RETURN OF THE BEEBO
Excellence, man. When you made that userpage news comment asking people if they wanted to see more BEEBO a few months ago, I didn't expect such a rapid response to our responses, in a way. I'm glad for ANY BEEBO, personally, and while this certainly doesn't measure up to any of the full episodes, it IS just a holiday special, so...
On the plus side, Harry + BEEBO in their natural environs.... living room, dead-body-chalk-outlines on the carpet, crazy shit going on... check, check, CHECK. Santa shaking the tree and Harry smacking that ass down? Good stuff. Santa going toe-to-toe with BEEBO himself? Even MORE badass.
All of this opening/intro stuff and the "odyssey to de-eye Full House folk" portion of the story are quick good, actually. I differ with both Santa AND Harry, though. Santa? Dave Coulier isn't that funny, Full House or otherwise. Harry? Neither is Stamos. He looks like he belongs in Grease, I suppose he thinks he "rocks," and he can land a hot wife. But funny? Nah, the funniest people on Full House were the neighbor girl and Bob Saget. Bob Saget's hilarious. When he's not having to censor everything out of his mouth. Dirty dirty man, that one.
But anyway, the one disappointment, my friend, is the ending. When Harry's trying to get the fuck out and Santa insists on extending the X-Mas special about 2 minutes too long with the whole "trying to get his Southeast Asian workers to sing a Christmas song for them" bit.... the humour just drained away. Way too long. Way too long. Aside from that? GREATNESS, as usual.
Now please... make the next actual episode. Tell us what happens to Harry and BEEBO and most important of all... the bandmembers of RUSH!
"Oh yeah... this changes EVERYTHING!" Why, Elizabeth Taylor... you shallow, shallow ice queen. #;-}>
