I hope this is good. I will never forget the night I sat down to watch the new series premier with my children. I bought the original DVD's and let them watch them and kept telling them how great the series was. I remember setting at home and watching it premier when I was 8 years old. I kept building up the new one. Then we watched it and I was like close your eyes and don't look and just turn the stupid thing off. Oh well, I pretty much like the new show but wouldn't want my two young ones to watch it. So maybe a comic of the old would be great for them to have.
