Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 10 Not Now, Charlie!

Charlie always likes telling jokes to the other engines. He tells Thomas, Henry and Percy a joke about an elephant which they all find hilarious. But then Charlie is on his way to pick up some trucks when he meets an elephant on the track. He goes and tells the other engines but they think it is a joke then Charlie goes to the Sodor Search and Rescue Centre and only Harold is there and believes him. The episode is kind of good Charlie is not telling all baby jokes anymore. Rating 7/10 

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 9 The Switch

Luke meets the Earl of Sodor and his private engine Millie for the first time. The two engines deside to switch jods for the day. It was great to see Millie The Earl and inside Ulfstead Castle for the first time in the season. And that Mille is the first female narrow gauge engine in the show. Rating 10/10   

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 8 Luke's New Friend Review

It is dusk at the Blue Mountain Quarry and Rheneas and Luke decide to race each other to the crushing shed. On the way, Rheneas has to stop sharply to avoid hitting an yong dear. Luke Wants his friends to work quitly in a big nosie quarry. This episode is the first to have the exact same cast in both the UK and US. It was nice to see Luke Merrick Owen Skarloey Rheneas Sir Handel Peter Sam Rusty agian since Blue Mountain Mystery. Ratting 5/10

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 7 Henry's Hero Review

Henry and Hiro have pick up their heavy train and set off for the docks. As they made their way across the island, black smoke starts to billow from Hiro's funnel. Henry notices the dark smoke and alerts Hiro and finds out they have taken some bad coal.It was good to see Duck agian who has not made a cameo since season 12. And Hiro gets in a Episode he has not had a cameo since season 15. Ratting 10/10

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 6 Steamie Stafford Review

When Stafford observes some children cheering for Thomas, but as he rolls silently past, they do not cheer for him. Instead, Stafford overhears the children saying that it is strange he does not make any sounds. This upsets Stafford who begins to wish that he could make steam engine sounds like the other engines. So Thomas and Percy try to help him. Not the best episode in the season so far but it was good to se Stafford since he came into the show in season 16. Ratting 7/10   

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 5 Calm Down Caitlin Review

Vicarstown Bridge is closed for the night she heads towards Tidmouth Sheds. But she will not calm down so she takes the mail for Percy. And takes the flying kipper for Henry. It was good to see the new Vicarstown Bridge and the new Ulfstead Castle and to see Caitlin and Conner in a episode. Ratting 9.5/10

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 4 Gordon Runs Dry Review

 Gordon claims express trains are more important than local trains because local trains stop at every station.

But meanwhile, Paxton is pulling a stone train from the Blue Mountain Quarry. Before he reaches the junction to the main line, but the signal turns red. He avoids a near collision with Gordon, but one of the rocks from his train bounces off Gordon's boiler. But Gordon hurries away to stay on time. Gordon's boiler begins to run dry. Ratting 6/10

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 3 Wayward Winston Review

When Sir Topham Hatt decides that the bumpy stretch of track must be repaired as soon as possible and he inspects the workmen's progress in Winston. He is still unable to operate Winston properly. But then Sir Topham Hatt forgets Winston's handbrake but this time, Winston does not remind him buecuse he always forgets to remind him and he starts to roll away. One of the best episodes this season and that Topham still has no idea how to drive him. Ratting 10/10  

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 2 Scruff's Makeover Review

Plot

Scruff a dirty engine is sent to the Sodor Steamworks to be repainted but when he goes back to the dump he wants to say clean so he goes out to find a new job.

It was okay but not the best episode of the season so far. But Scruff has not been in a episode since season 14 so that was a good thing.

Rating 4/10

Thomas & Friends Season 17 Episode 1 Kevin's Cranky Friend Review

Plot

When Cranky is being overworked at the Docks Sir Topham Hatt asks Kevin to asist him.

Not the best way to start a season. But i like how Kevin and Crancky work together.
