Mia et moi

Seson 1 and 2 were amazing combining children's favourite thing like fairy's and unicorns. And the traveling between different world is genius, however season 3 has an entirely different cast and story line witch gets pretty confusing. They should have just stopped at seson 2 with the old cast.

If you have a daughter who likes "My Little Pony", The Disney Fairy movies about Tinkerbelle and her friends, the Harry Potter films and that sort of thing then she would enjoy "Mia and Me".

It is about a young girl who is off at boarding school so she is trying adjust to new people and living conditions. If you remember your schooldays there are mean girls and nice girls this is all I will say about that.

Her daddy though happens to be a game developer and made her a game based on stories he used to tell when she was quite young. All about the magical land of Centopia with fairies and unicorns. To her her great surprise and joy it turns out that she can play the game and actually wind up in the land of Centopia as a fairy herself.

Thus the title of the show. Mia and me....Mia (when on earth) and me(when in Centopia) at least until the timer runs down.

but then that is part of the game and you really should watch the show and find out how it works that way. also find out about the people on earth and her friends in Centopia where she really has her best times with MO the prince of Elves, Yuko the warrior girl and the unicorns, especially Onchoa the flying unicorn.

there is more but I'm not giving out any spoilers - watch the show with your child(ren) and let them enjoy the experience. This is one of the best children's shows yet and my little daughters favourite show ever, even more than Lion, Witch and Wardrobe.

Seasons one and two are beautiful story telling with an understanding and empathy that seems to have vanished in season three. The cast changes and writing seems to be more commercial and less considered.

They should have just stopped this show after season 2. I used to watch it with my daughter it was so fun. A girl turns into a fairy, switching from real like to an imaginary cartoon world. It was interesting and smart. But the main actress left after season 2, fine, she had other gigs. They just should have stopped Liz instead they got new writers, and a whole new cast, and voila, a piece of crap. Bad acting, poor writing. I was almost as annoyed as seeing The Originals canceled for the crappy Legacies, but that's another show and story altogether.

If you have a child that enjoys fairies and elves and unicorns and such, then this is something else for them to watch. It's a fantasy show where a real life (live action) teenage girl is magically transported to a (CG animated) land of flying elves on occasion. Season 1 is formulaic with the new girl in school and the school bullies and the outcast friends. Lessons are learned, friends are made, bullies get their comeuppance, and in the fantasy land the heroes band together to defeat the villain. Season 2 gets more complex. The focus is on the main character and her school bully as they both spend a summer on their respective families' houses in the country. The stakes are higher and we learn more about the families of the characters. The antagonist even gets to join in on the fantasy adventures and gets her own redemption arc. The fantasy story involves freeing animals and finding characters and solving puzzles and has a little more to it than the last season. Season 3 is weird and different but ultimately inoffensive. All of the actors are replaced, there's a new Mia and a new voice cast and new characters. The fantasy story is just a rehash of Season 1. The new cast is fine. It's admittedly less engaging than the first two seasons, but it'll do for anyone wanting to see Mia go on more adventures. It's fine.
