Review by judibruc

I caught an episode of this show on satellite cable and was just horrified. Having read and truly loved the books as a child, I was at first very excited to see that there was apparently some interest in producing a film/television version, but in comparison with the books the characters and stories presented in the TV series are completely unrecognizable and also came across as a little bizarre. It's even more disappointing considering what a beautiful job was done creating the "Anne..." films (the first two, anyway). The "Emily" series could make just as wonderful a transition but was, in this case, handled very VERY badly.
