Love the redemption for Cody. This episode is great cause it resembles a clone wars mission (clones fighting droids), but at the end Cody realizes that they aren't the good guys anymore when that separatist lady gets executed- and so he leaves the empire right after that. What happened to the clones is really tragic
I’ve said this on other reactions but I’m honestly just so impressed by the creators’ ability to give so much emotion and depth to the pauses between words, glances between characters, and every other unspoken thing. Paired with Kevin Kiner’s hauntingly expressive score, we are able to really feel the weight of each character’s inner demons/conflict. So many other shows would rush through “difficult” subject matter, jump from fight scene to fight scene, or over-explain everything, but with The Bad Batch, I’m continuously impressed by the level of restraint and maturity Filoni’s team displays in its writing/animation. Well done ❤
I agree. I very much doubt they'd kill Cody off screen. He's been with us for a very long time. If he does get killed, it'll be on screen and hit us in the feels for sure
@@seanmidson they def didnt kill him but i feel he was arrested, for disobeying orders. It makes sense and is pretty likely w the empire, and also seems that way w how rampart said that he “disappeared”
1:22 Remember in Season 1 when Crosshair executed a member of his squad for refusing to execute civilians, and then the rest of the squad gunned down and flame-throwered them?
One of my favorite subtleties in this episode is the replacement of Clones with TK recruits. I think Cody noticed that when the TKs came off the shuttle as the Clones were leaving
Cody probably regrets shooting down Obi-Wan. He was basically Obi-Wan's Rex. You even see that Cody tries to be the negotiator similar to Kenobi. Rex's personally is similar to Anakin, while Cody is similar to Kenobi. Cody is more strict with rules like Kenobi. While it's easy for Rex to disobey orders.
5:46. That wall behind them is a memorial to the fallen clones btw And the fact that Cody questions the Empire twice in front of Crosshair. Super emotional and heartbreaking cause you know he's thinking about Obiwan. Here's the thing clones that defect either by design or they go awol to Kaminoans those clones were a bad batch. So maybe when reading the title and when we get episodes like these maybe we are supposed to think of them as a clone going bad batch.
AWOL is absent without leave so Cody just up and left. So that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s dead. I suspect he shows up later in the season (hopefully meeting up with Rex again) as I keep hearing rumors that this all leads to a clone rebellion/revolt/revolution.
Personally I never understood why people thought he was dead. I rolled my eyes the first time I saw a thumbnail featuring that assumption thinking it was your typical Star Wars clickbait. Probably was, but I guess a lot of people are just tone-deaf and can’t read the context.
@@MikeKennedyNFL They're just never gonna kill off a character that significant off-screen, at most he'll be imprisoned by the Empire., but there is 0 chance he is dead.
@@CJB02 Cody is not nearly as significant a character as you think. He was everybody’s first named clone though, so I understand why you might think that way.
@@MikeKennedyNFL that alone makes him significant. It’s a show entirely about clones, and he’s one of the most important clones we’ve seen in the Star Wars universe, he’s not going to die off screen. Especially because he was originally supposed to be in Kenobi, they clearly have plans for him beyond dying in this.
This was, I think, the best episode so far between both seasons. It's heartbreaking yet fascinating to see how the Empire became the oppressive entity it was. One detail that I really liked was watching Cody demonstrate some negotiating skills. It makes sense he would have attempted that, I think, considering his Jedi general, Obi-Wan, was known as the negotiator. I loved seeing the conflict in Cody as well and I also don't believe he's dead; they wouldn't kill a major clone like Cody offscreen. Also, the music in this episode was fire. Fantastic reaction, as always! 🙂
This episode feels like a classic clone wars episode flipped on it's head in the best and most dark way. We're "rooting" for Crosshair and Cody through the majority of the episode even though we really shouldn't be. Even makes me think about the Clone Wars episodes in a new light too, absolutely fantastic.
One of the things I loved about this episode was Cody talking about the Purge and following orders. The look of regret, when he says you have to live with your actions, when Cody and Crosshair are talking about the difference between droids and clones. If you remember, Cody had no clue about the chips, so he blames himself for what happened to Obi-Wan, he remembers trying to kill his, arguably, best friend.
this episode had me tearing up from how the clones are just slaves and became the bad guys and are now seeing it after killing all their friends/generals
Seeing Cody made me smile. I really hope he gets to see Rex at some point throughout the series. He clearly already made up his mind about leaving but wanted to see if Crosshair would leave with him before going AWOL. I have a bad feeling about Cody making it out of this show alive as I've not heard anything about him since Clone Wars & Episode 3. Either way, Dave Filoni really be hitting us all in the feels. It was really cool seeing Crosshair's reaction to Rampart talking shit about Cody. It clearly struck a nerve. He may go back to the fam by the end! Also love seeing battle droids every time. I'll never get bored of them! "Mmmmmhmmmm" 😂
Honestly, it didn't occur to me that *Cody* might've been killed until it was brought up in another video. But given what happened to *Wilco,* I guess it's possible...Though unlikely.
Cody wasn’t killed or taken by the empire, if that didn’t happen, Rampart would of admitted it. Cody and lots of other clones are running away from the empire, and I’m hoping there is some sort of clone rebellion
You can definitely see a lot of what Obi-Wan would have done in that negotiation scene that Cody attempted. I like to imagine that every time Cody paused to think about his actions or every time he said he believed in the Empire or "Good soldiers follow orders.." he replayed the moment when he ordered the attack on Obi-Wan
10:14 To answer your question, no, the shields weren't upgraded or different. The droid popper was moving too fast and deflected off. It only passes through if you time and get the speed right.
Nah when he said Cody went AWOL I think he legit meant Cody just straight up left. It was pretty clear something was wrong and he was no longer comfortable being there. When he was saying "more clones seem to disappear around you" he's right. His entire team left him, and now Cody too.
@@wardlafferty5022 I feel like he will, since he doesn't appear with Rex and the boys in rebels. I agree with you, I would absolutely love to see him reunite with Obi. I just want him to see Rex again and have a warm brotherly embrace. At least once
The disappearing comment is a direct reference to the other members of the Bad Batch. Rampart only found out last episode that they weren't killed on Kamino and that they survived ie disappeared. So Cody essentially doing the same thing is what leads to the comment.
We hadn't seen that Separatist lady before, but she did Mention Mina Bonteri who we did meet in Clone Wars. She was the separatist senator who Padme and Ahsoka went to see. That's where Ahsoka met Mina's son Lux.
I think that what Cody says is yet another thing that he needed to hear. Others included: (Wrecker) "All that time, you didn't even try to find us 😠😡. We still would've taken you 😞."; (Hunter) "All you'll ever be to them, is a number 🤨😞."; (Omega) "You're still their brother Crosshair. You're my brother too 🥺😣😔."
17:40 Cody gonna join Howzer and participate in maybe a clone rebellion arc. *fingers crossed It's interesting because in Legends, Cody did stay with the Empire, actually helped train future stormtroopers with his combat experience from the clone wars. Not only that, but Cody was there when the first Death Troopers were conceived and built. I can't wait to see what happens for the rest of this season.
@ItsAPrimate notice how in this episode that when there was battle droids they chose to send only clones to take out the insurance and when it was over they sent storm troopers. Realistically the storm troopers aren't trained to fight against forces like the separatist battle droids. They sent the clones in to take care of the droids because that was what they were created to do. It's one of the reasons why the empire is phasing out the clone troopers they don't need an army of high-quality soldiers because the CIS is gone and the jedi order is gone. They need an army of people who are blindly loyal to the empire, that's where the storm troopers come in they were citizens who had to scrape by to survive during the clone wars, an the empire offered them a purpose and jobs to provide for themselves and their families. The even though the clones are the superior soldiers when it comes to combat the storm troopers are more loyal and easier to maintain.
Great reaction to a great episode. It was awesome to see Cody again. The trailers made me feel he would be with the Empire all the way, but he couldn'tstand the injustice of it. Probably been maturing the idea for some time. Now we need him to rekindle his friendship with Rex!
Some reactors are Taking it literally, but I wondered if Cody was still alive too. I think Cody Was kept out of the assassination plan. The law the clones in the Cafe were talking about would replace the Clones with Stormtroopers.
I think Rampart is rather commenting that a lot of clones around Crosshair are betraying the empire, thus Cody likely did the same. But I would not put Rampart above such jab, but I don't think that's the context here, rather "clone Loyalty" is being questioned across the board.
Tawni Awmes the governor is voiced by Tasia Valenza who voiced Shaak Ti in clone wars why she seemed familiar, was bugging me had to look it up right after the episode
Something to consider, Crosshair shoots the governor when Cody refused and in doing so he more or less saved Cody. After all, Grotten would have likely had Cody shot for insubordination, so Crosshair does what he always does and takes the shot.
I hope they retcon crosshair to be one of the deathtroopers from the beginning of rogue one. Be awesome to see him run with the empire the way Rex runs with the rebellion all the way through to episode 6.
I think Crosshair is beginning to question the Empire by the end of this episode. The way he asks why he won't be serving under Cody makes it seem like he really cared about Cody after their mission, and when he learns that he has gone AWOL you can see him really start to question things.
You can see that they use the clones to occupy more planets and then use (phase 1) stormtroopers to keep "peace and security". I also think that cody just run away bc they wouldn't kill him off screen.
I don’t think Cody went AWOL I think the empire threw him in a cell for not following orders, I think Rampart is just lying to Crosshair so he doesn’t retaliate
I think at this point most Clones don't know about the Chips they probably think they CHOSE to kill the Jedi and I imagine that eats Soldiers like Cody alive from the inside.
It seems to me that though the inhibitor chip caused cody to betray Obi-wan, it didn't minimize the impact Obi-wan left on Cody while he served under him. Obi-wan often sought diplomatic, peaceful solutions, so it's interesting that the very thing that awoke Cody to how wrong all of this was, was the disregard for his peaceful, diplomatic solution by the Governor. Obi-wan's tactics really rubbed off on Cody, and remained even after Cody's loyalty to Obi-wan was taken away.
For me it was the best episode since The Hera one .. Please do more like this .. Definitely made it better that omega daycare wasn't involved.. just a very good episode.. Sorry I tried to like omega i just don't . Whenever I see her in predicaments I'm hoping she gets killed off . But you know that's not gonna happen .. They could just use her less , all the episodes that we're good are without her being a focus or in it at all
I really think Cody just escaped. I hope when we see Cody next, he will be with Rex. Cody was racked with gilt. When Crosshair says the clones questioning the orders and Cross says they are as guilty as the Jedi, Cody's face flickers with pain. And when Cody says "good soldiers follow orders", he says it so casual, like it doesn't mean the same as when Cross, Tup and Wrecker (when the chip was activated) said those words, like it was a program in their heads. His conversation with Cody at the end is him saying, he is having trouble living with his choices.
Amazing episode 😍🔥 and the theories around this episode had been wild. From Crosshair saving Cody from not executing the Sepertist governor. To where Cody might go after going awol. I love the facts we are getting from so many people in the fandom. 😁😁😁 Cody pulling an Obi and trying a diplomatic ending just shows how much Obiwan rubbed off on him. 😳😭❤💔 (remembering order 66 right after saying that) I really want a Obiwan and Cody reunion now. We were going too in Kenobi but... Sigh. That's a topic I don't like 😓😫😤😭 Fun fact: In ledgens Cody went on serving the Empire in misery. He hated how recruits couldn't keep up with clones and thought them inferior. You know what's fucked up. They send in the clones and leave the stormtroopers in the back. Most likely just to kill em off.
Cody LEFT, he abandoned the empire. He wasn't killed. My guess is he is going to try to find Rex. I do wonder though, with Crosshair, if he was given two orders by two different parties which what would he do? If he wants to be a soldier and fight, he can be with bad batch and go on missions and fight the empire lol. If the empire ordered him to kill himself would he? Who knows.
That’s the thing though, bad batch ain’t really fighting the empire they’re just doing missions for Sid for money and such. Empire might be affected by it but that’s not their goal
@@ItsAPrimatee Yet they keep coming in contact with the Empire. Even so, he could still be a soldier on the missions Sid gives them. He would still be following Sid's orders. Hell, Crosshair could become a Bounty Hunter and follow orders from the contracts.
I don't think they killed Cody. If they had I don't think they'd keep it a secret. They would want to make an example pf Cody to all the other troopers. I like Cody having a doubts and realizing he's on the wrong side. Crosshair I don't think really cares.
Fucking love your content Prime🍃💨💯 Edit: just letting you know I haven’t seen your clone wars reactions, so I’m going to watch all of them. I’m just glad you’re caught up and you know what you’re talking about😁
You’re mentioned Star Wars Resistance a few times recently and while it definitely has a lighter more comedic vibe than the rest of Star Wars animation, there’s actually some good shit in Season 2. It feels like Early Rebels mostly, more kid-friendly, but as with every Dave Filoni joint it has some bangers later on. The biggest turn off is the protagonist being a messy goof in literally in every area of his life apart from flying. In the cockpit he’s insane, an ace born for it, outside of it tho he’s a sheltered rich kid who fucks up constantly. He’s written to be an annoying f**k-up. But yeah, there’s some crazy space combat eps in Season 2, really great side-characters and some juicy lore connections that makes the Sequels sit a little better. (The show also has my all-time favourite Ex-Imperial and a GREAT new Bounty Hunter.)
Just something to think about. A lot of very popular reactors get episodes up very quickly after the new episodes drop. The Mandalorian Season 3 is GOING TO HUGE in the ratings! Creators like Mary Cherry will have a new reaction video up between 6-10 hours after a new episode drops. Not saying to be that quick, but new episodes will drop at midnight on Wednesday. It should help you out in the algorithm if you were able to do your reaction and get the video up on Thursday or Friday. Just a thought to think about as March 1 comes up. Also know that the whole month of March is going to have both Bad Batch and Mandalorian episodes dropping new on the same day. Later in the summer you'll be caught up in John Favreau and Dave Filoni live TV show universe to be able to watch the new Ahsoka series along with us too. The other good thing about you doing this with us at the same time is we like you don't know what happens next. The discussion here now opens up to speculation discussion without having fears of spoilers leaking.
Mary Cherry is generally regarded as a fake clout chaser by a lot of people. That kind of person pumps out content just to be first. Primates material is better edited and he has an actual reaction of someone who's emotionally invested and has paid attention. Its a substantial difference.
@@Jayngfet Still doesn't change the fact that Mary has a huge channel and that her stuff pops up in my feed right when shows I like start releasing episodes. That's the point I was making on how the algorithm works.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT SEASON 2 OF BAD BATCH SO FAR?!
Love It!
It changes everything it’s insane
10/10!
loving it! this episode is my favorite episode so far!
This episode... WOW. It's SO GOOD.
Cody wasn't being manipulative, he was genuinely trying to negotiate with her, like Obi-Wan would have done
Obi would have been proud of him.
@@zomish13 the fact it's implied he thinks he willingly "killed" Obi Wan is heartbreaking tbh
@@andreaswong8829 Cody didn’t care, He didn’t even try to fight it. Cody is a bitch, lol
@Andreas Wong I hope he gets his chip removed and I hope he finds out he didn't kill Obi before he dies.
Yes ofc they adapted to the Jedi mindset most of the time so yes he was genuinely trying to
Love the redemption for Cody.

I’ve said this on other reactions but I’m honestly just so impressed by the creators’ ability to give so much emotion and depth to the pauses between words, glances between characters, and every other unspoken thing. Paired with Kevin Kiner’s hauntingly expressive score, we are able to really feel the weight of each character’s inner demons/conflict. So many other shows would rush through “difficult” subject matter, jump from fight scene to fight scene, or over-explain everything, but with The Bad Batch, I’m continuously impressed by the level of restraint and maturity Filoni’s team displays in its writing/animation. Well done ❤
I don’t think Cody was killed, I think he just simply left the Empire because of his conflict on the whole imperial occupation situation

He said he "went AWOL", that means absent without leave, or put simpy: leaving without permission. He's not dead, he left.
@@matthewjohns4415 at least that's what Rampart said. I understand people being skeptical. The Empire isn't exactly trustworthy

Crosshair & Cody are absolutely *OUTSTANDING* clone-duo of The Galactic -Republic- Empire era. *Good Soldiers Follow Orders.*
#Clonesforlife 🤍🖤
They said he went AWOL not killed. We'll see cody again.

Going "AWOL" means desertion. Cody most likely ran away and i believe he will return next episode or sometime later this season.
The hint of the old clone wars theme during when Cody was giving the mission briefing in the ship 😢
Cody wasn’t killed or taken by the empire, if that didn’t happen, Rampart would of admitted it.

Nova really carried
Shout out to the sound design. The sound of crosshair's sniper bolt traveling up the tank cannon 😤🤌
Don't worry, Primate, Cody just left. He's still alive somewhere in the galaxy. Hopefully he reunites with Rex
I hope Cody stays clear of the clone rebellion…I want Cody has a chance to reconcile with Obi-Wan.
@@wardlafferty5022 I feel like he will, since he doesn't appear with Rex and the boys in rebels. I agree with you, I would absolutely love to see him reunite with Obi. I just want him to see Rex again and have a warm brotherly embrace. At least once

The disappearing comment is a direct reference to the other members of the Bad Batch. Rampart only found out last episode that they weren't killed on Kamino and that they survived ie disappeared. So Cody essentially doing the same thing is what leads to the comment.
Honestly this was probably my favorite bad batch episode so far. Definitely top 3
RIP Nova and Whyler. Died trying to bring order to the galaxy
We hadn't seen that Separatist lady before, but she did Mention Mina Bonteri who we did meet in Clone Wars. She was the separatist senator who Padme and Ahsoka went to see. That's where Ahsoka met Mina's son Lux.
Empires always confuse peace with occupation. This episode is an example. As Ukrainian I know what it is... Thanks for the reaction

I can't wait to see what happens for the rest of this season.
I don't want a redemption arc for Crosshair
Finally... at last.. Cody finallu got his Disney Canon post Order 66 appearance
I've seen a theory that Crosshair is literally a sociopath. Like, emotions aren't really a deciding factor for him except in super rare circumstances.
I could see that
Cody deserted the Empire. He's still alive and away from the Empire. AWOL - Absent Without Leave.

Yeah, use the clones for the hard battles and then put the Stormtroopers there to occupy the place and make them the face of the empire.
Cody has gone AWOL. That means he's deserted, not been imprisoned.
5:51 😢 that moment of silence right there. Cody feels guilty about betraying Obi Wan.😭 Good Soldiers Follow Orders
I don’t think Cody went AWOL I think the empire threw him in a cell for not following orders, I think Rampart is just lying to Crosshair so he doesn’t retaliate
I think at this point most Clones don't know about the Chips they probably think they CHOSE to kill the Jedi and I imagine that eats Soldiers like Cody alive from the inside.
I thought that Tawni Ames was the same actress that did Ventress voice but no they just sound similar.
It seems to me that though the inhibitor chip caused cody to betray Obi-wan, it didn't minimize the impact Obi-wan left on Cody while he served under him. Obi-wan often sought diplomatic, peaceful solutions, so it's interesting that the very thing that awoke Cody to how wrong all of this was, was the disregard for his peaceful, diplomatic solution by the Governor. Obi-wan's tactics really rubbed off on Cody, and remained even after Cody's loyalty to Obi-wan was taken away.
1:19 crosshair did have a bunch of civilians executed in season 1
I love watching enhanced clones
For me it was the best episode since The Hera one .. Please do more like this .. Definitely made it better that omega daycare wasn't involved.. just a very good episode.. Sorry I tried to like omega i just don't . Whenever I see her in predicaments I'm hoping she gets killed off . But you know that's not gonna happen .. They could just use her less , all the episodes that we're good are without her being a focus or in it at all
I really think Cody just escaped. I hope when we see Cody next, he will be with Rex.
Cody was racked with gilt. When Crosshair says the clones questioning the orders and Cross says they are as guilty as the Jedi, Cody's face flickers with pain. And when Cody says "good soldiers follow orders", he says it so casual, like it doesn't mean the same as when Cross, Tup and Wrecker (when the chip was activated) said those words, like it was a program in their heads. His conversation with Cody at the end is him saying, he is having trouble living with his choices.
Dude Cody is not dead. Rampart said he went AWOL. Cody finally ran away from the empire.
He says AWOL, (absent without leave), so I assume he left. Possibly to join up with Rex/other Rebels or just to go into hiding.
Theory: Rampart murdered Cody. The officer probably reported Cody’s hesitation to follow orders, and a “Good Soldiers Follow Orders”
I don’t think they’d kill someone as important as Cody offscreen
Amazing episode 😍🔥 and the theories around this episode had been wild. From Crosshair saving Cody from not executing the Sepertist governor. To where Cody might go after going awol. I love the facts we are getting from so many people in the fandom. 😁😁😁 Cody pulling an Obi and trying a diplomatic ending just shows how much Obiwan rubbed off on him.
😳😭❤💔 (remembering order 66 right after saying that) I really want a Obiwan and Cody reunion now. We were going too in Kenobi but... Sigh. That's a topic I don't like 😓😫😤😭
Fun fact: In ledgens Cody went on serving the Empire in misery. He hated how recruits couldn't keep up with clones and thought them inferior.
You know what's fucked up. They send in the clones and leave the stormtroopers in the back. Most likely just to kill em off.
I really want Rampart and Grotton to die at the hands of a clone. One can dream ok?
Yes, thank you!!
It feels like Cody feels guilty for turning on obi wan.. so sad
i am sure those troopers cody sees coming off the shuttle is stormtroopers not clone troopers
AWOL means he's left and they don't know where he is lol
They totally killed Cody and or imprisoned him similar to Gregor for treason. :((
Cody LEFT, he abandoned the empire. He wasn't killed. My guess is he is going to try to find Rex. I do wonder though, with Crosshair, if he was given two orders by two different parties which what would he do? If he wants to be a soldier and fight, he can be with bad batch and go on missions and fight the empire lol. If the empire ordered him to kill himself would he? Who knows.
That’s the thing though, bad batch ain’t really fighting the empire they’re just doing missions for Sid for money and such. Empire might be affected by it but that’s not their goal
@@ItsAPrimatee Yet they keep coming in contact with the Empire. Even so, he could still be a soldier on the missions Sid gives them. He would still be following Sid's orders. Hell, Crosshair could become a Bounty Hunter and follow orders from the contracts.
I think Cody will be instrumental in thr Clone revolt which is being foreshadowed. & I think he's going to die in the process
I don't think they killed Cody. If they had I don't think they'd keep it a secret. They would want to make an example pf Cody to all the other troopers. I like Cody having a doubts and realizing he's on the wrong side. Crosshair I don't think really cares.
I belive he is gone they did say he went AWOL (Absent without official leave). Dont think they are lying but they might be.
If 1 rotation is 1 day, I think Crosshair wouldn't survive 32...
Plenty of fish around don’t know what he drank though
Fucking love your content Prime🍃💨💯
Edit: just letting you know I haven’t seen your clone wars reactions, so I’m going to watch all of them. I’m just glad you’re caught up and you know what you’re talking about😁
im 100% that cody left the empire and ran away...i dont think they did anything to him.
Good soldiers follow orders but not all have to follow orders to be a good soldier rip five's
Can’t wait for your reaction to episode 7 it’s insane😂
It’s not even put ??
How have you seen it?
I know I was joking
Time traveller spotted
Cody ran. I don't think they would have killed him off-screen.
AWOL just mean Cody left... he wouldn't have said that if they caught him or killed him
15:08 ok, but what was the difference with the Republic ? :)
You’re mentioned Star Wars Resistance a few times recently and while it definitely has a lighter more comedic vibe than the rest of Star Wars animation, there’s actually some good shit in Season 2.
It feels like Early Rebels mostly, more kid-friendly, but as with every Dave Filoni joint it has some bangers later on.
The biggest turn off is the protagonist being a messy goof in literally in every area of his life apart from flying. In the cockpit he’s insane, an ace born for it, outside of it tho he’s a sheltered rich kid who fucks up constantly. He’s written to be an annoying f**k-up.
But yeah, there’s some crazy space combat eps in Season 2, really great side-characters and some juicy lore connections that makes the Sequels sit a little better.
(The show also has my all-time favourite Ex-Imperial and a GREAT new Bounty Hunter.)
Just something to think about. A lot of very popular reactors get episodes up very quickly after the new episodes drop. The Mandalorian Season 3 is GOING TO HUGE in the ratings! Creators like Mary Cherry will have a new reaction video up between 6-10 hours after a new episode drops.
Not saying to be that quick, but new episodes will drop at midnight on Wednesday. It should help you out in the algorithm if you were able to do your reaction and get the video up on Thursday or Friday. Just a thought to think about as March 1 comes up.
Also know that the whole month of March is going to have both Bad Batch and Mandalorian episodes dropping new on the same day. Later in the summer you'll be caught up in John Favreau and Dave Filoni live TV show universe to be able to watch the new Ahsoka series along with us too.
The other good thing about you doing this with us at the same time is we like you don't know what happens next. The discussion here now opens up to speculation discussion without having fears of spoilers leaking.
Mary Cherry is generally regarded as a fake clout chaser by a lot of people. That kind of person pumps out content just to be first. Primates material is better edited and he has an actual reaction of someone who's emotionally invested and has paid attention. Its a substantial difference.
@@Jayngfet Still doesn't change the fact that Mary has a huge channel and that her stuff pops up in my feed right when shows I like start releasing episodes. That's the point I was making on how the algorithm works.
AWOL, it means he deserted
