A few moments I love in Season 10 (listed in chronological order): 1. Rheneas telling Duncan off for screwing around in Duncan Drops a Clanger (I know this one isn’t often considered one of Season 10’s best, but I personally enjoy it because Duncan was the right choice for this episode and everybody else is in character as well) 2. Gordon forfeiting his record to help Henry in It’s Good to be Gordon 3. Henry’s crash in Big Strong Henry (extra points for the footage not being slowed down for once) 4. Skarloey saving Rheneas from the runaway logs in Wharf and Peace (the only good scene in that episode) 5. Emily and the Special Coaches acknowledging that Gordon finally broke his record 6. Duncan and James’ dynamic in Duncan’s Bluff 7. The poster crash in James the Second Best (if it’s a reference to the Edward with James’ sad face error, I applaud it for that)
@Thomasmemoryscentral4 ай бұрын
Missing Trucks is the rare Rheneas moment of his older strong personality to help others sneaking in. Him volunteering to take Skarloeys trucks just so he can have a rest feels something out of Season 4 almost but him not telling anyone until they’re missing might irk some.

In “Gordon and the Famous Visitor” a.k.a. “Domeless Engines”, we get the following narration: “On the viaduct, they _[Gordon and his driver]_ met the wind. It was a teasing wind that blew suddenly in hard puffs. Gordon thought it wanted to push him off the bridge. ‘No, you don't!’ he said firmly, but the wind had other ideas. It curled around his boiler, crept under his loose dome and lifted it up and away into the valley below.”

I think i have found a possible in universe explanation of Sir Handle’s off screen character shift & Dukes Disappearance: At the end of season 4 when the cameras shifted into standard gauge stories, maybe duke had to be sent off to a Railway Museum due to mechanical Problems, sending the Skr engines into grief of duke being gone, Particularly Peter Sam & Sir Handle. Maybe Sir Handles way of grieving at first was to be extra rude, have more accidents, & generally be uncooperative, to a point sir topham hatt sent him away to work at the slate quarry. Maybe while at the quarry Sir Handle started to question why the others looked up to duke so much compared to himself, & so Sir Handle started to ask around the quarry workers and other engines who visited the quarry. Perhaps Sir Handle learned about why Duke was so respected, & maybe as a part of the grief he started to imitate those aspects people & engines liked about Duke. Over time maybe it stopped being mere imitation & started to be Sir Handle actually learning & Growing as a Character. maybe by the time season 10’s events happened, He’d have had a full character arc, but we as an audience never would’ve known as it all happened off screen. Just something to think about.

How I would write a Rosie Thomas dynamic is Thomas is the one who fumbles his first time and that experience defines his outlook on life, Rosie does the same task with no disasters or trouble with ease but lacks confidence/worth from the experience, Thomas teaches Rosie about confidence/worth. Rosie reminds Thomas of his youthful outlook and to allow himself to live life. Plus I would use her American basis to add some character like with Hank, Rosie gets the job done no matter how mundane it seems like pilot duties/shunting cause Americans(being one myself/and specific working class of that time50-70s) were proud hard workers who loved their careers(unlike today). And Rosie should encapsulate that American railworker spirit. I don't mind her and Thomas having a relationship but its more of how you describe brother/sister variety cause their youthful desposition in the series. Now the closest engine couple I like is Henry/Emily their both mature and care for the other.

At least Sir Handel is made much more friendlier and perhaps given the chance to do good deeds despite his pompous and bad traits to develop him. If he appears throughout Series 5-7 with his large scale model built at the same time as the others then he would've been given the chance to show his inner goodness after one original story of him being arrogant and rude. Don't forget, he respects Duke as his Granpuff back on the Mid Sodor after the events of Bulldog.

I’ve actually got a theory as to how Freddie fits into the continuity: In Grandpuff, it's stated that other engines on the Mid-Sodor railway came and went, and it's more than likely that Freddie was one of those engines. I’m thinking he worked on the Skarloey railway for a good long while and quite possibly was taken to a narrow gauge railway on the mainland before the events of Gallant Old Engine, hence why Skarloey and Rheneas around that time were the only engines working on the Skarloey railway. Then, of course, I believe a good long time working on the Skarloey Railway is what allowed Freddie to know about all of the shortcuts that were shown in his episode.

The Green Controller (Percy being incompetent to know how to control a railway for a day?) 5. Follow that Flour 6. Seeing the Sights (Can't Thomas just ignore Gordon's boasting about being fast?) 7. Wharf & Peace (Why did they make Skarloey weak and cowardly?) 8. Percy & the Funfair (Percy should already know the importance of coal for the railway) 9. Which Way Now? (Rusty should be more patient and cautious) 10. Sticky Toffee Thomas (A childish and very predictable plot of Thomas daydreaming in fancy dress) By the way, I watched like three times Thomas' Tricky Tree to understand why it was good.

Edward Strikes Out should’ve been called Edward and the Runaway Crane and here’s how the episode should’ve been: the episode starts with narrator explaining who Edward is and then it would cut to Edward puffing into Brendam docks to see Gordon and Percy angry and upset. Edward asks them what’s wrong and Gordon tells them that the new crane (Rocky) is very rude and unpleasant and tells him to watch out. Edward heeds Gordon’s warning and then goes to collect his pipe train. When Edward backs downs onto his goods train next to Rocky, Rocky looks down at him and starts making rude remarks towards Edward and tells that he’s old, frail, and useless. Edward knows what Rocky is saying is not true and tells him that he may be old but he’s still quite useful and Rocky then says more rude things to Edward, but Edward ignores him and puffs away when the guard blows his whistle. Later on Henry arrives to collect Rocky and take him to a new location. Rocky says rude things to Henry which obviously makes Henry upset. Henry then pulls Rocky out of the docks and while they’re on Gordon’s hill, the coupling between Henry and Rocky snaps and Rocky becomes a runaway. Rocky races down Gordon’s hill with ever increasing speed. Meanwhile Edward is puffing down the line after finishing delivering the pipes and then a loud HEEELLLP and then Rocky races by Edward and then Edward says ‘oh no, Rocky’s a runaway I must save him’ and then Edward chases after Rocky. It would be a intense runaway and would be able to overtake Rocky and the signalman who change the points so Edward would go onto Rocky’s line and Rocky then slams into Edward and then Edward slams on his breaks and is then horrified to Thomas with Annie and Clarabel on the same line as Edward and Edward puts every once of strength he has against Rocky to save Rocky, Thomas, Annie, and Clarabel. Thankfully the signal man changes the points and Edward and Rocky are diverted into a siding and stops mere inches from the buffers. Everyone cheers for Edward for saving Rocky, Thomas, Annie, and Clarabel from a terrible accident and Rocky then apologizes to Edward for being so rude to him and Edward forgives him. The scene would then cut to another of the narrator saying that Edward and Rocky are now good friends and Rocky now helps clean up accidents and also apologized to the other engines that Rocky was rude too. I genuinely wish that THIS was the official episode instead of what we got.

The only thing I remember from the hit era is that one 'it's thomas' part at the beginning of every episode and the roll call song at the end of every episode.

29:25, Actually there are steam cranes that came move about on they're own. the thing is they are very slow. In an emergency an engine would be much quicker, so that's why Edward had to pull him. I think what he meant though was that Edward would add him to his consist. Also, 28:47. Thomas Theorist, challenge accepted.

Even if Season 10 is atrocious such as character flanderization and terrible episodes, it did still have great episodes such as Duncan’s Bluff and James the Second the latter being my all-time favorite episode from that season. But the worst episode would have to be Edward Strikes Out because it started ditching Edward’s character. Why the first character in the franchise got screwed up? This episode has to be my pick of the worst of the entire HiT Era because of that. We don’t see the old and wise Edward here. Other than that, there are times where Edward is in character. Anyways nice review Luke!

I can predict 2 things about the Season 11: Thomas Theorist will appear (If he appeared twice, three times won’t hurt), The ghost of “Did someone say magic” will appear for Smoke and Mirrors

I quite like Sir Handel in season 10; at least it shows he is capable of character development like all the others. Plus, if the HiT Era writers were really smart (ha! 😅) they would’ve found a way to balance out Sir Handel’s s4 personality with his new s10 one.

In My thoughts: Simon Nicholson He has also written for "Bob the Builder", "Rubbadubbers", "Tracy Beaker", "The Hoobs" and "Postman Pat". He also wrote a book for children, "The Oldmoor Orphans". in 2001 was the written the Only Storyline to David Mitton on Season 6. was writing the script "Big strong henry" on the dialogue was used this scene from Season 2 "Cows" and the American version "Cow on the line" This is one of my favorite stories when i was a kid I hearing on CD audio story Ringo Starr "Cow on the line" And Other Thomas the Tank engine Stories.

I think saying sir handel never had and never will change is a bit over exaggerated because while yes he was always rude and boastful he actually did learn from his mistakes. usually if someone truly can never change they keep on making the same mistakes over and over again, but that’s not the case for sir handel, only once did he purposely derail himself, only once did he fake sick to get out of work and only once did he try to one up george.
@Wildcatt19994 ай бұрын
Honestly, I don't hate the idea of making Sir Handel more mature, and from an in-universe perspective, it would make sense for him to shape-up after working at the Stone Quarry for so long. What I don't like however, is that they made him THE wise old sage of the Narrow Gauge engines, while making Skarloey and Rheneas, the inexperienced children.

10:54, in Thomas’ Frosty Friend, I think in my opinion that this is a pre-Season 11 because of Thomas (but if it’s not, that’s ok, because it’s my own opinion)
