Everybody knows laughter is the best medicine. Whenever I get sick, I always prescribe myself a healthy dose of cartoons and sit-coms to make all my troubles go away. And with some sort of strange flu bug flying around in my part of the world, I thought it fitting to spoon out some laughs. Hopefully you're healthy, but here's some sugar to help make the medicine go down a little easier if you need it - the last four hilarious episodes I've seen. And I'm talking gut-busters.
4. "Something's A Miss"
THE MARVELOUS MISADVENTURES OF FLAPJACK (CN)
Flapjack keeps getting mistaken for a girl.
Lately, FLAPJACK has just been the funniest overall on its network, and this episode stands out as one of the best. Gender confusion is always funny, but Flapjack just makes it even funnier, the gags getting better and better as the episode progresses. Plus, by the end, there's a surprise twist that you'll probably be half-expecting, but it's sure to put a smile on your face either way.
Funniest Moment: The girls in the club mistaking Flapjack for another girl.
3. "Family Game Night" - WIZARDS OF WAVERLY PLACE (DC)
Alex uses a spell to switch brains with Harper, but she keeps on getting the spell wrong, including accidentally leaving Harper with no brain. After a girl at school asks Justin out, he devises a plot to keep her away.
There's nothing more amusing than family humor, and the Russos are the best family for it. Between no-brain Harper and Max's oblivious attitude to Justin's dilemma, the little things make this episode great, but what makes it even greater is the climactic scene near the end during "family game night" at the Russo loft. Anybody who's ever had a real family will love it.
Funniest Moment: Jerry and Theresa screaming out on the terrace.
2. "Swiss Family Phineas" - PHINEAS AND FERB (DC)
The family takes a short sail trip out to sea, but a storm causes them to wind up stranded on a remote island. To pass the time, Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella, build a set of treehouses with the most modern conveniences, to Candace's dismay, as she wants to get back home in time to attend Jeremy's party. Meanwhile, Perry the Platypus, who was left behind, must get away from the watchful eye of Baljeet and Buford, so he can go on his mission to stop Dr. Doofenshmirtz's latest plot.
What I love most about this series, and I love a lot of about this series, is that no matter how short or long your laughs are, you never stop laughing during any episode. Ever. Unless you have no sense of humor. And this episode is no exception. Both the main plot and sub-plot are equally hilarious - the Flynn-Fletcher family getting stranded on a deserted island...Buford and Baljeet pairing up to watch Perry...the whole bit with Karl...and then there's always Doofenshmirtz. I guess you have to watch it to completely understand. I highly recommend it.
Funniest Moment: Karl.
1. "He Could Be The One" (pts. 1 & 2) - HANNAH MONTANA (DC)
Miley’s back to dating Jake Ryan, but Robby Ray isn’t so sure he wants her to go there again. In an attempt to get Jake back on Robby’s good side, Miley schemes to feign interest in Jesse, the “bad boy” guitarist in Hannah’s band. But Miley finds herself in quite the pickle when she realizes she’s suddenly attracted to Jesse as well. Now she’ll have to choose between the two boys, and she’s determined to find out who could be the one.
This is actually a bit of a trick-favorite. For one thing, it's technically two episodes. For the other thing, I'm not too nuts about the episodes as a whole, but there was one aspect that set it apart from all the other HANNAH episodes I've seen lately.
Jackson and Rico.
Okay, okay, I admit it. Anybody who knows me knows that, for me, they're always the highlight of any episode. But in this special, they particularly stand out in hilarity. Why? Because nothing gets you laughing with border-line tears in your eyes like Jason Earles and Moises Arias singing and dancing the narration in their own number of song parodies.
These two episodes are definitely worth watching, just for them.
Funniest Moment: Jackson and Rico singing in Hannah Montana garb.
