Friday the 13th: The Series Ep. 29 And Now the News Review

And Now the News originally aired on October 10, 1988. This is Jack's fourth time not to appear in an episode. This was an all right episode. For the first time this season, it felt like it did during the first season, which is a very good thing. The cursed antique is an old radio that announces what you're supposed to do in order to receive the reward it promises you. Say you want an A on your final exam, it will say you got the A, but you'd have to kill people in order to get it. The object even attempts to tempt Micki and Ryan at the end of the episode because Micki's tired of how tough it's been collecting cursed objects. They refuse it, obviously, but it was a very funny ending. Once again, Jack is not fully needed to make the show work. I love the trio, but it's not mandatory to make an episode enjoyable.
