The only thing I really dislike about it is, how Mr. McLeish is treated here. Of course the whole point of the episode is, that fur/hair is not at all that important and that all that matters is, that you remember, that you are not defined by your looks, but by your personality. However, on the other hand it's "oh, funny, McLeish is confident and cares now about the pound? Oh no! Let's take it away, making sure he doesn't feel all too self-conscious." Very funny indeed /s.
Yes, I know, no one should care as much, but I just can't but feel unhappy, when the comedy lies in having a character go through all that because of the funny. What is a kid to learn, then? When you threaten someone with your self-confidence, though all you do is be better, then you should not have it? Idk. I just dont like it.
Rest of the episode is good.
The lesson in it's self is good, but the way they treat McLeish is confusing.
