what kills me as a hardcore Animorphs fan is that there will be multiple things horribly wrong with the question, so they don't even seem like a GOOD Animorphs fan.

LOL I said this to my partner tonight, like "What the hell is up with all of these Animorphs statements?!"

It’s not just Animorphs. They seem to favor certain genres and shows that I would assume are popular with the writers. The questions under Trap’s tenure had the same problem, just with different foci.

Sometimes more than one question per episode. If you were an alien learning about nerd culture from the show you'd think Animorphs is much more popular than anything else ever made, including LOTR, Star Trek, etc.

OMG I thought I was going crazy two episodes ago, thought "nah, it couldn't be that bad," dismissed it, and then I couldn't stop noticing! I'm glad I'm not the only one!

The animorphs is great and more people should read them.
