New Aliens! Humungousaur, Jury Rigg, Ball Weevil
Credit to Swagsif on Ben10toys.net for these pictures. The first batch of redesigns that doesn't make me want to hurt someone, Jury Rigg looks badass. And Ball Weevil is just adorable.
Sorry that they're sideways.

New Omniverse Commercial
Cartoon Network is running a promo for Ben 10 Week featuring a small clip of Cannonbolt and Ben in Omniverse! There isn't a high quality video to post here, but it was on during today's episode and I'm sure they'll show it again.

Catch A Falling Star Review
(All categories are out of 5)
Aliens
In this episode, we saw 5 aliens: Humungoubore, Goop, Clockwork, Swampfire, and Eatle. Let me say it straight out: I despise Humungousaur. He's got boring powers, he's overused, and he has an uninteresting design. I'm also not too keen on Swampfire, for the same reasons (except powers). Mercifully, Humungousaur's appearance here was entertaining and Swampfire's was just a cameo. The always-awesome Goop, official debut of Clockwork and Eatle's new - albeit boring transformation sequence made up for it.
Final: 4.1 points
Plot
Weak. I don't like the romance-centered episodes and the lack of Kevin was not good. As far as plot importance goes, it was a sequel to a filler - would that make it a semi-filler? Regardless, I rarely saw myself excited or gripped by this episode, except when my favorite alien, Clockwork, appeared.
Final: 3.5 points
Fun
Gwen got in one good line. The usual merriment vehicles, Kevin and Rath, were absent, so this episode was a little less fun than the norm. The romantic plot also made this one less tan enjoyable.
Final: 2.6 points
Average: 3.6
...but it gets a bonus point for Clockwork!
Final: 4.2

Ultimate Way Big Revealed
I think it's too close to the original - but then again, so was Ultimate Big Chill. I'm unimpressed, but I'll reserve judgement until we actually see him.
