Seeing everyone rate The Story and the Engine so high makes me really curious about it…
(Rogue and Devils Chord are wrong way round)
And if you throw all of RTD2 into da mix:

Oh no, I hope we are not affecting your expectations which may make you be disappointed! (Basically what happened to me with every single “best ever!” Main Range story…)
That remains to be seen! I will go in as neutral as possible, and knowing very little about it
- The Story & the Engine (8/10)
- The Well (8/10)
- Lucky Day (6/10)
- Lux (6/10)
- The Robot Revolution (4/10)
Out of curiosity how do these compare to last year for you?
Roughly the same really, with the edge given to Season One at this point.
Space Babies > Robot Revolution
Lux > Devil’s Chord
Boom = The Well
73 Yards >>>> Lucky Day
Story & the Engine > Dot and Bubble
Rogue was one of my favourites last year so Interstellar Song Contest will have to be quite special to bring this season level pegging.
Season One’s finale is unfortunately a massive drag factor in its average so if the next 3 episodes are even just decent then the seasons will level out the same for me.
But I’m still cautious. Hopeful, but cautious.
Yeah that’s fair, I totally get that! For me I loved most of season 40 other than the first episode and the finale, and both dragged it down for me. So very cautiously optimistic for the last 3 episodes atm because we’re 5/5 in my eyes so far
I would love to think the same but we’re far from that 5 for 5 for me and I can’t get last year’s finale out of my head in terms of how the overall structure of a season is being approached by this team. So I’m quite nervous about this being another bitter disappointment.
The only hope I do have is that I’m wrong, but this era is rarely proving me wrong so the nervousness increases the closer we get…
I never judge an episode till I’ve watched it though so I always go in with an open mind. And we always take the most recent episode with us in the week leading up to the next one and I liked Story & the Engine so much that I’m quite buoyed up at the moment! I just don’t want a Rogue to Legend of Ruby Sunday crash that I had last year.
But in Juno Dawson I trust so
TRR > Space Babies
Lux - TDC
Boom > Well
73 Yards > Lucky Day
Story and the Engine > Dot and Bubble
The Robot Revolution > Space Babies
Lux > The Devil’s Chord
The Well > Boom
73 Yards > Lucky Day
Dot and Bubble > The Story & the Engine (I think that might change on rewatches but that’s my gut at the moment).
I think that my list is exactly the same
The Robot Revolution > Space Babies
The Devil’s Chord > Lux
The Well > Boom
73 Yards > Lucky Day
The Story & the Engine > Dot and Bubble
So far,
Space Babies < The Robot Revolution
The Devil’s Chord < Lux
Boom = The Well
73 Yards >>>> Lucky Day
Dot and Bubble < The Story & the Engine
Space Babies > The Robot Revolution (I just had more fun with SB…)
The Devil’s Chord < Lux
Boom > The Well
73 Yards > Lucky Day
Dot and Bubble < The Story & the Engine !
I expect to like Interstellar much more than Rogue, which I found quite dull
