#i got a nice little recap of each episode
Text
Win asks a lot of questions. In twelve episodes of the show, Win asks a grand total of 162 questions. And, because I don’t have a life, here are all 162 questions in one place, plus what episode each was in, what part of the episode, and a time stamp. Enjoy.
EP 1, 1/4, 4:16, “right?”

That Discussion | Kyle Gaz Garrick x m!reader
@mockerycrow asked: “you shouldn’t talk like that” gaz x male!reader 🙏🏻🙏🏻 will forever be eating your works bestie!!!
summary: it's nice to have Gaz back, but all the same, there's just some conversations that you're not ready for at all.
tws: swearing, mild angst
support your fanfic writers by reblogging what you read & enjoy
The bedroom was dark, illuminated only by the soft colours on the television, giving everything a slightly blue hue; settled at last, Gaz was half asleep as he aimlessly scrolled through his social media feed, leaning slightly into you while you focused on the programme on the television.
It was so quiet, his breath was just a soft hum and you could feel your body betraying you. Struggling to keep your eyes open as you yawned. Eyes watering.
You couldn't help it, leaning into him and humming under your breath, wrapping your arms around one of his as you sighed softly. Ever so slightly, Gaz's lips gently and slowly turned into a small smile.
He tried to hide it by licking his lips.
It had been a surprise to come home from work and find him sitting in the living room, watching The One Show with almost no concentration; he had made himself tea, probably using random food that he had found in the freezer.
You never had proper meals when he was away, only whatever was edible at the time. That was hours ago, and now the initial shock and excitement had worn off, he was finally settled.
You were finally content, and slowly approaching dozing off. You missed him terribly when he was deployed, you couldn't deny it, you never did. Sure, Gaz would call and he would text whenever he possibly could, and late night video chats were a constant - but it just wasn't the same.
You both knew that.
Gaz hummed, turning onto his side so that he could feel you against him that little bit more; propping his phone up on your chest as he yawned softly and threw his leg over you.
"Fuck me. I've missed you."
You dared to smile, letting your hand rest at the base of his neck as you sighed heavily. "I've missed you, too… I recorded EastEnders for you, though. Every episode since you went away."
"Even the live one?"
"Especially the live one," you hummed as you nodded. "I haven't seen any of it, either, so I can't even give you spoilers."
"Brilliant," he breathed out happily, a soft grumble coming from the back of his neck as he pressed the top of his head to just under your neck, sighing heavily with content. "What about that thing we were watching on ITV? The one about the shop?"
"Mister Selfridge?" You asked quietly, and when he nodded, you dared to smile. "Paused it right before the recap so it's ready when we are."
Gaz couldn't help but to smile as he relaxed, putting his phone down next to you and holding onto you gently, moving his shoulders slightly so that he could get more comfortable.
He started to chew at the inside of his lip. Anxiety creeping in as he realised that he would not have been there in that moment if Ghost hadn't stepped in; he got lucky, but how much luck could one man have?
Was it so easy to avoid death?
He didn't want to tell you, didn't want you to worry about him, but he knew that his luck would not last forever; soldiers were never fortunate enough for things like that.
He swallowed thickly.
Knowing.
Gaz knew better than anyone that if he were to leave, you would be so, so fucking devasted that it would be beyond repair; you had grown up together, spent every moment together from the moment that you were both born. His mother was your father's best friend. You were Gaz's best friend, and even when romance had gotten involved, it had not changed anything between you.
You and Gaz were always so close. The same as it would destroy him if anything were to happen to you, if anything were to happen to him, you would surely fall apart.
Life without each other was something that you had never experienced; Gaz shook his head, chewing even more at his lip. He could feel it bleed as the flesh slowly pulled away and snapped.
Slowly, Gaz stopped chewing at his lip, and let out a soft huff.
"If anything happens to me, promise me you'll go and live with Krueger, or Hesh?"
You thought about it for a moment, furrowing your brows. "What do you mean if anything happens?"
"I just… I got lucky once," Gaz admitted. "I don't think it'll happen again."
"Kyle," you spoke softly as you shook your head, "please, you shouldn't talk like that… we've always been together, nothing… nothing is gonna happen."
"I just wanna know you're safe if it does," he told you. "I don't give a fuck if you decide to, I dunno, be Krueger's husband or, or be Hesh's bodyguard - I just wanna know, if anything happens to me, you'll be safe."
"I'm not having this discussion," you muttered. "You've just got home, I'm not… I'm not talking about that shit right now. Can't we just, fuck, can't we just be a fucking couple for once?"
"Sure we can," Gaz said softly, daring to smile again. "We can, uh, we can talk when you're ready, yeah?"
"Yeah…"
"Now," he beamed, resting his arms either side of your head as he held himself up. Licking his lips and slightly quirking his brow. "Can I say hello to my boyfriend properly? Or do you wanna stick to cuddling?"
"Well," you hummed, resting your hands on his shoulders. "That all depends, now, doesn't it?"
"What's it depend on?"
"Are you gonna pay the fee?" You asked. "You've known this since day one, a proper hello means you have to pay the fee."
"How could I forget?" He chuckled, shaking his head fondly. "I'm gonna guess because of the cozzy livs, the price has gone up?"
"It's three now."
"Three?" Gaz whistled as he raised his brows. "Price of everything has gone up, huh?"
You couldn't even answer as he leaned down, gently kissing you once, twice, three times. A more than content smile on your lips as you tugged him a little closer.
"Thank you for paying, Mister Garrick."

Total Drama Island (2023) S2 "Rewrited" au
A possibly cringe Fan Fic that I'll hate on the future
So, this is a fan fic of an Rewrited au of mine... """""Rewrited""""" because I'll change alot of things and I am just making this fan fic for fun while showing you guys what I would change.
Okay, let I start this modern tragedy already.
First part:
Episode 01, The kids will (not) be okay:
-The episode starts with Chris, Chef and the entire cast from the Total Drama island (2023) on a plane, going to a new season in a "new" place. Chris was talking to someone by a Walkie Talkie.
*Biiz*
???: Mr. McLean, seriously that you're lying to them saying that they're going to some kind of "total drama: World Tour" 2?
Chris: umm... Maybe--?
???: McLean! That's pratically clickbai-
Chris: Hey! Don't you dare use this "modern generation" language on me! Anyways, be ready because we're almost getting to there.
???: ah, ok-
- Chris ends the transmission
Chris: wow! That boy still annoying...
Chef: Chris, we're recording!
Chris: Ah, don't worry! After this introduction we will be finally free! ... I mean, just me, not you!
Chef: grr...
Chris: ah, calm down! Anyways, it's been a year 'total drama fans'! Since we don't see Each other THAT long, I'll give y'all a quick recap.
Last season on Total Drama Island:
16 new contestants showed up with the dream of taking that 1 million dollars price.
And the eliminations we're surprising!
Caleb was just there. until he even had the chance of doing something, Bowie made everyone eliminate him! Poor boy...
Nichelle humiliated herself Infront of everyone.
Emma HAD a chance of showing to everyone on live tv that Chase is (or was) a horrible person, but Chase was luckier than her.
Julia was boring, the way she talked, the "spiritual, love and peace" things that she normally talks about was annoying enough to her team.
Wayne would do anything and everything for his best friend Raj, and he was more than happy when he found out about his buddy's secret!
Scary Girl was Creepy, but not for Axel and Ripper! They we're her Unic friends that she had in a while, and the Unic ones that think that her actions are more annoying than scary.
Priya was pathetic! Seriously that she think her parents are so great that she easily go insane when someone criticizes them? Pff, surely the most well deserved elimination of that season.
Mk was smart, a little too much. And because of that, she went from being Bowie's Allie, to be a traitor! Well, it was that, that Bowie made everyone believe.
Raj has a secret, he loves Bowie! And because of that, he made our fandom go wild for them! The fandom loves them! Especially that people from that one Social Media that has "Tum" on the start...
And Chase knowed About that! The fact that Bowie and Raj we're dating, of course. Not the fact that the fandom is crazy for them. So, as a indirect revenge for MK, he was double eliminated with Raj!
Ripper and Damien have a... Interesting friendship. A "nerd hater" and a nerd!
Ripper was... Adorable? Yeah, he went from being a pathetic alpha male wannabe, from being a even nicer version of Owen, and because of that "adorable" personality that he gained he made Damien, Zee and especially Chase be his best friends! (Axel and scary girl too) Good for him, I guess.
Damien screamed a lot until His friends convinced him that being public humiliated in live television isn't that bad!
And Millie was nice, she tried to write a book about how much this generation is potentially bad, but after Priya's elimination, she learned that it was just a exception! There IS good people from this generation, you just need to find the right ones! (Priya not included)
And let's go to the final 3...
Axel, she had everything to win! The strength, the power, the personality... But, Ripper and Scary Girl missed her, so they finded a way to make her go back to them! That's what you gain when you are friends with a fake emo and ex-bad boy.
Zee, how did he got in there?! He could easily be eliminated until the merge but no one wanted to! And if wasn't for the "milk" part of the last challenge, he would have won! But he didn't.
And Bowie won! He used and eliminated half of the cast not counting with Wayne and Raj, of course.
Chris: So yeah, EVERYONE that I mentioned is back!
-Then it cuts to Chris in the passagers cabin with the 16 participants.
All the 16 participants are in here
The one that went out first:
Caleb: I'll make YOU guys regret voting me off...
-Caleb said in anger, while pointing at Bowie
Bowie: geez...
Ripper: you got a bit 'edgy' after 1 year, huh?
Caleb: what?
The most misunderstood one:
Ripper: huh?
Chase: wait, since when Ripper is misunderstood?
And the worse one:
Chase: excuse me?!
Emma: pff...
And of course, the winner:
Bowie: yeah, exactly, me!
Chris: well, I don't know if you guys noticed but Bowie was the Unic villain after a long time that won a season, the Unic one that did that was heather.
Bowie: wait, reall-

A Shitty Recap of An Unearthly Child
For convoluted legal reasons, the very first episode of Doctor Who, An Unearthly Child, is unavailable for the public to screen (they cover the details here: https://www.ign.com/articles/why-the-first-four-doctor-who-episodes-ever-made-wont-be-on-bbc-iplayer ). So I’ll be recapping it with some screenshots here!
[Image ID: The words “An Unearthly Child” superimposed over an image of a 1960s police box]
We open with a scene of a police officer walking through the mist, opening the gates to the Foreman Junkyard and passing by a Perfectly Average Police Box.
Cut to Coal Hill High School, where the bell has rung to signal the end of the day and we see our leads, BARBARA the history teacher and IAN the chemistry teacher.
[Image ID: a man and a woman talking in a high school chemistry classroom. There is a chalkboard in the background]
BARBARA: We need to talk about Susan.
IAN: Susan?
BARBARA: You know, the fucking weirdo.
IAN: I do know, though when you put it like that-
BARBARA: Look, her grades are really high but her homework is shit, and when I went to go see where her home address is I ended up in a random junkyard.
IAN: Well, that could’ve been a typo in the school system.
BARBARA: Maybe, but when I went to go ask her about talking to her grandfather, she said that it would be absolutely impossible. For her only living relative, don’t you think that sounds a little-
IAN: Don’t!
BARBARA: Sus?
IAN: *sighs* Well, there’s probably some perfectly reasonable explanation for it.
BARBARA: I promised to go lend her a book, want to help me get to the bottom of it?
IAN: Sure.
Cut to SUSAN in another classroom, stimming!
[Image ID: Susan standing in the foreground, holding a radio with one hand and drumming her fingers on her wrist with the other. Barbara and Ian are in the background]
BARBARA: I have that book about the French Revolution you wanted, Susan.
SUSAN: Oh, thanks! I’ll return it tomorrow.
BARBARA: You can return it when you’ve finished it.
SUSAN: I will have finished it by tomorrow :3
IAN: Nice Beatles tunes you’re listening to there.
SUSAN: Wow, I didn’t think you were young enough to know about the Beatles.
IAN: Listen, student of mine, I was just about to give Barbara a ride home, and I’ve got extra room in my car if you want a lift.
SUSAN: Umm, you know what, I think I’d rather walk home in the dark. That has spookier vibes. Yeah.
BARBARA and IAN exit the room. We hold on SUSAN, who starts flipping through her book.
[Image ID: Susan flipping through a book]
SUSAN: The fuck is this bullshit?
Cut back to BARBARA and IAN
IAN: Well, that settles it. Something is definitely off about that situation. We should stake out her home address and see what’s up with that.
BARBARA: Now you’re talking!
[Image ID: BARBARA and IAN standing in a classroom, looking at each other lovingly]
Cut to BARBARA and IAN in IAN’S CAR, parked outside the Foreman Junkyard eating Taco Bell.
[Image ID: the blurriest photo ever of Ian and Barbara sitting in the front of Ian’s car]
BARBARA: Did you know Susan doesn’t know how English currency works?
Flashback to the classroom, where all of Susan’s classmates are laughing at her.
[Image ID: Susan standing in the classroom, looking very upset]
SUSAN: Shit, you mean you haven’t converted to the decimal system yet? Now I’ll have to learn what sixpence and a shilling is!
[Image ID: Barbara and Ian sitting in Ian’s car again, with Ian looking slightly annoyed]
IAN: You know people from other countries exist, right?
BARBARA: Don’t chicken out on me, this whole operation was your idea.
IAN: I think you’re just really curious about this whole situation and that there’s a simple explanation for it all.
BARBARA: Her homework lately’s been shit! It’s the right thing to do!
IAN: Barbara, we’re staking out a junkyard in my car eating Taco Bell. There’s been shittier homework. Bad social skills, good schoolwork, and reading books in improbably short periods of time, you know what that sounds like to me? Autism.
BARBARA: It’s the 1960s, you’re not supposed to know that exists yet.
Then they notice Susan stepping into the junkyard and get out to follow her.
[Image ID: BARBARA and IAN standing in front of a police box, placing their hands on it]
IAN: A police box? In a junkyard? Who’s going to have an emergency in here?
BARBARA: Forget that, where’d Susan go?
Just then, the DOCTOR steps into the screen!
[Image ID: the First Doctor standing in a junkyard]
DOCTOR: Rassilon’s toenails, the only thing this planet has is weed and racism!
IAN: Hey you, have you seen a young woman wandering around here?
DOCTOR: No, I can’t say I have. And who are you again?
BARBARA: We’re Susan’s high school teachers. We’re here to check on her because we suspect that she might be hiding her grandfather’s corpse around here while the rats eat her homework.
DOCTOR: Uh huh… perhaps you have the wrong junkyard.
Suddenly they hear Susan’s voice coming from inside the police box!
SUSAN: Grandfather, you left the bong on the stack of scrap metal again!
BARBARA: Susan!
DOCTOR: Shit.
IAN: Are you her grandfather? Is she being locked inside that box? What the hell? Susan, try to dial the police from inside there!
[Image ID: the Doctor looking at Ian smugly in the foreground while Barbara looks on in the background]
DOCTOR: I think the two of you are just hearing things. You know how it is with junkyards and their junkyard echolocation. Common knowledge. This is just an ordinary, empty box.
IAN: If it’s just an ordinary box, then you wouldn’t mind stepping aside so we can look inside, would you?
DOCTOR: Oh, fuck off already!
IAN: Not in a million years. Susan, we’re coming for you!
The two of them tussle while BARBARA runs around them and opens the door to the police box.
[Image ID: some blurry shit that looks like an old man throwing hands with a guy in his 30s if you squint]
Barbara steps into the police box, and all three of them end up on the inside!
[Image ID: Barbara, Ian, the Doctor, and Susan all standing around the interior of the police box]
SUSAN: Grandfather, did you grab the bo- oh.
BARBARA: O_O
IAN: How is it bigger on the inside? That defies the laws of physics?
[Image ID: the Doctor holding up one hand as he lectures Susan. Ian watches them in the foreground]
DOCTOR: You’d better get used to it, because you’re my prisoners now. Susan, I told you something like this would happen if you tried to attend high school. Now we’ll have to get a litter box or something for them. I think Koschei left some collars and a leash somewhere around here last time he visited…
IAN: You can’t keep us prisoners in here, that’s inhumane! Besides, someone else is going to stumble onto this box eventually.
DOCTOR: Well then, it’s a good thing that neither I nor Susan are human, then? And I’ll just have to pilot the box elsewhere.
IAN: Pilot a box? But physics-
SUSAN: No, it’s true. Grandfather and I are both Time Lords from the planet Gallifrey, although those names won’t be established for another couple of seasons. The box is actually a time traveling ship called the TARDIS, which is an acronym that I came up with that’ll give a headache to anyone trying to understand the lore. We’re exiles, actually.
[Image ID: Barbara looking at Susan sweetly but sternly]
BARBARA: Susan, sweetheart, have you ever heard of brainwashing?
SUSAN: You’re inside the ship! How do you want proof more definitive than that?
IAN: That’s it, I’m out of here.
Both Barbara and Ian attempt to leave the ship, but find themselves being held back.
[Image ID: Barbara and Ian try to open the doors of the TARDIS but are unable to. Their faces are in distress]
BARBARA: Damn, that old bastard must’ve locked the doors somehow.
DOCTOR: Did you not hear the part where I said you’re my prisoners now?
IAN: I saw him pushing one of those buttons on the console!
DOCTOR: You’ll never find out which button that was! It takes decades to learn the controls to the TARDIS. Even I haven’t learned them all yet!
SUSAN: You threw away the instruction manual, grandfather.
Ian rushes at the control panel and presses a button, but the Doctor presses another button and he gets fucking tasered.
[Image ID: Susan watches as Ian gets electrocuted]
DOCTOR: Bad human! Down!
SUSAN: Grandfather, no!
DOCTOR: Let’s get out of here, we’ve stayed in one place too long already. They wouldn’t let me join the Coal Hill PTA, anyways.
SUSAN: I won’t let you!
The Doctor starts operating the controls to the TARDIS, but Susan jumps at him from behind and knocks him off balance.
[Image ID: a couple of smudges that look like Susan and the Doctor tussling behind the TARDIS console]
SUSAN: They have the Beatles and free love and people my own age here!
DOCTOR: My child, you’re several decades older than every other human at that high school.
SUSAN: I don’t care, you can’t tell me what to do anymore!
They knock over several levers and press multiple buttons in the process, and a few seconds later, the wheezing noise of the TARDIS taking off is heard. Everyone inexplicably passes out, and we fade to black. Then, the TARDIS reappears in an ancient landscape, where we see a strange face looking upon it…

It’s been a bit! But I suppose that’s normal for these. I did have a good reason for it taking so long this time. In the first episode recap or whatever you’d like to call these posts I said that I started doing them to get back into writing Unbreakable. Well! I’m done chapter 6!!! 🥳 Woo! Well… mostly done it. I have to like, write at least a couple verses for a song Stormer wrote and do my usual week of proofreading before I post it. But! I’m 99% done it!!!
Let’s celebrate my new spare time with an episode of Jem.
I had literally no idea what this episode’s title was. It completely escaped me for some reason. Why am I so confused by that?
Kimber’s my favourite character! How did I forget the episode with her name in it? I think the actual answer is that there are a couple episodes where Kimber’s rebelled and those ones were a little more of a meaningful rebellion. Especially the one that really kicked off my favourite Jem ship.
Oh by the way. I actually forgot that the last episode ended on the yacht being on a crash course with an oil tanker. I think part of why I don’t feel too bad about how densely packed my Jem fanfics tend to be is because the show itself covers a lot in each episode.
Let's get to it.
So the yacht almost crashes into the taker ship, Danielle’s crew manages to save the ship. Although the party guests get a little thrown around.
Jem included!
So… Is this how boats work? I grew up in a landlocked province; I didn’t even see the ocean until I was in my mid-20s. My family would go to a lake but it was small, probably too small for a speeding yacht. I don’t know boat physics.
Anyway, Rio pulls Jem back onboard.
And here is our first kiss between Jem and Rio. Jerrica got caught up in the moment and gave her boyfriend a kiss on the lips. But of course she’s Jem right now and Rio to his credit, pulled away and said that it’s wrong to cheat on Jerrica with Jem.
He’s not bad in these first few episodes!
With the crisis averted everybody makes sure Jem and Rio are okay, then they see the Misfits taunting them from their little speed boat. And Stormer does a Flim Flam as hell laugh. Sorry Sue Blu I love The 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo so I associate this style of laugh with the lovable scam artist. Now that everybody’s nice and frustrated with the uninvited guests they decide that they need to start filming Jem’s first music video as soon as possible. Anthony says he’ll direct it, and the countess offers to fund the whole thing and fly everybody to Paris.
Kimber wanted to do the whole thing the very next day. But Jem being Jerrica is like, “Sounds great, but we need to actually record our album first.”
Now we cut to Starlight Mansion and the girls. Krissie says that Jem and The Holograms will be leaving in two days. Deirdre is pretty into the idea of Paris but Ashley sure isn’t. She’s pretty darn bitter about how everybody is talking so much about Jem.
Lela asks Ashley how much money she’s made for the Honor Jar (We’re almost done with this thing. So far I haven’t spelled it Honour Jar once.) and Ashley presents the $30 she got off of Stormer. But Lela explains the rules of the jar, you must say how you earned the money because the work is as important as the cash.
Ashley has a pretty understandable reaction. She’s new and feeling unwelcome. She’s been getting criticized a lot lately and reached her breaking point. Ashley throws the money to the floor and storms out.
Yeah she didn’t earn the money in a way that would be seen as “acceptable” but I feel like at this point Ashley feels like nothing she’ll do will be good enough for the people in this foster home. And who knows what her previous one was like. This could be something she’s been dealing with for years for all we know.
Time to watch Jem and The Holograms record their first album. The song playing is Twilight in Paris, I’ll say more about it after the actual music video.
Rio asks the band to tighten up the song and asks them if they can keep going. Jem tells him that they’ll keep at it until they nail the song.
Then we get an immediate comparison to The Misfits who are recording their album. Eric tells them to pick up the tempo, Stormer enthusiastically agrees to work at it. But Pizzazz and Roxy have very little interest in honing their craft.
Then Pizzazz complains to Eric that he’s not flying her group to a place like Paris. And Eric tells her that he can only embezzle so much money from Starlight Music before he owns it.
But he does fly Zipper to Paris in order to sabotage Jem’s music video.
After a quick pan over Paris we see Anthony going over the steps for the music video with Jem. Kimber gets jealous of Jem and storms off.
She starts heading towards Zipper and her first kidnapping of the show. But Rio catches her in time. And well
is pretty rough with Kimber.
Kimber’s frustrated and tells Rio to not play big brother with her. And then after a little fight she goes to tell Rio that Jem’s not so great because she’s actually Jerrica. Shana and Aja stop Kimber right in time.
Kimber points out that Rio has the right to know. And she’s right! And Shana agrees with her! But also points out that this is Jerrica’s love life so she should be the one to tell Rio.
After that scene Zipper looks up at the top of a skyscraper and sees the gargoyles and he hatches a plan.
I’m fond of the song Twilight in Paris. Not because it’s a great song. It’s really not, the music video is kinda neat. No. I’m fond of this song because the lyrics feel like Kimber was scrambling to think of stuff that has to do with Paris, and France in general. And I just love the mental image of that. Kimber scribbling in a notebook everything she knows about Paris and coming up with only four things, the Eiffel Tower, City of Lights, a location Jem sings that I can’t understand, and France being a romantic country. And that’s it. That’s all Kimber could come up with in a day. It’s wonderful.
After the music video we see Zipper’s plan in action. What is this plan?
Why crush Jem of course! Literally!
The gargoyle misses the mark though. Zipper is very good at his job.
Rio gives Jem a tight hug after her close call and she asks him to never let go.
Kimber’s not dumb and knows exactly who sent Zipper.
Time to get an update on the Ashley subplot. She runs away from home and to a bar frequented by the Misfits.
Stormer likes kids. I did a post about it. She sees Ashley at the bar, leans down to get closer to eye level and asks Ashley for her name, and if she’s in trouble.
Pizzazz leads Ashley into the bar and I highly doubt it’s because she likes kids. She probably just saw an opportunity to get at Jem. Or Jerrica. At this point she probably dislikes them equally.
Now we see the Misfits giving Ashley some life lessons. These lessons are the opposite of what Jerrica’s been teaching her girls. Be rude, be pushy, never thank people.
Back to the stars of the show, intended stars anyway, and they’re discussing things with Danielle. Kimber’s still jealous of Jem. I do like how Danielle calls Kimber “my petite.” It’s pretty cute. I think the countess likes Kimber.
After getting into the airport, whatever section this is, I’ve never been on a plane, Jem runs off to change. And we get our first instance of Rio’s pissiness. Aja reminds him that Jerrica is supposed to meet them at the airport and he blows past her to be all mopey. Jerrica’s disappointed that Rio took off.
Aja promises her that taking a look around town will cheer her up. However...
*laughs hysterically*
Oh, sorry. I just forgot how shitty this poster looks.
Um.
Okay, so while Jem and The Holograms were in Paris The Misfits were busy putting up posters advertising them. Or maybe Eric hired a bunch of people because Pizzazz and Roxy couldn’t be bothered. Either way, their faces are plastered all over town.
Song time! This is a pretty nice song complete with convenient hole for Pizzazz to climb out of. We see Jem and The Holograms along with some Starlight Girls running around town trying to hang up all their posters and just advertise their band in general. But they’re being sabotaged the entire time. And one of the saboteurs is Ashley.
Kimber sees this and she is not happy.
She confronts Eric in his office where he is writing directly onto his desk.
And Eric starts being creepy as hell! Stop it! Jesus. If Jerrica’s 18 then Kimber’s only 15.
Eric tries to butter up Kimber by saying that as the songwriter she deserves far more credit than she’s getting, that she should be star instead of Jem. And even offers to sign Kimber on without Jem. She doesn’t outright say no to the offer but she does leave.
Now to Starlight Mansion where we see Aja and Shana reading magazines, Kimber playing guitar, and Jerrica being bushed from all the work they’re been doing. Then the phones rings.
It’s Lindsey Pierce! She asks to speak to Jem and after filling her sisters in Jerrica speaks to Lindsey in the exact same tone of voice she normally speaks in and says, “This is Jem.” I can excuse Lindsey for not really caring because Jerrica is currently a nobody. But it’s just very funny.
Lindsey says that she only wants to interview Jem and she’ll do something with the Holograms at a later date. But when Jerrica tells Kimber that only Jem is invited to this interview Kimber yells and storms out declaring that she’s going to go solo.
Hey look, Kimber’s first cry of the show. Not counting the funeral. *adds this to the Kimber rarely cries around others pile* Don't worry I won't call attention to every time a character cries. I'm just putting these into my crying folder. That is a totally normal sentence I just typed.
After Aja and Shana try to comfort Jerrica she decided to make a phone call to Lindsey to insist that the entire band be on her show. And Lindsey doesn’t mind one bit.
With that mess sorted out it’s now time to sort out a different mess. Getting Kimber back. Jerrica knows her baby sister well and figures that Kimber’s driving aimlessly while listening to her favourite radio station. And heads there in the Starlight Express to ask the DJ to broadcast a message to Kimber. Jerrica figures she’d be too unknown to get any air time but Jem definitely would be allowed on the air.
They deliver their message and Kimber hears it and returns home saying that with no Jem there is no Holograms.
Rio pulls up and calls out to the group that they’ve got 15 minutes until air time. Jerrica tells her sisters to take the roadster while she rids with Rio in his van.
There’s a lot of vans in this show.
During the drive Rio tells Jerrica that he can’t be Jem’s manager anymore. That he’s afraid he’ll hurt Jerrica. And she insists that Rio keeps working for them because they all need him and he’s irreplaceable. Rio does give in because it does mean a lot to Jerrica that he stays a part of the team.
He did not appreciate Jerrica being pulled off to do more work for Jem, as shown by him shaking his head. Part of the problem probably was the fact that Jerrica got yanked out of their hug.
Live interview time! The Misfits see this and are not happy. They run out of whatever building they're in to put a stop to it.
So, before I started this episode summary I tried very hard to remember which Misfits song played in this episode. There’s a reason I couldn’t remember! There wasn’t one!
I like this song a lot. I find myself singing it on occasion. To be honest I generally prefer Misfits music and those are the songs that tend to get stuck in my head. But there are some Holograms ones I find myself humming and singing.
Boop.
What was I doing? Oh yeah, the interview!
At some point the Misfits picked Ashley up before arriving at the TV station. Last time we saw them they were hanging out in one of their houses. I think. It's unclear where they were.
Well, trying to get in with the Misfits name didn’t work so Pizzazz sent Ashley in. And Ashley distracts the guard by kicking him really hard in the shin.
Lindsey asks Jem and a really good question. Where did the name Jem and The Holograms come from?
I suppose an easy answer would be to say that it sounds cool and futuristic.
But before Jem can think of that explanation the interview gets interrupted by The Misfits. They’re their usual pushy selves and Jem stands up to them and insults them. Good for her! I like how this show isn’t afraid to have the protagonist be rude right back.
A quick tangent because my brain is funny. I listened to the Jem audiobooks a while back and was amazed by how completely rude Jem is in some of them. Not because she was being rude to Pizzazz, but because she was being rude to everybody. The show strikes a nice balance. Jerrica does get more patient with Pizzazz post-syndication but not a lot more patient, and in season 3 all that patience is gone. With good reason!
Back to the show, Lindsey sensing a brawl on her hands asks the station to cut to commercial. She informs the Misfits that she was planning to invite them onto the show for an interview too, but now she doesn’t want to.
The Misfits demand equal time and that they get to play a song so they take the instruments on stage. But Jem isn’t having any of this and pulls Aja’s guitar out of Stormer’s hands.
Lindsey’s had it. She asks the men on the set to escort these ladies off of the set.
youtube
And we get our first slap of show. Pizzazz tells Lindsey that her show isn’t classy enough for The Misfits.
Rio is one of the people dragging the Misfits away. He grabs Pizzazz and she makes an offer to Rio, that he should work for her. And Rio turns her down. So Pizzazz elbows Rio in the gut sending him careening off into some equipment which causes a domino effect putting Jem’s life at risk.
A fire breaks out and that is where the episode ends.
A lot of fire in this show.
And well, now you see what I mean when I say that Jem is a densely packed show. A lot happens in it. Part of why these first five episodes are like this is likely the nature of the original release of them. But wow, this is a lot to take in. Imagine being a kidling trying to keep up, watching the shorts once a week. What if you missed one? You’d be so lost!
The next one of these should get done a lot sooner than my current pace. I'd like to finish the opening five episodes before I finish writing that dreaded wedding I promised.
#Jem and the Holograms#Kujo Watches Jem#I was originally not going to put these in the main tag but they seem to be pretty well received so I'll keep doing it

ANDOR SPOILERS
Andor is the best Disney+ show, hands down. It shows they actually have the capability to create complex story lines and complex characters, without the childish storytelling we keep seeing in media nowadays (one-liner after one-line, all action no substance, etc.).
It has a clear, strong message that is not only relevant to modern society, but its heart achingly realistic—we see it everyday (“The Empire has been choking us so slowly, we’re starting to not notice.”). Cassian getting profiled and arrested for walking and sentenced to jail because of a black-and-white system who couldn’t care less about the people. A man getting shot and hung for standing in the wrong place at the wrong time when he was just trying to help. Lands seized under an invading government’s control after the first “legitimate” excuse the government got. Showing rebellion isn’t being all nicey-nice and patient and good, but it’s dirty and brutal and grim.
And, I mean, the way they convey the Empire—not just some big, scary, obvious enemy like Darth Vader or the Emperor. It’s a little man who wants to feel big. It’s a woman who wants respect and power. It’s a room full of politicians who think of people as paperwork and pawns. It’s stormtroopers and security guards who feel protected behind their helmets and badges to act anyway they want and abuse anyone they want. It’s so nuanced and realistic, it hurts.
And that’s why it’s effective media. It’s real. There’s no room for misinterpretation. It’s a clear message of “This isn’t fiction. This is real. This is happening. This has been happening. The Empire is real and it’s here, NOW, and we need to do something or it’s going to get worse.”
No flashy lightsabers (yet). No big scary Darth Vader (yet). It’s real people vs. real people. It’s a rebellion.
It’s a masterpiece.
I could go into much more detail about why this show is so amazing (and I will; maybe and episode by episode recap pointing out all the amazing detail, because each episode is just so complex and important), but I want to watch the whole season first before diving in. But so far, it’s incredible. It’s art. And I hope we get more Star Wars content like this.

supernatural s11e10 the devil in the details (w. andrew dabb)
oh god. a funko pop?? of sam?? this is how we start an episode while sam is in the cage again with lucifer, thin plot to cover product placement. hokay.
SAM
Yeah. You’ll taunt me and you’ll, ah, torture me, and I’ll say no. And eventually, sooner than you think, my brother’s gonna walk through that door and kick your ass.
LUCIFER
Dean? You’re betting on Dean?
SAM
I always have.
i didn't see rowena colluding with lucifer coming, but it makes sense, which is nice.
LUCIFER
We’re in a memory Sam, one of the few good ones from your childhood. By the way, I thought I had Daddy issues, but you, wow! Anyway, I think you recognize the dashing young bean-pole over there.
hey young sam's colin ford grew up! actor is 20 now. haven't seen him since 7x03 with the jewel staite mess
ROWENA
Not yours! His! Hell is his! I’m his. So hurt me and what do you think he’ll do to you?
CROWLEY
Lucifer will never get out of that cell.
ROWENA
You’re willing to stake your life on that? On Sam Winchester?
that rowena was (bad) dreaming about crowley getting a funko of sam is hurting my brain just a little bit.
CROWLEY
And, he’s the devil.
ROWENA
You say that like it’s a bad thing.
CROWLEY
Oh, I’m a bad thing. He’s a worse thing. Last time Lucifer went topside you know what he wanted? Death. For you. For me. And every human. And every demon.
ROWENA
He’s changed.
CROWLEY
Oh yes, of course. All he needed was the love of a horrible woman.
good one, crowley
...smiting sickness, okay. sure, why not
CASTIEL
That explains it. You’re suffering from smiting sickness.
DEAN
That... that’s a thing?
CASTIEL
Yeah. The angels... what they did... it released a tremendous amount of energy and there’s fallout, so this whole area is poisoned.
i'll be honest, i forgot about the smiting. that i watched literally 24 hours ago. this is why i need the pre-ep recaps. if i don't write about it, woosh in one ear out the other (which also is an indicator i don't care too much :S)
didn't really wanna relive swan song but here we are.
what, MUSHY MUSIC. i had to go pull up actual 5x22 and it in fact, does NOT have the mushy music in this scene LOL. no score at all until they fall in the hole, and it's not the mushy music melody. iiinteresting. i wondered if the mushy music melody was something i just failed to notice before, now i wonder if i did happen to notice its first appearance.
they also definitely changed the levels on the screams and stuff falling in the hole haha. weird. that all was very strange. like the same scene but different production aesthetics
nice to be able to actually see billie. is that it for her? how about for young sam too? just little pop-in cameo. even got to see adam briefly in the flashback, see guys, we didn't forget him!
i feel like we're in heaven again, this tour of sam's memories with an agenda
LUCIFER
This is the worst thing you’ve ever done.
SAM
Really?
LUCIFER
After the Leviathans, when your brother was trapped in Purgatory, you were here... with a girl and a dog. You didn’t even bother trying to find him.
SAM
You know what? Not that I have to defend myself to you, but Dean and I promised we wouldn’t look for each other.
LUCIFER
Right... and if he never came back you’d be fine. But he did. So you’re not.
we're gonna gloss over the logic on that one. i'm still on the fence, i can defend either position (that it was an in-character choice or not) but i was definitely leaning towards defending sam when it happened
LUCIFER
And... so why did you let Dean talk you out of closing the gates of Hell? ‘Cos the old Sam never would’ve done that. Not ever.
SAM
I didn’t...
LUCIFER
No wait, here’s my personal favorite, is you doing every stupid thing you could to cure the Mark, even after you knew it would go bad.
SAM
My brother was dying!
LUCIFER
Yes! And you’d do anything to save him. And he’d do anything to save you. And that is the problem. Because of this [Lucifer points to Past Sam and Amelia]... you’re so overcome by guilt that you can’t stand to lose Dean again and he could never lose you, and so instead of choosing the world you choose each other, no matter how many innocent people die.
didn't know that was a direct quote from the show, definitely heard that line before though. is that the reason though? guilt from what went down with amelia when dean was in purgatory? i know lucifer is gonna be saying whatever will get sam all messed up but. feels like a weird pressure point
SAM
You’re going to lecture me about hurting people? You?
tell him, sam
LUCIFER
You know I’m right Sam. You know it! And I know if you’re going to beat the Darkness you have to be ready to die. You have to be ready to watch the people you love die. A long time ago you could have fought the good fight kid, but not anymore. You can’t win this one Sam. You’re just not strong enough.
SAM
And you are?
LUCIFER
Hey, snappin' necks and cashin' checks is what I do.
LOL okay. lucifer obviously has an agenda, is he really supposed to what. make sam doubt himself enough that he says yes?
AMBRIEL
Well, that's why we're here, right? I'm a number cruncher and you… like I said, I've heard the stories. You help. But Sam and Dean Winchester are the real heroes.
wow, sick burn.
DEAN
Where’s Sam?
CROWLEY
Don’t worry about Sam.
DEAN
I’m sorry. Have you met me?
very cute, thank you
during this last push lucifer is all up close and brought his voice down to almost a whisper, reminds me of this particular bit that really hit me in 7x02 where hallucifer's voice is trying to wake up sam and it's all soft and sweet and quiet and agh. i really do appreciate mark pellegrino in this role very much, he brings a lot to it and it's all the more threatening and awful because of it
SAM
Well, let’s say you gank her... then what?
LUCIFER
I move to LA... solve crimes?
was lucifer the show airing at this point? LOL apparently the first episode aired 5 days after this spn episode (i watched it when it was airing-ish, but that was a 'will they won't they' that pushed so hard i lost interest after it got picked by whoever because i didn't really care about the procedural aspects lol)
SAM
Wrong. Then you go about starting the Apocalypse, again, because you're an old dog and that's your old trick.
LUCIFER
Okay, first off, you don't know that. Second, even if I did that's better than what she has planned.
SAM
Is it? Really? 'Cause this is what I think, I think that whoever wins, you or the Darkness, everyone else loses. So, no. My answer is no. This isn't because of Dean, or the past, this is about me having faith in my friends, having faith in my family. We will find a way. I'm ready to die and I'm ready to watch people I love die, but I'm not ready to be your bitch.
haha what a line. little over the top but okay i'll take it
well that little cagematch had some good sam and dean moments, and really like the lighting on that top right one of dean half in red and blue. blah blah fun to paint
castiel sure actin shifty, what's up. oh did someone hitch a ride in cas
LUCIFER
Last words?
CASTIEL
Can you really beat her?
LUCIFER
I can.
CASTIEL
Then, yes.
oh for FUCK'S SAKE, CASTIEL. why do they do this. misha trying to act like pellegrino!lucifer, hard pass, too. good grief.
surely rowena doesn't stay dead...?

Build Up, Ep 4 Recap: Kick It v The Little Prince
Welcome back to the project nobody minds waiting two weeks for -- my MNET Build Up Recaps! In the previous one, we finally finished episode 3, seeing that match up between Jay and Wumuti. In this one, we’ll see WEi’s Seokhwa and AB6IX’s Woong take on two trainees. Will the sunbaes beat the hoobaes? Will the hoobaes rebel? Only one way to find out!
After a super brief recap, the episode dives in to the first match of the episode: idols versus trainees. People comment on the flashy outfits idols Seokhwa and Woong are wearing, and wonder if they’ll dance.
“Idol beauty radiates -- Kang Seokhwa (left) x Jeon Woong team”
They introduce themselves as “fate,” and I think it’s a pun/meme that would make sense to Korean viewers because it makes everyone else laugh.
Both Woong and Seokhwa were on team Ditto, and Woong ended up with a low tier ranking even though I think his voice sounded quite nice.
In comparison to Seokhwa and Woong’s punky idol styling, the trainees Ji Yeonwoo and Jeong Yunseo are dressed simply and cutely.
Yeonwoo, left, was low tier in Decalcomanie for forgetting the words, poor kid.
You might remember Yunseo most for his red outfit in the first episode that made him look like he drove racecars for a living. (It was cute, don’t get me wrong.) You might also remember his bold confidence in his team performance of Beautiful, where unlike his fellow trainee Minseo, he seemed to be completely sure that he’d succeed. I really love his attitude!
The judges start off by asking the trainees if they’re nervous, and Jaehwan reminds Yeonwoo about his mistake. Yeonwoo says that he’s been having nightmares every night reliving that moment and that it was the worst moment of his life. Poor kid, god, can you imagine? I just want to hug him. Anyway, he promises not to make a mistake again. The other judges yell at Jaehwan for bringing it up.
The two teams trash talk a little -- the trainees say that they have nothing to lose, essentially. The idols say that the trainees are cute, and that they think beating the trainees would be a good story for MNET. Eunkwang rightfully points out, however, that a better story for MNET would be if the idols lose!
Time for a flashback.
It’s the duet-forming portion of the day, and we see Seokhwa go straight for Woong. Since Woong was in the Low Tier and probably was scared no one would pick him, you can tell he’s really glad to see Seokhwa!
“This is the narrative,” reality-savvy Woong interviews. “If you fall and go back up? That’s the narrative.” Yes, but unfortunately, MNET also likes it if you fall and keep falling. They’re sociopaths that way.
This pair up may not have been the best idea, as we’ll see, but it makes a lot of intuitive sense that these two would want to work together. For one thing, they have had similar careers so far. Both WEi and Ab6ix could be considered post-ProduceX101 groups, and they debuted 15 months apart (first AB6IX, then WEi). They would have friends in common, for starters, and given that both groups put out three singles each in 2021 and 2022, they had to be promoting at the same time at least a few times. Woong is Seokhwa’s sunbae since Woong debuted first, but Seokhwa is older, making their relationship a bit more balanced. Also, they obviously solidified their friendship during their preparations for Ditto. Plus, Seokhwa wanted to work with another idol so they could do an idol-style performance, something more dynamic than Ditto. As I said, it all makes sense, especially if you remember that often times the winning group on Boys Planet would be the group that got along better.
Ok, in this next portion I need to talk about Ji Yeonwoo and Jeong Yunseo. I think that if I were reading these recaps, I’d find those names similar enough that I wouldn’t be able to remember who is who and I might have to scroll up and down a lot. So, I’m going to call Yunseo “driver Yunseo.” This is for two reasons: (1) He looked like a racecar driver on the first day.
And (2) because he really is a “driver” in this storyline!
The flashback also shows us poor Yeonwoo, waiting for a duo partner. He voice-overs that after he messed up the lyrics, he felt like he wanted to “hide in a rat hole.” It looks like no one wants to work with him… until driver Yunseo comes over to rescue him, saying, “Let’s go, ‘04s.” Aww, they’re chingoos! (A “chingoo” is someone the same age as you, which makes you feel like you’re friends -- it’s a Korean cultural thing I don’t totally get.)
Driver Yunseo thought they’d be a good match, and I think it was smart on his part to pick Yeonwoo too. The two maknae on a show will always get a kind reception, even if they don’t always get the highest scores.
Driver Yunseo either genuinely wants to cheer up his chingoo or he knows that he has to get Yeonwoo’s confidence up if they are going to have any chance of winning, or both, because he puts his arm around his chingoo’s shoulders, he gives him complicated high-5s, and just generally does everything in his power to pump Yeonwoo up. It’s cute.
Driver Yunseo says: “Ji Yeonwoo, Nekkoya (you’re mine!)”
With Driver Yunseo’s infectious confidence beginning to spread to him, Yeonwoo vows to “rebel” and win this time. Driver Yunseo says, “I promise you, I’ll make you a narrative.” Yunseo GETS IT, you guys. I really like this kid.
Anyway, so, all the guys are sitting on the floor whispering to each other about which duos they want to challenge. Driver Yunseo says, “the team I think we can beat no matter what is Kang Seokhwa’s team.” I hate to say it, but that was pretty smart.
Ok, hear me out, because I really like all four of these guys and wouldn’t want any of them to be sad or anything, but I have noticed that Seokhwa’s voice is a bit weak. It’s a very pretty, sweet, light voice; he has a lot of potential, and a lot of current charm, seeing as he did get a judge’s vote. But he often strains on higher notes, and his belts sound like he’s tensing up his throat a lot. He’s super stable as a performer in WEi and is really well suited for the idol life. I’m just not sure that his vocals are quite to the level this show expects. Sorry, RUi!
I also think that as outwardly cheerful as Woong is, I think he’s really feeling low. I actually really like the texture of his singing voice, and think the judges were unnecessarily rough on him. Being put in the low tier when he’s a main vocal was probably pretty distressing for him. Even though *I* know his voice is really nice, it doesn’t seem like anyone on the show really seems to think so. No one is telling him his voice is nice. Only 14 people voted that they’d want to work with him. So with Woong’s confidence and reputation both kind of in the dumpster, he’s also an easy target.
The trainees correctly deduce that the idols are going to want to do something bouncy and higher energy, maybe with the some dancing, and think that they themselves can win by using their vocal skills and youth to charm the judges. “It’s not a bad picture for us if we try to beat the seniors. Not a bad picture at all,” Driver Yunseo whispers to his chingoo. I’m telling you, Yunseo GETS IT.
So up until now, I’ve been unclear as to how the whole situation with the Rival Choosing Platform Area (RCPA) worked. This time, we actually hear Solar announcing Seokwa and Woong’s names, so they were somehow selected to go down to the RCPA. You’d think that maybe the show could have told us how this all works at any point, but that would have eaten into their instant replay time, so I guess not.
Seokhwa and Woong invite a challenger.
And then a few other teams head down to the RCPA, which kind of hurts the idols’ feelings. Do they look like pushovers? They’re challenged by our two trainees, as well as by Team Geonu x Soomin and Team Hong Seongjun x Kim Seohyung.
Left to right: Woong, Seokhwa; Kim Seohyung, Hong Seongjun, Geonu, Soomin, Driver Yunseo (hidden), Yeonwoo.
Interesting, those two other teams end up each others’ rivals and are up third in this episode! So we’ll see them in the post after the next one.
The trainees make their case.
“I thought it would be an interesting scene, you know, for the viewers, you know, if the idols and trainees go against each other.”
“Ahh!”
“Especially if we win!”
“What?”
“Nothing!”
Seokhwa chooses the trainees, reasoning that they’d be easy to beat. And only later do we find out that Woong had told Seokhwa that the trainees were the one team he wanted to avoid, because it would be disastrous to lose to them! But more on that shortly.
The trainees decide that to show off their singing skills and youthful appeal, they’ll sing “The Little Prince,” originally performed by Ryeowook from SuperJunior. The song was released in 2016, when Ryeowook was almost 30, but it’s a sweet and youthful-feeling little song about love and friendship inspired by the classic story The Little Prince.
Sample lyrics:
Making a heart that is like the wind stay with me
Is such a hard thing I know
But I won’t say anything, I’m just waiting for you
The Little Prince told me
That gaining someone’s heart
Is the hardest thing to do, come to me
The Little Prince said to me
It might be sad right now
But we’re never gonna be apart
That you’re going to want to laugh with me
As they head into the performance, poor Yeonwoo talks more about how miserable he was after he made his mistake. The stakes are high! He vows to do better this time.
Watching the trainees getting ready, Baekho and Seungkwan -- who are signed to the same agency -- talk about how their monthly evaluations as trainees made them more nervous than performing ever did. Boy, do I get that! I’d rather perform 100 times than audition once.
Before they perform, the trainees do some squats, for some reason (I guess maybe to shake off the nervous energy?) and then steel themselves. It’s time!
Full version without reactions
My thoughts:
Yeonwoo, left, in the s w e a t e r over a collared shirt, and Yunseo, right.
Aww, this was cute.
Have you ever been watching a competition reality show that involve a creative element, like Top Chef or Project Runway or Glow Up or Bake Off, and a contestant says “I’ve never done this before, but you don’t win by playing it safe!” And you, watching at home, are like, “omg, why are you doing that? If you’ve never worked with leather, if you’ve never cooked lamb, if you’ve never used prosthetics, if you’ve never made caramel, or whatever the hell durned foolish thing you’re going to do for the first time on international TV, why are you doing it now?” And most of the time they end up going home, while someone who made sure to safely land the plane is the one who wins.
These two landed the plane.
This song isn’t necessarily easy to sing; it has a lot of high notes and requires a lot of vocal agility to make it through the melody and the rhythm, both of which get tricky at times. However, the “concept” or idea behind the song is relatively straight forward and easy for these two to deliver -- a sort of youthful view on love as something that you can hope for if you’re patient. Also, though Ryeowook is a main vocal of SuJu and has a great voice, he’s not someone supernatural like Chen that would be a really, really hard act to follow.
Yeonwoo and Driver Yunseo both have good, young voices with tons of potential. I think they both could use a bit more training and experience, but they really do both deserve to be on this stage. Both sounded more than a bit nervous, which may have contributed to their breath control issues, but both held strong to the end and I didn’t notice any pitchiness or major tempo mistakes, which is big.
Of the two voices, I think I like Driver Yunseo’s a little more, as a Yeonwoo is still a bit nasal at times. Yeonwoo also went a tiny bit fast at a few points, and his high notes were a little bit strained. Driver Yunseo’s lower register is really gorgeous, while Yeonwoo’s higher notes are a bit stronger. They made a great duo! I don’t think they’re going to win this show, but I’m glad they’re on it.
The MNET edit is very retrained. Mostly it’s just the two trainees singing, with occasional shots of the guys backstage looking both proud and hopeful, like this:
Hyukjin, left, and Jeong Inseong from KNK, who will be going third in episode 5.
And the judges smiling indulgently and/or uncertainly, like this:
When they’re done, everyone applauds for the maknae.
The judges say things like, “aww, they must have practiced a lot!”
Backstage, the guys joke about how well the trainees’ did -- “are they our sons? Did we raise them?” -- and also joke a bit about how old they feel in comparison to them.
“If we sang The Little Prince, it wouldn’t come out like that!” Hwanhee from Up10tion says. “Old princes would come out if we sang.” Hwanji is like, “hey man, stop talking like that.” They’re only 24/25 years old, so he has a point.
Seokhwa and Woong, waiting in the wings, say, “They did a great job. Much better than in rehearsal.” You can see the worry on their faces.
The judges vote, and we get the high and low score -- a high of 92 from Seungkwan from Seventeen and a low of 70 from Jaehwan. That’s the lowest “high score” and the lowest “low score” we’ve seen thus far, but it’s not embarrassing or anything. They look pretty happy!
Seungkwan is like, wow, Jaehwan, what’s up with the 70?
And a glowing light comes out of Jaehwan’s eyes and his body begins to slowly levitate as he says, “In place of a Dark Lord, you would have a queen! Not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the dawn! Treacherous as the sea! Stronger than the foundations of the earth! ALL SHALL LOVE ME, AND DESPAIR!”
I mean, maybe not literally.
Seungkwan mentions Yunseo’s early lines, which were in fact quite sweet and lovely. “I think it started off well and went along steadily until the end without bumps.”
Jaehwan says, “Actually I really liked it. Maybe it was the purity that comes form the vocal tone…? I felt like I was listening to angels’ songs.”
Everyone is like, wtf? You cheered for them and loved them and gave these “angels” a 70? Backstage, one of the guys mutters, “He’s going to hell.”
Jaehwan continues: “I still thought about it calmly. When I heard the song, I felt endlless possibilities, but when considering the average level of singing ability, I thought that 70 was the appropriate score. It wasn’t bad, though!”
Eunkwang says, “it was so good, but….” and he points out that Driver Yunseo sort of bounces in a bowlegged way as he sings. That’s exactly the kind of helpful feedback that a good sunbae should point out, says I, and the other judges agree.
Backstage, Seokhwa and Woong are really nervous now. I think the trainees had had a really bad rehearsal and so the idols were pretty sure they’d have an easy time of it. But now the idea that a pair of debuted idols would lose to trainees who did a kind of straight-forward performance is just really sinking into their heads.
Woong is worried that maybe people will lose interest in AB6IX if he doesn’t do well on the show. Oh, I doubt that, Woong-ah. It’s a parasocial thing -- people might even like you better if you lose.
We see a flashback to the rival choosing moment, and this is when we learn that Woong really didn’t want to go up against the trainees, because the optics of losing to them would be awful and the optics of beating them wouldn’t be much better. He had told Seokhwa as much, which Woong finds perplexing.
Seokhwa either didn’t hear or didn’t think it really mattered, and chose the trainees because he thought it would make them stand out. I think I’m with Woong on this one! Woong interviews, “I can’t get any lower than I am right now. We better win.”
The idols have a nice cozy rehearsal studio to work in, but no sweaters.
Seokhwa reveals that he overheard the trainees talking ant that they’re planning to do a bright, youthful ballad. Seokhwa wants to show that ballad vocals aren’t the only kind of vocals, and maybe doing something more hip, with an R&B vibe, would give them their own lane to drive in. The judges liked their performance skills in Ditto, so they should capitalize on that. That sounds great to me, Seokhwa!
What about maybe Butter by BTS? That song is catchy af. Or what about Blooming Day or Hey Mama by EXO-CBX? I think both of those songs would sound good as a duet, and both would get the judges on their feet! Ok, sure, with the EXO-CBX songs you’d be following in some amazing vocal footsteps, but I think it would be fine! There’s also a bit of rap to show off here.
But nope. They want to do “Kick it” by Blackpink. I don’t know why on earth they chose this song! This is one of those songs where Teddy Park had a lunch date he really wanted to keep, so he just sort of threw some notes in a random order and had Jennie sing with as much swag as humanly possible so that it sounded almost like a melody.
Also, there's another problem here. See, Woong is a very derivative singer. I really like his voice, as I’ve said before, but if you listen to his vocal check performance and compare it to the original singers’ version, it’s nearly identical, to the smallest detail. I think Woong needs to hear an example of really good singing in order to match it, and he’s not going to get it on this song. Do not get me wrong; the members of Blackpink are all fantastic performers and I always enjoy their vocals. But none of them sings in a way that is likely to draw positive attention on a show like this. Rosé in particular worries me -- she has a gorgeous natural instrument, and the YG singing style is teaching her really bad habits that might hurt her vocal cords long term. In any case, there’s nothing for Woong to appropriately mimic here to pull out an outstanding performance.
I really get the feeling that they were overwhelmed by the possibility of choosing any song in the whole world. They wanted to do a girls’ song because it would be cool and attention grabbing, and then wanted to do a Blackpink song because Blackpink is so popular, and once they’d made that choice, they sort of randomly chose this song. The choosing was stressful and they wanted to get to the part where they’d already chosen. That happened to me with my fella when we were trying to pick out curtains. Now we have curtains that don’t really match the room. Sigh.
If they had really wanted to do a girls’ song, I think Impurities by Le Sserafim would have been cool -- it has a beat and you can definitely dance to it, but it’s also kind of smooth and sexy. It has a real tune and real chords and they could have done something cool with it. Or maybe Eleven by IVE. It could have sounded really cool! (For both of those links, go to speed and set it to 1.25, or if you know how to do custom, 1.15 is perfect. That way it’s at normal speed, just a lower pitch.)
Anyway, Seokhwa wants to show how cool they can be.
They rehearse at Woong’s agency, Brandnew Music (I mean, blur it all you want, MNET, the logo is pretty obvious), practicing as hard as they did when they were trainees.
Before they start, the judges talk about how with the song they’re doing, they’ll have to really light up the stage and have fun. The judges are hoping for a good performance showcasing singing, dancing, and rap. As the lights go down, Wendy says, “This is what they’re best at. They shouldn’t be so nervous.”
Here is the full version without reactions.
My thoughts:
Overall, it’s just sort of curiously lacking something. I watched this on an airplane on my tablet, and wondered if maybe it just felt “off” because of my environment, but then I remembered that I was really impressed by Jay and Bitsaeon in the same circumstance.
They both seem so nervous, especially Seokhwa, who runs out of air in the middle of lines, and keeps brushing his hair back anxiously. Woong remembers to smile and connect with the camera, but you can almost see him trying to remember the dance steps. Woong is obviously doing a Jennie impression a lot of time, as I expected him to do, and it just doesn’t sound as good as it does when he just sings as himself.
As they sort of settle in, it seems like maybe they can relax and pull it out at the end, but then a Terrible Thing happens: Seokhwa’s voice cracks on a high note.
Oh no.
It’s pretty noticeable, and I already know that it will be a lot more noticeable when MNET does a few instant replays. Seokhwa!! Oh no!!! Baby!!
I really think both of these guys are sweet and lovable, and both have nice singing voices that are well suited to being a main vocalist of an idol group. I think a combination of nerves and bad song choice really brought them down in this case, but they haven’t lost me as a fan. Fighting!
I almost don’t want to watch the MNET edit. It starts off with lots of appreciative reactions from the judges and other guys, but as the song wears on, we start to see more looks like this from the judges:
Backstage, sympathetic Bitsaeon mutters, “They worked so hard for this,” and you know he’s thinking, “... and it turned out like this.”
Look how miserable Woong looks even *before* Seokhwa’s crack.
And then the crack happens.
We only have to hear it twice, thankfully, and Woong never gives up, to his credit, but there’s no coming back.
When they’re done, the judges applaud politely, if a bit sadly. They’re all vocalists too and they know that cracks can happen, that we’re all just fragile meat bags when you get down to it and are subject to our human failings, but…. Still. This performance wasn’t great, crack or no crack.
Backstage, the other guys try to be positive, focusing on how much time and effort went into the performance, and how hard they must have practiced.
Driver Yunseo says, “It was like watching M-Countdown”...
… but his smile tells us that he thinks that maybe, just maybe, his team has just won.
“You did a good job,” Woong murmurs to Seokhwa, who can’t bear to hear praise right now.
Dahee asks, “Are you happy with your performance?” and of course Seokhwa says no, he made a mistake and is very disappointed with himself. He seems to be barely, barely, barely holding back tears, but he is holding them back. Fighting, Seokhwa, fighting!
The judges give their scores. Jaehwan seems especially unsure how to vote, but finally he locks it in.
Wendy has given them a sympathetic 80, but Jaehwan has given a 60. (As a reminder, the trainees’ high and low scores were 92 and 70 respectively.)
Jaehwan looks genuinely sad about it, but seems to view this judging thing as a responsibility. Backstage, the other trainees say that Jaehwan is so stingy with his points!
Wendy says her favorite part was the rap in verse 2. She asks if they came up with the choreography, and says it’s not easy to do all that, so she gives them credit. Wendy kind of famously has had trouble with dancing in the past, so it makes sense she’d be impressed by dancing. She adds that it would have been better if they had enjoyed it more, which is exactly what I think. She notes that it was probably really tough for them to go up against trainees, and she felt like they deserved the score she gave based on their attempt to show all the elements.
Jaehwan says he’s “heartbroken” about it because “they’re active singers just like me, and we all perform together on music shows. They’re my colleagues who cheer me up. To be honest it’s very hard for me to rate them. Yet I rated them because I’m sitting here. I expected you to have fun on stage because I know how good you are at performance. I expected you to go crazy on stage, and I just didn’t see that today. So I gave this score because I want to see more confidence from you next time. Fighting!”
VCG chimes in with a good point: because the song was originally intended for women’s voices, changing the pitch made it less exciting. He says, “No matter how excitedly you sing with mens’ voices, it’s never exciting. You need to change your voice or something, but you didn’t. Your tone was the same when you scratched your voice, or for the low tone, or the rap. So it didn’t sound fun.” I think he is right on target with that, and it seems that all the guys listening backstage agree. It didn’t even occur to me before that this could be specifically an issue for when guys sing women’s songs, but it makes so much sense.
The idols bow 90 degrees and say thank you for the helpful feedback. I wish they could have met with the judges or a mentor in advance of the performance!
Now it’s time for the winner to be revealed.
And of course, the trainees took it, 591 to 505. Ouch -- it wasn't even close.
If you subtract out the highest and lowest scores, and take the average of the point value remaining, the average score of the other five judges for the trainees is 85 -- and the average score for the idols is 73. Aww!
With Woong’s encouragement, Seokhwa holds it together.
Yeonwoo says, “I wanted to win, but now that I did, I feel bad.”
I think that makes Seokhwa and Woong feel ever worse, though I think they’re also a bit touched by the trainee’s kindness.
Woong vows that even though they’re on the elimination list, they’re going to “build up and show their best.” But backstage, Seokhwa feels awful. He says that he thinks that he ruined round one as well and keep dragging Woong down.
Woong interviews later that he was really upset, but just didn’t want to show it in front of Seokhwa, because he’s Seokhwa’s hyung, and it’s a hyung’s job to be strong. Aww! Woong, fighting!
The judges talk about how difficult competition is. Wendy says that it’s hard to show your skills when you’re nervous, and Jaehwan points out that that’s part of your skills, to stay calm under pressure.
And on that sad note, this segment draws to a close.
In the next one, we’ll see Bain and Minseo take on Gwangsuk and Sungjung! Should be a good battle. I’ll see you then!

Honestly my expectations for episode one of v9 were below sea level and I was pleasantly surprised. Was it good? Not sure I’d say that. But it wasn’t worst case scenario bad. The mice are lame and dumb imo I honestly hate Little and all the comedic moments involving them fall flat for me. But Blake and Weiss get to talk about not Yang. Weiss is emotionally scarred from what happened and Ruby has a dramatic emotional response to learning about Penny. I wish it was more serious and less comedic as a whole and I’m really sick of these outfits. I hope Neo dies and I hope Jaune dies I’m so tired of them and I don’t know how I feel about this mystery girl we see in the intro. But by and large it wasn’t worst case scenario
Yeah you've basically listed all the moments I enjoyed. For me personally, the problem lies in Volume 9's messy tone being the worst case scenario. In a vacuum, absolutely, I love Weiss grappling with this trauma, Ruby fainting, Yang thinking she might have died... but these moments don't exist on their own and what surrounds them actively undermines the impact of each emotional beat.
Yang: "Yup I thought I was dead. No, you don't get to see me coming to that realization, or grappling with it, or trying to recover from learning differently. Why would any of that be important?"
Ruby: "I've fainted at the horror of my friend dying again. And now we're pretending I'm fine. No one has offered me any physical comfort, or pressed the 'Are you okay?' question, or waited until I'm conscious to have a key conversation about our survival here. The writing did the work of having me faint. Why would the details surrounding that matter?"
Weiss: "I'm traumatized by our fight and cannot discuss it. Wooooo go, Blake! Yeah! Awesome! You get your weapon! 👏🏻📣🎉🤸🏼♀️🎊Yup. Still traumatized. Why? Can't you tell? Omg lol an army of mice has captured us. How wacky IS this place??🤪 I am crying. So traumatized. This is an incredibly difficult time for me. [Next episode] Wait, Yang, you got your arm stolen by a purple racoon? Hilarious!"
I've got an example I want to give in my recap of how to do humor in an otherwise dark story, but tl;dr this is not it. The absurdity of so much of the episode -- the mice, the dodo bird, vine traps, Weiss acting as cheerleader, etc.--messes with the work the rest of the episode is trying accomplish. None of which even considers larger, series long questions like, "Why should I buy into Ruby's devastation at Penny's second death when she never reacted to her resurrection?" What surrounds these moments is just as, if not more important than the moments themselves and RWBY failed tonally in its premiere. Pretty spectacularly imo, which is precisely what I was afraid would happen.
To continue with the ever present baking comparisons: we're all eating a cake that, yeah, has some really nice pockets here and there. It's a good cake! ... provided you ignore the cloying, gummy, overly sweet icing that's covering the entire thing and slathered between every layer. Some fans are going to carefully dissect their slice, peeling off the inedible parts, nibbling the remains and praising the bake. Me? I'm looking at the slice as a whole and going, "I can't eat that."

SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOIL-
Episode 01, The kids will (not) be okay:
-The episode starts with Chris, Chef and the entire cast from the Total Drama island (2023) on a plane, going to a new season in a "new" place. Chris was talking to someone by a Walkie Talkie.
*Biiz*
???: Mr. McLean, seriously that you're lying to them saying that they're going to some kind of "total drama: World Tour" 2?
Chris: umm... Maybe--?
???: McLean! That's pratically clickbai-
Chris: Hey! Don't you dare use this "modern generation" language on me! Anyways, be ready because we're almost getting to there.
???: ah, ok-
- Chris ends the transmission
Chris: wow! That boy still annoying...
Chef: Chris, we're recording!
Chris: Ah, don't worry! After this introduction we will be finally free! ... I mean, just me, not you!
Chef: grr...
Chris: ah, calm down! Anyways, it's been a year 'total drama fans'! Since we don't see Each other THAT long, I'll give y'all a quick recap.
Last season on Total Drama Island:
16 new contestants showed up with the dream of taking that 1 million dollars price.
And the eliminations we're surprising!
Caleb was just there. until he even had the chance of doing something, Bowie made everyone eliminate him! Poor boy...
Nichelle humiliated herself Infront of everyone.
Emma HAD a chance of showing to everyone on live tv that Chase is (or was) a horrible person, but Chase was luckier than her.
Julia was boring, the way she talked, the "spiritual, love and peace" things that she normally talks about was annoying enough to her team.
Wayne would do anything and everything for his best friend Raj, and he was more than happy when he found out about his buddy's secret!
Scary Girl was Creepy, but not for Axel and Ripper! They we're her Unic friends that she had in a while, and the Unic ones that think that her actions are more annoying than scary.
Priya was pathetic! Seriously that she think her parents are so great that she easily go insane when someone criticizes them? Pff, surely the most well deserved elimination of that season.
Mk was smart, a little too much. And because of that, she went from being Bowie's Allie, to be a traitor! Well, it was that, that Bowie made everyone believe.
Raj has a secret, he loves Bowie! And because of that, he made our fandom go wild for them! The fandom loves them! Especially that people from that one Social Media that has "Tum" on the start...
And Chase knowed About that! The fact that Bowie and Raj we're dating, of course. Not the fact that the fandom is crazy for them. So, as a indirect revenge for MK, he was double eliminated with Raj!
Ripper and Damien have a... Interesting friendship. A "nerd hater" and a nerd!
Ripper was... Adorable? Yeah, he went from being a pathetic alpha male wannabe, from being a even nicer version of Owen, and because of that "adorable" personality that he gained he made Damien, Zee and especially Chase be his best friends! (Axel and scary girl too) Good for him, I guess.
Damien screamed a lot until His friends convinced him that being public humiliated in live television isn't that bad!
And Millie was nice, she tried to write a book about how much this generation is potentially bad, but after Priya's elimination, she learned that it was just a exception! There IS good people from this generation, you just need to find the right ones! (Priya not included)
And let's go to the final 3...
Axel, she had everything to win! The strength, the power, the personality... But, Ripper and Scary Girl missed her, so they finded a way to make her go back to them! That's what you gain when you are friends with a fake emo and ex-bad boy.
Zee, how did he got in there?! He could easily be eliminated until the merge but no one wanted to! And if wasn't for the "milk" part of the last challenge, he would have won! But he didn't.
And Bowie won! He used and eliminated half of the cast not counting with Wayne and Raj, of course.
Chris: So yeah, EVERYONE that I mentioned is back!
-Then it cuts to Chris in the passagers cabin with the 16 participants.
All the 16 participants are in here
The one that went out first:
Caleb: I'll make YOU guys regret voting me off...
-Caleb said in anger, while pointing at Bowie
Bowie: geez...
Ripper: you got a bit 'edgy' after 1 year, huh?
Caleb: what?
The most misunderstood one:
Ripper: huh?
Chase: wait, since when Ripper is misunderstood?
And the worse one:
Chase: excuse me?!
Emma: pff...
And of course, the winner:
Bowie: yeah, exactly, me!
Chris: well, I don't know if you guys noticed but Bowie was the Unic villain after a long time that won a season, the Unic one that did that was heather.
Bowie: wait, reall-
Chris: okay, this is slowly getting boring! So let's make the things end quickly!
-the ground below all the participants opened up, making all the participants fall into The water.
Chris: Ahaha... I'll miss that, and Chef already leaved without even saying "bye"!!
-Chris quickly ran to the drivers cabin, grabbing the plane's volant and taking control of it.
Chris: arg! Okay, I'll be quick! This surely the last time you all will see hosting this program! Yeah, this is Sooo sad! But listen up! The future is bullet proof and the aftermath WILL be secundary! And time to them do it now and do it loud! I am Chris McLean, and I'll see never, EVER see y'all again! Bye, losers!!
-after Chris leaved everyone behind, the scene cuts to the brand new hosts
...
Topher: Yeah, we're finally hosting our favorite reality show ever!
Sierra: But it's just so sad that Chris is gone for like... Forever?
Topher: nah, judging by the way he is he'll surely randomly appear when we Least expect it or something. But anyways, yeah, Chris finally gave his role as host for someone else!
Sierra: two to be exact.
oooo this is interesting.. also loving the topher and Sierra interactions I think they’d be besties

Spoilers for Hirogaru Sky's Christmas episode. Time to share my thoughts.
So first off it's a very wholesome episode, definitely a pallet cleanser from Otona's finale. I really enjoyed it like always. Seeing each character get a chance to see their families was touching although saddening that Mashiro and Ageha couldn't see theirs in person.
Everyone moved into the main city of Skyland, Precure at the ready to defend them from Empress Undergu. It was nice seeing Tsubasa be in charge of the barrier and I'm assuming this is a part of his new job as sage using the mirror pad in this way?
To lift the spirits of the people the Precure do what they do best, hold a Christmas (Or Strichmas as it is called in Skyland) party. It was fun watching the antics and the interactions with other characters as they set this up. I like Sora's friendly rivalry with Beryberie although I wish we got to see more of it throughout the season.
Transforming was so unnecessary in this episode, there were no Ranborgs to fight so instead they used their stock animation to fight tornadoes that were trying to hurt Tasan (Skyland's version of Santa). Ageha also used her move once to make it snow which I think was fine. I understand wanting to use the stock animation though.
Sora and Mashiro are the cutest, I already posted the screenshots I took but here they are again.
They are the best ship this season totally rooting for them. Basically, Sora's hero book was on its last page so Mashiro got her a new one but to her surprise, Sora had bought her the same gift. After this scene in the last second, something happened. Elle grew? Or was it Elleelain? It was so fast and no explanation will be given until next week.
So if the rumors are correct and we have 50 episodes this season that means like 4 more...? I'm not ready to say goodbye yet, I love everyone in this cast so much! I'm having a lot of fun making these little recap/thoughts type of thing so definitely will do them for Wonderful and Mahoutsukai 2 as well.

Shovelwarewolf Season 2 Review
Shovelwarewolf Season 2 Electric boogaloo, or the season where stuff finally goes down. I love that the story and production value jump in quality with each other in this season.
Sonic 06: Great episode to open with, we meet Susan (who definitely knows more than they're letting on), a cool season theme, acknowledgement (however brief) of the whole arm thing, and an Escape From the City parody, what's not to love.
Goldeneye: Solid episode, I think it has some of SWW's best one liners (Hell's Angels, The Mafia, GAMESTOP!). I learned to never insult Judy Dench, and that I should probably watch a James Bond movie.
Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Another fine episode, Ivan mimicking the glitch was pretty funny. I don't have a whole lot to say about this episode so I'll just write here that Ivan and Susan have a great banter, and that Susan was just a great addition to begin with, but I'll get to that later. Oh and Test Your Patience was a good capper on the episode.
Duke Nukem: Just getting this out of the way, this game is pure trash but SWW's reactions are too funny. I also like the character development at the beginning with Ivan and Susan, she really was just the only one who was nice to him. Also I don't know why this occurs to me, but the company described the next game as, "A console with a Zelda game" I just remembered that the Switch came out with Breath of the Wild in the same year as this season, I don't know how that's relevant, I just thought it was cool.
Legend of Zelda Wand of Gamelon: Oho what an episode, great gameplay, great story, and great one liners. Susan got to be really cool in this episode, which leads me to believe that she definitely planned this in advance and the therapist bit was an act (she went from running from the room during a transformation to bursting in and rescuing Ivan/SWW without batting an eye in the same day, no way that just happened). I also just love this game's stupid clips and the SWW one liners to go with them: "(Recorder noise) THANKS, (same recorder noise) THANKS...FOR NOTHING" "You've killed me, GOOD. Dang, that's savage, who knew Zelda was such an OG" and "Link gave them to me. GASP! YOU KNOW LINK, LIKE OMG" such good writing. and The Shovelwarewolf's a Running is amazing.
Home Alone: Finally we've reached the finale, pretty great all things considered. First I just want to acknowledge this little scene from Death's narration, "With the help of his therapist" while panning on cool bada** Susan, just funny to me. I'd also like to acknowledge Ivan's TV playing AJ and Nate's weird Spider-Man and Batman Save Christmas Movie, wish they'd finish that someday it looked cool. I love the Home Alone parody for the cool ways it adapts the theme, like the Gamecube trap. Santa just having 180 in terms of character and going on a full fledged villain arc is so hilarious. The game itself is weirdly a cool take on a Home Alone game, like most licensed games at the time would take tons of liberties with the source material but this one was pretty accurate, even if it still sucked. Susan got to be cool again, but at the cost of a very forlorn scene. Oh boy now we get to meet our dude Biffalo Bub, simultaneously RE's most stupid but also most realistically scary villain. That silent clip montage at the end still unsettles me.
Music Rating:
Season 2 Opening: One of the best, that opening bass riff is still so mesmerizing. And the violins, and the soft piano, and the synth, oh so good. This opening feels a lot like a triumphant return for the character.
Season 2 Transformation: Conversely this variation of the transformation doesn't really do it for me. I like the way it closes I guess, but I just don't love it. It also has this weird repeating note that just bores into my skull.
SHOVELWAREWOLF! (Test Your Patience): Pretty good parody, I love the recap of the games he's played so far (except Goldeneye for some reason).
Shovelwarewolf's a-Runnin': Great parody, it introduced me to the Werewolves of London. I love it's use in the show and the vocals.
This is My Safehouse: Great composition for the Home Alone episode. Seriously AJ really flexed his composing powers here. The synth is really great, I love the little incorporation of the transformation theme.
Sleigh-Riding Sleazebag: Not much to say on the song other than the title, and it's use of random Christmas carols, but evil.
Couch Gag: I love this gag, Ivan dubbing over game footage is so funny. Like the last one it makes me think of him being so bored he just does stuff like this to pass the time. This time I'm happy he didn't have one for Wand of Gamelon, I feel like the dialogue in that game stand on its own.
The season is so good. It gave us a great SWW mask, a great character in the form of Susan, and excellent story development. And it only gets better from here. In addition, while others have described it better than me, this season has interesting symbolism in obsession and trauma.
#shovelwarewolf#howlaween#So funny how the episode reviews were longer this time#almost like the story got better#Nate has really gotten good at screams of agony#Like seriously I really believe it when he's transforming

I'm a little more awake now, so let's do the last Grey's/Station 19 recap/reaction of the season:
Station 19:
MAYA AND CARINA. Honestly, I'm glad that this episode for them was just fluff and badassery. They've been through enough. Maya's hair was just... amazing. I loved that we got to see Carina perform c-section like that, I love that we get to see her doctor side more. And, y'know, because she's a badass.
What has been going on with Theo this season??? I used to like him, but damn. Now he's just a mess. Hopefully they'll explore that and explain it next season.........
Andy finally getting Captain of 19 was just... such a nice, full circle moment. I'd love to see her and Maya talk about it next season.
Vic deserves better than Theo, that's that. I was so hoping she'd be able to talk to him about her work (not necessarily tell him it was Beckett she saved but obviously that took a toll on her) and maybe Theo would have some empathy for once. But alas. No luck.
JACK???? MY BOY???? GET HIM SOME HELP PLEASE. THE MAN COLLAPSED.
Grey's Anatomy:
Grey's has a "too many characters" problem. I love the interns, but there's been so little Amelia or Owen (or even Teddy tbh) and many of the storylines feel rushed or weirdly paced because they have so much going on at once (we addressed Link's self-doubt one single time after he lost a patient and that's it???). I had hoped that Meredith and Maggie leaving would help with that, but it did not.
Helm and Mika are so adorable. I saw lots of comments on Twitter that they're too awkward or whatever. They've been on one date, guys, let them be silly and weird for a second 😂 I thought they were very cute. Can't wait to see how they handle Helm being senior resident next season.
Bailey winning the award had me in tears.
Still on the fence about Jo and Link. That scene was so incredible, but like... I feel like Link's entire reasoning was "I've always loved you, so stop flirting with that guy because I don't like it". But Jo does love him, so I guess it's fine???
I need more Amelia. Also real mad about no real Kaimelia conclusion.
Richard and Amelia are both struggling a bit, I'd love to see them being there for each other next season. I love their friendship.

REACTIONS TO EPISODE 5 - THRILL OF DESTRUCTION
It's the usual biz, genuine "at that moment reactions", some jokes here and there and me appreciating Miruko and my other faves.
LAST EPISODE'S REACTIONS!
Onwards!
Just knowing the chapters this episode will possibly cover and I'm ready to freak out!
Staring off with a recap, starring Miruko!
X-Less, it was nice knowing you.
Okay, I'll admit it was a little funny Miruko just laid back down after Endeavor to stay still. Like, queen, you have done enough. LAY DOWN PLEASE!! I'M WORRIED FOR YOU!!!
Oh my gosh, Backdraft?!
That little exchange between Present Mic and Eraserhead.
Maybe it's just me but Eraser Head is pretty here.
X-LESS, YOU SHOULD HAVE RAN WHEN YOU HAD A CHANCE!!!
I'll be honest... I do not like that cape on Shigaraki. He just never felt like a cape guy for me.
On the topic of the cape, why didn't it turn to ash when X-Less did? Shigaraki's quirk can spread now! Oh, what, he can control it like that now?! I NEED ANSWERS!!
"It's cold." Yes, it would be after you spent so long in a large vial of pretty purple liquid.
Fatgum really tried holding Tokoyami down. 🤣🤣
How he just dropped Kaminari, Honenuki and Komori out his fat!!! 🤣🤣🤣
"I WON'T LET YOU STEAL A RIDE OFF FATAXI!!" I LOVE FATGUM SO MUCH!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dark Shadow sounded so sad. I want to hug Dark Shadow.
They... they didn't have to show Twice now. I do not want to cry right now. Unfair.
Mt. Lady just destroying walls while Dabi monologs. Hee hee, that's golden right there.
"Think about it, you BBQ'ed birbs." Oh wow, okay. You got jokes? 🤣
FATGUM RUNNING AWAY FROM MT. LADY'S ASS!!! "A BOTTOM!!" 🤣🤣🤣
Also, thanks, Geten, for unintentionally saving Tokoyami, Dark Shadow and Hawks.
Oh, he's pretty! Like ice prince pretty! Look at his lashes!!! Awww!!!
Look, real quick, I know some of you don't like Hawks, but I swear if I see bad talk about Tokoyami I'll riot. He is just a KID who is unaware of Twice's backstory. He just knows Twice is a villain and right now the villains have to be dealt with for the sake of society. He's going to be concerned for his teacher, alright? You can't fault him for it and I'm so tired of this fandom for not understanding that. The characters are not going to know the other's backstories, alright? It ain't hard to understand. The villains and heroes just see each other as enemies. It is nothing new in the superhero genre. 🙄 So if you're gonna get mad at Tokoyami for being concerned for Hawks, if you're gonna get mad at Tokoyami for being SCARED, then I'm gonna need you to not come this way.
Now back to our scheduled program!
Ah, shit, Gigantomachia is standing up!
"I smell my master. He's... awake." That is actually creepy you know that.
MY GOTH BIRD SON GOT HIS TITLE CARD!! I gotta use those purples.
URARAKA, TOO?!
Okay, Bakugou yelling at the old lady about the chocolate bun IS in the manga. That is not a new scene.
"You just want a chocolate bun, don't you?" Well, one, yes same! Two, the fact that he is aware of that is amusing and cute. 🤣🤣🤣
I will never get tired of Iida's arm chopping motions. So precious!! 💙
Aaaaw, Koda evacuating the kitties!! HE IS JUST TOO CUTE, THAT IS MY BABY!! MY SUNSHINE!!! 😭😭😭😭🧡🧡🧡🧡
Who... who is the airplane head guy?
*Midoriya stops* Ah, shit. It's happening!!!
NOT CRUST!! I ACTUALLY LIKED HIM!!! I knew it was coming... BUT DAMN!!! THE PAIN IS STILL THERE!!! First top hero to die, too. THAT SHIT IS HEARTBREAKING!!! SOMEONE HUG ME!!
Pixie-Bob, you tried.
Garaki, do you ever want to like... NOT TALK?!
ST. LOUIS SMASH AIR FORCE!! I'm sorry, but I love it when my green boy does his moves. He's great.
Okay, I like the evacuation scenes. Todoroki with his ice, Tsu doing her thing, Uraraka doing hers, Bakugou doing that, MIDORIYA PULLING A BUS.
OH HELL NO!! THE FUCK IS AROUND MY GUY'S ANKLES?! I WON'T STAND FOR IT!!
"Overhaul wouldn't be happy to see this." WHO CARES?!
*Shigaraki calls Machia* And the madness really begins!!
Overall, again, I don't have much to say about this episode. I liked it and now I shall go mourn Crust because he deserves it. He was gone too soon. 🥲

Cmon Sam aren't you psychic
[ Anniss snickers, having apparently forgotten what this guy gets up too. Yeah Sam's just sort of psychic and it's only relevant like half the time. ]
Dean's standing here like AAA IM RIGHT HERE GODDAMMIT
Sooo true Sam but like yeah it is important
Protection since they might be attacked at any time
Dean (out of body) judging their Dad

[ Crepe and Melon are hyping up the upcoming Father Moment. ]
Oh no! Oh boy! Im a fear!

[ Crepe says they all do that. ]
Yeah I guess the last one was leashed and pissed about it
OH NO

The doctor: Hm well thats fucking bizarre
Dean doesn't remember????
"Except this pit in my stomache saying something's wrong..."
Hm
Hmm
John: (apologizes and asks not to fight)
Sam: Are you good?? You okay???
(The answer is no)
GOD. Being about to die is one helluva wakeup call. BASTARD
Dean: ??? Fear?? Worried??? Dad what?????
Oh hes telling him someth
???
Dramatically drops the coffee
Howd u drop it upright
Time of death 10:41 AM
Well damn!
Great start to season 2: Dads fuckin dead!
---
I guess that's one hell of a way to kick things off for the season, but damn. Like, after all that work they put into trying to find their dad, then trying to help him, save him... and he dies anyways. So Dean can live.
Crepe and Melon spent several more messages just roasting the hell out of John Winchester, which, while it's probably fair, rather took away from the emotion of the scene LMAO
So uh. Gonna be interesting to see how they go forward from here and what their goal will be.
So. Dad Winchester is dead, the Colt has been taken by That Specific Demon alongside its last bullet, and Dean and Sam are here and traumatized. Interesting.
#on the highway to superhell#spn#supernatural#what a fuckin ride#was kind of funny watching Dean wander around after Sam going 'hey. hey. look at me. use ur psychic powers.'#also need you guys to know Angel With A Shotgun came on while i was compiling all this stuff#thats a song u guys go nuts about right
