I had high hopes for this series when I saw that Shelley Duvall was associated with it. I loved the Faerie Tale Theatre series. Sadly, this series misses the mark entirely. The original stories didn't need anything added to make them better. I've watched a couple of these episodes and am giving up in disappointment. Why couldn't the original stories have been filmed as they were written? This show is heavy handed, contrived and poorly acted.
Please do us a favor, Ms. Duvall, and stop before Amelia Bedelia is the next unhappy victim of a re-visioning.
