His memory loss didn't help, as he only had a vague idea of what an actual family was supposed to feel like. He cares for them, but he doesn't have mental slots where to put these people.

Caranraw's fond of Edmont and F'lhaminn but while he appreciates their parental attitude he doesn't really feel think of them as actual parents. The closest one to actually give him Dad Vibes was Papalymo, but he's also sure that the man would have denied such a baseless accusation.

If they can sell Office licenses and the plagiarism machines, they really should be able to sell something infinitely more interesting like "centaurs in the wild west".

Caranraw is usually very affable and friendly unless you really pissed him off. Plus he's a bard, so worst comes to worst he can just start playing the Eorzean equivalent of Wonderwall and everyone's happy.

You should play Costume Quest for Halloween and Grubbins on Ice for Christmas, as is right and proper. Or the other way round, or at any holiday you like, I'm not the boss of you.

Seriously, just like in the last seasons of the original show, you could feel the Carla-shaped hole in the world.

You can also see that they gave the new season of Scrubs more time to cook because, while I liked the previous one, this one truly feels like old Scrubs. More focus in general, JD fantasies that actually feel like JD's, we're making the patients be people again instead of plot points, and MORE CARLA

After that finale, the problem with Ted Lasso is that it's a series called Ted Lasso and they gotta find reasons to try and center the story around Ted even though he's become a special guest star in his own series.

A gap in the dark, perhaps unfortunately vaginal. Through it you can see the cavern city of D'ni, the glowing orange of the lake, and the towering shape of Kerath's Arch guarding the mouth of the city harbor.

Just like a definition of "what is art", I cannot tell you precisely what makes a comedy a comedy, but I know that it has to be more than a few sensible chuckles here and there in a sea of drama and/or horror. Comedy is not having a funny character or moment, it's the basic scaffolding of the story.
