Freak out!
Ok so I love Disney movies. Especially the classic cartoons that I grew up with such as the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, the lion king but my all time favorite is Lady and the Tramp. Don't know why except that when I was little my grandparents had a dog named Lady. She wasn't even a cocker spaniel but who am I to argue with two year old me's logic? Anyway the problem that I've found with having Lady and the Tramp as your favorite Disney movie is it's almost impossible to find merch for it. It was easier when I was little and therefore had no money to buy the stuff but now that I can, unless you look really hard you can't find much that isn't a stuffed animal. And even then it's few and far between. Having said that, I walked into the Disney store today and was looking at the stuffed animals and saw a Tramp out of the corner of my eye. Nothing new. But then I really looked and saw they had Tramp, Si, Am, Peg and the bulldog from the pound scene!!!!!!! I think I actually squealed. Then proceeded to show my sister in law who was with me and text my mom, one of my friends and tweet the picture I took because they finally had a stuffed animal that wasn't Lady or Tramp! This didn't even happen when the DVD came out! And trust me, I looked. I asked. I had a friend looking for stuff at Disney World for me. It's not to be found. So yeah, I geeked out big time and I don't even care!

Oliver Twist meets
So Neverland premiered last night. Visually it's amazing. Neverland has gorgeous sets, with snow turning to woodlands that reminds me a little of Narnia. I kinda love how Neverland is an alternate world and not just a place to stumble upon.
When you first meet Peter it reminds me a lot of Oliver Twist. A group of street kids conning their way into rich old men's pockets in 1906 only to return to a caregiver where they all live in an old warehouse. Although Jimmy seems to care a lot more for these boys than Fagan ever did.
The acting isn't bad, the sets are beautiful, the story isn't bad but I just can't get into it. There isn't really any reason I can find but I just didn't seem to care whether I missed parts of the show or not. Which is weird because I like the story of Peter Pan and a prequel so you get to see where he came from is a promising and good story. Oh well. Depending on what time part 2 is on tonight I'll watch it.
In other news, the Eureka and Warehouse 13 Christmas episodes are on tomorrow!!!! I can't wait for new episodes from those two teams. The previews look awesome and especially with Warehouse I can't wait to hear the humor (Eddie!) Can't wait!!!!
