Worst episode ever? (Spoilers? Not really...)


It's been a while since I've actually caught the show, and of course, everyone seems to have their criticisms of GX (I'm talking to all the 19-year-olds in college right now...).
But I think the worst premise for an episode of Yu-Gi-Oh, and frankly the worst premise for an episode of ANYTHING, was when that maniac who left the Academy kept sneaking in and digging through the bin of rotten sandwiches and somehow kept GUESSING which one was the DELICIOUS EGGWICH and STEALING THE EFFIN EFFWICH...EGGWICH, because he had become one with the cards and was supposed to have some power of foresight. And he turned out to be some bad Tarzan wannabe who could "guess his cards good" (even though he was no good at math, keeping a field presence, or even adding up the many Life Points he was losing). His actual cards weren't even anything to call home about.
It might just be me, but it's a sign of a pretty bad plot when Jaden is running around screaming, "We've got to catch that EGGWICH THIEF!!!" (Even worse than the kid in Yu-Gi-Oh with the VR world. There's 22 episodes we'll never get back.)

The VR World story arc was awesome.

"(The VR World story arc was awesome.)" thats Right

i've enjoyed the VR World Story Arc
but the Abridged version of the VR World Story Arc of Yu-Gi-Oh! Abridged was a little bit offensive

That's true. Thanks very much.

Anyway, yes the eggwich episode was rather annoying. One thing that bothered me was that the idea of drawing the unlabelled sandwiches was to "improve their draw technique." What 'technique' is there? If you could draw a card from anywhere in the deck then yes, I could understand the idea of cultivating some kind of 'sixth sense' to draw the card you needed, but as you can only draw the top card there's no choice of any kind involved. So what 'technique' is there to improve?

The episode with the dueling monkey was also terrible.
