[froodle]

Welcome back to the Eerie, Indiana 2017 rewatch. This Friday, give your dog the side-eye and pray that doorknobs will be enough to save us. Ladies and gentlemen, keep the Canine Arrest Team on speed-dial, because it's time to watch... The Retainer!

Every now and then I'll try to plot the dates/time of the episodes but it never comes off. Meh. Eerie time.

I kind of go back and forth between looking up the actual weather in Indiana on an exact date and just lampshade hanging all over the place because time in Eerie is weird and errors are everywhere.

And then just making story decisions that might be supported by most of the canon details, but inevitably contradict some of them.

Time is canonically weird in Eerie, as is weather. There's a LOT of leeway in terms of what can be handwaved by saying "wally" "milkmen" or "creepy garbage guys".
