Alice and Martha discuss Seamus in the fourth and fifth books. His storyline picks up speed as we meet his mom (or possibly a paid Craigslist actor??), see his passion for Irish Quidditch, and watch as he falls victim to the Daily Prophet propaganda.

Kaboom! It’s time to blow some things up! Alice and Martha deviate from the official Real Weirdos list to cover Me Cousin Fergus’s cousin, Seamus Finnigan (not Finnegan) in the first three books. His “arc” may leave something to be desired, but Harry’s still all about those Seamus winks! Please consider supporting us on Patreon!… Read more
Alice and Martha discuss Curious George, the Man in the Yellow Hat, and H.A. and Margret Rey. Though he may not have a tail, Curious George proves to be a much more endearing main character than Stuart Little, and thankfully, he would almost certainly beat Stuart in a fight! In this series, Alice and Martha reminisce… Read more
Alice and Martha discuss the first unnamed character to win the Real Weirdo, Canonical John Major! This isn’t a Fudge character study, and this isn’t a Scrimgeour character study, and it isn’t about the froglike man in the painting, either, although Mary GrandPre might lead us to believe otherwise.

Alice and Martha enter a world which is entirely E.B. White’s own, which may or may not be a good thing. Is Stuart a mouse or not? What ever happened to Margolo? And what exactly were the publishers thinking? Stuart Little is quite the canoe ride and is nothing like the sisters remembered. In this series,… Read more
Alice, Martha, and Jim Dale are back to finish discussing Neville. In the seventh book, Neville becomes–there’s no other word for it–cool. As usual, this is obvious to readers through his long hair, his casual demeanor, and his habit of calling people by the first syllable of their name. Neville’s arc is one of the best… Read more
Neville’s arc continues in the sixth book, though perhaps not quite as gracefully as readers might hope – there’s still plenty of falling on his back, hitting his head, and of course, lighting his own pants on fire! Though Dean might still find him hilarious, Harry, Augusta, and McGonagall seem to view Neville with a… Read more
I dink it’s time for our fifth Neville character study, in fact I’b sure id is! After Christmas on the closed ward, Neville takes an “alarming” and “unnerving” turn as he becomes a master dueler, which he shows off at the Department of Mysteries — a completely error-free enterprise on Neville and all the DA… Read more
