when you watch this show.. whatever you do.. Do NOT COMPARE! this way its more enjoyable to watch. even i know its long, however think about it princess pearl 1 2 & 3 in one set.. it kinda have its own style to it.. i recommended to you as long you don't compare to the old ones. When I watched this show, i know i was going to hate, i was like everyone else comparing this show from the original cast. then as couple episode comes around it kinda gave more to it. even though its a remake, it still its own story and create its own originality.
