Actually... the script was just stupid really, though like you I felt it held my attention - unlike last weeks borefest. And the direction was nice, wasnt it ( ... )

"We really are Eeyore and Tigger, you and I, B :P"

I'm Tigger, you're Eeyore, the fandom is Rabbit and the show is Pooh Bear, just sitting back, eating hunny and getting it's head stuck in a tree.

"but its not mindless squee - you back it all up with reason."
Well...sometimes it's just mindless squee, but generally I try to at least slightly explain my mixed up thoughts. Then I just turn it back into mindless squee again ;)

I think our biggest difference though remains Arthur.Yeah I think we see the character differently. Obviously for me it can change if there is a badly written episode, but on the whole I actually quite enjoy the naive side of his character. I like that he's so different from the other main characters in that sense, even if it is in a character flaw. Arthur's blind trust doesn't do him any good, he's been betrayed before, but still doesn't learn. If anything it just makes him grow closer to those around him, who are also betraying him ( ... )

I thought it was a good script actually, although some little details were missing, so it wasn't my favourite ever. The direction definitely enhanced it though ( ... )
