Zero to Hero. Or Hero to Zero?
Mid-to-late 90's (1997) Disney's take on the tale of the Greek demigod Heracles (aka Hercules), that takes more than a few liberties with those tales to put their own spin on it: here Hercules himself, for instance, does not suffer from the enmity of Hera, nor does he have the 12 labours to complete (although those are referenced).

The main 'big draw voice' in this is Danny DeVito as Hercules tutor Philoctetes, with Yate Donavan as Hercules himself and James Woods as the villain of the piece, Hades.

It also has very 'angular' and vibrant animation (to represent strength) which I find somewhat offputting, while none of the songs are really that memorable IMO.

I went into Regretting You blind, as I do with most of Colleen's books - I definitely don't regret it. While I confess to being super nosy and curious about the letters and what questions they could have answered, I have read Colleen's explanation, I can say I respect her reasoning. I also want to say that I loved how she explored the relationship between mother and daughter, I don't think that's a typical topic. I loved Jonah and Miller, they were both so great in their own ways! I was afraid of this book being a cliché, but Colleen is too good at her job, because none of it felt like any other storyline I've ever read. What a great way to start out 2020!

Not as good as some of the others

This series is a must buy for me. I've loved all of them so far, some more than others, admittedly, but none less than four stars.

This one didn't hook me as much as the others but I still felt a lot of emotion when it came to Knox. The poor guy. I wanted to equally hug him and slap him through out the present parts of the story.

I really like how the stories are inter twining. Cousins, brothers, best friends, school friends...its a little complicated at times but I like it.

My favourite Forbidden man has got to be Ten, still, but they're all really great. I can't wait to read Asher's story next!

I honestly don't know. (0 more)
A lot. The main characters acting for one. (0 more)
I started this show thinking that I'd finally found a new show I could get into. I watched about 2 maybe 3 episodes (it's been a while) and it was painful to watch. Now of course many shows have that couple episode area where you need to push through and then it starts getting better. This show didn't have it.

The relationship between the main protagonist and his wife feels fake. He seems to care little to none about his son and overall the actor's performance gives the feel that he was given a script that just doesn't work.

Some of the settings also feel like they were slapped together last minute.
