This series is an embarrassment when compared to the 1994 version. The casting is awful to say the least, and the story is nearly impossible to follow, even after just having watched the original movie. None of the main characters have any moral character. They all come off as entitled, weak, and shallow. Whoopi Goldberg cast as the saving grace, kind-hearted, black grandmother says it all. The director recruited her straight from The View, and she stayed in character.
The only decent actor, with a reasonably well-written role is that of James Marsden as Stu. So, 4% of the film is good. Far better remakes are out there.
