I thought, wrongly, that it might have changed somehow. Maybe they would have gone the way of some remakes and made it funny in some campy or ironic way. There was none of that here. It was still, sincerely saccharine craptastic television. There are no redeeming qualities.
The acting is either mailed in or just horrible. The writing looks to have come from some edgy Sunday school teacher who doesn't know how to write. I dislike commenting on actors/actresses appearances, but I am not seeing the appeal there, either.
Whatever joy I had before watching was wiped. It was like when Harry Potter met the Dementors. Every moment felt like that.
You might think this is a lot of hyperbole, but it's not. It is that awful of a show. Awful, awful, awful.
