Spoil Me! The Magicians

The Magicians, S05E13- Fillory And Further

Thank you so much to Jessie for commissioning this, the final episode of The Magicians! I'm honestly really surprised at how satisfying the ending of this series is considering that this wasn't supposed to be the end of the show, and considering how many balls they still had in the air right up until the last second. It's certainly bittersweet because the gang is split up, but there's also a rightness to the fact that there are still quests happening ad infinitum. That just seems like who these people are, you know? Thanks again to all of you who supported me through this whole series, and I hope you enjoyed the ride! Peaches and plums, my friends.

The Magicians, S05E12- The Balls

Thank you very much to Jessie for commissioning this episode! The main takeaway of this episode my utter disbelief that this is the penultimate episode of the series. It's just so incredibly loaded with half-formed ideas that still need a lot of time to percolate and develop, and knowing there's exactly ONE episode left to explain it all is really a tall order. There's also a bunch of musical stuff in this one, which I can take or leave, and a bunch of heist stuff, which I'm totally here for. Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

The Magicians, S06E11- Be The Hyman

Thank you to Jessie for commissioning this episode! Only three more episodes of this series to go, and I have no idea how we're going to wrap up so quickly! This episode is the one where they sorta come to a conclusion I theorized on last episode, in which I suggested maybe using the World Seed to create a new Fillory...or something? What it comes down to is that they want to allw Fillory to be destroyed, and Fen is not okay with it. And meanwhile, I'm having mixed feelings about this season and it seems like I'm really not going to be satisfied by the time this is all over. I guess we will have to wait and see! Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you again soon with a new episode!

The Magicians, S05E10- Purgatory

Thank you very much to Ashley for commissioning this episode! This episode is when we FINALLY get the answer to so many of the questions that I've been asking (and which NOBODY else has been asking, BTW) and it's actually pretty interesting. Turns out that the Takers are the guard dogs of the Underworld, and they've been dragging people away because...I guess they're confused over who is alive and who is dead and deserves to be pulled into Hell? Whatever. We get to see Hades again, and I find him so compelling but ALSO goddamn dude take some fucking responsibility. You fucking BAILED and your shit started to fall apart. This is YOUR fault! WHERE YOU BEEN, bro? Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you again soon with a new episode!

The Magicians, S05E09- Cello Squirrel Daffodils

Thank you Jessie for commissioning this episode! Alright so we're starting to get some answers about who the hell the Dark King is and what his motivations are, but I'm so annoyed that nobody wants to know WHY he brought the Takers with him or what they are. This is key information that could help you defeat both them AND him, you guys! You should be more interested! Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you again soon with a new episode!
