I think The Thomas Way is one of my favorite episodes not just of the CGI Series but I think in my top 5 all time favorite episodes. It had great narration from Mark Moraghan and Duck's Voice is Perfect for him Steven Kynman did a great job.Everything was perfect Voices, Animation, Music and the Flashback scene with Duck in London was epic. Didn't see that coming

The Thomas Way was just amazing, I'm not sure how they can top it. No other episodes have ever made me tear up in joy.I think the beginning of it is a great way to introduce Duck to the kids who might not know who Duck is. It's Great to see my Favorite Green Pannier/Engine back. If there was anything i would change is Put Oliver in place of Thomas to have Both Of the Great Western Engines back. It's nice to see Thomas and Friends getting "Right on track" So to speak.

Rating: 10/10

Tomorrow we have The Phantom Express. Percy and Stephen in the moat sounds funny.

S17 Ep.11 The Lost Puff

 This has to be one of the funniest episodes ever. Paxton was funny as heck in this episode, Along with some great other appearance by Characters like Thomas,Toby,Stephen,Victor and the one liner Stafford. The whole issue with Thomas losing his puff is very funny (Even though first hearing about it made it sound stupid.) Toby's Eyes when Thomas back's into him at the Water tower made him look like Derpy from My Little Pony. This Episode is great in every way. But to be truthfully honest. I didn't find the duck all that funny. Arc did a great job of animating the episode with The cloud, Track and camera angels. Even the Duck was nicely animated. My favorite Part had to be Stephen and Paxton's Conversion about the cloud was hilarious. Mostly the face Stephen makes.

  
Tomorrow we have is what I hope one of the best season 17 episodes yet. Including my Favorite engine Duck.

This was a good episode, even if Charlie was in it. Charlie's jokes have gotten a little better. It was nice to see Harold in Arc animation. It's definitely nice to see the engines doing work for a change. Percy is like me, I analyze a joke and pull out something wrong with it.

Another great episode, Though to me it felt a bit short. It was nice to hear Millie speak french and her whistle seems a lot like Lady's. It was great character development for Luke,Millie,and The Earl and seeing other Skarloey Railway engines. But I personally love the stand off with Millie and Luke and then all of a sudden Luke is happy. It was also nice to the Ulfstead Castle both inside and out of it. But it kinda gives away the ending of King of the Railway.

Well not the best episode ever. But still very good. Nice to see they no longer forget about new engines. It was a lot better the Percy's new friends. And I'm not sure but I think When Luke comes back Owen says LUKE who's back. But it also nice to see the drivers doing things other then being their hands. Luke's driver was soothing him when the dear left.

This was a great episode with nice writing and a great returning engine. Even though there were three strikes, at least they're not as annoying as the ones used in Seasons 13-16 and what rhyming was there? I'm sure like in Kevin's cranky friend and Blue Mountain Mystery, i'm sure they weren't intentional.

This was a good episode with Stafford as the main character. The sounds Stafford makes are funny and the part where Stafford winks at the kids it was a very good episode.
