    Could've Been Better

    Okay, don't get me wrong. I loved this show when I was a toddler. But later on in life, I was like, "One of the most stupid shows I ever laid eyes on." Even two of my OC characters, Kailey Evans, and Kasey Anderson, hate the show. Seriously. Princess Pea's cat is stuck in a tree. Girl! Go get the firefighters or get a ladder! Don't go into a frickin book and mess up the story. Because going into fairytales and messing up stories AND not bothering to fix them makes this show a total rip-off of Whatever After. I know Whatever After was later, but I don't care. TOTAL RIP-OFF if I've ever seen one.
