This is so wrong
Disney hasn't mucked around with Winnie the Pooh enough yet, it seems, so they're replacing Christopher Robin with a six-year-old girl. Next up: Eeyore is dosed with Prozac.

A Disney spokeswoman told Reuters that the new character "is not a replacement for Christopher Robin" . . .
Sounds like the episode 13 twist is that the girl is actually .... Christopher Robin! Trans Power!

Disney destroys everything it touches these days. I watched the new version of "Once Upon A Mattress," which I remember liking when I saw the Carol Burnett version on TV ages ago. This time, she was the Queen and Tracy Ullman was the Princess.
It sucked. Ullman was great. Burnett was cliched. The overall production sucked, sucked, sucked.
Have I mentioned that it sucked?

That's the Disney M.O., all right. Well ABC has several good shows, but all of them were greenlighted by Lloyd Braun, whom Disney fired before any of them made it to air.
