Review of Redwall

Redwall (1999–2002)
Could they have screwed the book more?
1 December 2005
I give them a 2 only in reference that they tried, even though they throw the wonderful book down the toilet. I watched all 13 episodes of the show supposedly worthy of the title 'Redwall' and haven't seen such horrible justice to a novel since 'The Secret of Nimh.' I think I counted 6 episodes that actually contained something in the book, all the rest were some screw-off to make a profit. I cringe every time someone says 'Wild Ivey' or any of the other trash they threw in. They could have put a lot more book details in, but instead made up a bunch of crap. If you must add, add. If you must eliminate, eliminate. But if you add and eliminate your work will amount to nothing.

Summarized, if you are a fan of Mr. Jacques wonderful Redwall Saga, and believe in NOT destroying a literary masterpiece, you're bound to get all riled up upon viewing this terrible adaptation.
