I was really looking forward to it. I was disappointed. I know I was supposed to like Shauna but I really disliked her. Can't think of a single likable thing about her. Some things were nice. It was great to see the old characters back but not enthralled with the new. The originals were a slice of San Francisco in its heyday. Things feel a little "today" in a way the original didn't. No sense of nostalgia because it's now. There was also a bit where there was trying too hard recapture young Mary Ann when she first showed up in SF. There were also just plain too many people at Mrs. Madrigals party. It was never so packed in the old days. The charm was gone. It wasn't all bad. These are just the sticking points for me. I just wasn't feeling the connections between the characters. Replacing Mona with Mary Ann in the relationship with Mouse didn't really work for me. I know it was unavoidable but it was off for me.… Expand
