Any thoughts or plans to do a fan meetup at a Day out with Thomas?

Troysef

What is you opinion on Bruno?

Well, where I live, we have an animated series called Smeshariki (or, as the foreign audience would know them, GoGoRiki [when broadcast on 4Kids]) or Kikoriki). After re-watching your MTaKS videos about Thomas, I've realised the series in question also mirrored some aspects of TTTE, more specifically : *Despite the cover looking like any dumb kids shows, it's entertaining to watch by adults (there are some academic works analyzing the show, I kid you not) *using a short time to tell bigger stories (being about 6:30 minute long) * down to earth stories *never showing morals down the throats but rather letting the audience to think * having open endings that, more often than not, not always being happy ones *very often playing with tone (it's sprinkled with stories that are either comedic, action-filled, dark or quite dramatic) *Both had very high ups and low downs in their history If you are interested, I can DM you with some of the best episodes in my opinion, which will take about an hour to watch.

Angelis feels like a downgrade in S7 because he was so enthusiastic in the previous seasons. Ringo started laid back in S1 and got more enthusiastic in S2. It's personal preference, I guess!

I've thought about it, but I don't really want to mod a Discord server. Maybe someday!

1. Thomas and The Magic School Bus were my two big shows as a little kid. As I got a little older, I watched a lot of Nickelodeon, so Rugrats, Spongebob, Fairly Oddparents, etc. 2. Probably not to YouTube, but they will be in that Drive folder I posted in the Season 6 Retrospective description.

The Unlucky Tug

I'm not sure I follow. Can you give me an example of a show that you think fits this?

The Unlucky Tug

Thank you, you too! 1. I don't play many video games, but I do love the occasional Roblox game. I go through periods where I play Minecraft a lot too. 2. Folk rolk, lofi, and big band. 3 very different genres, I know! haha 3. I don't think I have a favorite, but the ones I watch the most would be Calebtrain, tardisrescue, Terrier55stepney, and Usual Bloke Luke

The Unlucky Tug

1. I love Lego a lot, that's something my fiancee and me share together. Also a huge Better Call Saul/Breaking Bad fan, I follow Star Wars, and I watch a lot of sitcoms. I also really enjoy thrifting! 2. It's going very well! Views are up, and new videos are getting about the same amount of views as they were on the old channel. In a good spot at the moment!

The Unlucky Tug

1. Definitely with a special/movie of some kind that utilizes all the main characters in a meaningful way. Journey Beyond Sodor had the right idea honestly. Not the best movie, but I like that it ends with Thomas realizing Sodor is his home, and all the characters together. 2. Thought about it! Definitely on the list

The Unlucky Tug

1. I don't know much about it! Beautiful engine though 2. A middle-aged/older voice I think works best as a storyteller for Thomas. I'd love to hear someone with a deeper voice try the role, like Morgan Freeman or Kelsey Grammer!

The Unlucky Tug

1. I basically just pick and choose. I try to be fair and give each narrator some exposure, but it really just comes down to whoever I like more in that particular clip. For the CGI series specifically, all my episodes in my archive are the UK dub. 2. Narrators, yes! That's something that's been on my video ideas list for awhile. Some day!

The Unlucky Tug

1. It's gotten a lot better since I start dating my girlfriend/fiancee. Now my days are spent just working, and I keep evenings open to spend time with her. Before, I would just work into the night to get things done! I still do sometimes, depending on the project. I do feel the pressure sometimes, that's why I keep my side job of doing freelance web design, so I always have income even on a slow YouTube month. 2. Would love to! BCS/BB is my favorite drama of all time. I don't know if there's a demand for that on my channel though. And thank you so much!!

And S6 Alec Baldwin?

Why does S1 Ringo work whereas S7 Michael Angelis doesn't?

Pranav S Rao

do you think you'll make a discord server for patrons at some point

Sorry I am late but... 1. Did you watch any other children shows as a kid? What are your thoughts on other children's properties, i.e. The Wiggles, Bob the Builder? 2. Are you going to re-upload your pre-2020 videos to YouTube again?

I tried to ask that in your Patreon DMs to no avail, but how open are you to checking family-orientated series that seem like a very childish thing on the outside, yet inside it's more nuanced and provides the material for thought? (especially if it was made in non-English country)

TWTE2001

Hello, Tug! I hope you have a great day! My questions are : 1. What is your favorite game to play during spare time? 2. What is your favorite genre of music? 3. Who’s your favorite Thomas Youtuber?

1. What are your other interests/fandoms outside of Thomas and modeling? 2. How’s building up the new channel been going after the old one was terminated?

Christian Pham

1. If BWBA had never been approved, how would you have ended the Brenner Era? 2. Would you ever do an inverse of the Top CGI Gems video? Like Worst Episodes of Thomas?

1. What are your thoughts on the Santa Fe 3751 steam locomotive? 2. Which of these American people do you think would’ve made a good Thomas narrator for the US dub? Dave Hood, Bill Murray, Charles Martinet (in his normal voice and not his Mario voice), Chris Pratt, Charlie Day, or someone else?

How do you choose what dub of the show to use in your video. You switch between the 2. Is it which one you think is better in that particular clip. Or which one you have the best footage of ? Would you do a video ranking the narrators or the cgi voice actors?

1. How is your work/life ballance after becoming a full timw content creator? Is it better or worse being your own boss? Do you ever feel presure knowing you have to rely on youtube/crowd funding? 2. Will you ever do a review on Better Call Saul in the future? Or breaking bad? Maybe not El Camino lol, found that to be a bit pointless, what about you? 3. No other questions, just want to wish you and your fiance a very happy marriage!
