Whew! I'm going to have trouble keeping up with your remarks on the episodes!

"Awakening Part 3"
Brooklyn the ladies' garg...well THAT certainly would have been interesting to say the least.
And I agree with your observation that it would have been best to not have seen Demona's silhouette (I KNOW that's spelled wrong) in the doorway this early-on. It would have made her reappearance in Part 4 more shocking and her story more believable. At this point I kind of figured Xanatos was untrustworthy, but wondered about "the female gargoyle" and what her role in all this was.
The latch on the freezer door actually would have made that scene more believable (especially because that door shouldn't have been so heavy that Brooklyn and Lexington TOGETHER would have had to exert so much effort). Forgive me for bringing up a little wound here, but WHY does Toon Disney think it has to cut the scene of Brooklyn's escapade with the stove? I would think children would be LESS likely to play with a stove, if that scene does anything other than make them laugh.
Really wish you guys had been able to sneak in Elisa's little joke about names. ;) Hudson really is terrific in that scene, and I still love the zinger Elisa gives about the River.
I do have to agree that everytime I watch this ep now it constantly surprises me to hear Goliath tell a joke. How many of those did he get in the series? Two? Three, maybe?
As for the mistakes in Broadway/Brooklyn's lines and the animation, well...okay, don't take this as criticism (it isn't), but at this point, either one could have said those two lines and it would have been alright. Personally, I kind of like the way it did turn out (not to second guess you, Michael Reeves, and Eric Luke).
And yeah, who'd have thought cameo characters would be given development?

I like these rambles of yours!

I like yours too.

And I have no idea why Toon Disney makes the cuts they do. They don't consult me, obviously.
