Re: If a Lazytown S5 was made by the people who own LZT, what would be your reaction?
The idea of "it's just not the same" is valid. All that means is that they dislike whatever has changed, but can't really say why. On paper, it's all there, but there's just something... missing. What's missing in these cases is the "x factor." Though not exactly definable, the idea of an x factor is very real. Using the Chloe vs. Julianna example above, Julianna's performance as Stephanie had an x factor to it. Can you really say what it was? You can explain around it, but at the core there's something that you can't quite put your finger on that really gave it a pizzazz. Stefan Karl has an x factor as Robbie too. They're not the only ones either, there are plenty of individuals who have that special something. LazyTown as a whole had an x factor to it, though more some times and less other times in the series' run. It's the missing piece of the puzzle in the saying, "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts." If a new incarnation of LazyTown doesn't have "it," whatever "it" is, people will notice, and will say things like "it's just not the same."
