Peter Pan Goes Wrong TV Special Review

 


There are so few stories that have been told so many as that of the story of Peter Pan with the original play and or even book scoring so many adaptations that it's hard to keep track of them all and as such there was bound to be an adaptation that went wrong. Well i've found said adaptation and well then I thought that i'd review it for you all today and so then join me as I review what is quite possibly the absolutely funniest adaptation of the Peter Pan with this particular adaptation being called simply just "Peter Pan Goes Wrong" enjoy.

The plot of this TV special is literally just the exact same plotline as every single other good Peter Pan adaptation. Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this TV special well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very TV special was in all honesty really freaking good which given that the plot of this special is literally just that of Peter Pan it really shouldn't come as surprise to absolutely anybody whatsoever that the plotline of this TV special is actually really freaking good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Starring in this special is Greg Tannahill as Jonathan Harris and as Peter Pan and Charlie Russell as Sandra Wilkinson and as Wendy Darling. Also starring in this special is Henry Shields as Chris Bean and as Captain Hook and as Mr Darling , Dave Hearn as Max Bennett and as Michael Darling and as The Crocodile , Jonathan Sayer as Dennis Tyde and as John Darling and as Smee , Nancy Zamit as Annie Twilloil and as Liza / Mrs Darling / Tinkerbell / Tiger Lily and as a Pirate , Henry Lewis as Robert Grove and as Nana / Shadow and as Starkey , Ellie Morris as Lucy Grove and as Tootles , Chris Leask as Trevor Watson and finally we have Sir David Suchet as The Narrator.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very special well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very special was all in all honesty really freaking good. With the vast majority of this specials cast playing multiple different roles all the whilst also there main actor or actress all of which isn't easy to freaking do at all in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 



Now then perhaps the most famous adaptation of the classic Peter Pan storyline is that of the 1953 Disney animated film Peter Pan. As such not alot of people know or even realise that that storyline not only didn't start with Disney but is also technically in the public domain since the rights holders are a children's hospice and so you could announce today and right now that your making a new version of Peter Pan and there's nothing that nobody could ever do to stop you because lawfully you'd be in the clear to do so in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


So now then this TV adaptation is actually an adaptation of the play of the same name starring the same cast. Altho I do believe that this TV special adaptation of the play has some new joke in it which in all honesty works very well since it keeps new fans entertained whilst also entertaining new fans whom perhaps for some reason or another simply just couldn't go and watch the original play in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Now then I haven't in all honesty the original play version of Peter Pan Goes Wrong an as such I cannot really say if anything that was cut out either hindered or even helped this adaptation. However I can say the basic idea still works and would always no matter what the medium is since seeing a bunch of people put on there play version of a classic story and seeing just how it all goes wrong exactly will always be a really freaking good idea in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


So now then both this special and the A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong TV special both include a look into the personal lives of all of those involved. Which yeah is something that I really didn't like as it added nothing to the overall story of the actual play itself and what was being said wasn't even that funny either but at the same time it was something that helped in the character development of the actual characters themselves in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.

Now then this TV special has / had an exact  grand old running time of exactly one hour and two minuets and sixteen seconds. Which is in all honesty the absolutely perfect running time for a TV special like this one since it's just telling a really freaking well known storyline whilst adding in absolutely nothing to that storyline and so then there's really no need to for this TV special to last anything that's even near to being anywhere even close to being one hour and thirty minuets in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then this is a comedy TV special after all and that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very TV special and well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very TV special was in all honesty really freaking good. With pretty much all of this special jokes hitting hitting really freaking hard and more importantly making me laugh really freaking hard as well in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this TV special was a really freaking good and more importantly this TV special was also a really freaking funny as all heck TV special which for a comedy TV special is really freaking good thing to be in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very freaking TV special in this very review which means that this very TV special erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 9.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official The Goes Wrong Extended Universe fandom wiki page , the official Disney fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personal favourite website to use to get the actual images that are from this very / particular episode that I actually used in this very review being Google Images simply because alot of if not all of the images that are currently up featured and on the official Google Images page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in freaking definition.
