Due Fantagenitori!: Esprimi un desiderio

The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish is the second reboot to the Fairly OddParents, the first being the Paramount+-exclusive Fairly Odder, which was cancelled after one season due to it being an attempt to turn the series into a live-action sitcom continuation (as well as some people believing the series did not need to be brought back, among other reasons), and can be seen by many fans as Nickelodeon still being unable to make up their minds on whether the FOP should stay cancelled or not (as the original show was infamous for being cancelled, only to be suddenly renewed).

Set in the city of Dimmadelphia, the show follows Hazel Wells, a ten-year-old girl whose family moved into the city. Missing her brother, Antony, who is in college, Hazel is sad and depressed, but soon, her life is about to turn Fairly Odd, as her next-door neighbors end up being Cosmo and Wanda, Timmy's fairy godparents. Having retired sometime prior to the series, seeing Hazel being miserable, they decide to come out of retirement and become her fairy godparents, where like with Timmy, each wish causes an adventure as they usually go wrong.

So, yeah, basically, this is yet another reboot, and somehow, this is fairly better than Fairly Odder. Taking the series back to its animated roots, A New Wish goes CGI with the characters looking like they were made for the original show (and even some still images made for flashbacks and the title cards done in the 2D style of the original show). Sadly, the show is said to feature mostly new characters, with Cosmo, Wanda, and the strict Jorgen von Strangle being the only three characters returning (unless Nickelodeon and the series decide to have the characters return at some point if the show does good enough to go beyond one season). For the voice acting, Daran Norris and. Susanne Blakeslee return to voice Cosmi and Wanda (with Daran also reprises the role of Jorgen). Ashleigh Crystal Harrison, best known as the voice of Babs Bunny on Tiny Toons Looniversity. Voices Hazel, and does an amazing job, and the show brings in some well known VAs like Grey Griffin,Eric Bauza, and even Carlos Alazraqul, whom FOP fans remember as the voice of series antagonist Denzel Crocker, was invited to voice a new character in Mr. Guzman, who is a lot nicer and gives Hazel good advice (as the mean adult role went to the principal,Amy Krentz, who is one of Grey Griffin's characters, who is basically mean, strict, and is obsessed with perfection or winning,

With the new characters and settings, the formula is always the same, as each episode has Hazel makes a wish, only for it to go bad, just like it did with Timmy in the original show, and learning an important lesson along the way. However, I have to give this a sevem as despite being good, the new characters were a hit-or-miss, as well as of the humor not being funny, but A New Wish is good, and I hope it gets newer fans to go and check out the original show.

When I first heard about this show, I didn't have high hopes. I expected it to be like some of the other shows that have come out recently, which were not very good. I thought it might be another disappointment, like the show "Fanboy and Chum Chum." However, I was pleasantly surprised. From the very first episode, the show grabbed my attention. The characters are interesting and the story is good but not perfect. It is clear that the creators put a lot of effort into making this show enjoyable for all ages. The animation is also very well done. The colors are bright and vibrant, which makes the show visually appealing. Not like the other reboots we had.

I love the new art style it reminds me of the Peanuts Movie. The reboot did a pretty good job being true to the original while still doing its own thing. In this new version, Cosmo and Wanda have a new Godkid and it takes place in the future. I prefer the original but this is a worthy reboot. It's pretty funny so I would recommend checking it out. My man Poof had better appear he is one of my favorite characters. I also hope they show the whereabouts of what happened to other characters from the original. What happened to Chloe, What happened to Sparky, What happened to Chester, What happened to AJ, What happened to Vicky, What Happened to Tootie, What happened to Darth Lazer, etc.

Now, I know a lot of people had low expectations about this show seeing all the previous failures of FOP but this show is actually not that bad if you give it a chance!

First the animation/art style It's stylized to a degree but it can look a little bland in some scenes, but the animation is great overall with snappy movements.

As for the new character Hazel, shes a breath of fresh air for the FOP series, she's different from Timmy so its fun to see what she would do compared to Timmy. I see alot of people are upset that Timmy has been 'replaced' but it was about time we got a new MC who does things differently to Timmy.

As for Cosmo and Wanda they kinda revert to their season 1 personalities being 2 goofy idiots and I'm here for it!

Episodes wise I found myself laughing at some jokes here and there and some scenes captures the charm to the original show. Although because of modern writing there were some parts that were kinda cringe but its understandable seeing this is meant for a new gen.

Overall its a decent cute show that you should give a chance and I hope this gen can grow up with this FOP reboot.

I've watched the original show back when I was a kid. So when I heard about this new sequel series, I had to see for myself. To not spoil anything, here's how I sum it up. Not only did the nostalgia hit hard for me with all the callbacks and cameos but every little story made me care about the new godkid's growth and you really get to see her learning life lessons through such entertaining and touching moments.

Admittedly, I stopped watching the original series sometime around season 7ish after high school, but seeing this show is now making me want to go back and binge the original from the beginning. I hope this new series get renewed for a second season.
