I haven't full watched the whole season but judging on the first Episode it's good. I just find one comment here funny, saying the story was all rush. Alright Ma'am find an actor who doesn't age.
We love the story and the development of these characters from the original but there is really no way to cover that knowing that these actors will mature in just a year. So come on, be real, be happy with what you get at least they tried to cover all the big events and the actors did justice to their roles.
Stop getting your expectations super high you know is impossible to reach. Don't ask for Immortal or Forever young actors to get what you want because that's never gonna happen.
