These episodes rocked! Plain and simple! Too bad Lazlo didn't appear much in either episode though. Anywho, here are my reviews.
Samson's Mail Fraud: First good Samson episode in a while! I loved how he used his magic tricks to persuade the camper's that that magician was his friend, as well as Edward's 'happy dance' when he realized he got a letter from 'him'. I loved it when that rabbit called Samson a girl, and his botched tricks were laughable (Especially were Dave was literally sawed in half.) At least the real magician came at the end (And actually turned Samson into a girl in the process), thanks to Lazlo himself. GRADE: A-
The Haunted Coffee Table: Lots of good things about this episode! First Slinkman running after Raj tells the story and no one else is scared but him, also this is one of those rare episodes where Raj is paired with Slinkman, and they work well together trying to make the Haunted Coffee Table happy. Especially when their heads exploded when the dust fell back on it. AAt least Lumpy got his just desserts in the end and the table got what it needed back. GRADE: B+

I guess I should review these episodes since I'm such the CAMP LAZLO FAN! ...Or AM I!??!?!?!?!?!
Samson's Mail Fraud: My attention was more focused on the design of Samson to the design of Samson from The Nothing Club. Yeah, he lost some weight. Aside from being distracted by something as a stupid yet analytical observation (espeically reading an old print out email from Murray himself that I found while cleaning my room today), I also noticed that Samson never learned his lesson in LYING! OH SNAP! Whatever. I think I found a mistake when Mr. Buns (is that the bunny's name?) comes out to talk to Samson... and he left the door open and then the next scene it was closed like MAGECK. I also smiled when Clam said, "YOU TRICKSTER!" because all the people who go on the chatrooms on chatroom days know that I say that all the time. I should be famous. The episode was okay... but the ending made no sense whatsoever; seriously, I thought there was gonna be a big clever ending after Samson told the guys that he lied... but NOOOOOOOO. Not a very good episode for me, yo.
The Haunted Coffee Table: Slinkman's character in this episode hurt me in the inside. It just wasn't him... and it broke my non-existant heart... because I'm a cold cold human being that despises the world and all that inhabit it. I thought it was kinda amusing seeing him and Raj act like a married couple when the feng shui(OMG I MISPELLED THAT! AND I PLAY ANIMAL CROSSING TOO! >_<) didn't work out too well. HAHAHA! I actually laughed hard when Slinkman went "JINKEYS!" because I'm a super huge Scooby Doo fan (vasically everything before What's New? Scooby Doo. The new ones aren't interesting enough... and plus they aren't suppose to be in the day light!) but that's it. The episode wasn't all that fun or amusing... so whatever.
Eh... they better get better.

I was looking at the design of Sampson too! He did look kinda different, but I couldn't tell how,

I’ve been noticing Samson’s character design changing, like, so much. I’ve noticed at least ten different things that have changed of his character design throughout the show so far. I dunno how I notice some of ’em though, but I guess changes tend to stick out to me. Heh… “Samson’s Mail Fraud”: Once I saw the title of this episode, I just KNEW he was gonna use his working at the Post Office to his advantage. xD I thought this episode was pretty funny; Samson was funny doing the Flash paper thing. (Funny, I heard that stuff is, like, dangerous; ’cause of, highly-flammable chemicals or something. I’ll bet it’s against Camp Rules to have… xD) And I liked the “This Scene Edited Due to the Graphic Nature of Samson’s Gut-Wrenching Heartbreak.” screen. And where Mr. Buns went, “I can’t stand to see a little girl cry.” to Samson. xD That one part with Dave being sawn in half made me cringe. ; I did not expect the ending, though; I thought Lazlo would tell someone and then they’d all know or something and Samson would have some ’splainin’ to do… Didn’t expect him to get the real magician though! As for “The Haunted Coffee Table”: This episode was really, strange. O.o;;; I figured that was to be expected given the title alone though. xD I thought it was funny Slinkman’s reaction to the story. And that Lumpus sawed off the legs to tie them to the other table, as opposed to just borrowing the taller one. xD And them trying to make the coffee table happy was pretty funny as well. xD

Samson's Mail Fraud I enjoyed this episode. But I do have to agree with you that (While Samson to me is a funny character) he does seem to get too many episodes to himself lately. But otherwise this episode was good. I loved the part when we see the "Scene Edited" shot, or that the magician thought that Samson was a girl. I expected more out of Lazlo though. Grade: B
The Haunted Coffee Table A bit on the Twilight Zone-ish side, but the better of the two episodes. Raj and Slinkman actually worked well together for an episode. I laughed when they were arguing over the placement of Slinkman's furniture. Bottom line is that Lumpus got what he deserved for taking the legs off of Slinkman's table. Grade: A
Overall Grade: A-
PS: Slinkman in a maid outfit and Edward's cute "happy dance" was hilarious.
Also, less episodes about Samson would be nice.

A little late on this one but ah well...better late than never. Like a lot of folks here, I'm getting a little tired of the Samson centered episodes. This one wasn't too bad I thought. It involved the other characters nicely. That happy dance by Edward was pretty cool. The way Samson's Mail Fraud ended left me scratching my head a bit going...what the heck just happened. Overall though it was great. Poor Dave being sawed in half. Glad he survived the ordeal hehehehe. As for The Haunted Coffee Table, I was real thrilled with that one. Interesting having an episode centered exclusively on Slinkman and Raj. Didn' t know Raj had such a guru on interior decorating. Overall great episodes. Looking forward to the new ones this Wednesday. Take care. Later.

It's Review Time!
Samson's Mail Fraud: Well, I only got to see the first one, and boy Edward was quite a jerk. Poor Samson, maybe everyone ignores him because he has had a bit too many episodes! But this was funny, especially when Samson turned into a girl LOL! Grade B+
The Haunted Coffee Table: Not watched yet.

Samson's Mail Fraud: I felt so sorry for Samson at the beginning (when the others teased him about not getting any mail), but I liked Edward's role in this episode. I actually expected the ending to be a confession from Samson. Instead, Mr.Buns "told" the story, Edward knew he wasn't Presto, and the others went after him. The only thing I would've like to have seen was a moral about the consequences of lying. It was cute, however, to see Presto talk to Samson (with Lazlo driving the limo) and him turning into a girl. I couldn't believe how many times Samson WAS mistaken for a girl, lmao! 4.5 out of 5.
The Haunted Coffee Table: I never saw Slinkman so SCARED before. Over a COFFEE TABLE! It was cute though. I liked how he and Raj tried figuring out why the coffee table was "haunted". I loved the scene where Slinkman asked Raj if he was crying because he yelled at him (after Raj placed the table somewhere else... I think), and he responded with, "No. I'm crying because you have no taste!!!" Well although I like Lumpus, he got what he deserved. It goes to show you that if you chop off the leg's of someone else's coffee table, you'll more than likely BECOME one. Haha! A few things "classic": "Jinkeys!", Slinkman dressed as a maid, dust floating, the heads of Raj and Slinkman "exploading", no one scared by Raj's story at the camp-fire, and Clam hitting Lumpus and saying "Bad table!" while he and Lazlo were playing ping-pong on "the Lumpus table". 5 out of 5
