How Do We Like The Reboot

Post by SirWhit »

Exactly what the title says. What do people think about the reboot? Personally, I think that it's getting back on it's feet from the terrible Albums 51 & 52. It was split episode albums bad the first two albums. It picked up in 53, and has been getting progressively better since.

That's how most people feel, I think. My opinion differs only slightly, but that's because I didn't start listening at the end of the hiatus, I stopped listening until 2012 (and then I went to the live show and that reawoke my interest). I think that worked to my favor, because I was less likely to compare it to older stuff.

That said I did think album 51 was a mixed bag. Jubilee was fantastic for the most part, but the rest of the album wasn't that strong. Where I disagree with most people is 52, I actually enjoyed it more than most people. 53 through 56 was fantastic. I'm still not sure what to think of 57, but my initial reaction was that it wasn't quite as good as the previous four.

I've only heard random episodes here and there after album 51, but it does seem to have gotten better. Actually I did listen to all of 53 and it wasn't on par with previous big epic long story things but it was good.

The dark, gritty reboot I proposed would have been better. :(

Yes, it probably would have been better.
