MB: An Empire in Turmoil --- The Next Generation

Name: bob
Position: God
Age: Indeterminate
Status: Immortal
First Appearance: Now You See Me...
Last Appearance: Recurring character

bob is God. We all know it. And in season two's opener, Now You See Me... he made his first appearance when Urban dreams of destroying all noobs. Bob appears to him and tells him he is fated for much greater things, a position Urban resists until he is shown a vision of the future without him, in season four's This Was Your Life and realises that he has indeed a higher calling. As a result of this, he instigates the now famous Reconvening, where the original Council of Ten, or what remains of it, return to the show and with some new additions propel the arc through the next three seasons.

The frequent appearances of bob have led to many accusations that the show relies too much on religion, a question which Trollheart, who reimagined the series and is its Executive Producer and showrunner, responded to thus online: “Religion? Ah, who the **** cares about that? As long as it gets bums on seats, I'll bring the devil into it if I have to.”

Interestingly, The Batlord was cast in this role three weeks later, just as season five began...

How was Urban shown a vision from a future episode if it hadn't been filmed yet?

Meh, looks like either can be right, though I guess I should really have used the word unquote after it.

Anytime that happens, a wizard did it.

Your source just completely contradicted itself on a single page. "NEVER OMIT PROPER PUNCTUATION, REGARDLESS OF QUOTE/UNQUOTE!", and then "NEVER USE BOTH PUNCTUATION AND QUOTE/UNQUOTE!"

I'm gonna need a source that makes sense.

Name: TechnicLePanther
Position: Car Salesman
Age: 34
Status: Deceased
First Appearance: Oh, She's a Beauty!
Last Appearance: Over the Hills and Far Away, Part III

TLP was not what you'd call a popular character. He lied, cheated and slept with other characters' wives, and that was on his good days. But his luck ran out when he tried to sell William the Bloody a secondhand used Ford Astra. When William was involved in a pile-up on Freeway 109, and barely survived the crash, he went back to the car lot looking for TLP. But he had just left, having been warned of the imminent arrival of the irate cop by his brother. A fierce car chase ensued, during which some cinematography was utilised which has since been described as “like that pod race in The Phantom Menace” and used up most of the budget for that episode, leading to the only other scene being Janszoon looking out his door and saying his only line in the episode, Over the Hills and Far Away, Part III, “Nah, looks like it's raining. Let's stay in.”

The episode met with severe criticism, both for the gory and bloody death of TLP at the hands of William, the recklessness with which they both powered through a whole line of schoolchildren and also the complete absence of any other subplot, or indeed any of the other characters. Trollheart has since said it was his “least favourite episode of season nine, unless you count Beer Ahoy!, which I think everyone who's seen the show agrees is not only the worst of that season, but of the entire show so far.”

I told you, a wizard did it. Now sit back and watch the nice flashing lights.

Please, please, please me????

The Batlord · 12-25-2015, 10:33 AM

No, this will be settled. I'm surprised that a supposed grammar Nazi could be content while his grammatical knowledge was in question.
