The Warner Bros. crossover fighter returns with more characters and modes, but is it enough to make it a long term success?

Can’t remember the last time I violently snorted like I just did watching the Conan O’Brien episode of Hot Ones. A real deep air sucker at a worryingly piggy volume. Give it an Emmy

Every review should come with a Muppet energy reading from 1-10. Stars just aren’t cutting it
