My SPOILER FILLED First Impressions Of The Tales Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TV Series

After coming back with a mildly successful movie last year the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are now back with a brand new animated series. With this series being based in the world of the previous movie and well as i've just seen the previous movie it was only about right that I give you my first impressions of the first six episodes of this show and so then join me I give you my SPOILLER FILLED first impressions of the show that sees a legendary actor not come back for this TV show with the show in question being called simply just "Tales Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" enjoy.

The plot of this show is when the turtles find themselves going up against a new foe they find there very brotherhood tested like it's never been tested before. Bow then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured . presented to us in this very show was in all honesty not that bad however at the exact same time tho the plot of this show isn't all that good either as it's a plot that really isn't all that interesting despite it's unique setup which does allow for some rather unique plots to be told and yet this show doesn't take full advantage of that idea as instead it just gives something that really does feel like it's being stretched out and instead feels like alot like something that would have been better of as the plot of a two part episode and not the plot to the whole entire show with the plot of this show being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this show is Micah Abbey as Donatello , Shamon Brown Jr. as Michelangelo and Nicolas Cantu as Leonardo. Also starring in this show is Brady Noon as Raphael , Inside Out 2 star Ayo Edebiri as April O'Neil , The Spectacular Spider-Man and The Brady Bunch Movie star Alanna Ubach as Bishop , Pete Davidson as Rod , Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Pigeon Pete , Carlin James as Hun , Jamila Velasquez as Angel and Fred Tatasciore as Splinter.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that;s actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured/ presented to us in this very show was in all honesty not that bad. Which given that alot of this shows actors are reprising their roles from the movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem it's not really surprising that they would turn in a good performance in this show but at the same time tho there acting still isn't that good and is only slightly better then the acting that we go from them in the movie with alot of the shows best acting oddly enough coming from this shows new cast members alot of whom are either some really good actors in there own right or some really good voice actors as well and would there for no how to turn in a good performance with the acting that;s in this shoe not really being helped by this shows scripts as the scripts for this episode are just so bad as they give absolutely none of this shows cast absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does hurt the overall quality of the acting that's in this very show.

Doing the animation for this show is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Titmouse Canada Animation. Now the interms of what I personally thought  felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this show was in all honesty not that bad but at the exact same time the animation that's in this show wasn't all that good either as it was very choppy with this shows animation taking on style that's meant to remind people of a comic book which given the origins of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles does somewhat make sense but at the same time tho it's not something that's all that appealing to look at as what might work in a comic book might not work in any form of media  with this shows animation being a prime example of that as while yes the characters do have some really nice looking movements to them the show is also not that to look at either at with the shows animation not really helping that as the comic book style that this show is trying to emulate isn't something that works in the confides of this show as it just looks ugly.

For some reason the makers of this show thought it was a good idea to keep the turtles apart from each other for the shows first six episodes. With them only reuniting halfway through the sixth episodes which is something that just doesn't work as the turtles when at there best really work well because of the fact that there bouncing off of each each other and yet with this show there robbed of the chance of doing that because of the fact that they spend so much time apart from one another and while yes they do explain why the turtles aren't with each other in a way that really does make sense and it is something that does work for this version of the turtles it is something that still doesn't work for this version of the characters as we haven't had alot of time to really get to know to know these characters before this show with even Mutant Mayhem not really giving us a good idea of what the turtles personalities outside of the most basic personality traits and as a result of that really is the fact that having them be apart from each other this early on in this universes timeline really doesn't make that much sense but it is something that would work once we the audience have had the chance to really get to know all of the turtles as characters.

Even tho this show does have alot of the cast from Mutant Mayhem coming back to reprise there roles for some strange reason they chose to recast Splinter. With him in this show only speaking in vermin in order to please Scumbug which just serves as a cheap and lazy way to explain why they didn't get Jackie Chan back to play him and really nothing more then that as within these first six episodes Splinter only appears twice and doesn't play a role in the main plot which makes his inclusion come across as being pointless something that would have been fixed if the makers of this actually gave a damn about the turtles franchise as they even have Donatello actually say in the first episode of this show that he's not the IT guy this is despite the fact that the original shows opening lyrics state quite clearly that he does machines and while yes this is does play a part in the characters personal character arc for these first six episodes it's also something that shows that the current producers of the franchise don't really know the characters all that well either as Splinter even going by there own rules would try anything to get the boys to stay in with him due to the fact that he doesn't trust humans all that much something which was a plot point in Mutant Mayhem.

As this post is being based off of the first six episodes of this twelve episode series these first six episodes not only wrap up the plot but also start another one by the end of episode six. Which makes the fact that this show is twelve episodes long come across as it was meant to be released in to six episode releases but for some reason Paramount decided to release them both at the exact same time which is pointless as you then basically have two season worth of storylines to sit through when it would worked out much better if they released the first six episodes in one go ad then at a later date release the remaining six episodes with this not really being helped by the fact that even tho they redeem Bishop during episode six by having her help the turtles to defeat her own evil robots for some strange reason by the end of the episode they have her then turn evil again which even from a character point of view really doesn't make sense as her whole reason for hating the turtles was because of the fact that she believes that they stopped her from helping humanity due to them destroying her life's work thanks to the events of Mutant Mayhem which doesn't make her an interesting villain as it's just a very weak backstory with her becoming evil again by the end of episode six not really being helped by the fact that even the turtles themselves say to her that they love humanity and are trying to protect it as a result of that is the fact that her turning evil again just doesn't work on any level.

Now then this show has / had an exact grand total running tome of exactly no longer then twenty three minuets. Which is a the perfect running time for these episodes to have as these episodes really don't have alot there interms of plot to really cover anything longer then that as the plot of these six episodes is perfect for six episodes and no more then that with the first four episodes showing us the turtles on there own and episode five giving us Bishop's backstory with the turtles finally meeting back up during the shows sixth episode and yet even with a six episode count in order to tell it's story the show really doesn't take it's time to give us the audience a reason to care for it's characters something that it could have done given the fact that it has alot of episodes in order to tell it 's story with the show instead just rushing along to it's next plot point which might be because of each episodes running time but even so to make a story like this one we the audience should be given a reason to want to care for all of these characters ad while this might as well result in a bunch of filler scenes they would still give the characters some much needed character development as well but I will admit that this show really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is an actin show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us un this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that;s actually featured / presented to us in this very show was in all honesty really good. With the action in this show being the mist creative part of this show as we get to see the turtles have fights in locations that we haven;t seen them have fights in before now and seeing them really find creative ways to take down all four the robots that are attacking them all of which feel true to there characters and all of which do work well for there respective episodes as well but the best action scenes in these first six episodes is the final fight in episode six as we get to see the turtles working together as a team with all of the alleys and foes that they've made during these first six episodes which does create a really and exciting action scene with that action and that episode as whole really feeling like that it should have been the final action scene and the final episode of this show as whole in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

Overall these first six episodes really weren't that bad but at the same time there also episodes that could have been alot better if alot more thought and care was put into this Mutant Mayhem universe with this show being a decent show that really could have been alot more better then what it actually was in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very show in this very post and as this is only my first impressions of the show as a whole there won't be a rating however if enough people want it then I will consider doing a review of the following six episodes.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from these very episodes that I used in this very review being the really great Google Images simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from these very episodes and are really of course on Google Images are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

House Of The Dragon "The Queen Who Ever Was" SPOILER FILLED Review

 

Another series of this fantastic has just aired with this episode also marking the end of the shows second season. With this whole season of Houser Of The Dragon being on par with the first season in alot of better but also being worse then the first season in other places and better then the first season places as well and with season 3 already confirmed to be in development it's safe to say that this show isn't going away any time soon and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review of the episode that already has alot of audiences unhappy with the episode in question being called simply just "The Queen Who Ever Was" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is with the war looming Queen Alicent must choose between pursing piece or going to war. N ow then  interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us n this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good with the plot of this episode doing a good job of setting up the threat for season three but at the same time tho this episodes plot doesn't do a good job of paying off alot of the plot lines that were set up in this series either which does go along way to making this episode feel like it was meant to be placed earlier on in the series running order as it doesn't really add anything to the plot of this series but at the same time from a plot point of view it was interesting to see the character question alot of their actions as that's something that really hasn't been seen before now in this show with the plot of this episode also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this episode is Matt Smith as Prince Daemon Targaryen and Emma D'Arcy as Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen. Also starring in this episode is Olivia Cooke as Queen Alicent Hightower , Rhys Ifans as Ser Otto Hightower , Steve Toussaint as Lord Corlys Velaryon , Fabien Frankel as Ser Criston Cole , Matthew Needham as Lord Larys Strong , Sonoya Mizuno as Mysaria , Tom Glynn-Carney as King Aegon II Targaryen , Ewan Mitchell as Prince Aemond Targaryen , Phia Saban as Queen Helaena Targaryen , Harry Collett as Prince Jacaerys Velaryon , Bethany Antonia as Lady Baela Targaryen , Phoebe Campbell as Lady Rhaena Targaryen , Jefferson Hall as Ser Tyland Lannister / Lord Jason Lannister , Freddie Fox as Ser Gwayne Hightower , Gayle Rankin as Alys Rivers , Kurt Egyiawan as Grand Maester Orwyle , Abubakar Salim as Alyn Of Hull , Clinton Liberty as Addam Of Hull , Kieran Bew as Hugh , Tom Bennett as Ulf , Simon Russell Beale as Ser Simon Strong , Paul Kennedy as Lord Jasper Wylde , Phil Daniels as Maester Gerardys , Max Wrottesley as Ser Lorent Marbrand , Jamie Kenna as Ser Alfred Broome , Vincent Regan as Ser Rickard Thorne , Antonio Magro as Lord Petyr Piper , Abigail Thorn as Admiral Sharako Lohar , Daniel Fathers as Lord Humfrey Lefford , Joshua Ben-Tovim as Brynden Rivers and Eddie Eyre as Ser Axell Bulwer.

Now then inter of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. Which is something that's really nothing that's all that new not only for this show but for this franchise as a whole as even in this franchises more lesser episodes there was always some really good acting in them with the actors in this episode really delivering some truly wonderful performances with Matt Smith as per-always hitting it right out of the park in this episode like he has also done in the rest of this season as well with the same also being true for both Emma D'Arcy as Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen and Olivia Cooke as Queen Alicent Hightower both of whom really do deliver some truly wonderful performances in this episode with the acting in this episode really being helped by the fact that the script for this episode was just so good that all this episodes really have to do is just say the lines as they were written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very episode.

Doing the CGI for this episode is PixStone Images , MPC Episodic , Outpost VFX , Pixomondo and Red Visual Effects. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual CGI that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good and was easily alot better then alot of the CGI that we got on some scenes in this very season as this season did have some very dodgy looking CGI at times which did make sense but at the same time tho this episodes CGI was all really top notch with the episode even making great use of effects that you might not realise are CGI as there just blended in that well with what was shot on the day of filming with the dragons also looking really good with them having some really good lighting to them and while the dragons aren't really seen that much in this episode whenever we do see them they do look really good with this episode being a good example of how to use CGI as CGI is only used to do things that couldn't have been done on the day of filming.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!

In what a rather surprising move is the fact that we get a surprise cameo from Daenerys Targaryen however we don't get to see her face. AS such it's not Emilia Clarke reprising her role it's instead some unknown actress playing the role for a few seconds which does lesson the impact as she was a major character on Game Of Thrones and yet we barely get to see her on screen and heck she doesn't say anything she just appears with her three baby dragons from behind and that's really it which is a waste of the visions idea that they'd been using all throughout this season alot of which did bring back previous actors from the show and yet for some strange reason when it came to Daenerys Targaryen a character who goes on to play an important role in the Targaryen history she just gets a few seconds of screen time while this doesn't do a disservice to her character as season 8 of Game Of Thrones already did that it just makes her appearance in the episode feel pointless even more so when you take into account that the makers of this show could have used her vision to explain to Daemon that there's a fifty fifty chance that he might end up going mad.

As is tradition with this show there was a leak for this episode in particular as a few days before the episode premiered. At the very least thirty minuets of the episode was leaked onto Tiktok with there being fourteen videos in total while it's hard to say what scenes ended up being leaked because of it the very fact that this show had it's smallest leak ever is still something to talk about as this show usually has several episodes leaked and yet to only have thirty minuets of the shows finale episode leak out a few days ahead of time whist it is still yes a really bad thing it is still a sign that HBO and Warner Bros really have improved there cyber security as back in Game Of Thrones season six good as well every episode of that show got leaked days ahead of there premiere and that's most likely the worst leak that this show has ever had as all of those episodes were finished episodes and even this show had at the very least it's very first episode leaked a few days to a week before it's primer all of which makes you wonder why it's taken this long for them to improve there security as this is something that should have been improved after the leak in Game Of Thrones season 6.  

This is an episode that despite being a really solid episode doesn't really feel like that it's a season finale. With it instead feeling like that it was an episode that was originally meant to air at some point before the final episode of this series as the episode doesn't really pay off anything that it sets up as they don't really explain why Daemon is getting these visions but that's something that could very easily be chalked up to him getting the Targaryen madness but it is still something that would have been better if it was explained or at least hinted at being a thing and they don't even explain why the King is moving to a different castle with it being something that just comes out of nowhere but to give this film some credit it does do a solid job of setting up the next season of the show but at the same time this episode should have been more focused on paying off what it already set up as the plot line between Daemon and Rhaenyra gets resolved in a way that doesn't really feel satisfactory as they only get one scene together and that's really it and because of that the resolution really comes across as being rushed and doesn't really feel all that earned.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and nine minuets and six seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstandard running time for a season finale for this show to have and to this episodes credit it really does have more then enough there interms of plot to really cover that large amount of running time but at the same time because of the fact that the episode is alot more focused on setting up things for the next season it leaves very little room for the episode to wrap up it's own storylines and whist yes it is important for them to set up some future storylines those shouldn't be done at the expanse of wrapping up the current storylines either and as a result of that is the fact that this episode really could have done with being just a few minuets longer just order to wrap everything up in a way that feels satisfactory to the season and for those that watched the show on a week to week basis as well but I will admit that this episode really does have soe really good pacing to it tho.

So now the this as this an action show that means that I gave to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show and well then in all honesty I in al honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show was in all honesty really good. As while this episode didn't have any action sequences in it the action scenes in the rest of this season were really top notch with the best action in this whole entire season coming from episode four "The Red Dragon And The Gold" where we are treated to this wonderfully brutal battle scene that is just so cool to look at as well as it really gives the audience a chance to see just how much of a threat that the dragons really are ad how having a dragon on your side really can help to turn the tide in any battle with it being helped by the fact that we get to see a dragon basically being choked to death by another dragon which also results in the death of Rhaenys which is both beautiful and tragic and is the perfect death for her character to have in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

Overall while this season was a huge improvement on season 1 in some respects it was also a weaker season in other respects as well as at the very least with season 1 it felt like a complete season with a beginning , middle and end where as this one doesn't even have that going for it in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and such that really does mean that this mean that this very episode really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 where as season 2 as whole earns itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all pf the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Tenor , the official Game Of Thrones fandom wiki page , IMP Awards . Com and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very review being the really great the official Game Of Thrones fandom wiki page simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode and are really of course on the official Game Of Thrones fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Batman: Caped Crusader SPOILER FILLED Review

It's safe to say that when it was first announced that when one of the masterminds behind Batman: The Animated Series was returning to work on another animated series for The Dark Knight that alot of people were really excited. Even more so when it turns out that this show was intended to be the spiritual successor to Batman: The Animated Series and well the new show is finally here and you all just knew that I had to check this show out the very first chance that I got and so then join me as I give you my spoiler filled review of the show that sees Batman take on foes in the nineteen forties with the show in question being called simply just "Batman: Caped Crusader" enjoy.

The plot of this show is when Batman makes a mistake during one of his cases a chain reaction happens all throughout the underworld of Gotham City one that will see batman pushed to his very limits. Now then interms of what I personally thought  felt about thew actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I inn all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show was in all honesty not that bad as it is a plot that does allow for a more serialized story but at the same time also act as an anthology series as well with reach episode only being very loosely connected to one another and still have certain story elements to pass over over from one episode to another something which does make this show standout from alot of the other Batman animated TV shows out there and it's something that does work in the context of this show asl well with the plot of this show also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this show is Hamish Linklater as Bruce Wayne / Batman , Diedrich Bader as Harvey Dent and Krystal Joy Brown as Barbara Gordon. Also starring in this show is Jamie Chung as Harleen Quinzel / Harley Quinn , Minnie Driver as Oswalda Cobblepot / The Penguin , Christina Ricci as Selina Kyle / Catwoman , Eric Morgan Stuart as James Gordon , Jason Watkins as Alfred Pennyworth , Dan Donohue as Basil Karlo / Clayface , Tom Kenny as Joseph Rigger / Firebug , Toby Stephens as James Craddock / Gentleman Ghost , Mckenna Grace as Natalia Knight / Nocturna , Reid Scott as Onomatopoeia , Michelle C. Bonilla as Renée Montoya , Bumper Robinson as Lucius Fox , Gary Anthony Williams as Arnold Flass and Iggy , Haley Joel Osment as Anton Knight , John DiMaggio as Harvey Bullock , Jerry and Wilford Lee and Cedric Yarbrough as Rupert Thorne.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show was in all honesty not that bad. With all of the actors that you expect a good performance from really delivering on the acting side of things but at the same time the acting from certain actors like Jamie Chung and Jason Watkins to name but a few not really being that good not that there bad on there own right because there not but when you have them acting against other actors that we know can really turn in a good performance there performance comes of as being the weaker of the performances with the acting that's in this show really being helped by the script for this show show which is just so good that all this shows cast have to do is just say the lines as they are written as good performance will come out them naturally which is something that really does help the overall quality of the acting that's in this very show.

Doing the animation for this show is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Studio IAM and Studio Grida. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show was in all honesty really good with the show having some really good looking 2D animation that does look like that it came right out of the nineteen forties but at the same time this show does make more use of 3D CGI that does stand out a mile as it's something that does look really bad and it's something that Batman: The Animation Series never did as they knew that it really would clash with ere art style and it's same thing here as having 3D CGI even if it's just used for backgrounds does standout a mile ad it's something that really does take you out of any given episode of the show and while the shows 2D animation does indeed look really good with all of the characters having really some decent designs that some people might disagree with and other may like the character designs the characters do also have some really nice fluid movements to them as well.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

Believe it or not this show was subject to two very minor controversies before it premiered the first one of which was the fact that they changed Harley Quinn to an Indian American and the second of which was the fact that the show features a gender swapped version of The Penguin. Well after watching all ten episodes those issues aren't an issue as both characters are handled really well and while yes Oswalda Cobblepot / The Penguin is the better of the two villains simply because of the fact that she's the more fun villain this new version of Harley Quinn is quite creepy with there being  role reversal in Harley's personality as her super villain self is usually portrayed as being more cartoony and funny with her civilian self being the more serious of the two where as with this is show it's the opposite that's true and while there will always be a soft side for the original Harley Quinn this new version of the character does come across as being quite creepy at times and while she only appears in full on Harley Quinn costume for one episode the character does appear in a first few episodes which made her fall in episode five all the more dramatic.

One of the very things that this show does get wrong is the relationship between Bruce Wayne and Alfred. As Alfred and Bruce should always be characters who are close to each other as afterall Alfred was the one who raised Bruce up after the death of his parents and yet in this show Bruce acts really cold to Alfred even just calling him Pennyworth all the time which is something that the character wouldn't do as he views Alfred as being his father figure and the one person that he really trusts the most in Gotham and yet in this show he basically treats him as if he's stranger even referring to him as the help in one episode which is something that just doesn't sit right as it's not in his character to do so this is something that wouldn't be an issue if Bruce had a story arc where he learns to be closer to Alfred over the course of these first ten episodes but he doesn't and as a result of that is the fact that we get a relationship that is fundamentally broken when in not only Batman: The Animated Series but in alot of other Batman media it wasn't broken as all you have to is use some logic and that's really all there is to it and while yes Bruce does finally call him Alfred at the end of the shows tenth episode by then it's something that's to little to late and it's nothing really something that feels earned and more like something that the makers of the show felt like that had to do.

The main storyline in this first batch of episodes revolves around Harvey Dent's descent into madness eventually ending up with him becoming Two-Face at the end of the show's eighth episode. While this plot line was done alot better in Batman: The Animated Series as the writing in that show was alot better then the writing that's in this show it is still something that's done really well and it is something that shows that the makers of this show really do fully understand these characters and this world even on the most basic of levels and because of that is the fact that even tho his storyline in this first batch of episodes isn't given alot of focus as it is something that really only appears in a handful episodes and even then acts more as a B plot to the episode it is still a storyline that's rather effective and works really well but it is something that should have been given alot more of s focus instead of it just being the B plot to most episodes which really is a bit of an issue considering the fact that his storyline forms the basis of the shows final three episodes and yet because of how little care and attention that's it's gotten it feels really more of an after thought.

Now then this first batch of episodes has / had an exact grand total running time of no longer then twenty seven minuets. With each episode having a running time of roughly anywhere between twenty four to twenty six minuets of running time which is something that really does work well for this first batch of episodes as the show doesn't really have alot of there interms of plot and while they do tease a big villain for season two this first batch of episodes spends alot of it's running time in giving us information about the characters ad about this new version of Gotham City and even in setting up things that don't pay off until the shows final few episodes but because you don' really notice them as there done in a way that feels natural and organic you don't really pay attention to them which is something that does work well enough in this shows favor but at the same time tho alot of the running time could have been spent on developing the relationship between Bruce and Alfred as that is something that is key to the Batman character and yet because there's no time dedicated to there relationship it doesn't feel earned when Bruce does finally call him Alfred at the end of the shows tenth episode but I will admit that all of these episodes really do have some really good pacing to them tho.

So now then as this is ah action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show was in all honesty not that bad. As it is something that does place into the whole nineteen forties aspect of the show but at the same time then action that's in this shoe isn't as good as it really could have been either with alot of it just coming across as being rather dull and boring alot of the time and yet when the action does get intense and exciting it's more often then not the best action of the whole entire show with the best example of this being the action at the end of the episode as it's Batman taking on The Penguin and her goons on top of a cruise ship with The Penguin trying to launch this missile at the Gotham City Police Department which is a simple thing but it's effective as it ends tension and it adds stakes to the scene instead of just being an action just for the sake of there being an action scene in the episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

Overall this is a show that while it isn't as good as Batman: The Animated Series was it is still a really good show and one that has all of the potential there to be a really good show if the show can stick the landing whenever it's second batch of episodes does eventually end up being released in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very show in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very show really does earn itself a gran old score of exactly an 8 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all pf the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all pf the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Batman: Caped Crusader fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very batch of episodes that I used in this very review being the really great the official Batman: Caped Crusader fandom wiki page simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very batch of episodes and are really of course on the official Batman: Caped Crusader fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Bottom: Smells Review

Britain is home to many comedies many of which get butchered when there remade in America however there is one comedy that the Americans will never dare to touch. Due to the rather adult nature of the show with this show being more adult and more extreme then South Park and more violent then a Tom And Jerry cartoon and it's the first episode of that very show that i'm about to review for you all today and so then join me as I review the episode that introduced the world to the worlds most violent flatmates with the episode n question being called simply just "Smells" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is fed up with noy having girlfriends flatmates Richie and Eddie find out about a spray to help them attract woman. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad as it was a rather simple plot which is kind of the norm not only for this show but for all sitcoms in general and to this episodes credit it doesn't really need a decent plot to get viewers interested as in this case having a simple plot means that the episode can have alot more jokes and world play in it something that just wouldn't be possible if the plot of the episode was a super deep plot ad by having an plot that's rather simple and rather easy to follow along with as well it allows the shows main characters to just be there anarchic selfs as well with the plot of this episode also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this episode is the episodes co-writer and the shows co-creator Rik Mayall as Richard "Richie" Richard. Also starring in this episode is the episodes co-writer and the shows co-creator Adrian Edmondson as Edward "Eddie" Elizabeth Hitler , Lee Cornes as Richard Head , Clive Mantle as Angry Man , Harriett Thorpe as Angry Man's Wife , Cindy Shelley as Kate , Carla Mendocina as Jenny and Kevin McNally as The Shop Manager.

Now then interms of what I personally thought /felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. As alot of this episodes actors do indeed turn in some really good performances which couldn't have been easy as this was the first episode filmed for the series proper and as a result of that is the fact that the series leads wouldn't have been able to have gotten a good handle on there characters just yet and yet they still manage to turn in a good performance in this episode with the same thing also being true for all of the episode guest cast as well as all of the episodes cast members do manage to turn a good performance with the acting in this episode really being helped by the fact that the script for this episode is just so good that all this episodes actors really have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very episode.

One of the things that makes this episodes from alot of other first episodes out there is the fact that it really doesn't tell you all that much about the main characters. As you can tell everything about the characters not only by how they act to each other but also by how badly kept that there flat is as there flat is pretty much a health hazard just waiting to happening which tells us the audience that they are slobs and don't typically care about how things are kept and heck even Richie himself admits to only owning one pair of underwear and that's it which yes is a funny idea but at the same time it also tells us that he doesn't care about his own hygiene as well and you can tell that even tho that even tho they can get really violent with each other both Eddie and Richie do care about each other even if they wouldn't admit it to each other which does make there relationship seem sweet and caring as they have each other to keep each other company even tho they can barely stand to be around each other at the best of times and while Richie is a slob and loser Eddie is constantly drunk with him starting one drink mere minuets after finishing another with him barely being sober. 

To be frank this episode and this show is very adult and is NOT for the easily offended as there are things even in this episode that will offend some people. Which is something that's apart of the anti-comedy nature of this show as comedy is meant to push boundaries between what is and isn't acceptable and what is isn't in good taste and while yes there are lot of things that are in this very episode that could be seen as being in bad taste from certain people other people will see those exact same things and see them as being in good taste and this is something that the shows writers and creators Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall did really well as alot of the shows that they worked on pushed the boundaries of good taste in comedy and as a result of that is that none of there shows this one included wouldn't be made today because everybody is so easily offended by anyone and heck there's a good chance that someone will be offended by this review as that's how easily offended people are today with this episode having alot of mature things in it so much so that i've had to edit the name of a character , what kind of shop Kevin McNally's character is a manager of and one of the images just to make sure then this review can get seen by people as that's just how adult and how mature this episode and this show really is and it's all of those things that means that this episode wouldn't be made today due to how adult and mature that this episode and it's content are.

It's not hard to see why this show became a hit show that managed to spawn three series , five stage shows and a feature length film. Since even in this episode alone you can see that it has all of the markings of being a really good show as it has characters that your not meant to like as Richie and Eddie aren't likable characters yet over the course of the show you do grow to like these characters and it has some rather simple plot lines and while alot of the plots lines are still relevant today like the plot of this episode for example alot of them do come across as being dated but for this episode we do get alot of great moments with these characters all of which are more then enough to make you wince , cry and laugh out loud as this show has at the very least one laugh out loud moment per episode with this one really having several per scene and heck even the very idea of the episode is one that alot of people might like as it happened to them this episode really isn't for anyone as even the opening joke might offend some people and yet it's that opening scene that really does let you know right away what kind of show that this show really is.

Even tho this episode does have alot of positive thing it does have some negative things as well like the fact that the main plot of the episode doesn't come to a natural conclusion it just ends with no resolution to it. Which is something that is typical for British sitcoms as alot of them just end instead of having a beginning , a middle and an end but even so this is show that's none for being rebellious and fordoing things that other comedies just wouldn't do and yet by not having a conclusion to it's story it's doing the exact thing that other shows are doing thus it's not rebelling against them rather it's just copying and pasting what there doing only this show has adult jokes in it and that's really it and while the main characters of this show are meant to be unlikable characters this is something that could also be seen as a bad thing as the episode doesn't really leave us with any likable characters and as a result of that i the fact that we the audience have no characters that we can route for other then the two characters that we've seen aren't that good people and that's really it.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty nine minuets and twenty six seconds. Which is a solid running time for this episode to have but at the same time this episode really didn't need to be as along as it was as this episode really doesn't have alot there interms of plot with the episode having alot of scenes very early that while they do indeed serve the purpose of setting up Richie and Eddie as characters they add nothing to the overall plot of the episode which does make it hard for them to cut those scenes as while they do feel like filler scenes there also scenes that tell us who these characters are as people and would thus be needed in the long run if anything the only way to fix this episode would be to not fix it as this episode is as good as it's ever going to get and as a result of that is that you either except it and except the episode as it is or you just go back to the development stage and start over but I will admit that this episode really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. With alot of this episodes jokes being really painfully funny with this episode and this show making great use of the fact that both characters really over do it with the physical violence all of which is painfully funny in this episode as even tho it's not as extreme as it would get in future episodes it is still some pretty extreme violence but that's not the only type of joke that we get in this episode as we do get alot of self deprecating humor as well which can be very hit and miss and we also get alot of straight forward jokes as well with all of those jokes in this episode being some really funny jokes and alot of which are the types of jokes that you wouldn't expect to see in comedies these days as alot of them are some jokes that would push the boundaries as bit with the same thing also being said for the violence that's in this episode as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this episode is a really funny episode but like alot of the episodes of this show it's not one that's for the easily offended but if your not one of those people then you really should look this show up and watch it as this episode really is just that good and it's something that you won't regret doing either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very episode really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official The Bottom fandom wiki page , Wikipedia and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very review being the really great Google Images simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode and are really of course on Google Images are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings In Russian "Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings In Russian" And "So Much For Childhood Friends" Review

There are some anime that are easy to an intro for as there's so much to say about them and then there's this anime where it's hard just trying to do an intro for it. As there's really nothing in this anime's first two episodes that really stand out apart from the fact that the main female character not only isn't all that likable but also speak Russian from time and so then join me as I review the first two episodes of the show that has an episode that's also the name of the show with the episodes in question being called simply just "Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings In Russian" and "So Much For Childhood Friends" enjoy.

The plot of these first two episodes it the first thing that's wrong with both of these episodes as neither have any kind of pot whatsoever. While yes granted the second episodes does have somewhat of a loose plot with the characters going clothes shopping that's really it and even then that very loose plot isn't enough to sustain an entire twenty two minuet episode and as a result of that is the fact that while episode two does come of slightly better just on the mere fact that it has a plot episode one has no plot to speak with that episode really being the one that really did need a plot as it had so many things to set up like the characters , the world and the plot of the show and while ti did do all of those things it forgot to do the most important thing and that's have a story in it and as a result of that is the fact that the episode really does feel aimless and rather pointless as well where as with episode two it at least does have sone sort of a plot with the plot also being really entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in y freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in these episodes is Aaron Dismuke as Masachika Kuze and Pokemon star and voice acting legend Sarah Natochenny as Alisa "Alya" Mikhailovna Kujo. Also starring in these episodes is Corey Wilder as Takeshi Maruyama , Joshua Waters as Hikaru Kiyomiya , Jill Harris as Mariya "Masha" Mikhailovna Kujo , The Fruit Of Evolution: Before I Knew It, My Life Had It Made star Reshel Mae as Yuki Suou and Izzi Raine as Sayaka Taniyama.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad. However that's also the problem as the acting that's in these very episodes wasn't all that good either not because of the quality of the voice actors but because of the fact that this shows voice director Shawn Gann really doesn't know how to get a good performance out of his cast and as a result of that is the fact that these episodes actors really do come across as being lost and really unsure of what kind of performance to really give with the acting in these episodes not really being helped by the fact that the scripts for both of these episodes is just so bad as it gives these episodes actors absolutely nothing to work with interms of what it is that there respective characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does hurt the overall quality of the acting that's in these very episodes.

Doing the animation for these episodes is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Doga Kobo. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty not that bad as the character do have some really nice and fluid movements to them but at the same time the backgrounds just look really flat and uninteresting and while the character designs do look good and look like they fit in with the world that this show takes place in they just look like the typical anime designs that you'd expect to see in a slice of life show like this one and while the animation as was said does look good it could have been so much better and while this might be due to budget constraints there really could have been alot more effort put into the animation that's in these episodes.

These two episodes do introduce the mystery of who the young girl is in the episodes flashback scenes which does work. As it seems like the little girl is going to be playing an important part of the show and the shows plot and with that in mind it does make sense that that character would be introduced in the first episode of the show as it lets us the audience know that Masachika does know some Russian which is an important aspect of the shows first episode but at the same time tho the flashback scenes could have been a bit longer as those are some of the best scenes in both episodes as it's something that does add a layer of mystery to the show something which would be missing if those scenes were cut from both episodes and even the animation in those scenes is alot better then the animation in the present day scenes as well which makes it look like that the makers of this show put alot more effort into those flashback scenes and care more about those flashback scenes then they do about the scenes that are set in the present day.

For some strange reason these first two episodes really go out of there way into making Alya a really unlikable character. As all she does is bring down everybody around her for no reason even tho they all like her and while this wouldn't be an issue if she was a side character as then you at the very least have the main character to keep your focus but as she's the main character then it is a huge problem as she's the character that your meant to like and while her being unlikable might be the point as it's stated in episode two that she really doesn't have any friends it's still something that doesn't fix the issue of her being an unlikable character and it's something that makes you wonder why alot of people like her and at the very least try to be friendly to her when she's anything but friendly to them and heck the only likable character in both of these episodes is oddly enough Yuki Suou and even then she has scenes that make her come across as a fairly unlikable character especially in the shows second episode which granted does go along way into making Alya a somewhat more likable character you only get one chance to make a good first impression and sadly episode one didn't make that good of a first impression with Aly coming across as an extremely unlikeable character.

For some reason this series is getting really high scores on MyAnimeList with it so far having a score from them of a 8.12 and being ranked at 477. While this show has only aired a few episodes and as a result of that is the fact that the rating and raking for the show could drop the show has also been getting from romantic comedy fans on MyAnimeList and it's hard to see why as this show isn't that good with it being predictable from a romance point of view as you can tell right away who is going to end up with and what will be the main third act break up as they just straight up tell you what that will be as it turns out that Masachika can speak some Russian something that his love interest Alya doesn't know and speaks some sentences in Russian when she wants to speak her true feeling s which you just know is going to cause a rift between them and cause them to hate each other around episode ten as Masachika doesn't tell Alya that he can understand everything that she's saying which makes it painfully obvious that this is a  basically a lier revealed type of story as well as being a romantic comedy show as well.

Now then episode one of this show has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty four minuets and forty seconds and episode two has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty four minuets and forty seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for this show and while both episodes really don't have alot there interms of plot to really over that amount of running time they so easily could have done if episode one actually had a plot and if episode two focused and expanded upon it's shopping plot instead of just starting that plot when the episode is about half way done as there is alot of potential in both of these episodes for both of these episodes to be some really fun episodes both of which are let down due to the fact that both episodes really don't take full advantage of there respective running time as neither episode develops there characters nor gives us the audience the chance to get to know these characters either which does make it hard for us to care for those characters as the episodes don't take the time to give to give us a reason a to care for any of its characters but I will admit that both of these episodes really do have some really good pacing to them tho.

So now then as this is comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty i in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all not that bad. Even tho alot of the jokes in both of these episodes was basically the kind of jokes that you would find in shows like High School DXD and that's really it which us fine if you like those jokes where a girl beats up a the main male character just for looking at her underwear but at the same time when that's the only joke in both of these episodes it is something that gets old fast and it makes you wonder where the rest of the jokes from these first two episodes are as there's nothing that's all that funny in both of these episodes and while yes there are a few different joke in these episodes especially in the first episode they are very few and far between but when the episode does indeed tell a different joke it can be a good joke not because it's something that's genuinely funny but rather it's because it's something that's totally different from the types of jokes that we had been getting up until that point which makes you wonder why these episodes didn't have alot of different jokes as that's when both of these episodes are at there absolutely best in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Overall while both of these episodes do have potential and whole this show does have some really good potential to be a really good show neither one of these first two episodes do the show justice and while the shows second episode is a little bit purely because of the fact that it has somewhat of a plot it's still not that good of an episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in these very episodes in this very review and as such that means that both of these episodes really do earn themselves a combined grand old total score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally sued in this very review from the official Roshidere fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from these very episodes that I used in this very review being the really great the official Roshidere fandom wiki page simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from these very episodes and are really of course on the official Roshidere fandom wiki page are also really all fairly high in quality and really as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.
