In today’s episode, Thomas is given the job of taking Dowager Hatt and her gusts to a party at Knapford station, while showing them the sights of Sodor.
You know, yesterday I thought that Ms. Miller might have started making Thomas a bit more smarter, but oh no, in today’s striker, Thomas’s job was to get the passengers from A to B, what he’s meant to do normally, but he couldn’t even do that, he dedicated to leave Dowager Hatt’s gusts at the quarry, and at a field, surely if he had gone on with them inside the express coaches, he would have proven to them that he could pull them.
Also in today’s episode, we also saw Gordon acting the same way he has been for the whole CGI series, once again, we had all this “I’m Gordon, I’m fastest and best, and pull the express,” why? Gordon has already established himself as thinking he’s the finest and strongest engine on Sodor, that’s what we’ve always known about Gordon, but it’s just been a character assassination in the past few series and to think we had a whole episode of him saying how good he is in Gordon and Ferdinand.
It’s shameful that within the fact that Thomas is aimed at children, it’s felt that you can just copy and paste, why? When it was Awdry himself, being dedicated to making his stories, which are second nature to us, entertaining for both children and adults, that was a great part of the formula that made Thomas and his friends the great success that they are in the first place. But did Sharon Miller care when writing her episodes, no, at the end of the day, she was laughing because she was being paid by the biggest children’s programming company in the world, what did she care about the children watching it, nothing. Many fans have wished her the best for the future, despite our feelings on her writing, but I don’t. Thomas means a lot to me and to all the many others here on the World Wide Web, and to the poor children of today. Yes, she shouldn’t take all the blame for all what’s happened to Thomas, but still, if you’re reading Ms. Miller, I hope you never work in children’s television again, let alone write for any other show again. If the writers of Peppa Pig and Chuggington can write scripts that are not half bad, why can’t you? I suppose I’m maybe being a little too harsh, for you aren’t reading this review because you would be in shock to see good writing, yeah, ok, I only got a B in my English at school and like a lot of people, I don’t claim to be the best when it comes to grammar, but I’ve probably put more thought into this review than you did into the actual episode.
