'Meerkat Manor: The Next Generation': Desert Submarine
It's probably a good thing that I love the little tykes of the world, and better that they love me back. Otherwise, Meerkat Manor: The Next Generation would have grated on my every last nerve tonight. Instead, I'm working in a room without any cool air whatsoever, so let's get this show on the road!
Ooohhh I need your love, babe... and these Spoilers! Guess you know it's true.
Even with the troubles that normally come with a new group, one would think the Aztecs could catch a break and finally find some land to truly call their own, if to only give old man Zaphod a break. Maybelline looks as if she could use a good day or two off as she's about to give birth any time now.
Of course, as per usual, nothing ever comes easily for Maybelline. Usually there's only one female in a group that's allowed to give birth... that being the dominant female. With the Aztecs, Maybelline is joined in the Manor baby shower by sisters Angie, Bananas and E.J. It's a good thing Zaphod can still perform his sentry duties at the top of his game as the Lazuli family make their first appearance of the new season. Apparently, the Aztecs are on their land (surprise, surprise), and taking no chances with kids on the way, Zaphod leads them in retreat.
Maybelline needs to find a new burrow to give birth, and soon. With little time to decide, she's forced to lead the Aztecs either back to Lazuli territory or risk wandering into the Whiskers domain. She opts to take them back the way they came, and to no one's surprise, the Lazuli are ready and waiting to strike. The first strike Aztecs go after the new dominant Lazuli female, Aretha. Zaphod makes his own stand, and to this writer's shock, the Lazuli beat a hasty retreat.
Hey, when you have everything to lose by taking no action, you do what you can and hope for the best. Unfortunately for E.J., the battle ended with the likely loss of her unborn pups.
On the other side of the Manor, the Commandos welcome Nikita's newest offspring to the family and it's up to the lone female evictee allowed to return to baby-sit them. Venus knows that second chances with Nikita are a rare occurrence. However, Nikita is too preoccupied with the thought of who can impregnate her next. The safe bet is that one of the Jazz Quartet will get past Zorro and knock her up once again... that is, unless Zorro gets to her first.
From the Quartet, Miles is the first to make a go of it, and is promptly rejected by Nikita. Miles reminds me of the guy at a party (read: me) who just wishes the girl would make the first move instead of him. He builds up the courage to make a second go at Nikita, but this time is chased away by Zorro. Baker is next up to bat and immediately swings and misses.
Duke is noticeably missing from the Nikita lovefest, as he's focused his attention on her sister, Rosie and Rosie's daughter, Samba. If it weren't for the meddling kids they were babysitting, Duke would have much better odds at getting in good with either of the gals.
Taking just one look at the feisty little buggers and it's clear the Commando kids are a product of Nikita. Barely two months old and already they're battling for a bigger place within the family. Most pups would normally get more time to really assimilate into their roles within the family. Then again, Nikita is already preggers once again! Miles is most likely the baby daddy, and Zorro is none too pleased with this shocking development. Like the mature, responsible adult he is, Zorro focuses all his rage on Miles.
Back with the Aztecs, Maybelline has finally given birth to her very first litter of pups. With Angie and Bananas nowhere to be found, Maybelline's pups now have the best chance of survival. The new Aztec pups make their debut to the surface, but are just as quickly whisked away when an owl threatens their safety. When the owl is dispatched, the Fab Four kids make their return to the top of the burrow. Even though E.J. lost her own pups in the Lazuli battle, she still provides extra milk to the kids.
It seems McCartney, Lennon, Ringo and Harrison have quite the bright future, eh?
Next time on MM:TNG, it's Zorro versus Miles once again and the newest Whiskers have a rude awakening from some nasty neighbors.
Are we going to need a "Baby Borrowers" spin-off for the meerkats? The newest Commandos... proof that it's actually nurture over nature? Were you as surprised to see the Lazuli as the writer was?

What?
Are you the Hayden from Mournful Mozart?
I'm at a friend's computer.
I'll have to try and find this blog on my computer when I get home later.
That's me. Hi ya!
Hi back to you, Hayden.
Are you going to be posting to this blog? There doesn't seem to be much action so far.
I have so many blogs that I look at and sometimes post to that I'm wondering if I have too many. I see you most everywhere I go on the blogs. Maybe I should narrow it down to just two or three blogs to avoid confusion. I don't know. I'll have to think it over.
I was so bored this morning because there had been no MM last Friday. I ended up watching the Flower movie again.
Here I is!! I found ya. I can't take but two or three blogs. I took one blog off my bookmarker or favorites. I have Norton security until Dec and they are saying it has run out so I must get this taken care of. Talk to you later.....and thanks.
Welcome, Mary. I think this blog could use some more people posting. We'll see if it takes off or not.
I like to know the opinion of other bloggers, so the more the merrier!
I think that Mournful Mozart may be the longest running meerkat blog on here. I know that's where I started.
I haven't been long on any blog. Something caused me to put my two cents in on one and it led to another post, etc. I like a lot of people posting but it seems just a few in spurts. A few times I got so sick ot it and removed all of the blogs from my bookmarker. I checked back and there was an alluring Jasmine post, yes, thats you, helpful in many ways. I wish I could write about the Meerkat family but at this moment all I can see is Sophie and like, that has been said, "she is a softie." Not guts to get firm, just sit there and look pretty and make eyes at Wilson, but he is too afraid of the Sophie relatives that chase him.
Yes, I have too many blogs but there the marrier! More people to talk to. And I have more than you because I take on more than just the zap2it blogs. I can't help it! lol!
I can't understand why we get hooked on this when there is so much other things to do, like e-mail friends and relatives, iternet search, games that I said I would never play on the computer. I love playing the cards and chess. My daughter nd I used to have Yahoo chat back and forth and we would laugh until we had to run to the bath room. I have to say MEERKAT so I can make this a correct blog.
