What could happen now on Frisky Dingo? [Warning: Spoiler]

I’ll keep this brief.  After seeing episode 204 of Frisky Dingo on AdultSwim.com and then on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim last night, I’m very curious to know how the writers plan to resolve the fact that both Killface and Xander Crews appear to have been shot repeatedly at pointblank range by the mystery assassin chick.  Unless it tuns out that neither was actually shot, it strikes me as though they have written themselves into a corner.

Also, can anyone tell me why the heck the show is called Frisky Dingo?  I don’t recall anything on the first season ever explaining the meaning of the title.

Is Frisky Dingo on its triumphant return in season two?

So, I wasn’t particularly impressed with episode 201 of Frisky Dingo, available for viewing last week on Adult Swim Fix.  The whole “Killface solving global warming and running for president” plot twist was a bit too farfetched for me – other shows like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Robot Chicken provide enough random plot dynamics to keep me satisfied.

Because I enjoyed season 1 so much, I thought I would give Frisky Dingo a second chance and watch episode 202.  It seemed particularly short and unimpressive, until the last 15 seconds.  No spoiler here, but I have to say that my curiosity is renewed and I am very interested to see how the show will continue to develop this season.

 I don’t understand why Shin Chan Episode 9 has, as of this posting, attained almost 60,000 more views than the next most popular show available on Adult Swim Fix this week.  The episode is only rated 6/10, less than that of the 2 next-most-watched shows – Frisky Dingo Episode “201″ and Robot Chicken Episode “Rabbits on a Roller Coaster” - each of which is a premiere and ranked 7/10.

Don’t get me wrong – I’m not opposed to Shin Chan, especially when he is awkwardly horny with his mom’s friend.  However, I would have thought that premiere episodes of Adult Swim shows would fare better against a re-run.  I’ve even watched the episode of Shin Chan, which I recall having seen once before, and couldn’t figure out why it got so many views.  Can someone please shed some light on this subject?
