Curate, connect, and discover
Odd Squad came out when I was starting Pre-k. I remember my younger self would race to the living room after school in order to not miss any new Season 1 episodes. When I got older, Season 2 came out. I will always appreciate Season 1, but I can never be thankful enough for Season 2.
I had a really bad teacher in 2nd grade, like to the point I didn't ever want to go to school. (Which was rare for me back then-I used to love going) (I actually ended up moving schools cause of that teacher, but that's a story for another day)
One of the only things. that could make me feel some semblance of happiness during that time were new and reruns of Season 2 Odd Squad episodes.
I love Otto, Olive, and Oscar, nothing can beat the OGs, but I remember seeing Olympia, Otis, and Oona on screen being one of the few things that could cheer me up.
I have only seen some Season 3 and Season 4 episodes (mostly because im not the target demographic for the show anymore), but this anniversary has inspired me to finish both seasons 3 and 4. (I feel like I owe it to that scared little 2nd grader, ya'know?)
Point is, Odd Squad has been there for me, in both the good and bad. It was/is the first fandom I've ever been in. The world and characters inspired my love for other fandoms, and has inspired me to try writing fanfiction.
Odd Squad Forever!
