A little bit about My Love for Thomas
Hello, My name is SirHandel27. I have been a Thomas fan nearly all my life and every time I watch an episode, I'm loving every moment of it. I have Wooden railway, Take Along/Take-n-Play, Ertl and Hornby trains and am building a massive Hornby layout as I speak! I am also a massive TUGS fan and own every single VHS!

The Complete Fourth Series (VHS)- My first ever Thomas Video!

My View on the CGI Series.
I watched the first airing of Series 12 in the UK. The first piece of  CGI  I saw was Thomas looking up at the bridge with the boy waving in the opening credits. I was very confused as I was unaware of the new CGI style. Then I saw Thomas saying, "Hello everybody..." which made me wonder if the models were going to disappear :(. After seeing  Thomas and the Billboard, I was disappointed. Not the best episode and I was still upset about the moving faces and people. However, when  Steady Eddie  came out, my mind was slightly changed. A great Episode and I was slowly getting used to all the CGI. As the episodes went on, I got more and more used to the changes. I was happy to see  Great Waterton  make an appearence, and I thought that  Hank  and  Flora  looked great, and the fact that  Hector  made another appearence, this time a good truck made me all the happier.  Neville ,  Murdoch ,  Duck ,  Oliver  and  Toad's  return even happier. Then, Hero of the Rails came out. I kinda liked it, but I wasn't as special as The Great Discovery. I was disappointed that models had completely gone, but liked the way the different characters had there own voices. I thought Nitrogen Studios did a great job, but I still prefer the models. Series 13 was a real downside to me. I felt that the episodes were quite rushed, and not thought out as good as they could of. There were some really good episodes, but some that really didn't need to be there. And the fact that the writers were going against the original series is really annoying. In The Early Bird, the episode is how Thomas learns how to pull the mail. This writer obviously hasn't seen Thomas, Percy and the Post Train. Thomas was the original engine to pull the mail. This episode really didn't make any sense.

And then, Misty Island Rescue came out. WOW! I thought it was quite good, with a great story line with epic scenes. The only disappointment, is how unrealistic Misty Island is with the Shake Shake Bridge, the Zip Line Bridge, Ol' Wheezy and the lack of humans are just a few of these things, as well as the rhyming. But the series that followed is one of my favourite series ever. A really good pick up after the down sided first impression of CGI. Ok, maybe a few of the episodes could have been better, but the majority were really cool. I enjoyed watching every episode.

Next up, Series 15 aired early, for unknown reasons. I think this series had some great episodes, but the fact that Sharon Miller wrote nearly all the episodes, made me feel it was kinda rushed. Now, before I found TTTE Wikia, all my life I used Wikipeadia. And Wikipeadia said that the 17th episode was called "The Biggest Coal Run Ever" and Neville was going to be the main character. Wasn't I disappointed that when it came for the 17th episode, Wonky Whistle, the worst episode in Thomas'  History, came on. I'm sorry guys, but when you think Neville is going to appear in CGI, then that comes on, you've gotta hate it! Then came Day of the Diesels. I liked this one a lot, I just found it rather repetive from The Great Discovery. One main example, is when Percy finds Flynn in his berth of Tidmouth Sheds, doesn't this sound similar to when Thomas finds Stanley in his berth. And how Percy was always racing bact to the Dieselworks also got annoying. But the music was epic, and the scene of the stemies racing to take back the Steamworks is one of my favorite scenes ever!

Series 16 came up next, and it was a lot better than the previous series. Some episodes were pretty lame, like Thomas Toots the Crows, but there were some amazing ones too. And for the first time in years, there is a story where Thomas doesn't have a speaking roll. Percy and the Monster of Brendam, Percy and the Calliope and Whiff's Wish were truly remarkable. Whiff's Wsh also brought the return of the Sodor Suspension Bridge and the Flying Kipper. In the US, it said the quarry was Ffaquar quarry. The writer, Andy Bernhardt, must be a fan of the railway series. Finally, Blue Mountain Mystery arrived. I found this very exciting, and one of the best specials. I felt that there could have been a bit more places, the BMQ appeared too much. But a very thrilling final piece for Nitrogen Studios to end.

I think Nitrogen did a very good job at the Thomas series.

When Railway Mischief came out, I was really excited. But it was a very long wait for the videos to be posted on YouTube. I was a little disappointed to find out that Michael Angelis had left the voice cast, but Mark is just as good. I found that Arc productions also did quite a good job. I couldn't say it was better, but it was different. They moved to different angles more, and Kellsthorpe returned! However, I found it hard that in the final scene of Wayward Winston all the engines were puffing along the same track. I'm very excited that Series 17 has aired and the episodes so far are great, bar Steamie Stafford, which was slightly a downcast for me. But DUCK RETURNED! I also enjoyed finding out more from Ulfstead Castle and Millie and I enjoyed Charlie's quest to get somebody to believe him about the elephant! And the came the most amazing special of all times, King of the Railway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It really was a great day P when I brought it and watched it at home (I gotit on the day it came out) and boy was it brill. Not only was the animation tops, but the story line was AMAZING like totally cool like well epic! And HENRY DOESNT HAVE SPECIAL COAL ANYMORE. WHAT????????! I LOVE Andrew Brenner, his writing style is AMAZING AND NOW I'M SO HYPED UP I BETTER STOP WRITING BEFORE I BREAK THE KEYBORD/COMPUTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
