EPILOGUE

So what did I think? Combining solid action with some pretty funny scenes, it is a very good episode that hooked me the moment I watched it.  I really like the way we are introduced to each of the characters. Kid has a good introduction, but gets too wimpy when they first catch Scarface. Jimmy shows why he is the coolest TV character of all time and runs rampant with all kinds of awesomeness.  Cody is obviously going to provide good comic relief and Ike and Buck show they will provide their own unintentional comic relief in upcoming episodes as they give me sign language encounters to goof on. The Kid is sort of portrayed as the leader, but it won’t last long.

The first episode is indeed one to show the non-believers. After all, it showed us that JIMMY RULES!

Now for some post-review awards.  As y’all may or may not know, I’m somewhat famous (amongst my seven reads) for my legendary size 11 biker boots.  Therefore, winners will receive the Golden Boot award.  We’ll start with awards for “classic scene” and “mark-out remark.”  Going forward I’ll give awards for you readers as well.  In particular, I’ll be looking for a “Rider Review Mark of the Review.”  Now onto the awards…

The Golden Boot for the “classic scene” of the episode goes to…

Jimmy’s introduction. It’s just too cool, especially the “feels about right” line.

And the Golden Boot for the “mark-out remark” goes to…

Sam Cain with, “That won’t matter to you, you’ll be the first I drop.”

Congratulations to Sam Cain on being awarded the very first “line of the episode.”

That’s a wrap, folks. Some of you will agree with some of the things I said, some will agree with everything I said, some with disagree passionately with almost everything I said, some won’t have read this far, and some will be begging me to hurry up and review the other episodes. Whatever category you fall in, please send me your comments, criticisms, suggestions, etc. You might want to compliment me or complain about my treatment of your favorite rider. Either way is fine. The most inspired e-mails might even spur a topic for me to discuss in an upcoming Rider Review.

Please feel free to email me or leave a comment below.

In the immortal words of Todd Snider: “Life’s too short to worry, life’s too long to wait, too short not to love everybody, and life’s too long to hate.”

I’m just trying to get ahead in a world full of freaks, folks. This has been my opinion; you could be wrong.
