I didn't even hear about The Lion Guard until today. I'm way behind the bandwagon when it comes to that. I don't know a whole lot about this show, seeing as I just found about it, but I'm not setting my expectations too high. I'm generally not a huge fan toward anything where the target demographic is really little kids. It's not that I find content like that necessarily bad. It's just that I feel too old for it. Some preschool-aged children's shows are eye rolling inducing anyway. At best, I think it might be really good for little kids and tolerable for the parents who watch it with them. It would be definitely be a good way to get younger kids interested in the TLK universe. When they get a bit older and are able to understand the movie, then their parents could expose them to the real deal. At worst, this could be an utter disaster that spits in the face of the original movie. I did read through the thread (I have too much time on my hands.
), and I did see that some of you posted links to material that leads me to think that this show might be better than my pessimistic mindset says it's going to be, so I'm willing to give this a chance, but I'm setting my expectations as low as they can go.
