    One idea that could make Missing Breakdown Train and Rocky Rescue better is what if those two episodes are mashed up together (given that they were written by Davey Moore), but instead Judy & Jerome are the ones that rescue Rocky instead of the Search and Rescue Team! Title-wise, I'd call it "Breakdown Rescue".

    The reason why Diesel 10 didn't appear after Season 17 is because Mattel deemed him too scary for younger audiences which is a shame because we would love to see him appear more in the CGI Brenner era and back to his evil portrayal because that's his true character as a villain that we love and would be part of Day of the Diesels done right with no genuine care for others, even other diesels whom some are good and friendly to steam engines. Villains are meant to be scary. What do people expect? So, there you go. Such a disappointment of him not appearing after Series 17, is it?

    "Flatbeds Of Fear has the lamest ghost story ever"
    In my opinion, Phantom Express has a worse ghost story.
    Flatbeds Of Fear's ghost story is at least *somewhat* worrying, with it essentially being a runaway train that has and will never come to a stop. Sure, runaway trains are basically a regular Sunday on Sodor, but the tension is still there.
    Phantom Express, however? I'll summarize that ghost story - "wow guys the train is puffing around and blowing his whistle, soooo scarry!!!!". That's like if I told a story about the Headless Horseman, except he's just some guy who rides with his horse in the woods and just so happens to not have a head and that's it.
    How am I supposed to perceive this ghost train as a genuine threat? For all I know, it could just be Neville going on a midnight stroll through the castle because he was feeling a bit silly that day! And the craziest part is - that unironically would've made for a more enjoyable episode than what we got!

    You know that things don't last long with Diesel and he resumes being his devious self afterwards regardless, not just in CGI but the other eras of the show. Disappearing Diesels is just a episode of Diesel playing tricks on Paxton and no more. Remember that. No offense.

    The episodes starring diesels are my personal favorite. They’d give us as Thomas fans something that could have been done had Awdry given the time to expand the characters, (I can’t wait to waste my breath on these) The Missing Christmas Decorations is a pretty sweet and cool episode that shows how mistreated the diesels were till the end, Diesel 10 had a point about everyone’s preference to steamers, Percy and Sidney’s dynamic was touching and the moral from Thomas was unbelievable. Disappearing Diesels, it gave us a reason to love Paxton even more, his friendship with Diesel might have been toxic, but at least Paxton did the right thing to help him then be mad at him. I’m also glad to see the diesels’ drivers here again. Salty All At Sea, this episode gets some flak and I cant understand why? Salty had a pretty understandable reason for why he doesn’t flies going out to sea, which makes sense given the bridge of Vicarstown. Besides he doesn’t run away and hide, but finds more work to do just to get away from his fear, besides it’s nice to see him take passengers for once. Toby’s New Friend, it develops Philip a bit more. Philip now understands the importance of being quiet and slow for once. Toby’s duo with the diesels hasn’t changed really and he has a blast showing the ropes to them. Even Philip admits that he doesn’t always have to win. And Springtime for Diesel, this episode has two characters that we thought would never happen if this show had ended, Diesel and Daisy. Diesel finally gave us an explaination for why he is so aggressive to other engines and redeems himself to become a better engine.

      Not necessarily, but I think they should've drawn from more episodes for Donald and Douglas' personality, because it's fairly one-dimensional in CGI. Davey Moore did this with Daisy, for instance, with each of her episodes being centered around a different facet of her character.

    I love the way you explain yourself to these episodes, I mean I’m a bit disappointed that not so slow coaches wasn’t at number one. But still the way you explain how good each episode is was great, and how some of the characters are in they’re original state like in the classic series. Good I like that you explain that Thomas isn’t all bad in The emergency cable. It just shows that Thomas wanted payback for what the bird watcher has done. And in All in vain, we see James trying to do better and not let his complains get the better of him so that I like. And as for Porter we should see more of him in action, like seeing his strength and weakness. We saw what Salty’s weakness is (afraid of the sea), Cranky (getting replaced), Percy (being afraid of dark places) and others too. Just saying we need more Porter episodes, but good list 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂

    I actually managed to forget No Steam Without Coal, why did you have to remind me
    I personally like Carly's colour scheme because of the reasons you listed. My ideal Sodor is one that grows and isn't immune to change, and a new crane that looks very modern and clean is exactly the kind of addition that shows change
    No Snow for Thomas is pretty much just a rewrite of a better S8 episode with the same plot and characters, it should be lower imo
    Overall I really enjoyed this

    In my eyes I think No Snow For Thomas was meant to be the episode where Thomas learns to wear his snowplough as shown in Last Train For Christmas he Doesent care about wearing it and they seem to remain consistent with it even in the BWBA seasons from what I can recall as I am 100% sure he doesn’t complain about it throughout the rest of the Brenner era

    For me episodes with a returning character or a secondary character as a lead like Duck, Oliver, Thw Twins, The SKR crew, Salty those episodes rank higher as the steam team characters bar edward are writte. Badly (Henry and Toby), Overused (Gordon, James, Percy) or extremely overused/shoehorned every episode (Thomas) and Emily I only like a handful of her episodes mlstly her pre steam team ones) which is somewhat due to me having Duck and Oliver as my favourites and Duck was going to be steam team but in the Brenner Era I enjoy some emily episodes again but mostly (I think it was bwba) where she got her number). I think the steam team basicially was a bad idea as the show was better as an essamble. Id have prefered a quota that Thomas has to appear in a role for say 10 episodes (not always as a lead) and the rest can be devoted to other characters/areas and Tidmouth back to being whoever is near at night

      Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy and Toby are like main characters to me and other fans which is obvious from the first season so perhaps a main group is required for them regardless of ensemble.

    • @Joey15811
      @Joey15811 Рік тому +1

      @davidbrennan3967 Edward was the only one who didn't suffer too badly from overuse or bad writing.
      From season 8 onwards episodes focusing on anyone else was rare or they'd be shoved into a co lead lead role. Thomas and Percy suffer with it the worst
      And also Toby, Edward and Henry were written off the main cast in later seasons.
      The show should have remained ensemble preventing overuse forcing the steam team in every episode as a lead, Co lead. Like 1 episode lead each and rest can be supporting roles as the other characters get their stories

    A Shed For Edward should be the worst, but I get why Henry Spots Trouble is the worst. 3 strike formula, Henry being a dumbass, ugh. Signals Crossed is a bad concept. Toby shouldn’t be scared of the junction, he has been there dozens of times. Emily In The Middle is a guilty pleasure for me. Flatbeds Of Fear is sh*t, but I like how Emily is written as the voice of reason in it. Away From The Sea was a good concept. I kinda like seeing this insecure side of Salty, something you wouldn’t expect from such a nice guy like him. Stuck In Gear, Harvey’s insecurities are somewhat consistent given how he was in Harvey To The Rescue. But it is a bit extreme. The Frozen Turntable was a perfect story for Gordon, I love the beautiful night shots, and Gordon’s karma. To me, No Snow For Thomas is a repeat of Thomas, Emily & The Snowplow, but in that episode, Emily actually played a good part, whereas in No Snow, Emily is kinda an NPC. Daisy’s Perfect Christmas 🎄 is visually beautiful. The Fastest Red Engine On Sodor felt like a bit of a wake-up call for James. He doesn’t seem really boastful or annoying after this. And yes, the crash is f*cking awesome. In my top 10 crashes. Bill or Ben is just simple, enjoyable fun. The ending is beyond funny, the way they twist the punishment around in their favor is beyond priceless😂. I love the dynamic between James and Edward in All In Vain. Of course the Small Railway Engines stories would be at the top of the list. I’ll collect Take N Play versions of them all someday!

    Imo, Three Steam Engines Gruff is the worst of The Brenner Era. It’s so hard to get past Toby & Percy acting really timid, and whilst I do think the music was great in that scene when Thomas crosses the bridge, because the episode directly references Three Billy Goats Gruff so much, everything feels so contrived and so forced within that scene. And then all that suspense just disappears when it’s revealed the noises were by a cow. We couldn’t even get Thomas crossing the bridge so that the suspense is fulfilled before it’s ruined by Annie & Clarabel. It suuuucks
