Now I love SLOTLT, but...
Ryan is such a nothing character. His only debut role is to have someone for Thomas to get unnecessarily jealous over, which is a trope of Thomas I thought we'd never see again
When you have the Arlesdale engines on screen for the first time, kinda overshadows any new characters debuting
I admit, I haven't watched much of Ryan post-SLOTLT, and frankly, I'm not looking forward to it, when he could be replaced by ANYONE
