Hey all, so right away the answer to the title of this video is very, very likely a big no. This is because SMG4 has clearly stated in the comments of the movie that the puzzlevision saga has finished. And obviously, if mr puzzles were to return as a main antagonist, that would mean the saga would not be finished like they have said it is. But interestingly, they have sort of left room for him to possibly return.

We find out mr puzzles’ backstory in his creative control song. He was once actually a normal human, but he struggled in life and had no friends, and so would seek an escape from reality by constantly watching TV. This motivated him to get into the TV business, and it appears he wanted to become the premier show runner in the entire world. He became so dedicated to this goal that he shed his own body and cut off his own head and replaced it with a TV. He decided to specifically to attempt to take over the SMG4 show and its cast as he believed that turning the most stupid show he had ever seen into a masterpiece would prove that he was the best showrunner, and we can assume that his manipulation of the major events in 2023 were a trial run of sorts for him to test manipulating them to craft 5 star worthy shows, and to also see if they were 5 star actors. After the success of last year’s movies, he then moved onto the next phase of his plan, which involved sucking the main cast into his head and creating shows for his new streaming service, puzzlevision. Now that it has been confirmed that the puzzlevision episodes took place inside his TV head from the basement, this explains how he has those god like powers seen throughout the puzzlevision episodes.

Mr puzzles needed one of his show’s created in the tv realm to reach 5 stars, because this would give him full creative control over the smg4 cast in real life, and this would extend to include everyone else who lives in the smg4 universe. From this, we can assume that the 5 stars would grant him complete control over the smg4 channel, and for a met a reason, this gave him control over the entire smg4 universe, since the smg4 universe’s purpose is for the creation of content to be put on the smg4 you tube channel, as we learn in the cosmology saga. Mr Puzzles’ finally achieves this 5 star rating on his movie, after realising that directly controlling the characters was not working, and so he allowed the smg4 cast to regain their awareness and be themselves within the TV realm. This would allow them to create chaos, which has been crucial to the smg4 channel's success, since we all know that memey insanity is what has made smg4 so iconic, and this decision by mr puzzles did ultimately pay off.

However, it is unclear why getting a 5 star rating allowed mr puzzles to take control over the smg4 universe, as this is never explained in the movie. If I was to theorise the reason, perhaps it's because we know its smg4’s role to create the content in the universe. Perhaps mr puzzles usurping smg4 as the greatest content creator within the smg4 universe led to control over the smg4 channel being transferred to him, and with this came control over the smg4 universe. This is why mr puzzles lost his powers over the smg4 universe when smg4 made a show more highly rated than puzzlevision, as mr puzzles was no longer the greatest content creator. The only flaw in this theory is that obviously smg4 does not have the same level of control over the smg4 universe as mr puzzles did in the movie. Or does he? But in all seriousness, since we know smg4 is some sort of in universe manifestation, or self insert, of luke from real life, perhaps the universe controlling powers actually belonged to luke, while the content creation powers only belonged to smg4. We know luke has universe controlling powers, since he literally created the universe and he has the ability to delete the smg4 channel.

After losing his powers, we see mr puzzles become incredibly weakened, and he transforms back into his TV state, making him incredibly vulnerable. I don’t think this shows him dying, rather his mental state just became very shattered. We then see smg4 smash him away with luigi the meat mallet. Since we do not see him get destroyed on camera, this does actually leave writing room for him to be brought back, but as I explained earlier, I find this very unlikely. Although, looking back at the puzzlevision website, the image currenbtly displayed on there has an interesting name. It is called now airing, despite it depicting an end screen similar to the loony toons, and showing mr puzzles' head with the no signal screen, which would imply that nothing should be airing. Some people have said that this is evidence that mr puzzles will return, however i'm unsure
