After reading some of these reviews I would have to disagree with the negative ones of course the first episode is going to be a bit slow as they lay out the foundation for the story line just like any first show of any sitcom!! But I have a feeling the show is going to turn into something big and still has the feeling of the Mighty Ducks and for those of you that don't remember the coach of the New Mighty Ducks was actually on the Hawks in the original Mighty Ducks!! For those of you that are saying it's a waste of time of watching I strongly disagree you need to give it a chance! Tell me how many shows did you start watching and not really get into them until the second or third episode?? I'm a huge NCIS fan at but it took me probably three or four episodes until I really got into the show!! Yes is the show a little different than the original movies of course it is it's going to be it's 25 years after the fact! But me and my daughter sat down last week and washed all three Mighty Ducks movies just so she's caught up when this series started today she's excited and can't wait for the next episode!
Having grown up watching the original movies as a kid I was hopeful they did the originals justice with the series. For the most part it is well done, but there are a few episodes that the writing fell a bit flat. The last episode felt rushed to finish. It seems like they could have had a few more episodes and fleshed it out a bit more.
Movies are fast paced and in your face. TV shows can be a bit more laid back. This isn't the Mighty Duck movies. The first show is a bit slower as the story is established but I thought the kids were great. Lauren Graham works as an overprotective mom. Emilio Estevez's Gordon Bombay has taken quite the turn from where he was 25 years ago but you know that he's going to get behind the down on their luck kids who can barely skate. Some of the kids (now adults) from the movies will be making cameos and it'll be fun to see them on the show.
The Mighty Ducks has lost its soul.
This is nothing like the original. The series is incredible corny and cliché, and both the manuscript and acting is so bad, like everything's just so unbelievable too. AND, all the hockey scenes are just cheap, like you can tell nobody knows how to skate.
Disney also added the coach to the list of grown-up babies, together with Luke from SW.
There're some feel good parts about it sure, but overall the series is just not good...
