As a show it's a completely average Disney show. Nothing really wrong with it but it won't blow you away. I did like most of the acting. In fact, I think I liked everyone except how Filthy McNasty was portrayed. Although, he still had some moments. Just his character felt forced sometimes when in the book, he seemed completely natural. What I was really disappointed in though was that it didn't have the same ending as the book. The book's ending is real and raw. This ending is too much everyone lives happily ever after. So if you've read the book, you'll be disappointed most likely. If you haven't read the book then you might like it more than I did.
