[2020/04/15 - TV Binging]
Title Text: YOU WON'T EVEN REMEMBER YOU HAD LUNCH, OR WHERE IT IS

Ugh, doesn't it suck when the best theme park ever forgets about the theme that made it famous? When did the theme park forget that it was all about theme parks?

Theme Park World lives!! I would have bet anything Keene shut that place down years ago. Or at least changed the name.

If Corona won’t get you then poorly conceived rides will. If you break social distancing to go on a ride like that the pin you probably deserve what’s coming to you.
.
This might be as close to a double date as well get with those four.

I hope Rick isn’t expecting people to know what a “cobra twist” or a “bat wing” is.

“Original vision” was Keene letting Duke throw a dart at a list of names then when it missed deciding “ehh that’s good enough.”

Ah, the return of the TV. Haven't had a scene like this since Jan. 1, 2014. So 6 years and some change.

I especially like Tarot, she seems so happy even asleep.

Peanut's stuck there. He can't move. He's being forced to watch THE EVISCERATOR (TM) commecrials lest he wishes to awake everyone.

You know the world is bad
when theme parks bore Peanut
or is he now feeling,
his life is in a rut?
A girl on either arm
and Max down by his side
it really does confirm
that Peanut leads this pride.
Tarot looks so sweet,
sleeping with her big guy
as Grape sleeps like a Cat;
listening on the fly.

You can tell THE EVISCERATOR was designed with ferrets in mind. It's a lot harder to break a spine when it's made of rubber.
Also: Awwwww.

I feel I outta feel concerned for Max since he's sleeping face down into a pillow, but I've been sleeping in a similar fashion for years now, so...I guess he's fine. :lol:

This is so sweet, I love seeing these four characters happy together, and hey, TV as a character. Awesome strip Rick!

The four of them are so adorable resting together!
This is how their relationships started, remember? Resting in front of the TV.

Aww, our two lovely couples are so cute sleeping together! :D Peanut is still awake, but still for little. :P What? With a such roller coaster it's no more an amusement park... :? How can it even be legal? They should close it... :roll: Can't be all serious, come on. :P But I really agree with you, Peanut. :) Weird looking way to sleep for Maxwell. ;)

Not sure Tarot's totally asleep, although it is possible her tail's going in her slumber. (Movement lines in #4)

You know reading this strip the first few times I didn't even notice Max in the lower right corner. LOL

Peanut's looking really bored
While on TV, silly ads,
Surrounded by a friendly horde
Of friends on soft pads
Of foam they rest.

Theme Park World's lost sight of what it was,
So says Peanut pup,
And seeing everyone doze does
Make Grape say yup,
It's no longer the best.
You're a wonderful person! You can do this! Yes, you, person reading this!

Before I saw the strip, I was just thinking that we hadn’t seen Max and Tarot recently, and here they are snuggled up with Grape and Peanut. Love it!

I will be so humored if when they wake up, one of them (probably Grape or Max) wants to go to that theme park that Peanut just rolled his eyes at. LOL

I kind of like how while Housepets has become a more ensemble cast over the years but Peanut and Grape are still as the main characters and they still get into all kinds of fun.

This is one of those well-written jokes where it's really funny either way. Either way you can bet HP-verse Cedar Point is already trying to top it.
