I thought that this was a pretty good prequel but I did think that it answered to many questions that didn't need answers. I thought that the idea of the special taking place in 1997, before the series started was a great idea. My problem was that there was too much information given and we were told about the reason for almost everything that takes place in the park. I don't think that we needed to know why everything happens and how each detail of park life began.
I was very amused by the way that the park brings Christmas to life and the way that the park looks in the winter. The boys slipping and sliding in the snow and having problems driving in winter was great. I live in a place that has very long winters and I was very happy that the show was very true to how it really is to live in winter.
Poor Bubbles was probably my favorite part of the show, for those of you who haven't seen this show, I recommend that you see it for Bubbles if for no other reason.
I am a very committed TPB fan and own the first 4 seasons on DVD and as such I think that I am qualified to give you all my opinion.
I have to say once again that it was a great special but my intelligence was insulted slightly.
Thank you for listening.
