Season 13 - Special Event 14


Special Event: Tom & Crow’s Unsupervised Year End Review Revue
Premiere Date: Friday, March 3, 2023, 5:00 PM PST

Mmm, the closing seasonal overview was short, and a pretty straight forward clip show with trailers and highlights sprinkled throughout - the biggest laugh was Kelsey's Crow talking about how everybody loved the new crew with not one complaint to be had, lmao. Magic Voice is ever present, Synthia pops in, as do Waverly and Growler. Not a lot of sizzle in the show, but good memories shared. 

To sum up: While I don't think 13 was their very best season (that honor still goes to 5 and 8), it was arguably the most fun. The event like feel of it all, the extra material (like Synthia Selects). Even bungles could turn into happy positives (white dot). 

13 featured many happy returns (Joel, Magic Voice, Penn, viewer mail) and wonderful new additions (Emily, Kelsey and Conor, Turkules and Dr. Kabahl, the strange financier from the future). There were memorable songs (Mothercrabber), sketches (Complimentary wrestlers, the Shape of Crimes to Come, Crow’s dead, during the Munchie Livestream), inventions (The Gilbert and Sulli-phone, The Duck Tape dispenser for Duct Tape) and special guests within the episode (Mrs. Kelly, The Skull, Friar Nolte) and out, during the after-show livestreams. 

There were growing pains for the Gizmoplex, and some things that didn't come together (watch parties), still, it was a hell of a ride - from the very first announcement, to the Kickstarter campaign, through the season itself. 

And that's a wrap. I haven't done this much work on the blog in ages and I'm a little pooped, so it's definitely time for go to bed. 

See you next year(?)

And because they are grand, let's close with Gizmoplex art for the human hosts.
