*Slow comes downstairs, looks at the tv & then at me*
Slow: Are you watching Godzilla again?
Me: *amused* No
Slow: Are you watching Mothra again?
Me: *laughing* No!
Slow: what‘re you watching then?
Me: Ultra Q
Me: *starts explaining what that is as Gorgos walks onscreen*

Slow: *amused* Christ! That’s a man in a suit!
Me: you should’ve seen the episode with the giant tortoise!
Slow:
OH MY GOD A GIANT SPIDER EPISODE!!!
There’s a possibility this is going to end up being a live tweet thread of me watching/rewatching the remaining 20 eps if I’m not careful... I will try to abstain, for your sakes. Pretty sure everyone is fed up of me getting excited about this stuff now...
One of the characters just set a cobweb on fire for shiggles... I hope Tarantula eats him 😠
“We’re in this really creepy, supposedly cursed house and 2 of our group are injured... now seems like the perfect time to break out my ocarina! I’ve been working on my Minuet of Forest rendition don’t ya know!”
I kind of want the Tarantula puppet. It’s a surprisingly accurate giant spider...
“If you come across a spider in the dark, please let them be” - turns out I’m not the only person who sees the importance of our arachnid friends!
Ok... this one I have definitely not seen before... and I am both confused and intrigued
Just had a weird moment where the timing on the Halo track @TheSlowPainter was listening to in the kitchen (which I can hear pretty clearly) matched up perfectly with the UQ intro theme and turned it into a surprisingly good remix...
Are they doing “a lady vanishes”? It feels like they’re doing “a lady vanishes”
I am getting some major tonal whiplash from this episode...
Spoilers: they were NOT doing “a lady vanishes”
M1’s arms are really unsettling....
I know they have nothing in common but Balloonga will always be called Balloony in my mind
Finishing Ep 11 while I have my morning coffee... even Porthos is interested now!
There’s a scene where it looks like Balloony is just humping a building in the background while the characters talk... maybe it’s too early for this
Oh shit... I’ve just realised what Balloonga reminds me of! (I’m sorry)
Oo this episode has a finch! :D
Of course the white bird is called Kuro
I like this episode - it has easily 60% more birb than any other episode (Litra doesn’t count)
Hmm... that was... not like the other episodes...
Heeey I recognise this episode... *checks episode number* Ah yes, the episode that started this... Props to @longfang91 for doing such a good episode rundown for ep 13 that I knew which episode it was within the first 2 minutes!
This seems like an appropriate point to pause & remind everyone that @WibDoesTweets & @longfang91 are to blame for this thread being a thing.
