Hey, Frank already reappeared as a ghost once...

You stole my thunder! I was just about to mention Frank's cameo in Soultaker!

I forgot about that. So how did Frank get cremated then? He just disappeared in that episode when Torgo the White took him to Second Banana Heaven. Dr. F couldn't find him.

Maybe his soul went to heaven but his corporeal body remained on earth (or in Deep 13)?

Pak-Man

And Clayton Forrester was turned into a space baby to be re-raised by Pearl. I don't remember them addressing it after the jump to Sci-Fi, but I don't recall him actually dying.

In the first Sci-Fi episode, didn't Pearl say that she re-raised Clayton and then killed him (after she is revealed as the Lawgiver)?

Yes.

Loved the new season!

I'd rank the episodes like this:

Lords of the Deep
Mac and Me
The Day Time Ended
Killer Fish
Ator
Atlantic Rim

But even my least favourite episode was really solid.

I have a feeling that they plan to end every season on a silly cliffhanger and barely explain it the following season. And I'm into it.

Also, do we think the extra canister hole might mean a surprise Christmas episode?
FINE

I hope not. The possibilities of the Mads being force to riff has too  much potential to just throw away.

We already saw their idea of riffing, and it was pretty weak. Don't know that we need any more of that?

I would swap Mac & Me with Lords of the Deep, but other than that minor difference, that's how I would rank them as well.

And yeah, they must have left one slot empty for a reason, so here's to hoping for a surprise episode.

The top four are all so close for me, I could see the order shift on repeat viewings.

It wasn't an empty slot, it changed when the trap activated and took Kinga and Max away.

It still was an empty slot, J&tB just used it for their trap.
FINE

Woot Woot! I'm finally going to be able to watch the new eps. It wasn't easy but...

I'm in another country and has to download a VPN. That was the easy part. Netflix wouldn't let me pay for netflix in the country I'm in with email accounts I had used before in the past. It seems like this may be an issue with Netflix and have nothing to do with trying to sign up for their service in another country. Anyway, I tricked it into letting me set up a new account by using a new email (which meant having to create a new email account). Then I signed out. Turned on my VPN. And signed back in. Woot, now I got American Netflix.

Only one problem. I've got a raging stomach problem at the moment so will I watch an ep tonight? Not sure. But at least I'm going to soon.

My rankings (this will change as I re-watch the episodes)

The Day Time Stopped
Atlantic Rim
Lords of the Deep
Killer Fish
Mac and Me
Ator (this is last because I've the Rifftrax version sooooo many times and thought Rifftrax did a better job with it)
