Willow (2022–2023)
8/10
We'll see if my feelings change, but so far so good...
2 December 2022
I laughed quite a few times and really enjoyed seeing so many of the characters I loved as a child. I went into this knowing it would be made to be enjoyed by the whole family... That was the charm of the original, after all... And it didn't disappoint.

This isn't some grand fantasy epic made for adult fans... Don't go into it expecting that. But it's satirical, has adventure, and so far I have no issues with the writing or directing. I am genuinely surprised to see how low the ratings are so far.

Give it some time to build and remember the cheese and fun of the original! These characters are young and this their problems start out feeling teen drama-like... But also, the whole point of Willow was that he also wasn't expected to achieve anything and overall was very run-of-the-mill in his community as well. Not everyone will love this show... But that's alright. See what you think for yourself.
