A Fresh Take on Animation
In reference to the usual episodes, this episode follows a different pattern. Reviews highlight that Episode 2 turns to heart and humor to level 10. The episode replaced small gags with an emotional journey, which turned into a kind of meditation. It is like more serious animated shows, as it addresses serious philosophical issues but retains the comic nature of the show.
Where to watch?
The episode is available on Adult Swim and Cartoon Network. Max also provides next-day streaming for viewers who missed the initial broadcast. Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel are the creators of the animated series that is still being aired in the eighth-episode run of Season 3 with new episodes airing on a weekly basis.

What is unique about this episode?
The episode, storyboarded by Hannah Daigle, stands out for doing something “quite unexpectedly fresh” with the character of Mr. Frog. The comedy works to the benefit of the story instead of vice versa and provides a refreshing shift to the series. An episode of the classic Mr. Frog series, or rather, the third season of the show, “Mr. Frog” and “Mr. President,” aired on Adult Swim on the first night the third season aired as an extension of his return.
