Whether it be James' pink undercoat, that breathtaking waterfall or the new varieties of rolling stock (including the new brake vans this series and hopper trucks from the last series), not to mention all the fabulous detailing on new and existing characters, fans have hardly ever had a bad word to say.  I just hope that the new animation team are as kind hearted and passionate about Thomas as you and your team were.

Shame Nitrogen won't be along for the ride but they said no for the good of the show.  So I shall now say: thank you, Greg.  You may have had to animate some of the worst ever episodes for a children's show, let alone Thomas and Friends.  Fans, including me I must admit, were extremely angry that the models were being replaced, but the stunning animation from you and your team have worked wonders and have made such bad episodes watchable.

Ten episodes down, ten to go, and I still believe that Series 16 is the worst ever.  Yes, even worse than S15.  I now have the feeling that the writers, the most important part of the show don't know anything about Thomas' previous legacy, nor do they care...  So it warms my heart to learn that HiT's new production team for Thomas actually know about the Railway Series and care about its legacy.  So all I can say, right now, only halfway through a series, is roll on Series 17!

They REALLY have to do a lot better than what they produced in Bust My Buffers to impress me... It's terrible, and some of the dialogue in it was disgusting...

Peter Sam and the Thin Controller will be in Don't Bother Victor. Should be interesting to see who else appears as well. Not expecting much plot-wise though, it sounds a bit like Sir Handel in Charge

Why do people think Flash Bang Wallop is so good? Great visuals do not necessarily make great episodes!

It's official: so far I prefer Series 15 to Series 16.

To think, Series 16 started off quite promisingly... Now it's going downhill in the same way James did in "The Trouble With Mud"...

You'll see my FULL opinions of each episodes in my review on March 19th.

Well that's 8:45 that I'll never get back (referring to Express Coming Through). It was mediocre, at best. The visuals and music, as usual, being the only real saving Grace.

Just read about week 3's episodes, and there's only one four letter word I can think of to describe my opinions of all of them. It begins with 's', ends with 't' and it isn't 'soot'...

It's official, folks. Simierski was not lying.

Emily's Winter Party Special - Great, now we're being told of a "special" in the titles(!) I'm seriously losing interest in Thomas quite rapidly now (I only really like the model series and the RS). Mr Brenner, I hope to God you can revive the series' writing, otherwise I'll never watch another series of Thomas and Friends, or buy any more of their merchandise, again.

Title sounds... meh. It could be better than it sounds... or worse.

Please don't pester me for the other restored episodes. They will be uploaded in time, and I DO have a life to live. Expect some to be uploaded over the week, as well as Series 16 on my Dailymotion channel next weekend.
