A Cartoonish Life

YES! I'm not putting this off any longer, dammit!! (Especially when I read that The Dairi Burger was considering doing "Jem" recaps as well: I love the Dairi Burger to bits, but just please let me do the "Jem" recaps!!)



See? Even Jem herself is thrilled that I'm back to recapping her show.

So on the last episode...

--Jem and the Holograms start filming their movie.
--The Misfits were jealous haters.
--Jerrica/Jem was PMSing hardcore, which explained a lot of her attitude throughout this episode.
--Pizzazz got her dad to buy out the movie studio, so the Misfits can horn in on the movie.
--Eric Raymond managed to blow the right people to stay out of federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison, and Harvey Gabor (Pizzazz's dad) put him in charge of the movie.
--Behind the scenes, the Misfits did all that they could to make Jem and the Holograms miserable, like talking smack about Jem behind her back to the hair and makeup artists.
--Kimber got jealous of Jem (again).
--Rio got pissy because Nick Mann was macking on Jem.
--Clash showed up and banged her cymbal bracelets and was annoying.
--Anthony Julian and Eric Raymond got into it, Eric fired Anthony, and Eric made himself the new director.
--Pizzazz macked on Rio and pissed Jem off.
--Eric bossed everyone around, didn't really do much directing.
--The Misfits took over the movie's press conference.
--Jem HAD. IT. UP. TO. HERE. with the Misfits' shenanegans, got into it with Pizzazz, told the Misfits and Eric off, and quit the movie. The Misfits rejoyced.
--Jerrica got the bad news that Ba'Nee is going blind.

....Oh, and Jerrica never told Rio that she's really Jem.
