Paggi was on for all of one day. The article implied two, so maybe she
shows up in a later isolated episode.

P.S. Paggi wasn't bad. I wouldn't be adverse to her replacing Storms,
who tends to annoy me more than not these days.

He was the annoying, pathetic court assistant - they really couldn't go
anywhere with that character, so dumping him is actually a good move.

But I find it really weird that they waited until the last second to
announce this - it makes it seem like either he walked, or they fired
him, seconds before filming season #2, which is weird as this seems like
a pre-planned move...

No s**t! He's been gone from soaps for so long, I assumed he retired
from acting.

As I pointed out in a quickly deleted Reddit thread, this is now Disney
Channel's longest-running live-action TV series, certainly by number of
seasons, and likely by number of episodes.

Go figure.

Has anyone else watched this yet? I know Arthur did.

My brother wouldn't have been interested (he still has Netflix), so I
didn't suggest it to him...

F**k this. It's fine if it's Tubi/Pluto/Freevee, but none of the others
should even have ads!

Yeah, are there any movies to be had in 2024, as pretty much nothing got
filmed in 2023?!
