Thomas and friends new series.

[socktastic]

Are they writing Edward and Henry out of the show!? First off they're not sleeping in tidmouth sheds and they've been written out of the song at the end.
I feel like Gordon, I don't like all the changes.

PC gone mad 🙄

The Fat Controller in the American version is called Sir Topham Hat. I guess so no one is offended.

@NewYearNewMe18 are you head of PR?grin

I take it you're a fan?

But Thomas tank isn't fast paced. That's why children like it. And herein lies the reason why my DD prefers watching people make stuff out of playdoh on YouTube. She can follow it! My kids barely watch any modern cartoons. They prefer the old series and youtube. Young children need time and repetition. It's like the people making this stuff have never had kids!!!

My kids like the new Thomas. I don't mind it, far prefer it to the original Awdry stories with their white supremacist overtones.

Edward and Henry were such minor players anyway. I can't think of any striking characteristics other than moaning?

Yeah, Edward and Henry were pretty dull. I think it’s a positive change to add more female characters.

I don’t like it either. It feels like it’s not actually about trains anymore. And I agree that Thomas does sound like a little prick talking to the camera.

(Incidentally, The Fat Director was renames The Fat Controller by Awdry to reflect the nationalization of the railways)

Mach5 ... White supreme sits overtones?!

Thank goodness DS is long past the Thomas obsession years! I like the originals with Ringo

I'll stick to what I grew up with, that's what my ds has watched and he's fine.
