I'll notice in HOPR that when Linkara likes a scene or something, he'll simply play it and let it speak for itself, rather than tear it apart if it's bad. It's more effective that way to the audience who may not know the series inside-and-out like us, and even for the people who know, rewatching it will be it's own reward.

Usually teh point of critically deconstructing flaws in a show is to spare us the actual badness and simply deliver the information without the unlikable bit in question. With a series that's better, experiencing it is far more effective than him deconstructing what it's plainly apparent.

Plus, dude, you realise that was four parts, right? There was more recapping because this show had way less filler, but the actual installment was longer as a result.

I'm viewing it incorrectly, then, but I don't know how to properly look at it. He approaches it like a review, pointing out the positives and negatives with hints of his opinion, but then it turns into a summary of the series proper, idling on about the plot.

And I feel the opposite. Deconstructing what makes a particular scene or line delivery good is far more effective than being told something is good, showing the scene in question, and simply moving on, without explaining what in particular enhanced the scene. Why is this decent actor suddenly stunning in this scene? Why this line delivery is stronger than normal.

He had other things he wants to do, outside of his other shows and workload. For a series you're not paying for or trading anything for, you're acting extremely entitled to a standard.

Having watched the installement, it wasn't bad at all. I quite liked it, especially the very end bit about what's really "mature" which I wish everyone would consider for themselves.

Fair enough.
