Last time I talked about Fairly Odd Parents I talked about how much the show has gone through seasonal rot. It's not a bad show its just the writing is not as good. It's not as funny, the characters have been flanderized and they keep adding new characters to try and keep the show a float.
I still like Fairly Odd Parents. I really do. It can still pull through and make a good episode. However, the episodes have gotten worse and worse as time has gone on.
I don't know what happened. Maybe it's because the show shouldn't have lasted 10 seasons.
Either way most people agree Poof and Sparkey were bad additions (some may disagree though. I personally haven't seen enough Sparkey episodes for me to make a judgement on him, as for poof he's ok.)
Anyway I was worried when they announced another new character for season 10 of the show. A girl named Chloe who would be shareing fairies with Timmy. I had no idea how this was gonna work out.
Well it's finally premiered and........it was actually pretty good.
What you expected me to hate it. I actually really enjoyed it.
But I'm apparently on the unpopular opinion side of things when it comes to this.
Many people have said this episode in not good and at the time of this writing it has a 3.4/10 on IMDB.
Jesus what was so bad about this episode. I'm sure you all have good reasons to hate it but personally I really liked this episode.
It's not perfect but it was enjoyable.
So far I feel that 2016 is starting out pretty well in terms of animation.
We got StevenBomb 4 which I'll cover later. We got this which I feel was pretty good.
Heck even Family Guy has gotten a pretty good episode with Candy, Quahog Marshmallow and The Simpsons got The Girl Code which was decent.
The first animated movie of the year Norm of The North currently has a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes but I haven't seen it yet.
But my point is it seems 2016 is off to a good start. Now let's see how the rest of the year holds up.
Let's talk about this episode though.
Why do I like it. Well let's get into it shall we
Plot-A new girl comes to school named Chloe. She's little miss perfect in the eyes of Timmy and he
instantly has a dislike of her. So he is obviously upset when he finds out that he has to share his
fairies with her. Why you may ask. Well apparently there's been a decline in the supply of fairy god parents. Fair enough I suppose.
So what was the Good, what was the Bad, and what was the Meh
Good-Where do I begin. I guess I should talk about Chloe first. I actually really like this character. She's spunky, smart, kind and is just pure fun to watch. I really like her. Some people say she's a Mary Sue and I can see why but she was still fun enough to make up for that. At least for me anyway. But she still screws up to. I mean that's the reason she got fairies, she kept screwing up. People also say that it's a stupid reason for her to get fairies but it didn't bother me too much. I can see where people come from when they say that though. I mean everyone would get a fairy if screwing up every now and then was a good reason to get one. I also found this episode pretty funny. Fairly Odd Parents can have some stupid humour in it. It worked in the older seasons mostly but as time went on the jokes just got so stupid they're not funny. There's a line with how stupid you can be while still being enjoyable.
The modern odd parents crosses this line way more than the old odd parents.
And I know some of you may say I'm nostalgia blind and am unwilling to see flaws in the old episodes but keep in mind I'm not that old. A lot of modern episodes aired when I was young, during the time I would start feeling nostalgic about.
Same with modern Spongebob. I hate episodes like Good Neighbors and Driven to Tears even though they aired during the time period I would feel nostalgic about.
Heck there are even a few episodes from seasons 1-3 that I don't like that much.
But back on topic I found this episode pretty funny.
Now something I should bring up is that people think Timmy is being flanderized here. Again I can see why but to me I felt all the things Timmy did were in character. Yeah he's kinda selfish here but he's always been a little selfish, and in the end he learns Chloe isn't that bad and has flaws, and thus learns his lesson.
We can see why it would be so hard to share his fairies with Chloe though and we can sympathize
with him. Shareing some things can be hard. And he doesn't act like a complete douchebag. He
doesn't cross that line into unlikeability.
And it's not like that he doesn't get called out on his actions.
So yeah lots of good here. Lots of good.
Meh/Bad-There are some moments that weren't too good. Some of the jokes fail like sending Timmy to some underground mutated mole civilization or whatever it was. Yeah, not too funny.
So yeah some moments do fall into the Meh category. I also did feel that there were one or two out of character moments. Like that joke I mentioned earlier, Wanda is totally ok with Timmy going there and doesn't do much to help when he's in clear danger. Yeah, that seemed really out of character.
The pacing was also pretty bad. This episode just goes all over the place.
Timmy wishes there was never a Friday then the anti fairies attack. It doesn't add anything to the plot it's just there.
This episodes pacing is just.....odd.
I don't know how to describe it. You just need to see for yourself to truly understand.
Overall-8.5/10
Yeah I really enjoyed this episode. I can see why people hate it though, but gees a 3.4/10 just seems harsh.
So yeah that was the Big Fairy Share Scare. It was fun though please note this is all personal opinion. There's a chance you will hate this episode.
Respect my opinion an I'll respect yours.
Well thank you guys for reading. Next time I'll cover Steven's Birthday Bomb.
And sorry this is late. I've been busy moving and haven't had much time to just chill and write this blog.
I still plan to keep my promise of 2 Animated Critic episodes a month so episode 9 will be out soon.
It's over The Sum of His Parts from Teen Titans.
So I think that covers it.
Thank you guys for watching
Peace.
Hello there Evan
Uh...Hello there. Who are you?
Oh you don't remember me cause I remember you. Seems you've made a nice life for yourself. What, sitting on a computer and talking about little kids shows. How nice.
I feel that was sarcasm. Either way sorry I don't recognize you. What's your name?
That's not what's important here. What is important here is revenge.
Revenge? What? I don't even know who you are, how could I do anything to you that's revenge worthy if I don't even know you.
Ha ha ha, well what you did doesn't matter. It's what I'm gonna do that you should worry about.
Enjoy writing this blog. I can assure you this isn't the last time you'll see me.
Wait a minute. Hey. Ugh, great. I gotta deal with this. Well we'll see how this goes. Am I scared? A bit. Some random guy/girl just got on my blog and threatened me. Yeah I'm gonna be a bit scared.
Well hopefully I can deal with this problem. Until then I'll see you guys later.
Peace.
