This isn't a Curse; It's a Gift

It's my 12 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

I don't know when I'll continue watching, because it's gonna be rough without Alvin 😞 I still have one episode left with him, though.

All in all, a solid season, I'll definitely be coming back to it and rewatching my favourite moments

I won't spoil but you're on the right track about it being unsatisfying lol. They set up so many cool things in season 1 and it still bothers me they were just dropped! I've been watching the Umbrella Academy with Colm Feore who played Ray in season 1 and thinking about how he just randomly disappeared. Why would Toby stop visiting him? He's the only one who knows about his past. And he was such a great father figure for Toby, they could have really expanded on that. And he's a great actor.

Sometimes I think about the random plot line in S2 as well, where Toby was "dying" from using his powers too much. They dropped that out of nowhere too. The writers basically didn't know what they were doing lol. Shame as S1 was such perfection.

I just wanted to say, I'm so happy I found this blog. Found out about The Listener a couple of weeks ago after falling down the Peter Stebbings rabbit hole and thought the fandom was dead and gone. Currently in the middle of S4, so I didn't risk scrolling through the entire blog, haha
