The Listener had an Unaired pilot!!

Some of the actors and plot lines are the same but it's very different to the final product.

Rather than paramedics, Toby and Oz are orderlies??

Toby has a best friend from foster care who knows about his gift??

After all this time it's exciting to see new (or new to us!) footage for this show 😊

Hi again! Finished S4 today (took me a second). I liked it, especially Toby's situation in the last episode. However, as time goes by and there's absolutely no peep about Toby's mother at all, the more convinced I become that the resolution of that storyline won't be satisfying, which is unfortunate. I do understand that the writing room changed, but still, that's a very big thing to just shove aside. The Listener has issues with impact in general, which isn't unique to this show, but it's frustrating either way.

I don't know when I'll continue watching, because it's gonna be rough without Alvin 😞 I still have one episode left with him, though.

All in all, a solid season, I'll definitely be coming back to it and rewatching my favourite moments

I won't spoil but you're on the right track about it being unsatisfying lol. They set up so many cool things in season 1 and it still bothers me they were just dropped! I've been watching the Umbrella Academy with Colm Feore who played Ray in season 1 and thinking about how he just randomly disappeared. Why would Toby stop visiting him? He's the only one who knows about his past. And he was such a great father figure for Toby, they could have really expanded on that. And he's a great actor.

Sometimes I think about the random plot line in S2 as well, where Toby was "dying" from using his powers too much. They dropped that out of nowhere too. The writers basically didn't know what they were doing lol. Shame as S1 was such perfection.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the series regardless! At least we get plenty of Toby running around helping people.

Hi!

I just wanted to say, I'm so happy I found this blog. Found out about The Listener a couple of weeks ago after falling down the Peter Stebbings rabbit hole and thought the fandom was dead and gone. Currently in the middle of S4, so I didn't risk scrolling through the entire blog, haha

Hi! Welcome!! I'm so glad this blog still brings people some joy haha. I don't regularly post anymore, sometimes the odd insta post since I follow the cast on there. I hope you look through the posts once you're finished with the show, enjoy and thanks so much for following 😊

You’ll excuse me if I still find it hard to believe. No, it’s fine. It’s a common reaction. The Listener - s03e01 The Bank Job
