Ghostwriter

I'm not really sure why this show has gotten such terrible reviews. Maybe it's because I actually watched the original series, but I think this remake is highly enjoyable. I find the acting to be super believable, the writing is charming and heartfelt, and I even think the special fx are decent. Now, I do think that this show is more intended for young children, since they often present each episode's narrative as if you won't know pretty famous book characters, like Alice in Wonderland. If you're looking for something yo watch with your kids, or you're just in the mood for something different, I think Ghostwriter is a great show to enjoy.

As a lover of the original series, I was/am excited about this remake and couldn't wait to watch it. Episodes 1-4 were a bit too slow but the show starts picking up some speed around episode 5. If I'm honest the show does seem a little lackluster and missing some of the magic from the original. The secret pact, the pen necklaces and secret notebooks, all made it feel more like an exclusive club in the original. This one lacks that feel and fails to knock on the nostalgia heartstrings so far. ( It's modernized, I get It but I wish it had some of that feel) I do enjoy this remake though and although I'm not a huge fan of the books characters coming to life, I like that it might get a kid to pick up a book they might not have. All in all, if you can watch this and not compare it to the original you'll enjoy it more in my opinion.

I've watched many children's shows with my girls as they grew up and thought this series would be fun. Watching the 1st episode I thought something was off. By the end of the 2nd episode I believe it is the acting. Stiff, awkward. The flow between actors is missing.

I find the children actors are not connected, hesitant acting, missing the flow where they work off each other. Instead GW feels amateurish. The principle is flat, like a stick character re-sighting lines (cannot act). As other's state in their reviews, no magic, no energy. The role of the queen is also flat like she just woke up from a nap.

The only two character who have energy are the Rabbit - excitement in his voice and this is a voice over. The 2nd is the little sister. The actors don't work well together. A puzzle with the wrong pieces.

I am a Millenial. I grew up around the original but i wasn't a fan of the original

I watched this as a millenial adult knowing the premise of the original but watching the remake as a stand alone show because i wasn't a fan of the original.

I Really enjoyed season 1. I would thve rated season 1 a 7/10.

I really liked the storylines and i think it's a fantastic childrens series

unfortunately season 3. Samir. His acting is TERRIBLE!! If you are the actor who plays samir or his parents. I am sorry to tell you the news. His acting is terrible!!! His character talks to his own like he just met them for the first time. He was the wrong casting choice.

I had never heard of this series. But, I'm glad I found it. Seems to be a true gem. Don't let the other reviews sway you. Just watch it and get immersed in it. And it's good for all ages. Even a 54 year old Dad.
