EPISODE #1-TOMMY'S FIRST BIRTHDAY
DESCRIPTION:This is the very first televised episode. After seeing a television commercial for "Huskies' Choice" brand dog food, Tommy belives Spike's dog food will turn him into a dog. Tommy persuades Angelica, Phil, Chuckie, and Lil to help him.
NOTES:
-The grownups invited (besides Tommy's parents) are Betty, Howard, Boris, Minka, and Drew. We don't see Chas until "Barbecue Story", and we don't see Charlotte until "The Santa Experience".
-Tommy wears a red shirt and overalls. He doesn't wear his blue shirt until "Barbecue Story".
MY RATING: *****
"ANGELICA?!"-Phil and the others discover Angelica was invited.
If you take away the clock, the picture is of Tommy approaching Spike's food bowl.
EPISODE #2-BARBECUE STORY
DESCRIPTION:Yippee! It's a Fourth of July picnic, and Grandpa gives Tommy his favorite toy-a brand new ball! Unfortunately, Angelica takes this opportunity to blackmail Tommy. He refuses, and his ball gets hit over into the yard next door--where a horrible dog lives. Tommy, being the daredevil he is, goes into the yard to get it back.
NOTES:
-Tommy's famous phase, "A baby's gotta do what a baby's gotta do", is said in this episode. Also, Tommy also says "Aw, c'mon. Don't be a baby." This phase was used most in the early ones.
-Tommy and Angelica wear their normal clothes for the first time in this episode.
-According to
Mr. Mindykowski, the episode title sequence (
here's the normal one)was only about 1/3 the regular time!!!
EPISODE #3-originally untitled
DESCRIPTION:Stu and Didi have to go to an important dinner at Chez Ennui with Mr. Mucklehoney. However, due to lack of babysitters, Tommy is forced to go with them. Tommy wanders off, and makes a mess of the fancy restaraunt.
NOTES:
-This episode was unnamed-no title sequence-until the summer of 1997. That's when the episode was entitled "Waiter, There's A Baby In My Soup".
-"Ennui" is French for "bordeom".
