Somehow....

[Guest WaveCrest]

My favourite segment told by the four elderly devils in the coffee cafe in hindsight is the one with the TV executive. While the Ally McBeal dancing baby spoof was good the highlight for me was the alien autopsy which featured two familar looking agents

[Guest chrisnu]

My favorite segments were probably the second and fourth demons. The second presented an interesting, if not morbid, outlook on the mundane of life, where the fourth was hilarious in his downbeatness. The whole "fat cow" line gets me rolling every time. In some ways, "Somehow, Satan Got Behind Me" was the darkest MLM episode ever!

[Raven Wolf]

I LOVE that episode! It's so profound, yet incredibly funny at the same time. The points made about how the devil doesn't need to do any work to damn our soals, that we do it all to ourselves! So true!

As for the funniest part, besides the dancing devil baby, I love the last part, where they are all leaving, and the last devil (who had had the pissed-in coffie) turned back and said "Hey, kid! GREAT CUP OF COFFIE! Keep up the good work!", and the guy drops his crollers.

GREB

I still love that line in his suicide

note: “I can’t endure this world’s

madness anymore.”

BLURK

A fighter and a philosopher. But

that’s what exactly missing from this

bland day and age. Personalities;

characters; individuals with an

inspirational flair!

...

TOBY

Wait a minute, I’m confused. You mean

the man became a serial killer

because ...

BLURK

Yes: just because.

...

BLURK

One night, he managed to inject some

irony into his blandness: I talked him

into attacking some self-proclaimed

devil worshipper.

INT. PERRY’S VAN – NIGHT

Perry is struggling to secure the devil worshipper, dressed

totally in black, replete with black lipstick and white

pancake makeup. Blurk is the passenger seat, smiling.

DEVIL WORSHIPER

Satan! Satan, save me, please!

INT. DONUT HOLE

BLURK

(quoting the victim)

“Save me, save me!”

The demons cackle.

...

TOBY

(suddenly interested)

Wait a minute. What does this guy

look like?

BLURK

I know how terrible this is gonna

sound, but they all pretty much look

the same to me.

...

ABUM

The evil is too conspicuous. When

people hear about some psycho killer,

and it leads them to thinking about

the nature of evil. That leads to

thoughts about right or wrong -– good

or bad.

GREB

All that thinking can get ugly.

ABUM

Yeah! You don’t want to consider a

crack like that. You just want them

to go through their routine of living

their lives.

BLURK

What do you do to get their souls?

ABUM

I don’t do squat anymore. They do it

all for ya.

TOBY

I’m not sure I’m following.

ABUM

Mankind has progressed to a point in

their dim-witted history where life

has been drained of all of its

enchantment. All you got to do is sit

back and enjoy.

..

GREB

Just take my word for it. Not every

network has such strict Broadcast

Standards and Practices.

Fade to a TV screen: We see grainy videotape scenes of the

censor killing the two alien actors and hear an announcer:

“These extraterrestrial visitors need to phone home ... and

911!” Then superimposed in a psuedo Fox-Show-of-the-Week:

“When Humans Attack!”

...

GREB

You can’t not tell us. What happened?

TOBY

You wouldn’t understand –- it’s personal.

ABUM

How the hell can it be personal?!

...

TOBY

Times change easier than people.

...

SALLY

All good things must come to an end,

huh?

TOBY

Life’s funny that way.

SALLY

Funny’s a funny word for it.

...

TOBY

(voice-over)

But that’s when I saw him.

We see Frank in the doorway. He stops and stares hard at

Toby, then approaches him.

TOBY (CONT’D)

I don’t who he was or what he was

doing there, but he knew what I was.

FRANK

(unsympathetic)

You must be so lonely.

INT. DONUT HOLE

BLURK

There! He merely mistook you as a

lonely boyfriend.

GREB

He thought your relieved sobbing was

hysterical sobbing.

ABUM

Yeah, I told you: this man has no idea

what we truly are.

TOBY

(sadly, repeating Frank)

“You must be so lonely.”

The demons look down, knowing the truth in that sentence.

[Guest Zdenius]

this one is so good, i love it!!

by the way guys i have a question for everybody. What do you all thinks about, maybe mistakes, that some actors appeared in MM series twice or more times as different characters? I mean also in this one cos "Dr. Febricant" was one of the devils did you realised that? also I found more and more actors in different episodes..

MM never had any mistakes as other movies or TV series , this one is OK but its bit strange..

ALSO I Have another question:

I have nearly all episodes recorded from czech TV and i told you guys, the dabing of it is unbelievable. Franks voice is so superb, better than the original, believe me..

and maybe it was traslated wrong but in episode: The Curse of FB this young guy told the girls that Catherine saw a Bobs ghost in her house, etc. Is that right? was this mentioned in any other episodes? is that wrong translation or this guy wasnt right?

[Guest 19:19]

i had no problem with actors coming back and playing a different role.

i am a big fan of Dean Winters and thought it was cool that he was featured in two episodes.(Curse of Frank Black and Matrdafhjdash whatever the episode name is.)

19:19

[Guest WaveCrest]

19:19,

Oh that's him who played Munch's partner Cassidy in the first 13 episodes of the first season of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit on Five! I never knew he appeared in Millennium! This is the same Dean Winters who we're both on about?

[Guest chrisnu]

Yes, that's correct. Dean Winters also had a pretty major role on the TV series Oz.

PS. The S3 episode you're thinking of is "Matryoshka".

[Guest TheUnknownSuperior]

Hey... I took that screenshot.. :)

see.. https://www.thisiswhoweare.8m.com/satanpics.htm

It's funny coming back after all this time away from the community and seeing how stuff from my site has spread to other uses.. including one of the avatars on this site. :) COOL!

And the episode was "Matroyshka" BTW.. :)

[Guest amnesic]

the line "This is unacceptable!" has become intrenched in my families vocab. Regularly we say it. Including when my dogs have been naughty little beggars. Then you'll hear me shouting "This is unacceptable! Completely unacceptable!" at them.
