Season 5 for sure! big fan keep up the great work!

Its a shame the Star Wars one isn't here but i hope there still is a chance for it later down the road but can't wait for the season 5 retrospect

Oh yes, once the internet and forums became a normal thing, older fans definitely had opinions of their favorite shows to share. I remember S5 was well-liked until they found out there were several unused RWS stories that got overlooked in favor of original behavior, which to purists was considered unforgivable. Fortunately, time gives perspective, and everyone has pretty much moved past that

Overall, I’m going to stop voting for the Retrospectives, despite the fact they’re my favourite videos on your channel. For me they’ll only stay exciting for so long once we leave the next couple of seasons, and I know they’ll happen - the other video ideas however, might not, so I voted for the CGI Highlights video. Hopefully the Star Wars video hasn’t died a death completely.

Wow, I didn’t think a ‘fandom’ would have existed back then, but I suppose it makes as much sense! I know as a child I loved S5, and found S6 a little off (before then dropping off completely), so the change was clear to children too.

I can’t wait to see your standout episode for series 5

I would love all of these so much. S5 is such a trip. I remember back in the day a huge section of the fandom HATED it for straying away from Awdry's work and being "unrealistic" -- a hate that S6 & 7 received as well. Then, we suffered through the HIT era, and then the Miller era, and by the time the Brenner era rolled around (plus the republication of Chris Awdry's books reminding everyone that just weren't as good as Wilbert's), people realized that S5 should be cut a break, and it's definitely considered the last "golden" season

Season 5! My childhood season!

These are all great choices, but I gotta say, I'd LOVE to cap off the Thomas Retrospective this year with S5; ALL the classic seasons done in one go!

I was looking at the Thomas retrospective for season 4 and I was like, season 5 is going to be a ride so my vote goes there.

If there’s one thing I’m excited for that you’re working on, it’s the S5 retrospective video. I rewatched the S4 one the other day and got nostalgic seeing you describe all the reasons why it’s one of my favorites from the classic series, so seeing you pick it up with S5 with your perspective will be a lot of fun.
