Prodigal son s1e2, because I have nothing better to do but succumb to the addiction @loubuttons and @thisbibliomaniac have dragged me into.

This kid is so tiny to be uncovering his father’s monstrosity. Also what the heck is his bite guard?? As a dental professional, I am Concerned. I am, however, digging the trend of happy bops when he wakes up from his nightmares every morning.

You can’t ignore your mother forever...a’ight, as much as I want her to bug off and leave him alone, at least she’s making sure he eats.

I like how they connect Ainsley’s work to Malcom’s.

“Again with the girl in the box.” Oh frick, they never found her?? Oh that’s appalling. A twenty year old memory from a traumatized boy...that’s a completely fascinating mystery to solve.

The costume department knows what they’re doing with Gil. And Gil knows what he’s dealing with when it comes to Malcom...

Malcolm getting JT’s name wrong and Dani’s right is bringing me joy. Also this family homicide is freaky. Also also everybody’s still hung up on the hand chopping, as they should be.

Mouth sewn shut. That’s sick.

Edrisa Tanaka is adorable and I’m interested to see how she and Malcolm play out.

Oh heck, Aristos being forced to watch his family’s death. Welp, it wouldn’t be a crime show without horrific happenings.

Aaaand now his dad has his phone number. Don’t like that. Going by the hand tremors, neither does Malcolm.

Oh no, Tanaka’s opening his mouth. This is going to be horrible. And Martin is making it exponentially worse with his predatory interest. OH EW THERE’S SOMETHING IN ARISTOS’S MOUTH EW EW EW ITS A SNAKE EW THIS STUPID SHOW SUCKS.

I’m watching ads now and darn chipotle, I want queso now. Heck.

Nnnnnnope to the snake. OH FRICK EW THERE ARE MULTIPLE SNAKES EW. Black mambas no less. Faaaabulous. And Malcolm is choosing now to talk about the brain’s “freeze” function. Nice. I love that his snake skills are what get JT to accept him for another case.

No, Martin, we do not want to bounce around ideas. We want you to rot.

Metaprolol. That’s a bit hilarious, a lot of our patients take that for a medical condition.

Malcolm calmly reintroducing himself to JT to break the awkwardness is a bit hilarious and kind of sweet. “Was it weird?” Good question, JT.

“Are we sure there aren’t any more family members?” Gil asking the smart questions.

Martin needs to STOP with the phone calls! What IS it with the Whitley parents and no sense of boundaries with their son??

Whoop, another kid! Gil called it. Also he looks fantastic with those shades. Lou diamond phillips just looks frickin cool. ‘70s cop vibes.

Ah dear Malcolm, gently breaking the news of a family’s murder.

Ooh, the snakes mean something to Liam. Aaaand he’s running. And he’s keeping...exotic animals, I’m guessing? in this warehouse. Yep, black market animal dealer. Guess we know where the black mambas came from. I doubt Liam is the killer, but he’s definitely connected.

A leopard! That’s cool. Not cool that it’s being smuggled, but the animal is cool.

HE THREW A SNAKE AT MALCOLM oh yikes Malcolm just got bit. This show is whump central, y’all. Also small snakes pack more venom than large ones and he should’ve known that, which means he’s probably downplaying the seriousness of the injury which is VERY on brand for Malcolm. The suicidal ideation is deeply concerning, but hot dang does it make for good tv.

HIS DAD CHLOROFORMED HIM WHEN HE FOUND THE GIRL HOT YIKES. and he woke up panicking. Ugh. Poor boy.

“He’d be willing to come in and discuss your investigation.” And would Liam also be willing to discuss his attempted murder of a police consultant? Because I feel like they shouldn’t let that slide. Oh, Gil isn’t boring. Good man, Gil.

I do like how Malcolm dresses. We should bring vests back. I should buy a vest.

Poor boy. The no-sedatives thing is a serious source of angst. And now Ainsley is prying into his trauma and frankly I do not trust her. Aaaand she stole his phone to listen to his voicemails. My GOSH, this family needs to learn some boundaries!!

He’s one sad boi 😢 somebody needs to protect him because clearly his family doesn’t know how.

Yep, back with worst dad ever. Gotta admit, this is a fascinating dynamic, the way he hates his dad and wants to get away, yet cannot and needs him, and these two actors play it extremely well. The height difference helps sell it, too.

“Good things?” Martin, you drugged him. I don’t know why Malcolm thought he could get some straight answers.

“I’ve always been fascinated by familicide.” Coming from you, Martin, that is disgusting.

Called it, Liam isn’t the killer. Is it the lawyer dude? Oh, no, we’re looking for a bastard kid. Innnnteresting.

“My door is always open.” No, Martin, you are in prison. Your door is locked.

Oh yikes, Liam is dead. And the brass considers the case closed, because good crime shows always include conflict with the brass.

“I don’t need to take a breath! And I don’t need sleep!” YES YOU DO MALCOLM.

Littman! That’s the lawyer dude! Yep, he’s my bet for the killer. Small business loans my foot.

Ohhhh the kid has vitiligo like Aristos! Ahahahaa, somebody just gave himself away. And he’s confessing. And he just poisoned his own family. Frick this dude. I will be outraged if he succeeds in killing his family.

Surgeon’s son. Makes sense he would know what to give them to counteract the metoprolol. Mildly terrified they’re giving an antidote without knowing how much metoprolol they were given, but hey, it’s tv. Don’t try this at home, kids.

I am maliciously pleased by Malcolm saving Littman’s life when Littman asked him not to. Stand trial for your crimes, you stain upon humanity.

“I need it.” “That’s not a good thing.” Preach, Gil. Here’s to the one sane spot in Malcolm’s life.

“Something’s reacting with the alcohol. But I’m fine.” You are NOT, sir.

Dani checking out his loft is kind of cute. And helping him with his cuffs is ;_; She’s remarkably accepting of his weird sleeping arrangements, too, which I kind of respect.

...did his mom know about his dad’s murders?? That’s extremely creepy. Maybe not, maybe I’m reading too much into it.

Oh, we’re not done yet! Should’ve expected that! Why is he sneaking up on his dad?

I should’ve known he wouldn’t let go of the girl in the box. This’ll be an intriguing arc. Aaaand now his dad is gaslighting him and trying to force blame for his own actions onto his son. Somebody needs to bury Martin.

Aaaand his mom is tracking his visits to the prison. Don’t like that, am back to suspecting her.

CanvasWatches: The Dragon Prince

Netflix is making a live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender series.

Just… no? I realize time and development has been put into this. People are employed. But… the first series was magic, stop trying to recapture it.

Netflix has this problem where they want to propel themselves forward with original content, but that content is very mediocre. They try reviving old series and produce productions that disappoint.[1] The original concepts mostly fade into obscurity, are Stranger Things (which had one pretty good season, and then a mediocre second season), or is BoJack Horseman which I haven’t watched but haven’t heard a bad word about.

Then there’s their irritating handling of Anime.[2]

Netflix is willing to experiment and let creators do what they want. I admire that. But (and trust me, I hate to say this), they need focus testing. They need a stricter format. Edges for creators to bump up against and work around.

A standard season length, for one. An allotted time per episode maybe. Make production a puzzle to solve.

Instead they say ‘Let’s do the live-action Avatar series no one asked for, and is a passive insult to the original!’[3]

Which drags us into The Dragon Prince.

Spoilers! You might want to watch it for yourself (it’s nine episodes), but if you don’t mind spoilers, go ahead. I’m not the City Watch.

So, I think we’ve finally figured it out. We had Avatar: The Last Airbender, which was great. Then we distilled the creative staff, ran experiments and isolated elements.

Legend of Korra was good. Had the creators produce it, but not the head writer. The world was the same, but evolved in interesting ways. Good character concepts and real heart, but still missing the magic and character relationships that resonated so well in the first series.

Now, with The Dragon Prince, we get to see what happens when you isolate AtLA’s head writer, Aaron Ehasz.

You get a cliche fantasy setting, weak main plot, and a lot of cheap AtLA mimicry. But you also get some super charming child characters, intriguing (if not currently complex) villains, and small details that could build up to something great.

Which is to say: go to Bryke for the world and myth arc, go to Ehasz for the character interactions.

There it is! The ultimate break down! Let’s pack this up and…

Okay, fine. You want to hear my opinions on The Dragon Prince. That’s… fair, I guess.

So, in this setting, magic comes from six source: The sun! The moon! The Stars! The Ocean! The Earth! I think the sky?[4]

However, then humanity created a seventh magic! Dark Magic! Ooo, so evil, so dastardly!

Sigh.

Just once, I’d like dark magic to just be misunderstood. If they called it Life Magic, they’d probably have better PR.

Anyways, humanity went to war with the elves, but the Dragon King got sick of the fighting, so he sent the humans west, elves to the east, and divided the continent in half with a lava river.

Humanity didn’t really like this, so they killed the dragon king and his egg. So that’s vengeance.

Except this upset the elves because, y’know, murder’s bad. So they send a party from the assassin elf faction: The Moon Shadow Elves! They turn invisible under moonlight![5]

They’re gonna kill the Human king and his son to make things even. Because suddenly murder’s not so bad?

However, a member of the group is a child who couldn’t will herself to kill.

Basically, that cool and exciting setting you created when you were fourteen? Good news, it’s a Netflix Show now! Yay!

Also, the first season is Book 1: Moon.

And the title card is formatted exactly like Avatar, but with white text on a black background.

So the world isn’t special, and they’re deliberately aping some Avatar trappings. But that’s fine, there’s still the characters and plot. We could bicycle this!

So, what do we have with the humans? A beloved king with a dead wife and two children? Okay… both are sons,[6] so at least it’s not the usual nuclear structure. And, hey, the eldest prince is the king’s step son! Nice change.

Who else? King has an advisor that uses dark magic, suggested killing the dragon king and the egg, and talks above his station. But, hey, Lord Viren has two charming children, and he seems genuinely concerned about his king’s survival and the good of…

Oh, he gets a magic makeover in the final episode to make him look more inhuman, and spends the season plotting to take the throne.

Ugh. Of course.

Well, what about Viren’s children? Claudia is a mage like her dad, and is a cloudcuckoolander. Good choice. And she doesn’t do much that’s actively evil. We’ve got Ty Lee in Zuko’s role. I’m game.

Soren is… well, he’s going to be Azula. He doesn’t have her sadistic streak, but he’s been given the job of eliminating claims to the throne, is a competent combatant, and Viren motivates him with being in line for the throne.

He could turn, but my money’s on just being Azula.

Now, to be clear, Viren wasn’t obviously evil. There were plenty of early moments that hinted that he could be sympathetic and non-evil. However, he does spiral into torture and deceit, so once the season is over, there’s no ambiguity. Sorry.

Hey, what about the main cast?

Prince Callum is voiced by Sokka! Awesome! Jack De Sena needs more work. This time, he gets magic and impressive artistic skills! But he had to give up his sword abilities, and kept the daddy issues. But there’s still that snarky edge and loving brother personality, though the weight of them have been swapped.

He’s the half brother of Prince Ezran, who is the heir apparent of the kingdom. He’s… a goofy young boy. I dunno. Aang light. No overt talents. He’s fine.

So those two are hanging out at the castle, when suddenly their father tries to send them off to the winter cabin, despite it being not winter. He suggests made making a dirt man or going mud sledding.

Callum finds this suspect, and eventually logics out that King Harrow expects to be assassinated and wants to get his sons a safe distance away.

Meanwhile, the Moon Shadow Elves are planning their assassination, making a vow on a magic ribbon that will amputate a limb if they fail. Two targets: King Harrow and Prince Ezran to make up for killing the Dragon King and his egg. Even, you know?

Of course, they dragged a literal child along and had her make the same oath with the same ribbon, so screw ‘em. Child soldiers are bad.

This girl is Rayla. She’ll be the rogue of the main cast! Yay![7]

However, after making this promise, they find out she let a guard go so the humans know they’re coming. You’re off the mission Rayla! Turn in your fancy switchblades and ribbon!

Except the ribbon is magic and won’t come off until the job is done, so keep that I guess. And it’d be mean to take away your knives, so… look, stay at camp while the five adults go murder a dude and an actual kid.

Please remember, these jerks wanted to murder an innocent child.

Rayla decides to redeem herself, and sneaks into the castle. She finds the two princes, Callum attempts to martyr himself for Ezran, shenanigans occur in secret tunnels, and… oh, look, it’s the Dragon King’s Egg. Guess they didn’t actually kill that?

Well, let’s call the whole thing off!

Oh, nevermind. Rayla’s Uncle still wants to kill the king and prince. What a jerk.

So our three heroes escape the castle with the egg, planning on returning to the Dragon Queen. We got our mission!

Oh, and the elves killed King Harrow. So… that’s fun.

To be honest, I wouldn’t discount Lord Viren using dark magic to sidestep this. But he’s also trying to claim the throne, so maybe the king is actually dead.

Could go either way.

The kids head off to the royal cottage, where they stumble onto Callum’s aunt. She’s mute! (Maybe deaf, not one hundred percent on that, since lip reading was referenced but also some ambiguity…)

She’s a military General, fights with a shield, is super awesome, and I’m sad how Callum didn’t bring her into the scheme.

Like, yes, for the plot to work, Lord Viren needs to know the princes are alive and the boys have to be careful and having General Amaya know and supporting the boys would’ve caused other troubles.

But… c’mon Callum, literally signing to Amaya that Rayla is a monster and forcing the elf to do a Blue Spirit act is terrible. Like… they’ve established a sweet way for Callum to communicate a secret past her soldiers, and they didn’t use it for a sweet twist?

Ugh. Intentional miscommunication and unnecessary secrets. They are hitting a bunch of my hated tropes.[8]

The children run off and… don’t really do anything very interesting for a couple episodes.

The villain side of things is where the real fun is! General Amaya goes to the castle to report on the survival of the princes and stop Lord Viren from taking the throne.

However, Lord Viren offers her the throne. Again, how the scene is written and acted, I still found myself doubting what role Viren’s supposed to take. He seems genuinely concerned for the general populace, and offers compromises at every turn, and communicates honestly and…

I want Lord Viren to be a misunderstood good guy. I really want Dark Magic to not be an irredeemable evil. A story without a Big Bad, just factions with cross purposes would be great. There’s so many good escape routes for a more interesting story.

Then Lord Viren throws the man Amaya chose (her interpreter, Gren. He’s neat! I like him!) to lead the Prince Recovery Team into a dungeon, where he can watch Viren torture Rayla’s uncle for information.

Yeah… this is who our villain is.

In Gren’s place, Viren sends his children. Soren is given secret instructions to insure the princes don’t make it home alive, and Claudia is given secret instructions to prioritize the safety of the egg. So that’s our Zuko and Azula doing the Avatar hunt.

They have a fun dynamic as Soren doesn’t put much stock in magic and Claudia is an adorable dark magician girl![10] I look forward to more of them.

Now, back to the D&D campaign of the kids: Callum is trying to learn magic after stealing Claudia’s storm magic orb, and he’s pretty good at it. Rayla is worried about the ribbon cutting off her circulation and is an awesome rogue. Ezran… needs to learn healing magic so we can have a Cleric.

They accidentally drop the egg into a frozen lake and are afraid the baby dragon within is dying, so they head off to get help at a town. There’s a fun kid moment with Rayla turning a snowman into a snow-elf (it was a cute moment and Rayla needs more).

Then the group picks up a girl, Ellis, so abruptly that she might as well have been a player that joined between sessions. Ellis rides a giant puppy named Ava, so we’ve got a beast-master fighter!

Ellis tells the boys about a magic healer on the top of a scary mountain filled with scary monsters. With no options, the four go to the mountain.

They fight one monster, have some self reflection, get to the mountain, learn Ezran can talk to animals,[11] and the monsters there are illusions.

They get to where to where the healer is, only to learn that, nah, she’s just a powerful illusionist and Ava only has three legs.

The only way to save the egg is to hatch it. But they need a storm to do so.

Thus, Callum shatters his magic orb to release a storm, the egg hatches, and the titular Dragon Prince is able to gently bite off the magic ribbon Rayla couldn’t cut off with a magic sun knife.

(Either the dragon is magic enough, or saving the baby dragon was considered equal to assassinating Ezran).

Soren and Claudia use a spell to pinpoint the group!

Lord Viren inprisons Rayla’s uncle in a coin and transforms into an eviller looking form!

Also, there’s some mystery with a magic mirror? Cliffhanger stuff.

So… The Dragon Prince is not amazing. The dialogue and character interactions and relationships are great, but the story and world is paint by numbers.

The next season has plenty of room for subversions and interesting experiments, but… until I see it, I honestly think the show’s skippable in its current form. Filler episodes to build the world and characters would do a lot to help, and committing to nuances hinted at for Lord Viren would be great.

Also, hopefully they improve the animation. I’m not normally one to care about frame rates, but boy did the animation stutter a lot for a finished product.

It’s average.

Thanks for reading this review! Consider checking out my other writings, sending me comments and questions, check out my webcomic or RPG Blog, or whatever. Next time, Netflix is releasing an Anime I’ve been excited for nearer the end of the month. Keep an eye out for that, which will post to my Patreon first. I’m also slowly rolling out a Review of Digimon there!

Until we go flying with dragons,

Kataal kataal.
