Hello, and welcome to the Littlest PetCast. Yeah, this episode was actually recorded a while ago, but I've been delaying uploading it. Partially because of real life stuff, but also because, well, this is it. In terms of this podcast's relationship to the show proper, this is the end. I go through my thoughts one last time in hopes of giving this show a good postmortem. Did I say everything I wanted to say? Maybe. Maybe not. But this is everything I'm going to say before I begin making my own personal season 5 to share with you. I'm not going to ask any more questions. I love you, and take care.

Hello, and welcome back to the final episode of Favorite Five, where we go over my favorite five episodes from the final season of the Littlest Pet Shop. While the show might not have ended on its own terms, they still produced some good episodes, and these, in my opinion, are the best.
Is it possible to balance between what writers want and what the company wants? Should the show have tried more? How many times do I repeat myself about the episodes? Can style also be a reason to like an episode? Why can I not remember a simple phrase like "spead your wings"?

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast: Favorite Five. In this episode, we look at my favorite five episodes of season 3, assuming I don't trip and fall over my own tongue.
Do I still need to justify me using Netflix order for season 3? How good is the show when it leans into its weirdness? Is there a "plot"? Should I consider recording on days when I work? Is me being constantly confounded pennence for me doing it in one take last time?

Hello, and welcome to another Favorite Five episode of the Littlest PetCast. In this episode, we are looking at season two, and the five episodes I would reccomend the most out of this season. Now the the show has gotten into its groove, it's time to see how well it grooves.
Do I just like fluffy content? How well does this show understand its characters? Can something be simple yet brilliant? Is it obvious which one is my favorite? How spot on are these names?

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. In today's bonus episode, we start looking at my personal favorite episodes of the show. I go through each season and pick my favorite five episodes (hence the title) and share with you why. Today, we go over season one. Since it's the first season, it is still trying to get its footing, but these episodes prove that it landed solidly.
How easy is it to bait me with romance? Does this show do female soliderity right? Did I let it slip which episode was close to being on my list? What happens when the creative team tries? Is an episode good if one section is demonstrably better than the other one?

It's been a while, but today on the Littlest PetCast, we are taking a look back at season 4. The highs, the lows, and everything in between. So join as I take a broad look into all of season 4 one last time.
Is this show better than nothing? How many food metaphores can I make? What is too weird for this show? Did the length make up for the delay? Will I hold myself to making season 5?

Hello, and welcome to this Bonus episode of the Littlest PetCast. In this episode, we decrescendo the music of LPS as we go over the songs of season 4, and thus the last of the songs. While season 4 might have the least amount of songs, I think the style carries it for the most part.
Would you buy dog food for the whole family? What do you just think is neat? How much do I not like "The Tiniest Animal Store"? How does one advertize fashion? What is the style to substance ration for this season?

WARNING: PARENTAL ADVISORY! PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR CHILDREN TO HEAR SWEAR WORDS! So here we are. The final name game for the final season. With returning faces, as well as a few new. But the game remains the same. I tell them the names of my episodes, and they have to guess if it's about the episode, or if I'm on a weird tangent. Funtimes were had by all. As well as some weirding out.
How often do people try to cheat at this game? Would Littlest Pet Shop fit in with the Seinfeld universe? Is opening a pizza place called "Big Caesars" a decidely uncool move? Do I know the most about Big Eyes amongst my group? Could I be good as a professional editor?

Hello and welcome to the Littlest PetCast. I today's episode we are rounding things out by going over the final episode of Littlest Pet Shop, "Littlest Pet Street", with part one written by Guy Toubes, part 2 written by David Shayne, and both parts directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, to help with the grand opening of the Littlest Pet Street, Blythe thinks to get internet sensation Felina Meow. In doing so, they have to go to Bermuda. While on their way back, a storm happens, stranding them on a deserted island.
Why is "It's The Pet Fest!" such a good point of comparison for this episode? Is there a secret island in the Atlantic we don't know about? How come the Soul Eater ending gets a lot of flack? Did I say everything I need to? Why is this episode such a mixed bag?
Thank you to everyone who has listened.

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. Before we end, I thought we should go back to the beginning with the episode "Blythe's Big Adventure", written by Julie McNally Cahil, and Tim Cahil, and directed by Joel Dickie. In this episode, Blythe and her dad move to Downtown City, Blythe discovers she can talk to pets, and through some inspiration and ingenuity, Blythe saves a failing pet shop.
Is time a strange function in fictional universes? How complicated is Michael Jackson as a topic? Was I proven right about the window thing? Does this episode show how complicated creativity can be? Could this show have reached even greater heights if it were allowed to stand just a little longer?

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. In this episode, we go over the last regular episode of the show before the finale, "Seeing Red", written by Julie McNally-Cahil and Tim Cahill, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Penny wants to become tougher, and thinks a red panda by the name of Scarletta can make that happen for her. Meanwhile, Blythe is writing a story for a school contest about her parents. However, when Roger stumbles upon it, he thinks it's about her and she's going to run away with someone tonight.
How boss is the sentence "Roger ate a salad in the dark"? Does Roger's behavior make sense? Did they confirm Blythe's mom is dead? Are my theories about Hasbro correct? Was this episode made out of recycled episode parts, or was it recycled into other episodes and then came about as a last hurrah?

Hello, and welcome to the Littlest PetCast. In today's episode, we are looking at the episode "LPS: The MOOsical", written by F.M. DeMarco, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Blythe helps Mrs. Twombly reunite with her old singing quartet, The Four Songbirds, through video chat. However, the shop is taking care of a nervous moose, who sings when she's nervous. Her singing is interpreted as disruptive to most, but Blythe hears it as a charming melody because she's one-quarter Canadian. Still, it'll be a problem if the other Songbird hear it.
Did I mess myself up with the Hammy/Amie thing? Would removing the hamster tubes spell disaster for Downtown City? Why can I not get over Kung-Fu Quilting? How does this episode make sense and still be weird beyond belief? Where would you move to to gain its land magic?

Hello and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. In today's episode, we look at the episode "Bake It 'til You Make It", written by David Shayne, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, a new sweets venue opens up, and Christie thinks she's done for. Blythe brings in her celebrity chef cousin, Bobby Destructo, to help. Meanwhile, Vinnie almost spills to Sunil's parents that Sunil isn't a doctor. In order to convince them that he is, Vinnie takes inspiration from one of his favorite shows, Dr. Abode MD, to make a video to show Dr. Nevla in action.
How many good punches does this episode have? Can pets change batteries? Can casual racism stop any conversation in its tracks? How willing was I to play in this episode's headspace? Could you Beat Bobby Destructo?

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. It has been a while. Today, we are going over the episode "Paint a Picture, It Lasts Longer" written by Nick Confalone, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Minka paints a picture, but doesn't like it. Blythe likes it and brings it to school. Minka asked her not to say it was her, but in doing so, she says she painted it herself. When the Biskits want their own version, things get even more complicate.
Am I going to be able to finish season 4 in a timely manor? How should you space your montages? What did you make of this episode? Did I over-react about the giving away Francois line? Why Big Eyes?

Hello, and welcome to a...Special episode of the Littlest PetCast. Today, we're going to be discussing the recent events surrounding the horrific death of George Floyd. It is not easy, it is not the kind of thing we usually talk about here, but it is the right thing to do. Please do what you can to stay safe, help out, stay sane, and be kind to others.

Hello and Welcome to another episode of the Littlest PetCast. In today's episode, enjoy as I talk in circles about the episode "On The Same Page", written by Roger Eschbacher, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Blythe reads that her mom might have lost the ability to speak to animals, and is worried about the same thing happening to her. Meanwhile, the pets engage in a battle of the sexes, which quickly devolves into stubbornness than anything.
Why haven't you just watched Re-Kan! yet? How do high schools cast plays/musicals? Can you understand semaphore? What is in character for Blythe? How does this episode handle the gender divide? Does my discussing off all of this help you understand my feelings like it does for me?

Hello, and Welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. In today's episode, we look over the episode "Race Team: Buttercream", written by Guy Toube, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Roger thinks Blythe is using her phone too much, so he challenges her to not use it for a week. It feels wrong to write "OK Boomer" after that sentence, despite the fact that it's perfectly applicable, because it's about Roger, one of the least Boomer-ish adults I can think of. Anyway, Vinnie and Sunil head to the bunny races, and Buttercream comes along. But when she hears a bell, she switches to a speedy bunny by the name of Flash McCarrot to the surprise of Vinnie and Sunil.
If you could talk to animals and want to not offend them, wouldn't you go vegan? How long has it been since we've seen Buttercream? Is it in character for Blythe to get caught up in something super hard? Do you have a reason as to why Buttercream has a split personality? Am I giving this episode too much of the benefit of the doubt by looking at it through the lens of Project Cyclops?

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. As I get back on the saddle, we go over the episode "It's a Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy World", with story by Julie McNally-Cahill, Tim Cahill, and Eric Rogers, teleplay by Eric Rogers, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steve Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Sunil is upset about everything. When a happy-go-lucky quokka named Peachy comes and tells him that happiness can be found in they city at the big smile, Sunil goes out to find happiness. Meanwhile, on a volunteer outing with Josh Sharp, Blythe loses her mom's journal, and with it her own happiness.
What are your thoughts on artisnial graffiti? Can you discount the idea of chickens just hanging out in China Town? Is there a better way to handle Peachy? Does the city work around these tubes? Where can I find a map of Downtown City?

Hello, and welcome back to the Littlest PetCast. In this episode, we go over the episode "A Doggie Biskit", written by David Shayne, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Eliza Biskits asks Blythe to help train her dog, and Zoe insists they do so. Meanwhile, Wiggles returns to LPS, and pushes the "knowledge" of a self-help book he really likes onto everyone, with Russell being the only one not to buy into it.
Could Landingham have been an old district name of Hong Kong? Does Alice continuing to point out how weird everything is make sense now? Am I looking at the show in ways that the creators don't intend to while simultaneously ignoring what they want me to look at? Why is is that a New York/New Jersey accent is the mutt accent? Does Eliza's terribleness explain Whitney's and Britney's terribleness?

Hello, and welcome to the Littlest PetCast. I hope you're staying safe out there. While you're protecting yourself from a pandemic, we are going over the episode "Go Figure!", written by F.M. DeMarco, and directed by Joel Dickie, Steven Garcia, and Mike Myhre. In this episode, Blythe goes to a convention to promote her new line of pet cosplay, Pawplay. She brings Sunil and Vinnie along, but of course, trouble brews. Meanwhile, a Zen Master grasshopper named Master Hop comes to LPS. Minka wants to learn the ways of Zen, but Master Hop is more intent of teaching Russell.
Can you look past ignorant evils? What are Sunil's powers? How do sidekicks work? What is the nature of this convention? Who can teach Blythe how to make her business as best as possible while still allowing Blythe to live her life?
