Ashley Moulton Common Sense Media 10/14/2021
4/5
This is a series that challenges kids and takes them seriously, and the fantasy setting will enchant them. For the right kid, this show largely strikes the perfect balance of scares but also (probably) allowing them to sleep at night after watching. Go to Full Review

Eric N. @Sweet_Tomato Aug 31 Great adaptation of the book See more Idan Charles L @Idanlevine 06/01/2024 Great but pretty childish The song is an absolute masterpiece See more 03/14/2022 A very interesting show. I was hesitant at first due to the art style and the "children's tales" theme, but was pleasantly surprised and ended up loving it. It's quite refreshing to see tropes and classic themes be played with, subverted, and even played straight. It'll keep you entertained that's for sure. I watched all 10 episodes in one go. See more 11/17/2021 FINALLY! An animated series that doesn't talk down to children. THANK YOU, NETFLIX!!! Animation and the look of the series is beautiful and almost feature-like. Our family is now watching the entire season for the 6th time, and are hopeful for more. See more 11/05/2021 Loved it! The characters have real personalities and the voice actors did an amazing job. There are enough jokes for the kids and adults so it is definitely one for the family to watch. Visually it's pretty amazing too - great animation. See more 10/22/2021 Only watched one episode with my kids. It has it's moments (some jokes are good) but most of the time it's just stupid. See more Read all reviews
