A wonderful episode.
In this episode Mr. Mxyzptlk is causing a bunch of crimes to lure the Super Friends, so that he can film them for the movie he is making, that will be entitled The Rise and Fall of the Super Friends.
This is one of the few episodes of The New Super Friends to use one of the classic DC Comics villains. Luckily that villain here is Mr. Mxyzptlk, who is one of my favorite Super Man villains. This episode shows everything I love about this character. I love how his motivation is nothing more than to have what he considers a fun time. He shows that here with a delightfully corny sense of humor and some really fun set pieces with our heroes. This episode put a real smile on my face and actually made me laugh quite a few times. His various attempts to defeat the Super Friends provide us with some really fun action scenes. These action scenes also help set up what makes Mxyzptlk such a great villain, that he is corny and silly, but still a real threat to our heroes. There is also a wonderful atmosphere to the haunted house later in this episode.
All in all this is a very fun episode.
