The Ball

Writers: Lauren Faust, Craig McCracken, Dave Thomas, Ben Joseph, Tim McKeon, Eddie Trigueros, Alex Kirwan, Johanna Stein, Greg White

Date: January 10, 2014

Synopsis: "Wander and Sylvia must help a bunch of aliens save their planet from a giant dog."

This is an interesting episode. Any episode with a planet of relaxation is good enough in my book. Let's dive into this. First off, Buster is a great nonthreatening antagonist. He gets his cute dog moments, but we know he's a threat when he keeps inadvertently destroying the planet. I like Wander's dedication to helping the aliens out, showing how great of a character he is. There's a lot of fun gags with how he and the aliens try to fend off Buster. The climax is definitely intense and the ending is both satisfying and funny. There's a good moral on facing your problems head on. That ending gag solidified this as a good episode.

Side Note: Beeza, the leader of the aliens, is voiced by Tara Strong.
