[cxrrodedcoffin]

i discovered florence and the machine by frantically typing in the lyrics “every demon wants his pound of flesh” into google on the family computer to find out what ethereal song i had just heard in the latest episode of degrassi to air on teen nick in 2012

Jfc the amount of nonsense, baseless takes about Agatha All Along coming from people who haven't even watched the damn show yet! Chill y'all! There'll be plenty to complain about when you know the facts and context!

(Spoilery thoughts below)

I'm really hoping the show will truly be about Agatha, not just set things up about Wanda and her being alive. The identity and arc of Teen will likely be a big decider on that front.

Personally I think Teen is most likely Agatha's son Nick Scratch and/or something to do with Mephisto. Or maybe even a set up by Rio 🤷🏻‍♂️

Aside from references to the maiden, mother, and crone, and the lock of hair in Agatha's pendant, motherhood was a huge theme in Wandavision and I think we'll see it continuing through the tryptic with AAA and VisionQuest too. I'm really hoping for an adaptation of the comic run where Vision creates his own family.

If Teen IS Billy I strongly suspect he will be Billy Kaplan NOT a variant of Billy Maximoff. Kaplan is a reincarnation of Billy Maximoff, which could potentially involve Mephisto as well.

Either way I think we could see Teen being set up to join Young Avengers as Wiccan with Kamala, Kate, and (possibly) Cassie - we've seen Marvel shift names and combine characters before, that would make sense here too.

Gonna go rewatch the episodes on a loop and question and obsess over every shot now ✨💜💚✨

It's so interesting to me, as I grow older to see how some of the reactions these kids have are very mild considering that they go through the most traumatising experiences.

I was listening to the anubis backwards podcast interview with Brad Kavanagh (which if you are an anubis fan I highly recommend you go check out because it is super interesting), and he did mention something about how the reactions had to fall in line with the fact that it is still a kid's show. So the reactions could never be too strong.

Taking this, it makes me think about how mentally distressed these students are but they could never really express that because of the PG nature of the show. Having recently rewatched the show I realised how traumatising the things that happen to these kids are and how irl these things would affect a person mentally, but sometimes it makes you angry that these things are sort of just brushed under the carpet.

I want to start off by talking about my girl Patricia. She was gaslit by everyone around her, kidnapped, betrayed by the people whom she trusted would take care of her, has no memory of what we can assume is weeks of her life, and based on the whole Piper situation we can possibly assume she feels neglected or overshadowed. I think this is what leads her to not be vulnerable in front of anyone. Yet, we don't see her express her PTSD at any point after the whole nightmare situation with Rufus. I would have really liked to have seen her PTSD or trauma addressed in some form. For example, how her and Eddie becoming a couple helped her with her nightmares because she finally felt safe with someone and she finally feels like someone believes her and loves her unconditionally.

Then there's Joy. There is so much to talk about when it comes to Joy and I will forever be mad about how the writers address istg maybe 4 times since she came back. She was kidnapped by her own father, betrayed by her teachers, almost sacrificed to some Egyptian cult, had no contact with the outside world, had her education, friends and freedom taken from her at the young age of 16 (I assume), and after all of this still being forced to go back to school and be taught and associate with the people who caused all of this. I really hate how when she came back no one even asked how she feels to be back or just generally checking on her mental health. I’m surprised she went back to that school at all tbh. It was all business as usual and even she didn’t exhibit any ptsd symptoms. I think something as simple as just showing her being terrified of being left in the same room as these teachers would make for an interesting plot point, or talking to Patricia about how she feels scared going back to school. The only time when Joy does exhibit any form of PTSD is when they are forced to wear the robes in S3 and the poor girl literally looks terrified. There’s so much to unpack with Joy, so the last thing I will say is that in S2 I feel like one of her arcs could be learning to deal with the trauma and overcome it. Also it makes me so mad that none of the adults apologised to her.

Moving on to Eddie Miller. This boy has probably dealt with abandonment issues his whole life from his dad leaving. His whole 'rebel' persona probably came about from him not having a male figure in his life and was almost trying to fill that void or not being able to cope with his dad leaving. This is probably why Eddie finds it hard to open up to people, with the first person he truly trusts (besides his mum probably) is Patricia as he says multiple times that he trusts her and he tells her directly that he likes her, which he says himself was not easy for him. He does start to build a relationship with his dad but once again it is something that gets resolved in like 5 minutes and from there they seem to have the building blocks to start building a relationship. This is nice, don't get me wrong, but given that Eddie's dad has been out of his life for years and all it took was a 5-minute convo to get their relationship rolling seems unrealistic. In the conversation, Eddie does say "you didn't want me then, and you don't want me know", which I think is a very deep line for a nick show but still I think irl a boy in Eddie's position would have had a lot more of his true feelings and emotions flow out.

Jerome is a similar case to Eddie. A boy who struggles to reconnect with his father after years. I will say I always thought this arc was really deep for a nick show. A boy finds out his father is in prison and tries to rebuild a connection with him. I do have to say that arc of Jerome rebuilding his relationship with his father has a better pace in comparison to Eddie and his dad, but still, I do imagine a boy discovering his estranged father is in prison would cause a bigger reaction, but once again going back to the idea that it is a kid's show they had to keep his reaction relatively 'neutral'. Also considering that Eugene Simon is a great actor I think he would be able to represent those emotions really well.

Of course, there is still so much to say about all of the characters in the show, but I do find this an interesting observation also in line with what Brad said on the podcast.

I remember when I was young, going from Disney sitcoms to Teen Nick sitcoms where they were allowed to say “Oh my god,” and I thought that was the edgiest shit, ever.

Welcome Back, SPLAT Logo

This year Nickelodeon resurrected the SPLAT design for its logo that hadn’t been used since 2009.

This week Yahoo! Entertainment shared an interview with designer Scott Nash who created the original logo. Nash went in depth about MTV’s role in inspiring the design, its use for the Nickelodeon brand, the decision to make it orange, the influence and legacy its had with the network and what came after, etc. 

The logos wiki also has an in-depth page about the history of the logo’s design.

It’s a pretty cool visual history that goes FAR back.

Hey everyone,

So every once in a while, I remember that when I was a little kid I was watching TeenNick late at night in the early 2000s, it had to have been 2012 or before, and I remember I was watching this episode of the show I’ve never seen before. The art style reminded me a lot of Generator Rex But I don’t think it was. I mean I’ve never seen Generator Rex so I wouldn’t know. So I remember the episode taking place on a spaceship of some kind. I don’t know if just the episode was on a spaceship, or if it was the whole show, but the premise of the episode is that somehow these worms get in the ship, and the worms like stick out of peoples faces and it mind controls them and they’re evil now and I started it in the middle of the episode and I never saw how it resolved. Every year or so it just comes back into my mind and plagues me because I can’t find it anywhere on the Internet. Like usually I remember something from my childhood and I can search up some like keywords and then Google’s like oh I know what you’re talking about, but I cannot find this show anywhere and I don’t know what episode it is. I’m wondering does anybody know what the show is called? What show I’m thinking of and what episode this is because I desperately I just wanna watch it and like know what the hell was going on in that episode.

OK thanks.

Sometimes I'm sad that Victorious got canceled so early, but the more I think about it, it was probably a blessing in disguise. The writing quality was starting to dip around the end, and iCarly suffered a huuuge quality drop the longer it went on. Forever I've proclaimed that iCarly is the better show, and that it was my favorite. But honestly, iCarly is really only good for the first 3 seasons. There's a ton of later episodes I've probably never seen to this day because I stopped paying attention to it. Victorious was mostly strong till the little trip and fall at the end. So while iCarly's first 3 seasons are really strong, I'd say Victorious is over all the better show.

Also I can rewatch Victorious as an adult and enjoy it. iCarly is tough to rewatch for...numerous reasons. So I guess it'd be fair to say it holds up the better of the two

Ok so they break a lot of ouija board rules in the challenge.

"Do not remove your hand or a spirit will be released." A spirit. Singular. Everyone removes their hands so that makes 6 spiritS plural. I don't think Agatha is the only person being possessed here. When they all release the planchette the room is filled with screams. They quieten slightly as Jen suggests punishing Agatha and then silence. I think the original coven could be possessing, or connecting to her found family coven to encourage and influence them against Agatha.

Teen "Do not use the board alone". What happens if you use it alone? Has he been possessed by Nicholas Scratch? Is that why his powers increased and he got his lil wiccan crown?

"Always end your session with goodbye." Welp. Teen is the only one to do that. Does that mean the other spirits could still be present? I definitely think Agatha still has someone else rattling round inside her. She's so weird at the "end" of the trial.. idk if I believe her completely about not wanting to steal powers, she may have lost control but I don't think she meant to kill Alice. The sadness, fear, and regret over what she's done seems genuine but we know Agatha's a great actress. And that end part with Teen?? So. Weird. Again, I think she's possessed. Another option could be she's past the point of no return with her projection about Teen being Nicholas and was referring to herself as his mother but idk.. it was weird.

Also Agatha revealing "Death is present" when she's faking had me cackling. I'm guessing y'all noticed Rio was conveniently absent when Teen/Wiccan/Billy finally had enough of Agatha/possessed Agatha's bullshit. Once again, her work has to come before her angry scary sexy lady 🤷🏻‍♂️

as someone who has never gotten past episode one of victorious, nina martin and patricia williamson were the tori vega and jade west of house of anubis in my opinion.
