Stays (mostly) true to the books

The acting could use a little work, but otherwise, I love this show. It's so cool to see the books I've been reading since elementary school put onto the screen. My only problem is that Mr. Benedict's and Mr. Curtain's suits aren't that ugly green plaid. Instead, Mr. Benedict looks at a square piece of plaid fabric instead.

Also, once they finish this show, they should totally make a movie about the Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict...

Title says it all really. All the tests was well thought out, but whatever happened after the last test, was simply wierd.

Great Show With Ok Actors

I understand finding child actors is difficult, although these aren't the best I've ever seen, they are pretty solid considering their ages. The score is amazing and plot shows promise though it does deviate slightly from the books. Overall pretty good and excited for more...

Straight from the books

Not much to say, but an excellent pilot that felt like the books came to life. Very accurate to the books, with the few adjustments of Dewey and Krista which helped raise the stakes of the third test. As a fan of the books, this was very, very good and bodes well for future Disney+ book adaptations like Percy Jackson.
