This is a solid episode. It has a nice take on The Boy Who Cried Wolf, as well as a lesson that everybody knows, lying is never a good thing. Maggie had to learn that out the hard way, more harder than when she was finding soil erosion in the marsh.

This show is pretty underrated. It kind of reminds me of Fraggle Rock a few times, mostly because the theme music was composed by Philip Balsam and Dennis Lee and was sung by Balsam himself. Along with environmental lessons, slice of life morals, as well as several Muppet performers who previously worked on Fraggle Rock. Including Gord Robertson, Trish Leeper, Wende Welch, James Rankin, Fred Stinson, Stephen Braithwaite, Dan Redican, Jani Lauzon, and John Pattison. Gord Robertson himself later went on to work on Zoboomafoo with the Kratt Brothers. Needless to say, Groundling Marsh needs its own DVD release.

I didn't think the episode was good or terrible, just weak, I mean, Larry and Bob crying at the end came out of nowhere, and it wasn't needed! I mean, if it just cut back to the counter top with them just fine, this could've been redeemed. While the animation not phenomenal, it's still pretty good, again, you can tell they were trying, they just didn't have the budget to do as well as Larry-Boy! and the Fib from Outer Space! or Josh and the Big Wall! but they were really trying to make it look like the previous two. The only good things I like on this video were the Salesmen's Rap and His Cheeseburger.
