Okay, I'm definitely going to make another video at some point. Partway through making this one, I went back and rewatched a random episode from "the best era of the show (seasons 2 to 3, in my opinion). I watched Canderemy, and I gotta say, I enjoyed it WAY more than the newer episodes!
But please, the 3 loyal readers of this comments section, bear with me: is it just me?
There's a valid chance I don't like the newer episodes as much not because they're WORSE, exactly, but because I didn't grow up with them. Sure, I can argue that Canderemy was way wittier than the newer episodes (and DANG Stacy is awesome), but was it ACTUALLY? Is that just childhood bias getting in the way?
Listen, this revival is gonna be great for any kids who just want more Phineas and Ferb. That's who it's made for anyways. But I think they're trying to target adults who grew up with the show as well (which would include me), and if THAT'S the case, I don't know how to feel. So far at least, this feels like season 4; not bad, but also not great, and you can tell through the cracks that the best Phineas and Ferb ideas have probably already been used.
Most of these thoughts were things I was thinking DURING the process of making this video, which is why you're getting it here in a description rather than in the video itself. I'll watch the other 6 episodes this week (I've heard Meap Me In Saint Louis is disappointing, hopefully that's not true), and I'll definitely get back to ya. These are my first impressions, not a final review. And yes, I did really enjoy the Candace Therapist episode :)
