Well it's been a minute! This time on Fate, we take a look at Terra being a wet blanket, well written and well acted emotional intimacy, a horse girl (gender neutral), and a girlboss (derogatory).

Time to return to some Teen Drama(TM) involving Bloom and a very valid complaint from Sky. Also the Trix finally decide to show back up and cause some havoc at Red fountain!

Oh no, club kids! In the 4 (holy crap) months since our last episode, Tecna has lost all sense of logic and is trying to kill a man! We also run into Headmistress Griffin for some reason and the Pixies are actually plot relevant! Unfortunately, this is a mostly filler episode and they don't actually help that much. Also a shocking amount of PSA's. Please get vaxxed and wear your masks.

The group is invited to the reopening ceremony of Red Fountain, which includes some racing, dragons, gladiator fights, and a shapeshifting arena. But the Trix are back to their old... tricks. Also we get properly introduced to Helia, a man who's relation to Saladine is poorly explained. Oh, and there's a manticore. Thanks, Darkar.

Live from the Alfea Courtyard, it's a delightful (at least to Brendan) puppet show put on by Livvy! We just get back to Alfea and a weird monolith decides to show up on school grounds, rude. We meet a new teacher, have all the girls go gaga over him, and have a strong discussion about a REALLY clunky line. Also some backstory and another party. Remember to rate, comment, and subscribe!

It's newt your typical episode, folks! After Brandon and Stella fall down a giant hole, the crew has to decide whether to find their friends or rescue the focus of the season. Skink you know which one they choose? Iguana tell you but I want to leave some surprises. Meanwhile, Darkar continues to monitor (lizard) the crew and keep not letting the Trix out. What's up with that? On the whole, this episode did newt disappoint.   Axolotl. Remember to rate, comment, and subscribe! Follow us...

After a brief snafu we're back on track! Snap on your climbing gear, because this week, it's time to stage an underground rescue! Hope y'all like caves! More importantly, we deal with 4Kids making a completely unnecessary change that leaves us incredibly confused as to why it was done.

In an unplanned yet not entirely unexpected turn of events, some technical difficulties cause us to bring out a bloopers episode! Just like this episode description, it's a little short but it gets the job done. Thanks for sticking with us and see you in a couple weeks!

After an unintentional month hiatus, we return with episode 28! Where... not a lot happens. Half the episode is catching new viewers up on what they missed last time and the other half is spent breaking the Trix out of their own personal hell, learning WizGiz has retractable teeth, and talking about literally ANYTHING but Winx Club.

Season 2 is upon us, club kids, and we’re starting off with a bang! A completely unrelated scene featuring brand new characters and then about 15 additional minutes of essentially filler! We meet Aisha and one of the gimmicks of the season, pixies. A beginning of the term party, catching up with our girls, and Bloom gets a prophecy (at least in 4Kids). We’re back, bb!

"We're in the endgame now." Dr. Strange, Infinity War, 2019 In the home stretch, we have it all! Rushed character development, breaking criminals out of jail, Stella becoming a poltergeist to get her way!

Approximately 2/3rds of the way through the show, things get Heavy! Fate proves it's TV-MA rating when we meet Stella's mom and find out Bloom's backstory (or do we?).

The final battle is upon us! Who will come out on top, the Winx or the Trix? Seeing as this is the finale of season 1, I think we have our answer! Stormy is a sky dancer for some reason and Kiko can fly now, I guess. We have a sweet victory party, a relaxing spa day, and a pretty sad scene involving everyone's favorite pumpkin, Myrta.

In today's episode, things hit a bit of a plateau; Bloom goes on a mind adventure into the depths of Lake Roccaluce while the Trix finally decide to make their final move on Alfea. There's also a metric ton of fight scenes and perhaps the most spectacular animation error in all of season one. Remember to rate, comment, and subscribe! Follow us on Twitter!

In our first recording since Tess moved, we get a little bit silly trying to get back in the swing of things. Enjoy listening to us slowly go bonkers as we close in on the final battle with the Trix! Bloom and Sky go on a scenic hike, Brandon and Stella make up... Again, and Brendan realizes his notes are incomplete! Can our hosts battle yawns and over a month between notes and recording to create an episode of your favorite mediocre podcast about Magic Teen TV? Find out this week! Remember...
