback through the entire watching of the TV shows although the chase obstacle course featuring the turtles, bunnies, and all out chaos was definitely legit. Milo was great as normally when someone finds out there is a show with merch behind it they might sue, but our love able Milo instead is jealous. This was a GREAT episode to come back to.

9.5 out of 10
