I've been seeing Descendants getting a lot of mention right alongsideABCs Once Upon A Time which is a little brow furrowing for me - not in confusion but slight concern, so when the six minute preview was released I took a look to get a better idea of what audiences are in for (because the marketing push seems to be getting bigger and I'm beginning to see merchandise. ! )
Here's the extended preview if you've missed what this is all about:
So onto the preview: I didn't think this would be my cup of tea so I'm not too surprised by what I'm seeing but I'll let you be the judge. (I was starting to come around until the song kicked in.)
Take a look:
Disney's Descendants is scheduled to premiere on Friday July 31st at 8pm (EST) on the Disney Channel.
It actually doesn't look that bad to me. But then, it looks rather unapologetic in its silliness, which is a trait I like. It's different from OUaT, which is a cheesy soap opera that actually asks you to take it seriously. Honestly, I've always found fairy tale/story mash-ups easier to take when they don't try too hard to be serious.

ReplyDeleteThis looks absolutely terrible, but I'm guessing it will find an appreciative audience.
