I think I like the "throws us and the team directly into as many details as possible for the express purpose of making it as overwhelming as possible" approach. I prefer this to the first season of Legends, for instance, that , as soon as something new was introduced, they tried to explain every little bit of it. Than again, I do like weird stuff XD I loved everything to do with the De-Creator, it was really fun.<br /><br />Also, I'm glad you are feeling better and I hope the coming months treat you better than those you mentioned. I hope you have a good support system (in whatever shape you need it) to deal with depression. I've also been there and it sucks =/Lisianpeiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10291993462387870535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-56286975002062582032019-12-30T13:36:03.960-05:002019-12-30T13:36:03.960-05:00It's a great episode.

I suspect it probably works just as well if you watch it cold with no prior knowledge, as part of the deal is to be as confusing and weird as possible.<br /><br />The next episode is called 'Paw Patrol'. And that's currently my favorite thing about the show.Mikey Heinrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053287699381988084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-35213672184369898242019-12-29T14:44:23.679-05:002019-12-29T14:44:23.679-05:00Mikey, I'm so glad you're feeling better. ...Mikey, I'm so glad you're feeling better. And btw, you can always call me. I've been through more than one gonzo spell of depression myself.<br /><br />This sounds like a fascinating episode, btw.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-64336925454665196222019-12-29T14:16:36.139-05:002019-12-29T14:16:36.139-05:00A Brief Person Note -

I'm doing lots better. I only mention it because I really want to encourage anyone dealing with the same to reach out to someone. Even though the thought of even picking up the phone is exhausting and you'll have thought of twenty reasons why you shouldn't call before you even dial anyone's number.<br /><br />Also, stigmatizing mental health issues is bullshit and I don't want to contribute to that kind of thing. That's all.<br /><br />Happy New Year, to all and particularly to sundry.Mikey Heinrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053287699381988084noreply@blogger.com
