The perks and troubles with sponsors

For anyone wondering if Sponsor Tripped is an episode worth watching, I would definitely recommend yes.

The episode starts with Lynn and her team winning a soccer match, which gets the attention of Burpin' Burger manager Andre who wants to sponsor Lynn, offering free meals as it's perk. Lynn tries to get her friends sponsored as well (acknowledging them as fellow all-stars), but when Andre said he could only sponsor one of them, Lynn comes up with an idea to get her friends sponsored by multiple businesses so they can get lots of free stuff, and they sure looked very fun.

But then comes the trouble with sponsorships, as the sponsors make Lynn and friends use promotional items during their championship game, which I'm very sure should NOT be allowed especially since all they do is impede the girls during their game, which would be bad for their businesses, but I guess there had to be some conflict.

After a humiliating first round, Lynn and her team decided the free perks were not worth it if it meant losing the game, and quit their sponsorship deals and threw away the promotional items, now able to go from 0-6 to a 7-6 very quickly, winning the game.

Aside from the sponsors being dumb, I enjoyed this fun episode, it is certainly one of Lynn's greater episodes and for now my favorite episode of season 7. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for an episode that has a nicely written portrayal of Lynn.

Vantastic Voyage but not as annoying (Sponsor Tripped isn't worth watching either)

I really really really really really really really really REALLY want to try and not get that angry in this review, but it might not work out due to Sponsor Tripped being apart of this review (spoiler to my thoughts?), just be mindful of it I guess. Lana is one of the better characters in this show, so an episode about her coming once in a blue moon was a nice surprise and didn't disappoint... much.

As a girl who knows nothing about cars, I found it hard to believe how much "durhur Lynn Sr. Get hurt and is stoopid funee funee!!!" humor they got in this episode, like how he thought a car part was a cowbell when they look nothing alike. I'm a teenage girl and I find you the strange one. It's not too big of an issue, but this episode also just has a lack of characters I like and doesn't get good until the second half, which isn't even comparable to something like Candy Crushed (I will never stop praising this episode).

Pretty much everything in the first half is what I would expect from this show. It's just basic baby humor with cute Lana and old guys I don't like. The part at Flip's really fits with my "baby humor" talk. People take off their pants 4 times in this episode all within about a minute. I'm onto you, Nickelodeon....

Second half is completely different. Yeah, it's still "standard Loud House" but it had cool animation and the colors were nice. Vanzilla lore wasn't something on my bingo card! I don't have much to say when I try to praise cartoon episodes rather than rant on them (Dylan if you're reading this please help).

This episode's ending, what ending? A faux pas of a sweet moment, like a Dhar Mann video but animated.

Please believe me when I say this episode is a 6/10, even if it sounds like I mostly harped on it. I'd check it out if not just for Lana.

I'm gonna try and finish the next part of this review quickly because it's 11:49 PM and I'm tired. Sponsor Tripped... SUCKS. Lynn, being the worst character in the show, almost guaranteed this to be a bad episode. Not even 5 minutes in and I regretted watching it.

If this isn't one of the most boring and pointless episodes of the season then SheZow isn't genderfluid. I'm serious, what the heck was the point of this? This plot is just "Lynn abuses sponsors, Lynn has no sponsors... blah blah blah blah everyone is happy in the end".

I hate almost everyone's guts in this episode. Lynn and her friends especially and how they wouldn't stop to think this could be a bad thing (I get that they're "kids", but it's not a valid excuse in my opinion and kind of offends me).

The people who actually want these girls to sponsor them aren't any better. They literally make Lynn walk around in a burger costume DURING A FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP, and no one considers this a problem. "Promotion" is not a valid excuse here when this is not how sponsoring at events work (usually billboards and during breaks if we're referring to games that take place in real life, not on TV), it took me one Google search and watching many NFL games with my mom to figure this out but a professional adult writer can't? Even for the almost nothing of a plot it's so convoluted. I can tell the other reviewer here looks at Lynn's feet pics.

NITPICK TIME! Why is Lainey not here? Why instead is this new girl Carla here? "Representation"? Lainey's already an LGBTQ character, so what was the need to replace her?

It makes me so mad to see Lynn get the spotlight she doesn't deserve. Call me a hater, but I don't care. LYNN IS THE WORST.

1/10, no questions asked. Thanks for reading.
