I have liked Nostalgia Critic for a while now. Despite his show being movie reviews, I find myself returning his videos for a laugh. What makes him different is that he often reviews TV shows and movies that I grew up with, since I grew up in the nineties. The majority of the humour was dark, funny, and clever. Then, Doug Walker retired from the show, and I was happy that he ended the show so that we could remember it as good rather than horrible, as what happens to some shows when they go on too long.
When I heard that Doug Walker was resurrecting Nostalgia Critic and making new episodes, I worried a little that the quality of the show would slip a little, as is the risk with all shows that are resurrected. I wasn't too fond of his premiere episode, but this second episode made me feel happy that he's back. In this episode, Nostalgia Critic intelligently reviewed the Twilight franchise and pointed out that while it is very flawed and has lots of things to hate, we shouldn't worry about it being the downfall of our society. People grow up and evolve. I thought that was an extremely insightful point, and it really shows his understanding of people and society. I'll say now that I am not a Twilight fan, but I don't hate on it the way many people seem to. It's just a phenomenon that will pass in time, so people who worry about it corrupting our young people should really pipe down.
So, welcome back Nostalgia Critic! I look forward to what else you have in store for us this year.
