So uh, earlier I was under the assumption that the show was shorter than it really was. I felt silly but hey, great news, as it means more to watch! I'm currently at "Secrets" which to my pleasure so happens to be a Halloween-themed episode. I'm a sucker for things that give even the slightest reference to that holiday. I have to say, one thing overall that I love is that they definitely played up the fact that Captain Marvel is definitely in a younger stage. I'm used to his more mature character (despite of course still being a kid, obviously) but he's kind of adorable here, even as Capt. Marvel over Billy. For me, an episode that definitely stood out was "Failsafe." Not so much a "that was the greatest episode so far" manner, but more of a haunting effect. It really gets to me, even though in the beginning I was sure it wasn't actually everyone getting defeated, and that there had to some some kind of twist, still, the entire episode up even through the ending was pretty chilling. Which, makes sense considering how if affected everyone in the next episode. Which by the way, loved the short addition of the Forever People (of New Genesis)
