User blog:The Smarter, Wiser King Dedede/My problem with No Laughing Matter

From what I've seen, No Laughing Matter is a somewhat mixed episode. Sorry, but I don't like this episode, and here's why:

First off, the beginning of this episode is VERY montagey. We first get a montage of Luan pranking her siblings, one-by-one. Then later, we get a montage of her moping and surprising her siblings by NOT pranking them, one-by-one ALSO.

But by far my biggest problem is Luan. The entire episode revolves on Luan quitting comedy because her siblings dislike it. Keep in mind that Luan has a huge following her love her comedy, as shown in Making the Case. And she decides to give up comedy because her siblings, a VERY small minority, dislike her comedy. To me, this implies that Luan can't take ANYONE disliking her comedy. Most people don't know this but it absolutely irks me when I see people who are unable to criticism. And you know what the sad part is? The episode STILL could've been salvaged from there. It could have been about Luan learning that just because a minority dislikes your work, doesn't mean you should give up on it altogether, especially if you've got tons and tons of fan who do enjoy your work and want to see you continue. That's a great moral that I rarely see in any form of media! But instead, her siblings feel like THEY'RE in the wrong for disliking her comedy...and instead it's them trying to get Luan back to doing comedy instead of herself.

That's why I dislike this episode.
