User blog:AustinDR/Thoughts on Lynn-er Takes All

So, with this episode. I did like some aspects of it. Overall, as for whether this redeems Lynn in my eyes....eh, kinda? In this episode, after the kids get tired with Lynn always gloating whenever she wins a board game, they decide to take her down. Now, with this episode, Lynn was pretty insufferable, more so than usual to accentuate the fact that she is insufferable when it comes to her victories. And then when she loses that one time, she flips out. She takes her competiveness much too far than before, culminating in them purposefully throwing the game (which Leni of course takes seriously). When they tell Lynn about their intentions, she does apologize for being annoying, and promises to do better. Well, she does still gloat, albeit not in their faces, so I guess that's the first step?

Overall as for whether this is a dud or a blast to end this week of episodes....it's a mixed bag for me. It's not a boring episode, but it's not really great either because Lynn is pretty irritable for most of the episode, especially when she lost that one board game. Overall, my opinion on Lynn hadn't really changed much, but I do like how she did apologize for being insufferable (even though that's slightly mitigated later).

Final score: 

3 stars out of 5
