Meow Ears Up Episode 1

P'James is back and HAPPY !

God, I loved seeing James again since The Effect. Sure, his character is really silly, and -- a cat -- but I can look past that cause it is James and I love him so freaking much. The first episode was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Sure, it was pretty predictable with some cliche tropes, and seeing a person acting like a cat is a bit cringey, but I think I can get over that initial shock of it just cause I actually really did like it. Although him acting like a cat is strange, I do appreciate that he did cat-like things: being curious about things that hung, playing with cat toys, rubbing up against Dermdem, destroying the house over a fly, and some other good characteristics. I think James is playing his part well -- by being the cute and clumsy and curious cat. Gap doesn't seem like the worst actor ever, however, I wish he would play up more with his character. There's a point in this episode where he turns away from Meow cause he finds his heart beating super fast, and it felt totally out of character because Gap has been playing Dermdem kind of stoic and not as exaggerated as I think it needs to be. Hopefully, his acting gets to where it needs to be. Overall, a decent first episode, I'm excited for next week, hopefully, we'll get to see the GL couple!!
