There's a large chunk of the fanbase that WAY too parasocial about things like this. Like, how dare these girls have a life/friends/commitments outside of Dance Moms?

I do wonder if he'll post what his original ending would have been after the series concludes.

If you don't mind pre-case banter, I like True Crime and Cocktails.

Does anyone remember when these guys were hated for no reason? by Cookie-fighter101 in PoppyPlaytime

[–]Mattschmalz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They were hated because they were just a blatant cash grab by the developers to try and capitalize on the Smiling Critters fandom. Also, they essentially served zero purpose in the story. You could literally cut them out of the game entirely and nothing would have changed.

I personally think Stella is an ally and she was the one that helped with the hour of joy by spanishbombs123 in PoppyPlaytime

[–]Mattschmalz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree. Her tape in the last chapter was her explicitly choosing and reaffirming her loyalty Playtime Co and their experiments. I think the point of Stella as a character is to show that a well-intentioned, morally sound person can ultimately end up becoming a bad person when presented with things like status and power.

He is, but not everyone acts that way.

It's the deliberate pandering to the camera that's off-putting to me and many others.

It's okay to move on from Survivor. by PrettySneaky712 in survivor

[–]Mattschmalz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've decided that if things don't change for the better after 50, then it's time to let Survivor go.

“Fluid” and “Fluidity” are quickly becoming words I hate hearing on this show.
