Agreed. That point about Todd being a brilliant psychologist reminded me of their bizarrely off-the-mark classification of him previously as 'evil for evil's sake - someone who just likes making others suffer' - that's not verbatim but I'm 96% sure that was the wording. Tons of people in the comments were disagreeing on that, myself included, and I just don't get how they can come away with such a warped perception of the character.

Some of the things mentioned here are too much of a stretch (like a book report that needs to make more connections to get the grade) and a few just didn't make sense to me. Todd being Jesse's evil analogue is a great observation but you said that Todd keeping the tarantula as a pet reflects his creepy nature, contrasted with Jesse not harming the beetle he picks up—those could just as easily be reversed! Todd has cared for, protected (as much as tarantulas need protection!) and looked after the spider, and a beetle could be described as 'creepy' or a number of undesirable adjectives. This was just the one example that made me decide to bring it up, so listed alone it likely seems like nit picking but overall there's too strong of a 'homework' feel to these videos. I'm too tired to try to reword that until it properly conveys what I mean, but it's why I don't watch these vids to the end while other channels' I'm hungry for more even after 30 mins.
