Re: the comparison of three viewing methods, if I wanted to write a comparison I would just copy Brian's, word for word! 100% agree with everything said...

This is long because I added my comparisons to the three platforms at the end. I half expected this to be an "aftermath" season premiere, like the latest Cobra Kai one was - at least to me. I was proven wrong though. We got a new, creepy looking Wesen with a cool power that leaves very gory wounds behind. This episode also had some great stuff with Juliette, from being a mom to Trubel, to a trooper when she needed to be, and let's not forget the flashback to Adalind being Juliette. I kinda forgot how that negligee looked and I thank the writers for reminding me. I loved Trubel stepping up here since Nick isn't currently a Grimm. Taking it upon herself to bike all the way to the trailer so she could study made me feel proud for some reason. That cliffhanger was something else too, but I really don't think Renard would be taken out in the season premiere. ______________________________________________________________________________________ I did a comparison of all three and, in order, I would put Dropbox at #1, Google Drive at #2, and Patreon player at a very distant #3. Dropbox has the clearest picture, loads smoothly and immediately, and never stutters. From an image standpoint, the viewing box looks perfect and you, Dak, look like we're on a video call with really nice cameras. The only thing that doesn't look perfect is the lettering above the viewing box. Sitting at a normal distance, one wouldn't notice, but I wanted to really compare the three so I viewed them from one foot away from the screen. The only issue, which is really a non-issue, is the white outlines of the red letters are only smooth when horizontal and vertical; at angles and curves they stutter a bit. Again, nobody would normally notice that, and I only bring it up to show the differences to the other ones more precisely. Google Drive is very close to Dropbox, but at close comparison it is just a tiny, tiny less focused, but again, most won't notice. The letters are ever so slightly stuttery - to the point you'd only notice if you were going back and forth between tabs. The thing that is the most different from Dropbox is that, at least for me, there are four-five times during your opening comments and into the Dakara logo where it stops to load for a second or two. Could be just me, but it doesn't happen on anything else I use to view videos. Patreon player was noticeably blurrier than the other two, and I mean the whole thing: your cam, the viewing box, and the lettering looks very different quality-wise. Just to add, while I catch up with certain series', or rewatch older ones, I use Google Drive, since Dropbox expires after a time, and it's perfectly fine. Honestly, I wouldn't go to any extra trouble with the Patreon player. Hope that was helpful in some way, Dak. Thanks for the fun reaction.

That was the ending of the episode?

I didn’t have any issues with the inbuilt video player.

Season 4 is my absolute favourite of all 6. They totally flipped the script. I know I've said this before, but get ready for a really bumpy ride. Such a bingeable season this one. I am probably gonna come back and binge all your season 4 reactions after you finish .

Yeah, I like having the other options as well. :)

Pet peeve, but asystole (flat line) is not a shockable rhythm, and yet writers still persist in trying to make it one. I know, it looks and sounds all dramatic, even if it's totally incorrect, it's just one of those tropes that will always have me cringing.

Works fine although I don't particularly like the player (not your fault!). As long as you are still going to supply one or other (or both) of the links then I'm good (selfish of me I know, but then after all it is all about me!!!!)
