I wasn't very awake last week, so I didn't watch much. Rewatching some more HPI, mostly. My watchalong is done with Bridgerton S3 (loved it more than on my first watch, tbh) and we'll tackle HPI season 1 next! \o/

I watched the new High Potential ep, and my fave character again was the police chief, Selena Soto. I had not expected that. The leads are still leaving me cold. I did enjoy Morgan comforting her son about both of them being neurodivergent. That was beautiful.

I watched the 'new'(ish) Wallace and Gromit movie, Murder Most Fowl, and enjoyed it. It would have been even better if there'd been more Feathers. And if Wallace had treated Gromit a bit better. I know it's always the same old shtick, but it wears so thin after three movies, and this one really lingered on the humiliation in a way that made me grit my teeth. At least he apologized at the end. I liked the little gnome robots (although I would have liked Feathers more), and the young police officer, and the plot was fun and engaging. The fact that Wallace equipped the gnomes with different core values was hilarious to me, just like Doofenschmirtz putting a self-destruct button on all his -inators.

I made an icon of it, too: (free for the taking, enjoy)


Nothing else new.

Feathers, the ultimate British villain :D

I always feel so bad for Gromit. I know Wallace is supposed to be the lovable idiot, but I feel like they could shake it up a bit when it comes to how he treats Gromit. He could be less of an idiot about that...

I had the same reaction to Wallace and Gromit - Murder Most Fowl. Wallace got on my nerves.
