When i hear that airing episodes out of order is disrespectful to creators I can't help laughing, because someone (was it actually Zag? and, man, who allowed him then?) had sold the rights to broadcasters allowing them to air the episodes as they want.
Oh ffs anon you've got to be kidding me
I don't remember HBO releasing Game of Thrones out of order because guess what? They weren't asses!!!
Just because they allowed a channel to release their show (because guess WHAT?? They NEED channels to broadcast their show I know GROUNDBREAKING) doesn't mean said channel should do it as they please. If they're respectful to the creators and to the show aaand to their viewers then they respect the order they gave to their series
And don't talk to me about Zag because that man is probably what's been disrespecting the series the most, he's just there for the money. When I say "the creators" I mean Thomas and the writing team, not him
broadcaster master…. gloob spoils your brainrot childrens show? spoil their fun and take them off the air. all I ask in return is ladybug and chat noir’s miraculouses….
I normally don't mind so much watching ML episodes order when they air with some bizarre schedule.
Is it annoying? Yes, of course it is.
But I enjoy the show and enjoy talking about what happens in a new episode on discord.
This time though Gloob has grossly overstepped. In previous seasons I could watch episodes a little out of order because the plot was more lenient.
Season 5 is clearly different though. Every epiosde that we've seen so far has had a distinct progression to it. And I've thoroughly been enjoying it! There is coherent development happening! And I want to keep enjoying the season like that.
But now Gloob is on their bullshit again but it is so much worse. This is season that is breaking the monster of the week format for a more plot heavy storyline, but Gloob doesn't give a shit. They're literally going to jump half the season just so they can be the first to get out two new episodes! That is a MASSIVE amount of context to skip!
We've already seen how much can change withing a SINGLE episode this season, just imagine how much can change and develop between episodes 9 and 18! This is the season that the love square is shifting, and that's a lot of unknown space for that to happen.
So fuck you Gloob. That's just way too much. And all because you just want some clout for 5 minutes. Attention seeking bullshit.
If Gloob seriously goes through with this asshole behaviour and airs episode 18 way ahead of previous episodes, then I'm going to be ducking out of spoiler tags. I don't want to see any of that until the episode have aired in a normal order.
I love this show too much to let Gloob fuck up my viewing experience. This might be my favourite season so far and I want to watch it as closely as possible to the order the creators intended. The creators deserve at least that much respect for making a show that means so much to me.
Like can we even talk about Chat's major depression before springing into action? His room is a mess and he obviously had been sitting alone and depressed since he cataclysmed HM. AND THEN the writers think its okay for him to almost cataclysm dark owl because he was heartbroken???? This boy needs therapy and L O V E. Please let him process his pain
The only thing more deluded than Gloob airing episodes 12 and 18 out of order and on the same day back to back... would be if they put 18 first and then 12. Lol.
Sorry I'm uncultured and I found your post through tumblr's 'you liked simular posts' but who's gloob and what's plusplus??
Heya!
They are the TV networks that broadcast Miraculous in Brazil and Ukraine respectively!
For instance ML is broadcast by TF1 (kids program is TFou) in France, Disney Channel in the US, RTS (kids program is RTS kids) in Switzerland, Gloob in Brazil, Plusplus in Ukraine, etc.
We're talking a lot about Gloob and Plusplus because they tend to release episodes out of order - Plusplus is infamous for releasing the S3 finale before the episodes "Chat Blanc" and "Félix" were out worldwide, and they announced they'd release the S4 finale early last season while we were still missing a bunch of episodes - thankfully the episodes weren't ready and it didn't happen, but fans were angry when they announced they wouldn't respect the order.
Gloob is infamous for sharing too many spoilers and too revealing/spoilery trailers, and wanting to be the first TV channel to release ML episodes worldwide. So they'll do anything to be first, and if they aren't first, they'll do anything they can to ruin the experience for the fans, be it by sharing as many spoilers as they can, or releasing episodes widely out of order to make sure that the channels who respect the order won't release episodes before them.
The reason we're talking about them a lot lately is because this season the order is very important and there's been a consensus at the start that the channels would release the episodes in order. Gloob also said they'd respect that. The problem is that TFou, the French channel, released a few episodes first in a very short period of time (episode 4-5-6-7-8-9, while Gloob had released 1-2-3 first). TFou made the mistake of skipping episode 5 but it was released a week after - so it was annoying but not that big of a deal.
Gloob got angry that they weren't first to release all these episodes, so to ensure they'd be first next time, they've decided to break the consensus of respecting the order and released last week 2 episodes out of order: we had the first 9 episodes and they've decided to release episodes 12 and 18 on the same day, which breaks the order a lot. Tomorrow, they'll be releasing episode 16, continuing to ruin the experience for the fans (and for the Brazilian fans, because they haven't broadcast yet some earlier episodes). So people are rightfully angry with them hahaha
The reason we're talking about Plusplus is because some Gloob fans have accused the people who are pissed at gloob for releasing the episodes out of order of only being angry at Brazil. Which is obviously stupid and untrue as we're angry at the TV network, so we're reminding them that we were equally pissed off at Plusplus (so a Ukrainian TV network) when they released the finale early.
I hope that was a clear summary of who these TV networks are and the latest drama 😅
