Oh wow, yeah. Logomania FTW! Loved it, even as it disturbed the hell out of me. I think it's got a lock on the prize, for the sheer ingenuity and uniqueness of it. But was I the only one who was thinking/hoping that the source of the earthquake was going to turn out to be a Gozilla-scaled Ralph Nader?

I loved The Lady and the Reaper. Cerberus as a poodle did it for me.

I forgot to mention that Logorama got bonus point from me for A) not having big-headed 3d animated old people and B) throwing Slurm in there.

Yay Logorama. Awesome concept, fantastic execution. I did wish there was some cause given for the oil eruption/earthquake. It seemed like it was going somewhere but stopped short. Otherwise, loved it.

Cerberus as a poodle was great. Too bad it was one joke, and after the story had ended.

I thought Logorama relied too heavily on shock value without providing anything of substance. It was amusing and all, but after a bit I got tired of "look at how irreverent I am!!!"

If they had antiquities humor throughout, I would have been on board as well.

Boooooooo. Boooooooo.

I gotta believe New Tenants won purely because of its star power. Because it just wasn't that good.

But yay of Logorama.

I thought the opening of New Tenants was pretty terrific, but it went downhill eventually. I'm solidly in the "Abracadabra" camp.
