So next season will be hosted by the Ghost of the Professor, who has been waiting literal eons for his chance to live again. The only way to save the Professor is for Ryan to collect the Infinity Jelly Beans which are hidden in the trophies of all the previous guests. Ryan has to defeat of the guests to get their cup. Slowly, Ryan comes to realize that the winner algorithm is in fact based not on points, but how much you care about the Professor.

Fuck the amount of forethought going into this show. Ryan reacting to the name Asmodeus when the professor lists off the demon names, the laugh when asked if he has him in his contacts, the look on his face during the song. It is impossible to tell which bits are rehearsed and planned and which aren't until the plot lets you know

[@TerribleInThOriginal]

Ryan is actually the professor's origin; he will shortly track down the genie, wish for the power of time travel in hopes of finding the professor and bringing him back to a safer time period, but the genie will at the same time turn him into a puppet. While searching through history for the professor, Ryan will gradually lose the memory of his human life, forget what started him on this journey, and complete the time loop by becoming his own teacher, and picking on a student who for some reason triggers a self-loathing instinct deep within his new little blue heart.

Each week, Ryan is visited by a new special guest History Master who acts as a proxy therapist, trying to coax Ryan out of his depression. Ultimately, despite multiple cartoon retellings, creatively orchestrated musical numbers, and a metric tonne of jellybeans, Ryan is doomed to spend an eternity in a regretful state, clutching tightly the coveted cup as tears trickle down his meek face.

Honestly, yes! The Professor had it coming! His "algorithm" was BS and so annoying, while I liked the history part and the puppet songs, the way he just always made Ryan lose on purpose was the reason "Ruining History" was always the superior show to me, because there was always just friendly banter, costumes and information without the silly (rigged) competition part.

Recently, he's had someone that makes the musical guest puppets for him but the rest of the puppets are his (and all of the puppets from the first couple seasons, including the musical guests were made by him too)

[@arianamaria_]

If I remember correctly the try guys did an episode on making puppets and their guest expert said she made puppets for watcher so maybe Shane designs them and she creates them? Or maybe some of the early crafts were his before they hired a professional?

[@Grace-ir8er]

For Seasons 4 and 5, Madison Girifalco's done the puppets! Her name is in the credits under "Puppets By." Prior to Season 4, though, I believe Shane did all the puppet crafting himself.
