#every new moment of season 16 is so funny

[rockpaperimpala]

So about Netflix's the Last Airbender....

I am literally so confused you guys. You made me think I would HATE this show. And I LOVED it. Me. Known perfectionist and hater.

Katara was lovely. Yes, she started as a more soft spoken character than her cartoon version, but she was still passionate and hopeful throughout, just visibly unsure of herself. I think people were thrown off by this actress' natural way of expressing herself, which is Different from animated katara for sure, but not bad. Then she spends the whole season growing in Confidence and Fire. I Adored her fight with Paku, it really did feel like a payout of the whole season's development, and the bending kicked ass!

The Bending Kicked ass!!! The martial arts was fun and fast and creative and exciting! It looked SO good. That alone would be enough reason for me to watch and enjoy any show.

Zuko's actor was fantastic. He really captured the rage and confusion of this 16 year old banished prince. And there were so many Added moments between him and Iroh wich to me enriched their relationship. Like YES! This is why I'm watching, to see more of them, to see things done a little differently.

Iroh facing the consequences of his actions at Ba Sing Se!! That's what I'm here for!

Zuko's relationship with the men on his ship! That's what I'm here for!

The Extra layers we get to Ozai manipulating his children!

Also no one is talking about Admiral Zhao, who I had SO much fun with. I feel like they slightly fleshed out his character in a really dramatic way, really developing the hubris and frankly insane grasping ambition of someone who would kill the moon. I completely enjoyed this wilder, less controlled version of him, who comes up through the season from basically nothing and no one!

I am OBSESSED with King BUMI and his anger and disillusionment with the world! Like this was SO real. Living a hundred years of futile war would do that!!!! It is one of my favorite changes to the whole series. This new layer of emotion and character depth is what I'm here for!

Sokka was SO funny. He literally had me laughing out loud so often. That actor GETs Sokka, and GETS the way his humor is delivered. And is also able to tap into the more vulnerable side of him. People said he was "obsessed" with leadership. WHAT? That is a young person trying desperately to do his best and to try and find his place in the world, to figure what he has to offer. I loved his pride at hearing the Mechanist say that he would make a good engineer, and the sweetness of the moment that Yue's father says that he can be a hero without being a warrior. Sokka does so much growth in this series, in understanding himself and life.

And his chemistry with Suki was adorable!! I even like him and Yue (who was a totally unexpected sweetheart, despite her terrible wig)!! Like he has that same ability that Sokka has in the original to Connect with people.

Aang was great! He WAS fun loving and sweet and funny. I don't know what you guys wanted. Cartoons are always bigger and more exaggerated than live action. People's eyes swell up an, birds fly around their heads, and there are funny sound effects. That larger than life quality is the strength of animation! You have to look for different strength in live action. Like the SUBTLETIES of the acting choices. This little actor brought so much kindness, innocence, and strength to Aang.

And I FELT his frustration at being asked to do this at 12, his fresh hope anytime it looked like someone more experienced would be able to help him and no one did, and that's why he didn't learn waterbending this season, because he kept waiting for an freaking ADULT to show him the way, to help him carry this immense burden, but every adult he meets asks him for help instead, asks him to carry it himself, and then the finale hits and he realizes that there won't be any adults helping, he does have figure this out himself, and he makes the hard choice, takes on responsibility more than his years and offers himself to the ocean spirit, and he might have been lost entirely if not for Katara!

And that counter running theme to the show pays off: that he doesn't have to do it alone. He may not have more experienced guidance, because the adults have let him down again and again, but his friends will be with him, and they will figure it out together!

This is there throughout the series! Katara tells him this about learning waterbending, when he says he still wants to wait. Bumi tells him this in the palace at Omashu, and Aang sees the faith he has in his friends repaid!

I like these changes! And the show still found time for silly fun adventures and character building moments.

The show was never going to be the animated original. That is already a Masterpiece, and it frankly did NOT need to be adapted at all. I did not WANT a live action adaptation. I was adamantly convinced I would hate it. But the changes that they netflix show gave are what I Iike most about it. If I want to see Zuko say "you rise with the moon, I rise with the sun," I will go watch the animated original, because that version is perfect. And now, if i want to see Zuko say "Lu ten would have been proud to have you as a father," and see iroh pull him into a tight hug, I can watch this live action version, which is very good too. I'm going to disagree with most of the people on here and say that the Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender, DOES capture the heart of what we liked about the original show. It's spirit, fun, excitement, and characters. And the changes made are the reason we should be watching.

[follow-the-compass-home]

“She’s dead, Scar.” He hears Grian’s voice whisper next to him. “You won.”

The words snap him out of it, not fully, but just enough to make him realize that Pearl is gone. The zombie is hitting him, but it’s such a meaningless thing in the greater scheme of things, after all the things he’s done to get here.

An exhilarated, wet laugh bubbles in his chest.

“How did the guy with no friends win?” Scar whispers. He can’t believe he’s made it this far and yet… here he is. Alone.

He climbs out of the hole where he’s just killed Pearl and makes his way to the Secret Keeper. 

He hates it violently.

The entire season he’s tried so hard to make friends, but every time it’d made a villain out of him with the dumb tasks it had given him. And Scar grew tired, of course he did. So he’s embraced it now.

And isn’t that what they always want?

A show?

He has given them the show they wanted, an underdog hated by the whole server rising to the top. He has given them the show they wanted in Tango’s demise, in Etho’s futile attempt at survival, in Scott’s betrayed cries when he’d (coincidentally) sided with Pearl and the rest of the Mounders, in Gem’s protest at the unfairness of her last battle.

It’s time he gets his well deserved applause.

Scar presses the success button and the familiar whispers envelop him, except this time he thinks he can make out congratulatory words in them. His chest glows red as he receives five new hearts and a new book pops into his hands. He opens it.

Win Secret Life.

He laughs. 

“I’ve won already.” He says, and presses the button once more. Maybe it’s broken.

His chest glows again. He’s on 11 hearts now. A new book. Win Secret Life.

“This isn’t funny.” His brow creases.

He presses the button again.

16 hearts.

Win Secret Life.

He burns the book.

“What are you doing?! Let me out!” He yells at the Secret Keeper, his nemesis, an enemy far worse than any of his friends could have been.

It replies.

“I’m not keeping you here.”

Scar freezes. It’s not supposed to do that. It has never communicated with them before.

“What?” He asks again. “Of course you are, why haven’t I died yet?”

“I’m not keeping you here.” It repeats.

“But- Martyn’s time ran out, Pearl died after Scott, you killed Scott, and Grian-“

“Isn’t this what you wanted? A double victory?”

The words die in Scar’s throat. The dirt under his feet turns slippery like sand. His skin warms like the sun is kissing it goodbye. 

“Grian jumped…” The words come out like a whisper. “No…”

The illusion vanishes as quickly as it had come. Scar shuffles to the fail button and presses it, but nothing happens. He presses it again, punches it until his hands go bloody, but he’s still at 16 hearts.

He tears his throat apart with a blood-freezing scream.

Of course the show is not over. He might be the victor but he’s still a pawn in the games. 

And the Watchers, oh they itch for a golden finale.

Scar still remembers. Deep within he carries the guilt of leaving Grian alone in the end to deal with it all. It had been such an easy way out, even though he had genuinely thought at that moment that he was doing it because Grian deserved to win. He had just been scared.

But now…

He’s tired.

He wants to go home.

His eyes gaze up at the cobblestone tower…

.

.

.

Scar wakes up in Hermitcraft, but he knows a part of him will never make it back home.

EDIT: I've edited some points because I've watched the trailer more and understand things a bit better! So reread if you want!

So loved the trailer but I don't really feel like doing an in-depth analysis like I did for the teaser, so I'll just point out some things that I thought were interesting!

1. Stede is adorable and looks great in his outfits, I love his "I didn't dump him," and "we're on a break." I also love how it seems like people around Stede are teasing him about his rocky relationship. And on that note I'm SO EXCITED to see how Stede tells the crew (or maybe just Olu?) about what happened on the beach!

2. Ed is equally adorable and I love the hint that he'll be a total bitch to Stede for a while lol

3. Izzy is missing half his left leg! Huh. I know people speculated it but it's cool to have confirmation! The missing toe must have gotten infected. I wonder if that will play a part in Izzy realizing he made a mistake in bringing Blackbeard back.

4. Stede saying he's been a failure his whole life really hurts my heart

5. There's a scene of Stede in his Chinese garb looking horrified at what the Revenge looks like. This must be after the storm damaged it. Poor guy

6. Izzy and Stede training together! Love to see it. I'm excited to maybe have a reason to like Izzy more and see Stede become better at... well a lot of things lol

7. STEDE EARRING STEDE EARRING I wonder who pierces his ear, I hope they show it haha

8. Ed standing on the rocks with what people have speculated to be Hornigold, or his ghost, I wonder what the context of that scene is

9. There's the bunny from the poster! (Note Ed says "new best friend," hinting Stede isn't his bestie anymore aw). I wonder if this is from Ed's island days or maybe when he's trying to figure himself out again (aka the trying something new scene?)

10. What kind of wound does stede have on his shoulder when he's tied to the mast? Doesn't seem to be a stab wound, it's more of a hole. Bullet perhaps? Hot cigar burnt into his skin?

11. Seems like the "torture" scene may be comical after all? It looks like Jim is smiling?

12. In the scene where they're on the "torture" boat, seems like before the "torture" happens, Stede is smiling! Good to see him happy for a moment, since pretty much every other scene he hasn't smiled lol

13. Who is this weird-nosed character? Is he the villain of the season? Seems like he's leading the Navy officers, so probably.

14. WEE JOHN LOOKS SO GOOD IN DRAG OMG WHAT A QUEEN

15. Jim and Olu are together again awwww

16. Why is Stede running along the shore? Is he running to someone? Ed perhaps?

17. Yeah that headbutt from Ed was definitely on purpose 😂 But we love to see bedside vigil worried Stede! Is this where they officially reunite?

18. LOOK AT SWEDE THERE HE ISSS BABYGIRLL (so is he one of Jackie's husband's now?? I'm excited to see the story of how he ended up working at Jackie's lol) Also his little "are you poor now?" is so funny

19. I love how Ed sputters after taking a puff of the joint or cigar or whatever it is, shows that he's not used to it lol

20. The Ed crying scene probably happens around the same time that the painted cake topper scene does, since we see the bride topper in the right corner. Also I really want Stede to find the cake toppers (or at least Ed's if Ed throws the groom overboard)

21. When Ed says "no more booze, no more drugs, and no more" the "Stede" at the end is clearly not from that same line. So I wonder what he actually says at the end?

22. What are Stede and crew escaping from during the crossbow scene? I've watched the trailer again and I think they're firing the crossbow for the zip line rope! And they're escaping from a ship to the Revenge. I hope Stede gets to shoot the crossbow!

23. The "you two know each other?" scene must come around the same time that Stede reunites with Ed after Ed is hurt, since Ed has the same split lip. Or maybe the headbutt scene comes after that? I'm not sure. I would bet that the headbutt scene is first.

24. Why are Jim and Olu and that other person warding off vampires lol

25. We finally see a glimpse of Lucius!! In the scene where he and Frenchie are under a log. He has a beard now! We definitely know it's him becouse of the wooden finger. Yay the boy is back! Can't wait to see how he survived and the Lucius x Black Pete reunion!!

Anyways that's all, I'm even more excited for the new season now and I hope we get a clip or two or more photos! But we only have 3 weeks left guys hang in there!!!

[charmac]

I love how Glenn looks like an average guy his age IRL and in his other roles but as Dennis he has kind of a waxy, gaunt look? I heard somewhere that for a scene where Dennis was lying about his age to a younger woman, they shot outdoors at an angle that would highlight his wrinkles so he would look even older. This is a man desperately shellacking makeup on his face every day to hide the fact that he's now in his late 40s and it's Not Working. I hope they show his and Dee's 50th birthday onscreen in Season 18 so he can have a full-on sobbing meltdown

"Old people? I'm 26." Literally lives rent free in my mind, the pacing, the delivery, just the fucking line takes me OUT. Genuinely one of the funniest moments of Season 15 to me. It's funny they tried to make him look older in that scene, because that was one of the rare moments where I could see more Glenn in him (aka he looked hotter). But yeah, he's been trying desperately to still be young for awhile now, especially in early 15...but less so in 16 though, would others agree?

Like he's kinda hit a bit of a lull here, he's tempering his rage, he's more living in the moment and not the past, he's thinking about Frank getting older and trying to get back on his good side as they age, he's talking about picking up men with his mommy kink... And now we go into DTAMHD and he's absolutely hitting an old person moment. New technology he can't work, dealing with automated phone systems, can't get into his stupid fucking new, young people car. He's old. He can't do it anymore, he can't pretend.

So what's the outcome of DTAMHD? Will he finally go through acceptance? Will he finally embrace the fact that he is becoming an old man and that's okay? Have we been building to the idea that he's letting go of his youth? Is that what this is...or is it going to just break him instead? Is Dennis Glenn enough to go through that same moment of zen, or is he just so removed that he can't reach it, that he can't figure out where the fuck he's going and who he is and that he's trapped between eras, floundering. Will he need guidance, or will he get somewhere on his own? Can he accept the truth or will he fight back until it drowns him?

Regardless of where we end up, "Dennis and Dee Turn 50" is something I suddenly need so, so, so, bad. They could do so much with it, if Dennis has accepted he's old now or not. The twins turning 50 is the plot of the (mid)century. Meg... Ms. Ganz,,, are you here. Please. I'm tagging you here just in case you name search yourself on Tumblr for some reason. Please, Dennis and Dee Turn 50... Please.

My Top 5 BLs

Some of my favorite BL series and some small details on why I enjoyed them. I'm gonna try and remake one of these every few months to see what's changed after I watch some new series and finish the ones that I'm currently watching. *may contain spoilers*

Until We Meet Again (2019)

This was the first bl I ever watched, I went in with zero expectations and didn't read the synopsis before I watched it. I honestly fell in love with the characters instantly, especially Korn and In, every aspect of their relationship was so detailed and crafted perfectly. If you ever feel like shedding a few tears, this should be your first choice, whether you want to cry or not with this series you definitely will. Even on my first time watching it I felt a sense of nostalgia and it felt very familiar, I felt very comfortable and at home with this series.

The Untamed (2019)

If you'd consider this a bl then it should definitely be in everyone's top 5. Everything about this series is perfect from the characters to the cinematography. While watching this series I felt drawn in and like I, myself was inside the series, every time a character cried, I cried with them, shared a connection with them, and felt their pain. I've always loved the theme of soulmates and that's a very obvious theme in The Untamed, Lan Wangji loses the one closest to him and longs for him for 16 years, and upon Wei Wuxian coming back to life Wangji is one of the first people he thinks about. They never left each other's side, they always fought for each other and always chose each other first, that's the definition of soulmates and I can't think of a better example other than them. On my first time watching this I was so into it that I watched all 50 episodes in four days, small note when watching this prepare tissues.

KinnPorsche (2022)

Let me start this off by saying the acting in this series is absolutely amazing, it feels almost real. By the time my friend told me about this series, there were already nine episodes out and I sat there and binged them all, KinnPorsche kept me on the edge of my seat and never made me bored. They also did a fantastic job with the casting everyone was very skilled and extremely good-looking. This was only Be On Cloud's first series and after seeing how good this was I'm looking forward to their releases in the future. I loved the theme of Kinn and Porsche being "Ride or Die" and never turning their backs on each other, the story was executed perfectly and all the actors really brought the characters to life.

Word of Honor (2021)

Finished this within less than three days, directly after I finished The Untamed. This is another series involving the theme of soulmates on this list as soulmates may or may not be my favorite troupe. Wen Kexing's willingness to give his life and anything else for Zhou Zishu, them willingly giving up living amongst other humans to spend eternity together, is more than enough to consider this a bl. Although there are many heart-shattering moments, there are many moments spent happily and some humorous moments to lighten the mood a bit. I'm not sure if there'll ever be a season two but I'm hoping.

Love In The Air (2022)

I'd consider LITA to be top-five material not because of the plot, but because of the characters and their depth to them. Specifically, Prapai and Sky as they have so many sides to them and we get to see more into their personalities than what's on the surface. I liked this series because I felt it was balanced between funny and serious, it didn't have too much or not enough of either element and that's something I really enjoyed. The writers made it realistic and showed the issues that people may face in life and in relationships instead of making it all sunshine and rainbows, I applaud them for that. I don't just want a season two I NEED a season two, most of my posts so far have been about LITA and that'll give me plenty more material to write about so hopefully we'll get it and my writing career doesn't end right here.

Honorable Mention

3 Will Be Free (2019)

This isn't a bl but I just have to talk about it. One of my favorite things to see in the series is strong friend groups and that's what we see in this one. Three young people on the fringe of society still trying to find their way in the world and bonding through shared faults and mistakes. They may feel upset with one another at times but they still will come to each other's aid no matter the situation, this is without a doubt the trio we needed.

Defeeted (prod 103)

Original airdate: August 16, 2004

Story by Scott Gray

Written by Noah Zachary, Mani Svavarrson, Magnus Scheving, Scott Gray

Directed by Magnus Scheving

Executive producers - Magnus Scheving, Ragnheidur Melsted, Raymond P. Le Gue, Mark Read, Brown Johnson, Kay Wilson Stallings

Starring Magnus Scheving, Stefan Karl Steffanson, Julianna Rose Mauriello

Puppeteers - Ronald Binion, Gudmondor Thor Karason, Jodi Eichelberger, Heather Asch, David Matthew Feldman, Julie Westwood, Sarah Burgess

This is the second episode of LazyTown that aired on the same day as the first one. All in all a very early and flawed episode.

The episode begins with some amazing aerobics from Sportacus while he.. tries to brush his teeth. My lord, he is so extra. And it is so cool! How everyone can see those jumps and flips that Magnus, Joe and Dyri did and not like them is beyond me.

Anyways, it's a new day in LazyTown and everyone has seem to forgotten everything Sportacus had tought them in the last episode. They take him for granted and don't care. Anyways, Stephanie is in her room writing in her diary, bored. Milford asks what is wrong and Stephanie tells him that nobody is playing outside. Milford knows what just to do (rely on Sportacus). He gives Sportacus a letter saying 'I need your help'. Sportacus rides the airship to LazyTown, but not before doing a flip into his chair.. and landing the wrong way. LazyTown is the pinnacle of comedy.

Milford talks to Sportacus, telling him something terrible has happened. Sportacus tries guessing four times what has happened, and all his guesses are lethal natural disasters. LOL! This is funny. Anyways, Milford tells him about the whole thing with not wanting to play outside and he asks Sportacus to get the kids excited with a sport like he did last year at the Sportacular Spectacle Day. Now, excuse ME, but didn't Sportacus arrive in LazyTown, like, one episode ago? The continuity of this show's first season kills me sometimes, like when a clip from Soccer Sucker (episode 24) is played in Dear Diary (episode 16).

Anyways, Robbie is as usual, angry about Sportacus, so he looks into his periscope and finds the sign Milford has put up. Robbie reminisces about how Sportacular Spectacle Day was a day full of pie eating contests and diving into chocolate syrup. He then admires his newest invention - "THE FEET CRAZER MAKER 6000!!" Then he plays with the remote control, calls it beautiful until it kicks him in the face and he falls onto the ground. I. Love. This. Show.

He then gets up from the floor and wears his newest disguise - Rob U Blind, a salesman with ridiculous ways. Now we are in Pixel's house with Ziggy and Stephanie. Ziggy is hyping the event up. He is ridiculously excited. Steph is curious. And french fry hair boy is playing a video game and insulting Ziggy in between rounds.

Sportacus is on the soccer field practicing his amazing move (kicking a soccer ball while doing a backflip). Robbie is walking to him and almost gets hit in the face by the ball. Anyways, he walks up to him and plays the funniest sequence of this episode.

Robbie asks Sportacus if he has ever thought "Boy, my shoes are sure full of slimy smelly goo!"? Sportacus of course says no. THEN Robbie pours slimy smelly goo all over his shoes. Robbie then (pretends to) cleans the shoes with the Shoe Cleaner 6000, and once he is finished, he swipes the shoes and gives Sportacus the Feet Crazer Maker. What's funny is that Sportacus is not having any of it (and Robbie is also pretty hilarious).

So, anyways, after that, it is time for Sportacus to perform his epik move!1!111!1!1!!, but Robbie has the remote control and plays with Sportacus, making his "feet go cuckoo!" -Sportacus. Everyone is worried and confused, except Robbie who is enjoying every single moment of it. It's so unintenionally funny. Sportacus just looks insane. I also love Milford's "reaction" to getting kicked in the head. Could be the cause for his stupidness in the later seasons?

Now Sportacus is on a bench trying to get his feet to go back to normal while Milford and Bessie are just sitting there and questioning if that was supposed to happen. It's so funny. One of the possibly craziest events in LazyTown just happened and they're so quiet about it, especially the man who got KICKED IN THE HEAD. Anyways, back to Stephanie and the gang, who are using multiple methods to try and get him back to normal while performing "Always a Way", a.k.a ONE OF THE BEST LAZYTOWN SONGS IN EXISTENCE. THIS SONG IS A TREASURE AND I WILL GO BRUCE LEE MODE ON ANYONE WHO DISAGREES. It's inspirational and a head banger (well at least the radio edit).

Now Robbie shows up on stage in his LazyCus costume and performs an amazing move (attempting the splits and falling down and failing terribly)! Milford and Bessie aren't really all that impressed, but LazyCus convinces them by saying that they don't have a superhero anymore.

Cue Sportacus coming on in stage with the gang, doing a handstand. He then fails and flails his feet around. Fortunately, french fry hair boy is behind Robbie while he drops his gadget off the stage and turns it off, and the shoes go flying off.. and Robbie runs off stage in such a cartoony way it is hilarious..

Sportacus stands up normally, but he doesn't know where his shoes are. Robbie runs back on stage to give him the Feet Crazer Makers, but french fry hair boy stops him and tells him to put them on. Robbie declines but Pixel comes back with the classic 'unless-you're-afraid' argument. Ooh, snap! He ends up putting them on, acting like everything is fine, but then Pixel turns the gadget on.

Then his feet go cuckoo and everybody laughs at his pain as he falls down and gets his foot stuck in a bin.. I would too. Anyways, somehow Stephanie gains hold of the real shoes and cleans them up. He puts them on and Bessie throws him a ball to do his epik !!111!!!!111 trick. He performs it, the ball almost hits Robbie again, everyone is impressed, they sing the Bing Bang song (both verses), the end.

I must say, for the third episode of the TV show that LTE filmed, this is an amazing episode. Of course, the puppeteers screwed up visibly like four times in total, but it was an amazing episode with an amazing song. But there was no Robbie sequence at the end, possibly because the two verses of Bing Bang were sung instead of one verse.

THE END

10/10

BAD EDUCATION IS BACK OH MY GODDDD!! 🤩🤩🤩

ITS ALL THERE SERIES 4 IS ON IPLAYER NOW!

Now, I hold the first three seasons & the film in such high regard. I didn’t see it when it aired but I got into it in when it was already all over in 2016 & this show got me through my last year of high school & two years of six form. the show is incredibly funny & I WAS SO EXCITED when I heard that it was coming back. Yes, there’s only three members of the original cast who are in it (four if you count the brief return of MOLLINSON MY BELOVED) but THEY’RE THREE OF THE BEST ONES!! It’s Mitchell Harper, Stephen Carmichael & Mr. Fraser! None of them have changed one bit, they’re still the same characters I grew up with & loved. Mitchell is still HILARIOUS, a kindhearted idiot & an absolute legend, Stephen is still glamorous, iconic & has honestly gotten even better as a character during this season & whilst it is a shame that Mr. Fraser is no longer the headmaster, he’s still the same banter loving imbecile as the school cook & yes, I might be completely biased with this whole season because Mitchell Harper was my absolute favourite back when I was a kid & he’s still my favourite now, BUT MY GOD PLEASE! Please, if you’re a fan of this show, or if you used to watch it when you were younger do not sleep on this new season because it is so good, it is so funny. I haven’t laughed so hard in ages. It holds up even without the majority of the original cast! It’s also managed to rid of the more outdated humour without changing that ‘relatable English 12-16 high school students’ humour & the jokes about pop culture which is what made the show so funny originally. It is so good.

Here’s what I loved the most. There was nothing bad per say but these are the stand out parts for me.

Every. Single. One. Of. The. New. Class. K. Are INCREDIBLE! These kids are so talented, they’re so funny & NONE of them feel like copies of the original students. There’s some moments where I see some of the characteristics of the previous characters in them, but these new students are such brilliant characters. I love them all so, so much.

Top stand outs for me though personally are Inchez, Jinx, Usma, Blessing, Warren & Harrison. (okay that’s ALL of Class K)

They’re just such good characters.

Inchez is so funny oh my god that dude is hilarious. I need to gif the katsu curry scene 😂 he’s BRILLIANT because he’s so desperate to be seen as this hardcore rapper, but he’s actually a really nice team-player kid who’s incredibly talented in choir singing as well as rapping. he’s such a good character.

Jinx is amazing because whilst she’s so clearly unaware of her own privileges as a rich class white girl, she does genuinely want to do good & she clearly loves her friends so much. her earrings & hairstyle are incredible in every episode. ALSO OH MY GOD SHE CAN SING 😱 she is so talented.

USMA MY BELOVED! She is so stylish & funny. She’s like the female version of Stephen when he was in Class K (to be fair he hasn’t changed a bit & I love that so much) her addiction to her phone is hilarious & the passion she has is just brilliant.

Blessing is so fun, she’s Mitchell’s right hand, just as crafty as he used to be in the original three seasons & there’s this episode where he’s trying to get his Missus back & oh my GOD Blessing 😭

Mitchell’s ‘high school teenager’ like humour hasn’t changed one bit even though his character is an adult but as a teacher he’s so funny. The squid games re-enactment in PE had me dead 😂 but his character has also matured so much, he acts like a dad towards the new Class K & it’s lovely to see. I love him, the reason I never was a massive fan of the ending of series 3 is because he wasn’t there.

The show the students (& Stephen) put on in the final episode is so funny it had me & my mother both crying with laughter.

the only things i wish were different though are:

kayleigh is great, a lot nicer than i thought she’d be (given the comments made about the character in the reunion episode) but i do kinda wish that mitchell's girlfriend had been cleo from the original series. i love that her character is revealed to be the most successful though & i do like kayleigh so it's not really a grievance of mine. i just adored cleo & she & mitchell were hilarious.

the fact that stephen never mentions chantelle once in the whole season is an actual crime (tbf it was a crime that no one ever mentioned stephen&frank in the reunion). i can completely understand why the character wouldn’t be there but i did think there’d be just an off hand comment about his best friend at least once or twice!!! same with mitchell & remm dogg (the fact mitchell never mentions him at all is insane to me), fraser & alfie (even though there is a painting of them both on the school wall which i thought was lovely)

all in all, it's a fantastic season & i hope more people get to watch it & hopefully love it just as much as i have because i literally need another season.

Tgamm S1 Ep 16-A ¨Citizen Mcgee¨ Episode Analysis

Molly gets elected to be Brighton’s mayor for a day while the actual mayor Brunson takes the day away. At first Molly believes that running the city shouldn’t be a problem until she starts to realize that it isn’t as easy as it looks...

Episode writer: Peter Limm

Sometimes passion alone isn’t enough, it takes a lot of time and patience to master a certain subject. A person is going to make a lot of mistakes along the way until they are able to get things right. This is something that Molly learns the hard way when she has to be Brighton’s mayor for a day.

The thing is that Molly is a clever enthusiastic girl with tons of ideas and she really wants to help her community, but, she is still a teen, and because of that she doesn’t have the enough experience to make the most appropriate decisions. There is a point in the episode she changes her clothers to a blazer, giving her a more ¨mature serious¨ presentation. She believes that she needs to look like a grown up to act like one despite not knowing how to handle political issues.

What it is kind of refreshing is that Molly doesn’t abuse her temporal position to get what she wants. Since she is someone who wants to help others, she takes the day as an opportunity to ¨enhappify¨ the city, which it does gets positive results... at first.

The other part of story involves Stewey Brunson, who feels like he can’t handle the pressure of being a mayor and that he can’t measure up to his ancenstors who were Brighton mayors too. He expresses having lost his passion to run the town and the reason he is making a ¨mayor for a day¨ event to take a day off from his duties. There is a memorable shot when Stewey is talking about his family and the camera focus on the photos from past mayors hanging on the wall, like they are always watching him. He says that every time he looks at those photos, he feels all this high expectations to be like them.

In a way, it’s hard to not sympathize with Stewey’s situation. After all, he only was taking a day off, it’s not like he was planning on making Molly a mayor forever. It’s understandable that a person would loose their passion on their work after working for so many years in the same job.

While the conflict isn’t centered around them, Scratch and Darryl provide some funny moments in this episode, such as Darryl stealing the things he finds in the mayor´s office. They complement well with Molly, giving her bad advice or helping her dealing with the crisis later in the story.

When the protagonists find out that the slide covered with syrup ends up attracting many horseflies and causes an invasion in the city, Molly and Scratch decide to look for Mr.Brunson to help them. It doesn’t take long before they find him in the park, hiding behind his cotton candy stand. To persuade him into returning to his mayor position, the duo calls for the previous Brunsons (who are ghosts) to help him.

The song sequence that plays next is one of the most beautiful songs of the season. The Brunson family tells Stewey how proud they are of his work and carrying the legacy of his family. The music clearly takes inspiration from old movies such as ¨Grease¨. It’s a very nice sequence that shows how much the Brunsons care about Stew.

With his confidence back, Stewey (thinking it was all a dream) helps with getting rid of the horseflies decides to go back to his place as a mayor. Molly apologizes for the mess she caused but before she leaves, Stew has a short talk with Molly about how he is the last of the Brunson family and he suggests that Molly could be his successor when she gains more experience as an adult. It’s a nice scene since Stew knows Molly has the passion and personality to be a leader.

In all, ¨Citizen Mcgee¨ is a great episode which teaches a good lesson that is a bit rare to see. A person who is new in leadership isn’t going to have all the answers right away, it takes years to become a good leader. I appreciate this episode developing Stewey’s character and his family and introduccing a bit of a role model for Molly if she wants to become a mayor when she grows up.

I Have Called You By name

But now thus says the LORD, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” Isaiah 43:1

My relationship with God has been a recurring topic in this blog simply because my faith has its ups and downs and sometimes, I feel like I want to express what I'm feeling about it by writing on this blog. Writing, although I am mediocre at it, has become a hobby of mine. Ever since I was young, I always rely on writing an essay over various topics - before, I just find an extra notebook at home or a spare piece of paper and just write down whatever I want and then during college years I bought a journal and I became so active in writing on those mini journal notebooks then came adulthood which I discover blogging so this blog ended up being created. Although I'm not really active here (because of adulting, that's why), this blog is no stranger to my journey with God. I have written about my faith in God a few times in here, sometimes the ups and sometimes the downs. I can remember the last time I wrote something here, way back in 2022, a quite lengthy blog post about how I'm struggling with my faith (The title of that blog post is "O, Ye of Little Faith" and it was posted here on October 16, 2022). I wrote that in frustration. I was in so much pain when I was writing it. I feel like I was screaming at an empty sky and no one is listening. My heart is longing for that "being" who I used to believe in and yet I felt like he abandoned me. But there was a part of me that says "do not give up on your faith" so as I entered 2023, I made a promise to myself that I will work on my relationship with God and surprisingly, I did.

The church is a holy place for this is where the mass is being held, a place where people pray, to put it simply: God's Home. But here's the thing, for years I cannot find God in the Church. I tried personally visiting churches or even watching the mass online but I cannot find Him there. My flawed mind is already telling me that maybe there really is no God and I'm just stuck in the idea of Him. And that's how I started my 2023. Few days in to 2023 and I already lost faith. It was a rough patch but I just continued with life because what choice do I have left? In 2023, things were bad and some were good. I just simply exist and try my best to survive every day. Then one night, He found me. And with that I ended up with the realization that the reason why I cannot find God in churches is because He will be the one to find me...and He found me. And I guess it’s true what they always say, in God’s perfect timing things will be in their proper places. That night, my heart was ready for Him and that’s why He called me. “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

It was just another night of scrolling on my phone and finding something to do because I don’t feel sleepy yet when I decided to watch something on Netflix. The funny thing is, I cannot find something interesting while browsing. I was about to just go back to twitter when I saw that there is a new show added on Netflix and the title was “The Chosen” and I don’t know what made me curious about it but I ended up clicking it anyway and watched it. I truthfully have no idea about this show and I did not even read it’s short description or watch the trailer available, I just decided to go for it….I have nothing else to do anyway. And then, I realized it was about the life of Jesus. At that moment, I already thought of not watching it anymore since I know about it anyway. I am familiar with Jesus because I was raised a Catholic and studied in Catholic schools from kindergarten to high school. I was telling myself, “I already know this, why bother watching?” But, I cannot truly bring myself to stop watching it because the show’s approach is different. It can make any viewer, regardless of religion, become interested. The show was not “preachy” at all. And then the first episode ended with the scene of Jesus telling Mary Magdalene the bible verse I put above this blog post, “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” And at that moment, I felt chills in my body. It was as if God Himself is talking to me directly. It was at that moment I have realized God has found me and redeemed me.

Fast forward to today, a few minutes ago while I am working on this blog post I officially turned 28 and somehow, I don’t feel sad at all. For years, I wake up on my birthdays with a heavy heart; instead of celebrating, all I do on my birthday is be depressed. I even wished on my 27th birthday that I hope it was my last because I just cannot handle life anymore but look at me now, still here and I don’t have that heavy feeling in my heart. I guess it’s because God works on me through Jesus. I cannot fully describe it into words the impact that The Chosen had on me. And by reading the comments of other people who watched the show, we all feel that this show has become an avenue for people to become closer to God and for the non-believers who ended up believing, the show was a way for them to know God.

I guess what makes The Chosen different from all the other adaptations of the bible is the humanity it has. The Chosen put humanity in its character, especially in the apostles. Growing up and learning about these people from the bible has always made me feel so small. The people from the bible intimidates me because I feel like I’m too flawed to become a follower of Jesus but The Chosen has shown otherwise. The Chosen may have taken artistic liberty to show us Jesus’ life but it’s the way they put humanity in the characters that made people drawn to it. The way it shows that the apostles were just like us, they were humans too. And God through His Son Jesus, does not call the qualified for He qualifies the called. Jesus was sent here on Earth to bring salvation so that He may save us. And I am grateful for that night because I believe that God called me, chose me, and redeemed me. Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6).

This will be a long journey for me. I know that there will come a time that I will still ask question, I might still stumble, I will still face challenges but this time, the load is not as heavy as before because now I am walking with Jesus. Before 2023 ends, I bought myself a bible. This is my first time buying a bible for myself and I am just excited to get to know God more.

Let me end this blog post with another bible verse: Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6).

X,

TinaMae

PS, I will write more blog posts about The Chosen (maybe I’ll do a recap each season)

Former colleagues and stars have paid tribute to Friends actor Matthew Perry, who died on Saturday night at his home in Los Angeles.

The 54-year-old actor, beloved for his performance in the hit sitcom as the sarcastic Chandler Bing, was found dead in an apparent drowning, his representative told NBC News. A Los Angeles fire department spokesperson confirmed first responders were called to Perry’s home in Pacific Palisades about a “water emergency”.

Maggie Wheeler, who played Chandler’s girlfriend Janice in Friends, said the joy Perry brought to “so many” in his “too short lifetime will live on”.

“I feel so very blessed by every creative moment we shared,” she wrote on Instagram.

Morgan Fairchild, who played Chandler’s mother Nora Bing, said: “I’m heartbroken about the untimely death of my ‘son’ … The loss of such a brilliant young actor is a shock.”

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, who knew Perry as a boy when Perry’s mother worked as an aide to his father, Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau, described his death was “shocking and saddening.”

“I’ll never forget the schoolyard games we used to play, and I know people around the world are never going to forget the joy he brought them. Thanks for all the laughs, Matthew. You were loved – and you will be missed,” he said.

The actor Wendell Pierce, who starred alongside Perry in the remake of The Odd Couple, wrote on X: “Damn. For two years Matthew Perry was my boss, my colleague, and a giving, kind, funny man. I pray and hope he is at peace.”

The actor Selma Blair wrote on Instagram that Perry was “my oldest boy friend”.

“All of us loved Matthew Perry, and I did especially. Every day,” Blair wrote. “I loved him unconditionally. And he me. And I’m broken. Broken hearted. Sweet dreams Matty. Sweet dreams.”

Mira Sorvino, who starred with Perry in the 1994 movie Parallel Lives, wrote on X: “Oh no!!! Matthew Perry!! You sweet, troubled soul!! May you find peace and happiness in Heaven, making everyone laugh with your singular wit!!!”

Actor Paget Brewster, who played Chandler’s girlfriend Kathy in season four of Friends, wrote on X: “He was lovely to me on Friends and every time I saw him in the decades after. Please read his book. It was his legacy to help. He won’t rest in peace though. He’s already too busy making everyone laugh up there.”

Meredith Salenger, who starred in A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon with Perry when he was 16, shared four photos of them together. “Matthew and I have known each other since [we] were 16 years old. Oh man. No words. Rest in peace sweet @MatthewPerry,” she said.

“What a tragic piece of news to read,” actor George Takei wrote. “My heart goes out to his loved ones and long time cast mates.”

Canadian-American comedian Tom Green wrote: “Shocked and saddened to just hear about the passing of Matthew Perry in a tragic drowning. He is one of the many talented and incredible success stories from my hometown of Ottawa Canada. Rest in peace Matthew.”

Broadcaster Piers Morgan called Perry “a great actor, but by his own admission, a very tormented guy. His recent autobiography about his addiction-ravaged life was one of the most powerful, honest and revealing I’ve ever read. Such sad news.”

Warner Bros Television Group, which produced Friends for its entire run from 1994 to 2004, said in a statement: “We are devastated by the passing of our dear friend Matthew Perry. Matthew was an incredibly gifted actor and an indelible part of the Warner Bros Television Group family. The impact of his comedic genius was felt around the world, and his legacy will live on in the hearts of so many. This is a heartbreaking day, and we send our love to his family, his loved ones, and all of his devoted fans.”

NBC, the network that aired Friends, said: “He brought so much joy to hundreds of millions of people around the world with his pitch perfect comedic timing and wry wit. His legacy will live on through countless generations.”

The official Friends account on X, formerly known as Twitter, shared: “We are devastated to learn of Matthew Perry’s passing. He was a true gift to us all. Our heart goes out to his family, loved ones, and all of his fans.”

Winx: Fate Saga writing ideas (Season 1)

Hi Lovelies, this is something I had been thinking of for quite some time and finally decided to release it.

So, I'm sure many people have heard and seen Winx: Fate Saga. Just like many of the fans who grew up watching the cartoon, I did not enjoy it a single bit. Winx to me was almost perfect the way it was, maybe a little alterations here and there, but the concepts and ideas they had were beautiful. And Netflix could not have fucked it up worse than they did with the dumbass Riverdale plot line.

Let me explain. Season 1 had some incredible ideas, most it revolving around finding your own identity and understanding it. While it's a cliche story, it's still a great start and connection to many young people nowadays who have no idea where they belong.

For things to take a darker turn, I would start with Bloom and casual discrimination. The world of magic is seen as an incredible and amazing world, this would be a good coming of age moment for Bloom. This amazing world of endless possibilities, combination of dreams and fairy tale seem too good to be true. And it is. Slowly Bloom comes to notice the glances she receive and the whispers of the students around her. She might be a fairy but she's still not one of 'them'. At first Bloom tries to fight it but with her fiery personality it never works out and soon she gives up on trying to fit in conflicted over whether she should just return to Earth as just another girl. She doesn't belong anywhere at this point.

Next up is one of the greatest story line that was skimmed over very briefly in the cartoon. Tecna and her understanding of emotions. This is an amazing and interesting plot. Young people nowadays believe that they feel too much and what to control their emotions. Tecna brings an interesting perspective to this as she has learnt to always place logic first, neglecting her emotions and therefore being unable to identify them, understand them, and truly express them. Throughout the story, she goes through many challenges with this new group where all of them are led by their hearts and emotions. Tecna begins to feel angry, to feel sad, and confused. She tries to distance herself worried about what it happening, actually she feels scared that her world is now being thrown upside down. Once Tecna finally realises this, she now feels jealous at the fairies who can express themselves freely.

Princess Stella...was a complete abomination in the Netflix series. This is how I would rewrite, a character that is beloved by all and yet not many know the real her. Her character was one that defied stereotypes, how the popular and pretty girl doesn't have to be a bully. She's bright, happy, funny and snarky. She's the personification of the sun. I would start with creating an image of Stella as the girl who Bloom wants to become. Then it slowly begins to crumble, the smiles drop and the snark turns into words of hate. Bloom comes to realise the Stella they've all been seeing is the princess, not the 16 year old girl who has problems of her own. And every time someone tries to reach out, Stella will build a brick wall between them. Using smiles and laughs. I think it would be better to leave Stella's problem for Season 2, to keep her mysterious.

Honestly I could not remember what Musa was like in the Netflix series. But Musa in the cartoon was a very interesting character. She's the fairy of music, her mother died when she was younger due to them not having enough money to buy medicine. She's a tomboy and puts on a tough front, despite being the most emotionally vulnerable. I would start developing Musa from her childhood of being the daughter of a successful food tycoon. That's all she's known for, having a rich dad. Who is never around by the way and pressures her to get good grades because she will be taking over the business one day. From childhood she had been used by so called 'friends' for her money, treated differently by everyone, and had very few adults to look up to. Because of this, Musa rejects everything related to her father. Except food and music. Because she still remembers the poor times when they sat around the dinner table picking at the humble dishes but still feeling full with each other's love. Why I chose food was that many second generation Asian imigrants have conflict with their Asian heritage and the way many reconnect is through food. This could also be the same for other cultures.

Lucky last is Flora. Flora is a gorgeous girl with the kindest heart and if she wasn't a fairy she would have to be an angel. Flora, unlike the other girls, does not receive her own story line in the cartoon. However, Flora is the eldest with a little sister. I imagine that as the older sibling, she would be raised to be responsible and be the perfect role model for her young sister to look up to. And she began to embody that as her personality. Flora stays in line and helps everyone out as much as she can. Meaning she starts to get taken advantaged off, and Flora knows it but only accepts it with her smile. Because this is her identity and she feels safe having an identity. But as the other girls begin to mature, Flora begins to understand how changing can be a good thing and starts to break out of her chains.

Mix this in with the core events from the cartoon and some mature fighting scenes, and you have a dark show that doesn't seem so stupid! Well to me any-wait! I forgot about the other characters! Stay with me just a little bit longer.

Onto the Trix (potentially my favourite characters)

For this season, I think I would chose Darcy as the main character with a dilemma of the trio. In the cartoon, Darcy in the first season is physically attracted to Riven (can't blame her) and uses her magic to manipulate him so he would become their spy. I would make this connection more romantically depressed. During his time being manipulated, Riven breaks out multiple times and insults her stating witches like her will always end up behind bars. Darcy grows frustrated that Riven is mentally strong and has no interest in her, not even through her looks and body. As their problems grow personal, Darcy rants to him about how the world and stupid boys always view witches as evil and fairies as good. Here her background is shown. Starting out as just a normal girl, Darcy begin to show signs of dark magic and accept her powers at a young age. Due to this Darcy grew up and begin to act more mature than her peers, dressing more provocatively, and the boys flock towards her. Young and rash, she does whatever they want and gives all of her only to be thrown away for a fairy when everyone begins to split between evil and good. Giving up on Riven, she puts him under her full control, miserable Darcy locks away her emotions and gets back on track with the plan. At the end she is led away to prison and Riven approaches her saying some sweet words to make her heart flutter. With a smirk, Darcy walks off.

Now for some Specialists!

Brandon (definitely my favourite) is Prince Sky's squire, essentially his servant, and merely Sky's shield. But while he is a servant, Brandon is smart, funny, and an amazing swordsman. He is dating the Princess Stella. The man is winning at life. But he is still a servant and that is all he will be for the rest of his life. Besides, Stella doesn't even know who he is. He and Sky swapped identity to protect Sky from a terrorist. Stella thinks she's dating a prince right now, she's not. Just like his girlfriend, Brandon locks all of his insecurities away with a bright smile. Until the secret is revealed and Brandon is back to being at the bottom of society. After this he tries to distance himself from Stella but after the attack begins and Stella is thrown into danger, Brandon charges in to save her and realise he loves her too much. He'll fight his way up, to a knight, a commander, someone important enough that will allow him to stand next to the princess confidently.

To those who read this whole thing, you are truly my lovelies! This is my version of Winx, mature and darker. Winx mixed in with reality to touch the emotions of it's audience which has now grown up or face the trouble of growing up. Please go ahead to add in your ideas and also do this for other shows as well! That's all from me 💋

Hey, I wanted to ask for a fanfic where all the boys would have a happy time with Jurg and Pep.

I need a distraction.

Here it is :) Sorry it took so long, things got busy

A Picture’s Worth A Thousand Words

Klopp put down his cellphone with a sigh, letting the device fall into a conveniently open drawer. There was nothing to do.

Well, there were many things to do. But all of them seemed to have something to do with Liverpool’s abysmal season so far.

Klopp had checked the news to see if there was anything interesting. The only “interesting” thing was Royal Blues purchasing Joao Felix, United progressing to the semifinals of the EFL Cup, and more “Messi the GOAT” business.

He’d tried to call some of his manager friends. Every one of them was busy with their teams.

He’d looked on Youtube for any funny videos of epic fails, or maybe a few United losses. All he could see were people trashing Liverpool. Going to social media—something Klopp thought he’d never do—retrieved the same results.

Klopp was tired, no, exhausted, of Gary Neville’s utter crap. Generally, he was exhausted by the whole media. He needed a distraction. 

“Pep!”

“No need to yell, I’m right here.” Lijnders looked up from his laptop computer, sipping yet another cup of coffee. “What’s on your mind?”

“More like what’s not on it. All these news and tactics and transfers and rumors…” Klopp’s gaze caught the old Polaroid camera sitting on the shelf. “I have an idea.”

Lijnders groaned, shutting down the laptop. “Last time you had an idea, what did it bring us?”

“Cody.”

“Okay, so you have a point there. What’s the big idea?”

Klopp pointed at the Polaroid camera. “Let’s take a team photo. All of us—we can have a photoshoot!”

Lijnders shook his head in amusement. Even though Klopp was 16 years older than him, the German often had the energy of a young kid. So often in fact, that it was when he actually acted his age that Lijnders worried about him.

“We haven’t taken a proper team picture since December,” Klopp insisted. “And Cody’s here now, and we couldn’t have the staff and kids in the Santa hat photo because it was for the website, and—”

“December was only eleven days ago,” Lijnders pointed out. “And plus, how are we going to get the little ones to stay still for the photo?”

“It’s a family photo, Pep. It’s not a formal poster.” Klopp took the camera off the shelf, along with a scrapbook. “Plus, the scrapbook could use updating.”

Lijnders hesitated before nodding. “Let’s do it.”

*

Soon, everybody was gathered in the auditorium for the photoshoot. Some wore their LFC kits, but most of them were in their everyday clothes. That included the kids, who had come up with some borderline weird costumes upon hearing about the photoshoot.

“What are you wearing, Florrie?” Kelleher chuckled, lifting her in the air. The toddler was three, going on four in the next month.

Florrie chuckled, flapping her arms in the air. “Butterfly!”

Alisson grabbed Florrie from Keller’s arms, nuzzling the child. “Que doce, florzinha.”

Klopp watched the chattering as he set up the camera. Sure, they had smartphones; but to him the Polaroid camera would always be his favorite venue for memory-making.

“Alright!” Klopp surveyed the crowd of players, staff and kids. “Who’s going first?”

The next hour or so was full of laughter and some…amusing situations, to say the least. There were chaotic photos, adorable photos, and quite a few that couldn’t be described in one word.

Arwen clinging onto Nunez’s back, secretly undoing his man bun.

Tsimikas and Alexander-Arnold in a cardboard and tin foil sword fight.

Carvalho holding Tristian, both dressed as baby foxes.

Mo Salah posing by a cardboard pyramid, wearing a crown.

The “Knights of the Balbis Table” pretending to shave a disgruntled Milner’s beard.

Klopp captured all these moments and more, in deep thought the whole while. He was truly blessed to be with a squad like this—if they weren’t good on the pitch, at least they were a whole family off it.

Hello!!⭐️ If it's not too much trouble, could you please rec some iconic Spurs games for a newbie to watch? Maybe Poch era or whatever comes to your mind first! If your cool Spursy friends want to rec some as well, I'd love that. Thank you💞 have a good week🙏

OMG yes i'd be more than happy to tell you any games my little goldfish brain can remember!!! firs things first though welcome to spurs!!!!!!! also if anyone else thinks of others hopefully they'll add them cause like my memory's awful

I'll go poch era onwards.

iconic but before 16/17 would be the spurs 2 v arsenal 1 game in 2015, the 5-3 against Chelsea at home but also the battle of the bridge 2-2 which everyone should watch just cause it WILL come up when talking about spurs and it's such a perfect encapsulation of Tottenham being Tottenham and also if i ever see mark clattenburg on the street it's over for that prick.

16/17

idk how many upon reflection are super iconic? even if the season as a whole was but i will say any game where we won by a lot of goals is worth watching just because we were so fun to watch at that time and we did it quite a bit. our home game against Chelsea was the dele show and it was soooooooo good idk how well it holds up on rewatch but like that was the Moment

17/18

again i think there's a couple where we won by a shit ton of goals esp at the end of the season so i'd give them a watch if you have time. we were actually so good in the ucl this season we were so unlucky against juve but i'd deffo recommend the dortmund games and THE real Madrid game at home like lives were changed, history was written, depression cured. the 4-1 thrashing of Liverpool which of course i missed but harry kane sent lovren to the retirement and oh my god i think we also had THE 2-2 game against liverpool this season too which is iconic if not because we were good then just because of the beef that it created. wouldn't watch the whole game but the 2-0 win against united where eriksen scored the opener in 11 seconds. THE WIN AT STAMFORD BRIDGE LITERALLY ICONIC oh my god i have been chasing the high of that game every single day of my life since it happened. the 5-4 against Leicester isn't iconic iconic but it lives in my head rent free for being the most chaotic thing I've ever seen as the scoreline suggests. wait okay like this will not be iconic to you but the 6-1 against rochdale (which was during our Embarrassing era of constantly needing replays) where kwp got his goal in the snow? top of the charts in my household!!!

actually this season had so many good games damn maybe we need to talk about this season more too

18/19

the whole ucl campaign literally the definition of iconic i want to run back into her arms all the time even if the wheels were falling off this club already you could forget it when you were knocking city out of the UCL. idk if the group games are as good now cause we know we got to the final but at the time that shit was literally do or die like we could have gone out on my birthday it was awful. but idk i always like to watch the highlights on youtube from the first group game to the ajax game just for the whole experience again. but obvs the first leg against dortmund, second leg against city, second leg against ajax are some of the most iconic games in spurs history

us beating united 3-0 at old trafford was a good game and "moura is practically like a new signing" was a fun 5 minutes until moura logged into twitter. us beating chelsea at home always good and great and amazing. dele, kane and son scoring we literally used to be such a Club. us knocking arsenal out of the carabao was very funny and iconic of us but i also might just be remembering danny's interview afterwards where he humbled them

19/20

i think our win against city was the only iconic thing we had that whole season. there was iconic in other ways (like losing to colchester) but i would only wish my worst enemy to watch that.

20/21

again iconic games but mostly in a bad way like us v everton in the fa cup. we did smash united 1-6 at old trafford though which was very iconic and cool of us

idk if you need any games after this so i wont cause this is already pretty long but i hope there's at least one good game in here you enjoy watching

#the amount of thoughts and memories and everything that went through my head while making this #wow i love spurs so much but like... we're so spurs #like just remembering who scored and who we've had in this team across the seasons i feel so nostalgic and full of love but also bafflement #i tried to just do the games and not waffle on too much but like i have also definitely done that too im so sorry
