I just love how everyone keeps saying how Magica, now literally de-spelled, is Scrooge’s No. 1 nemesis, much to Glomgold’s anger.

In my opinion, GlomTales succeeded where Timephoon was lacking. It had a good message in the end, but Della's bitter reaction seemed kind of hypocritical and didn't do anything to understand Louie's character. In GlomTales, it ended with Della and Louie finally reaching a compromise; which I feel is more important. If you want to form a relationship with your kids, support them and their interests and help guide them down the best path forward instead of just dismissing them altogether.

I honestly feel Della took it too far , so I like how Louie proved how his schemes could actually do some good rather than them always going wrong.

“Where’s Gyro? I’m supposed to be fighting Gyro?” I love how much both the show and the villains make fun of how pathetic Mark Beaks is sometimes.

I’m surprised Scrooge actually like the Big Rock Candy Mountain adventure. Sure there was treasure but the lazy attitude would be against all his morals and principles. He hates the mermaid hippies in Season 3 because they didn’t work

Great to see you back. A lotta people gave this episode hate for how Della handled the grounding. But honestly, this was the 1st time she took a stricter hand in grounding and she's still leaning to understand the children she was separated from. Both her and Louie learned something out of this

Honestly I hated the fact that Louie was missing out on a once in a lifetime adventure and Della starts acting a bit hypocritical

Give Louie another chance Della. After Timephoon he hasn’t time traveled again in season 3. You should give him another chance to redeem himself.

I think the Comic-Scrooge basically saw it like Glomgold...he mostly hired Donald and the kids because they (had to) work for free (or debt reduction)...and I actually like that the new scrooge has more heart...but he also doesn't share the treasure. Think about it...Donald spent his entire youth treasure hunting...very successful btw...so even if he only was given 10% of it he should be a millionaire too but he is broke as fuck. And before you say: he maybe wasted his money.. we've seen him going on treasure hunts with scrooge after they re-united...and he still seems relatively broke to me. Wait until Loui is old enough to hire a lawyer.

I didn't know what big rock candy mountain was so I figured it was a reference to the comics or Disney parks. I'm surprised

"Life has been really crazy..."

'Technically I’m Scottish as well' is even funnier when when you know he is from South Africa.

Catherine Tate and David Tennant always play off each other so well, but she really got her time to shine here.

Here is the thing with the grounding I see so many people not understand: This is NOT a situation of „Who is right and who is wrong“, because Ducktales did this conflict properly and you can understand BOTH sides. Therefore BOTH are right and BOTH are wrong at the same time just for different aspects hence why this isn’t the question here.

Looking back at this episode with the knowledge that Funzo is actually Phantom Blot, I can't help but think he was absolutely relishing in the sight of his former great nemesis being so miserable while working for him and, more importantly, being completely magic-less.

Funny enough, Glomgold's scheme, in any other series, might have been a lot more successful in spite of its simplicity because most series have a gathering of all the recurring major antagonists as like, one of the scariest and most dangerous episodes the characters have to go through. Because the heroes always thwart the bad guys with a group fighting one or two enemies, so when the villains join forces and can play off each others' strengths or split the heroes off and force them to fight alone or even when it's a group of villains fighting a singular main hero, it's usually one of the hardest hurdles for the heroes to overcome.

While I like this episode as it is, I do have one small thing on my mind that I want to criticize.

When this episode and the last one came out; everyone was blasting on Louie's punishment. While I concede maybe the family in the video calls sometimes rubbed it in some (tho' upon a re-watch it seems like they're not doing it with any actual intention), Louie damn near wrecked Time, Space and destroyed the whole family as Della pointed out. He needed this grounding, and as the next episode shows.... Louie REALLY still had a lot to learn, which does pay off.
