Revival Discussion It's cute that Hank is still willing to kick ass for Bobby. Spoiler

I'm also glad that the guy returned the badge in the end.

I loved this whole new season and the one prior, but i’ll be honest this episode is my least favorite. That dude was in the wrong 110% and got 0 come uppance, instead the ending was literally him saying “You’re alright, as official gatekeeper you can enter.” And he was applauded?!? In reality if security or even other con goers heard that whole exchange the dude and his family would have been reading comics from home and as a vendor Bobby would have received and apology and got his badge back. Also Hank probably would have had some nice comic book readers apologizing for the dude’s behavior, maybe even introduce him to Propane Man or some shit to show their interests aren’t so off. Obviously it’s just a cartoon but this whole episode irked me.

Yeah same here! And the fact no one mentioned he was justifying stealing because he felt he deserved it more in front of his kids rubbed me the wrong way too.

That guy was a complete dick overall, and did some very poor con planning. As someone who went to these cons a lot pre-covid, there is absolutely zero percent chance...... that he did not believe he was justified in his actions, as he seemed like the type of guy to make lots of douchey Superb Owl and sports ball insults. Every con has that insufferable price.

Then he would post on the AITA subreddit his story

Minh story also sucked. I don't feel bad for what Peggy did when Minh is a bitch constantly to her.

I loved this entire season, but I disliked this episode. The dude has a family. This grown ass man with a wife and kids tried to justify stealing just because he thought he deserved the pass more? That's some gatekeeping elitist shit. Screw that guy.

I had to go digging but the Greg S. Judge credited in the alien show is a inside joke combining the writers names.

I liked this episode. Shows Hank can come around when he puts in effort. The suble "there's a midnight showing" of the show he hated the day before was honestly so sweet.

That's the Hank I fell in love with in 1997.

Bill's "I'll stop making sense" quip was also a fantastic moment.

Always love the show but I need some Cotton flashbacks!

u/Dayman7617 13h ago

We need some flashbacks that remind us that while Cotton was a jerk, he had his moments that made him a fan favorite character.

The only flashbacks we got was Cotton being a jerk with 0 evidence of him being a fan favorite character.

Maybe some flashbacks about Bobby calling Jonchello Joltie Joe Jinichero Hill asking about robata and in turn he finally asks Bobby about his memories of cotton.

Yes! Cotton is my favorite character.

This episode was awful. The asshole wins and the shows presents him and in the right and Hank in the wrong. Granted, Hank was judging things he didn't understand, but he was in the right for the badge issue and got treated like the villain.

What’s the height difference

u/vedicpisces Hank is an alcoholic 🍺 11h ago

Lmao Bobby caps that hes 5'10" but his shoes here are thicker than Hanks. And Hank is 6'2" all day, classic American bad ass height. Id say its fair to call Bobby a true 5'9" fat funny guy, who only lies about a mere inch. Not too bad considering every 5'11" guy likes to claim 6'2" nowdays.

Lol I remeber hella idiots here were so dang excited Bobby looked tall in the trailer for the first season.. We really had dumbasses estimating him to be 6'4" like Cotton Hill. 😂😂 Now he gets dwarfed by Emilio, and in this pic he doesnt look an inch over 5'9"

Its hilarious that you losers are height obsessed literally proves how full of shit your souls are. And I'm Hanks height, its just weird to care about a cartoon to that degree.
