Does anyone think the writers may have watched A Series of Unfortunate Events and seen how well they pulled of musical stuff? Just binged it on Saturday. The last song was alright, but the series itself was missing great emotional depth and felt really comical at times. But I loved the nostalgia as I read the entire thirteen book series. Though I do hope in the second season, they get eater CGI, visuals, and work on the grit the stories capture perfectly.

Speaking of grit, my biggest concern about this musical... The show will lose the last of its grit and I don't want to see that happen. Not that everything has to be so drab and depressing... But the series also isn't just some comical one-dimensional skit show that parodies fairytales. Which I really feel is what this musical is going to do by accident. No, I think they watched Buffy and Angel and decided to plagiarize them. Right, because Buffy is the only show that ever did a musical episode. Why are we not all bowing down at the Buffy alter right now. How foolish of us to watch any other shows, they will never compete with the legendary Buffy.
