    It's a hoot.

    Better than most of MTV's over-sexualized comedy fare. Happyland is a simple teen soap with a heart and plenty of humor. All episodes are available on iTunes and Amazon Instant.

    I like Happyland because it's in a different setting than other shows. It's based on an amusement park. It's an interesting concept that'll be fun to play with and see how it carries out.

    Fans of teen soaps may enjoy Happyland for the lark that it is but veterans of the genre may also move on quickly: Even the happiest place on earth gets old after a while, and the same goes for what’s ultimately a likeable but fairly generic series.

    Happyland is definitely a fun show with a lot of original potential. It just needs to trust itself and the ingredients it has already in the stew before going for outlandish soap opera stories over grounded character-based work.

    A comedy with a fair amount of melodrama mixed in. The comic parts--fistfights between costumed characters, cattiness in the costume room, training sessions with militarylike intensity--can be pretty funny.... The melodrama is more uneven.
