The episodes were excellent.
"Scare Tactics" paced itself quite well with the plots, and I appreciate the fact that Geoff cares about Scratch so much. Also, it shows that the crew cares about continuity so much.
"The Ballad of Bobby Daniels" was very soapy with the plot to great effect. The reveal, while obvious, clearly pulled out the drama. It was like watching something out of Lifetime.
Also, who knew Molly McGee could be so threatening?
So, how's the general reception to this show been? I was surprised it had such a relatively large fandom (online that is) because it didn't seem all that plot intensive. Has it kept that online fandom or has it fizzled out.
I'd say the series has been pretty well received as an addition to Disney Channel's line up of shows, especially in wake of Ducktales 2017 and Big Hero 6 The Series finishing about 6-7 months before the series premiered, Amphibia set to wrap up in less than two months, and Owl House wrapping up too and considered a good show to continue the streak of good Disney cartoons.
Though ratings have been pretty hit and miss, heck the recent batch aside from Game Night/Don't Gooder all went below 300,000 views in ratings (while Big City Greens still did above that mark).
I think it's especially cause the writing and humor are quality stuff.
And even if it's not lore based, there are still moments where we get development like Molly and Libby's friendship with the latter finding out about Scratch. Possible development for Andrea as well.
Even just tight continuity which sometimes has significance like a throwaway line in the first half of Episode 1 getting a callback in Innocent Until Proven Ghostly.
Might want to elaborate on the video

Alright, so, last year, someone asked about the show's timeline from "Monumental Disaster" and it's confirmed that it is set in the present day:
I'd clean up the Next Sunday A.D. entry and add one for Writers Cannot Do Math, but I'd feel better about the latter if it linked to the tweet (especially since he literally admitted math wasn't his strong suit), and it doesn't show up in Google and it seems like you need to sign into Twitter (which I don't have an account on) to scroll back that far in the feed (thank you goalpost-moving corporate need to keep fixing what isn't broken). Is anyone else able to do that? Or was it deleted and that screenshot is all that's left (like Matt Braly's alleged "stay tuned about the New Wartwood blush" tweet)?
There is no beginning. There is no end. There is only... Hooty.It'd be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to scroll back that far with an account. Still, in this case Writers Cannot Do Math makes enough sense that I don't think the Word of God needs to be that scrutinized, whereas the Amphibia case was questionable from the start since it was extremely pandery and had nothing within the show to back it up.
SoundCloudIt's not that I doubt the veracity in this case, just that the trope name feels a little insulting (plus I genuinely enjoy sourcing my work), but I suppose that's just me.
(And I wouldn't say the other one "had nothing within the show to back it up", since it was just a reference to something that literally happened in the show and an implication that it would eventually be called back to, which... hasn't definitively been disproven yet. "Pandery" is probably the best way to put it, though.)
There is no beginning. There is no end. There is only... Hooty.X4, Yeah, a post from November of last year is going to be a pain to find.
Also, might I suggest typing up the quote on Google? Or use Twitter's advanced search function?

Re: When the show takes place, I found the tweet.
Man, who's been keeping up with stuff on the show? I'm on the Discord and I don't check it much anymore because it's getting rather big for my comfort.
Anyway, TV Passport has a new listing:

I watched the "Spring Shortstacular!".
The shorts were alright, but you gotta admit, the framing story was very funny. Nice fourth-wall jokes ending with something truly heartwarming.
A 10/10 for that framing story.
