    Hmmmm

    Everyone who played a teenager were super annoying, especially the ones that played the twins and the sister. Show reminds me a bit of Grimm, but Grimm was better. I can see why Disney passed up on this show. If theres a Season 2, i'd be surprised. Christian Slater was good as a baddie, but needed more witches of eastwick jack nicholson type acting.

    The acting was all over the place. The plot holes also all over the place. I also felt these kids kept repeating themselves in every episode. I watched the show only cause i was already invested. We'll see. I gave it a 6 out of 10 cause there were moments that caught my attention.

    Far and away from its source material

    8 epsiodes, 8 hrs to develope better than the orginal that was well done in 90 min. When you cannot tell a solid story in 8 hrs with the foundation already laid out, time to call it quits. And do we need to throw in every issue of todays world and make the main character another villain. Cause that is what Jared was. Far too much emphasis in mebtal health. We get it. And the towns people reaction after what happebed to them! Really? Why did we hardly see thimbletack? And his design was horrible as well as the rest of the CGI? Roku if you are reading this, no season 2 unless you switch writers and spend some xtra money on the effects and the fairy world we are all looking forward to. Too.

    horrific plot script, dialog, creature design, effects

    The ONE & ONLY redeeming aspect of this entire fiasco is Christian Slater's devastating performance, worthy of a real cast, crew, writers, producers and directors. If the last episode would have shown us that there was science fiction involved, and Slater had been transported into a D-list production from an A-list one, THAT would have felt far more believable. OK, actually, the actress who played Lucinda was pretty charming, as well, so who's to say how she might have done with adult-written dialog? The remaining cast could have been good; it's hard to say - the material they had to work with was so atrocious, repetitive and grating, it is almost impossible to watch. I did watch the whole thing - and, unfortunately, there is zero character development. So a character who says an annoying thing in the first episode will continue to spout the same time of thing throughout all of the whole 8 episodes - bar none. There's no relief from a gorgeous CGI fairy world, bc the producers largely felt it wasn't needed in this production. So you have Slater, the actress who played Lucinda, portaled into the worst television fantasy series to have been produced in decades. Watch the 2008 film or Willow or House of the Dragon or pretty much ANYTHING else, bc this is a dumpster fire.

    Bad Fun

    The Bad: It's pretty bad, the writing is bad, most of the story is predictable, special effects are questionable and a ton of unnecessary forced dialogue.

    The main (Spiderwick) characters are VERY unlikeable and don't stick out. They gave the teenagers no likeable traits!

    Timbletack is also very ugly I don't know why his design is this bad.

    The ending was bad!

    The Good: The dialogue is laughably cringe which makes the show kind of funny.

    The cast they chose to play the characters are quite good even though the writers butchered the characters with AWFUL dialogue.

    Conclussion: Don't watch the show it isn't worth the 5 hours+ of watching just to see some bad CGI, cringe writing and way too many long forced dialogue for this to be 'enjoyable'. It's overall just a mediocre show.

    Seriously!!!!

    Im sick and tired of remakes and all that bull First you cant tell me it's good when Ive seen the original movie and read the books STOP RUINING CHILDHOOD THINGS Let alone no offense but this whole culture appropriation thing It's clear in the stories they're not people of color Dont get me wrong its not that I have a problem with it its more so it feels like they're not appreciated don't make remakes and make a whole new movie something that is not some sloppy second's remake Its like these writers dont have the time of day to give people of color there own movie something fresh something new.
