Tangled: The Series

I think they did a great job. Very enjoyable even if you didn't see the movie.

This series is great and this is why:

1. Animation

Many people complain about the 2D style... Let me tell you something: this is so much better than the cheap CGI alternative they had. There was no way to create more than 1500 minutes of footage for the whole series in the same style as the movie, which is the most expensive animated movie of all times. Great character design, top quality facial expressions, beautiful backgrounds and colors. The choice was perfect!

2. Voice Actors

We've got the original cast from the movie plus Jeremy Jordan, Eden Espinosa and James Iglehart, among others. They bring TTS characters (old and new) to life, displaying all kind of emotions flawlessly. And their voices... OMG! Wich leads me to the following item.

3. Songs

Alan Menken and Glenn Slater came back to write the songs and it really paid off: Waiting in the Wings (which got an Emmy), Nothing Left to Lose, Crossing The Line, and the list goes on. The songs are beautiful, move the plot forward, bring character depth and the animation on them is just amazing.

4. Writing

The mythology, the expanded universe, the world building and all the characters are amazing. Not to mention these guys had it all planned out right from the start (I can't say more without getting into spoilers)

Watch it!

When I initially saw the trailers advertising that Tangled was becoming a cartoon, my immediate thought was that it would be a superfluous cash grab. I was surprised to find a show that, while aimed towards younger audiences, is actually rather entertaining with a pretty good story arc. It is a kids show, but it's a pretty good kids show with good animation and solid music

The episodes in the Tangled Series are very creative & engaging. Our whole family (even daddy) looks forward to watching them. It is entertaining for kids, teens & adults. The characters are fun-loving, and the humor is delightful...it's a great way to unwind from a long week of work, school, etc. PLEASE KEEP THEM GOING.

Back at 2010, Disney released Tangled, a movie about Rapunzel, after being in the tower for a long time since childhood, goes out with a thief named Flynn Rider in order to pursue the lanterns on her birthday. Her biological mother, Mother Gothel, however, intends to use Rapunzel's hair in order to retain her youth. It became a box office success and thus plans for a television series were made.

Originally spun off from Tangled: Before Ever After, the series continues the adventures of Rapunzel during her adjustments to the life of a princess while encountering a mysterious return of her 70 feet magical golden hair. Little did she know that mysteries surrounding the world of Corona lie ahead as she tries to uncover them along with Cassandra, Eugene, and many others.

Now that it's been nearly 6 months since the show ended, I'm not going to do any spoilers and give the show some praise. Not only is this one of the best animated Disney channel series, but it's a great continuation of the movie. I know there's many people out there that either love it or hate it, but as a person who loved the movie back at the early 2010s, I personally love this show.

Not only does it expand on the original film with very deep storylines, it provides some solid character development for not only for Rapunzel and Eugene, but every other character in the entire show notably Cassandra. In fact, the characters are both likeable and relatable with some engaging and heartfelt voice work from Mandy Moore, Zachary Levi, Eden Espinosa and everyone else including Julie Bowen, Clancy Brown, and Jeremy Jordan. The pacing for every episode so far has been solid as it provides some atmosphere.

The animation is also another great aspect. The character designs of Rapunzel Eugene, Maximus, and Pascal along with the other characters from the movie are good while the new character designs are also good. Not to mention that the visuals are perfectly colored especially the look of Corona.

And last but not least the music. Alan Menken, who composed the music and songs for the movie, returns for the show and provides some great new songs with Kevin Kliesch notably "Wind in My Hair" in the opening intro. Also, the music score is haunting uplifting, and poignant.

Overall, Tangled: The Series is a great show. To those who haven't seen the show yet, check out the movie first.
