Let's cut through the bullshit.

My opinion has no value to you. I've given reason after reason why I don't like season 3, don't like Meghan's writing, etc. And you said it yourself, you don't like me for it

But here you are, so my word must mean something.

But it's not what I think. What you want is my 'vote of confidnce'. Even if its just a little "Well it's not as bad as I though."

Sorry, but fact of the matter is, I've seen trailers and clips and synopses and reviews from people I trust.

I don't care who made it. I don't care if Lauren herself likes it. They took a suprising, relatable story of friendship and adventure and over one season turned it it a generic "Every little girl wants to be a princess" girls cartoon.

Then they turned into a dime-a-dozen, teen twig-figure, prom popularity contest with rehashed material.

'I'm glad you enjoyed toy commercals' is the best I can say to you.

I think the issue is he'd need to hear a lot of positive and then only try it pirated at first like I would.

Season 3 really didn't sell Meghan as a great writer or show runner. Her better episodes being when Faust was around to reign in and rewrite or just plain write some scenes.

For example you just know Lauren would have had McCarthy put in more Sombre scenes if Hasbro didn't let her actually take out his origin so that he was just a scary smoke demon thing that was only explained at the very end.

It didn't turn out like that because of the time window they gave McCarthy to make season 3 which EG is a part of and likely the reason so many season 3 episodes have a cruddy or rushed 3rd act.

So it's still a lose/lose set up.

If EG is good because McCarthy focused her time and effort, it was at the cost of season 3 and who knows if the same will be true with season 4 since it has twice the episodes so she has to let some go to focus on others.

If it is bad it shows she can't write with that much pressure and hopes for more than maybe one or two over "usual girl's show par" are slim to none and thus he wouldn't even bother giving that a shot because he got burned twice.


Best to leave it till after he tries a few season 4 eps.
