Atomic Brain was ranked 75th in my top 100.
None of the other eps made the cut. Not a great collection IMHO. But again, I want them all.
Shorts Volume 2 includes... Catching Trouble, What To Do On A Date, Last Clear Chance, A Day At The Fair, Keeping, Clean & Neat, The Days of Our Years

Eesh. This one. I voted for the shorts again on this volume. I'm having trouble remembering anything from the other three that stood out to me as all that enjoyable. So, again, small doses from a bunch of shorts wins out for me.
The Unearthly is pretty much unwatchable. The Atomic Brain and Sidehackers both had their moments, but nothing that sticks out as "favorites" for my tastes.
Perhaps I should wait until I've watched these all again to vote, but I don't feel like it, so watcha goin' do?

Once again, superior audio quality from Shout in this set. However, Sidehackers looks atrocious. It's very washed out and blurred compared to the Rhino.

Tough choice as none of these are favs but I went with Atomic Brain on the strength of the old lady riffs, "I'm old, I creak...." Also I've always found that the biker type movies like Sidehackers, Hellcats, Wild Rebels, are the least enjoyable for me as they're kind of ugly films.

202 Sidehackers (33rd)
518 The Atomic Brain (119th)
320 The Unearthly (144th)
The Unearthly is one of the very worst episodes they ever did and The Atomic Brain, a very similar movie, is not much better.
Sidehackers, for me, is easily to best of these and the only reason I bought the volume.

The Atomic Brain is tops, followed by the Shorts. The other two episodes are way too unpleasant for me to enjoy very much.

Yeah, I can’t say this is one of my go to volumes, but I have to say Sidehackers sticks out for me as my favorite in terms of host segments and riffing, with Unearthly and Atomic Brain following after.

The Atomic Brain
Shorts
The Unearthly
Sidehackers
I'm in the minority but I absolutely hated Sidehackers. It's the first episode I couldn't watch in one sitting. Not Joel and the Bots' fault, I think the movie was just so soul-crushing I couldn't take it.
The Shorts are always an easy watch and I love all the ones included in this compilation. I especially love how morbid they get in Last Clear Chance.
Atomic Brain wins for the jokes on the girls' bad accents and the old lady's theme music.
