I got home from work last night and the first thing my daughter wanted me to do was sit down with her and watch an episode of Emperor’s New School she had seen earlier that day; “Demon Llama.” And, I have to say it was definitely a very funny …

This episode is a letdown, really that’s all there is to it. Between the fact that it follows up the extra-ordinary “Soft Light” and comes right before the season finale, you’d think that this would be a big episode. Sadly, the opposite holds true and the whole …
