An Update on The Rebuild

So, some of you may have seen the first episode of the Rebuild, which went up on Thursday, October 26th. Link here if you haven't read it yet. In that post, I covered the first four games of the season. Since then, there have been quite a few Henry's Universe Mode posts(including one today) and nothing of this series, despite the fact that my original goal was to rotate them both. I'm here today to explain why this hasn't happened and what the future of the series is.


As mentioned, the original plan was to rotate Henry's Universe Mode with The Rebuild, which, when combined with my South Park reviews, Dog League coverage and WWE pay-per-view previews/reviews, should form a nice variety of content. However, I underestimated how much time each post of the series might take. To shatter kayfabe, I began work on the first episode of The Rebuild about two weeks before it actually went live. It took me that amount of time to play the games, edit the content and get the thing out. That's obscene for what was supposed to be a very easy side series. I also just didn't enjoy making that content at all, partly due to the time it took but also just a straight lack of interest. I'm unsure what the fix for this problem actually is, but I do have an idea.


I have literally no clue when the second episode of The Rebuild is coming, but it will be the end of Season 1. You read it right- the end of Season 1. The plan moving forward is to make two posts for each season in the series, for as long as it last: the first will be the entire season, with a written summary, and the second will be the offseason in its entirety. Now, I don't know at all how long it will take me to play these games and write the end of season summary, but I do know that it will be quicker than what I was doing before. Hopefully, the more streamlined progression will also pique my interest, as I love long running series.


So that's that then. I'll let you know when the next episode of The Rebuild is close to completion, but don't expect it anytime soon. Until then, check out my other content and I'll see you next time.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...

American Dad "Stompe Le Monde" Review

You know, I once tried to make it in musical theater. If only I had watched this episode beforehand, I would've known I needed a leather jacket to truly make it. Alas, those dreams are for a more pretentious soul than mine. "Stompe Le Monde" is a wild episode of American Dad, one that starts with Stan's previously unknown uncle dying and ends with wanton destruction of many Sonic Drive-Ins. It's a crazy a journey as it sounds, one that left me just struggling to keep up. The family to use the new inheritance to travel to New York City, but Stan quickly blows the money on the rights to Stomp, which is apparently a real musical. The whole town of Langley is very excited to see the new show, but Stan has no idea what he's doing, never once hiring a director or even rehearsing. Why this only came up literally minutes before opening is anyone's guess. The Smith Family is forced to go on the run, and are attacked by many ferocious coyotes off-screen. In ye...

American Dad "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" Review

American Dad as a show is definitely not afraid to get a little freaky, and nothing is more evident than the existence of Rogu, Roger's tumor that became a character himself in "Persona Assistant". Rogu primarily works as a character because he stays in the background, but this week, he takes a starring role in one of the weirdest American Dad episodes to date. "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" has little in the way of traditional plot structure, and can only barely be considered an episode at all. It's more a collection of funny and bizarre skits, with a few running plot points that end up forming some sort of resolution. Steve wants to become a babysitter, but Francine says he's not ready, so he needs to prove himself to her. He does that by taking care of Rogu, as Roger is off for a night of NSFW activities. Steve is instructed not to let Rogu have candy or screentime, but violates both rules almost immediately. It turns out that Rogu multiplies w...
