What I liked

Cohesiveness of the cast really showed in the acting and in the musical numbers. Loved the meta humor. Fantastic energy from everyone.

What I didn't like

There were a few jokes that fell flat or were missed because the next line came a little too quickly.

My overall impression

A delightful dose of nostalgia. The casting was fantastic. Elise Golgowski truly understands what being a cartoon nemesis is all about. The plot, costuming, and musical numbers took me straight back to any given Saturday morning in the 80’s. Cassie Lujan has pipes to be remembered. Veronica Carey Matthew’s comedic timing stole the show.
