Pros:

Extra helpings of Max, C.O.P.S, and pretty much all the best characters weve seen so far; A Giant Spork; Non-US patriotism.
Great script; strong puzzle elements; good art direction; great voice-over work; Sybil and Abe Lincoln¿s head.

Cons:

Not as gut-bustingly funny as Episode 5: Reality 2.0.
Minimal satire; Bosco is underutilized; slightly disappointing ending.
