Emily of New Moon (1998–2003)
10/10
I Apologize For Loving The Television Series!
16 April 2022
I'm sorry and I am not sorry. I caught this show quite some time ago in the early 2000's. I was 30ish and watching early morning tv like The Patty Duke Show, Highway Patrol, Seahunt and Mr. Ed. They weren't shows I had seen as a child bc they were before my time but as an adult I found that I liked them. Eight am rolled around and there was Emily of New Moon. I'd never even heard of the books let alone read them so I had no preconceived expectations. I was instantly caught up in this new to me show. I don't suppose there are lots of people who were watching this show at the age of 30 but I was. The fact it was an import from Canada I liked. I admit it was a bit soap-operish and I was left with a cliff hanger in my lap every Sunday morning but isn't that what most tv series are like? If they weren't they wouldn't be able to hold onto their audience. Nowadays we have so many so-called "reality shows" that are in actuality not that real being that they are scripted. I watched every episode of every season and I loved it. Many people here say they're sorry they even attempted to watch Emily of New Moon bc they had read each of the three books and were disappointed in the tv show. The one thing that I won't ever do is read the books bc it would probably ruin the tv series for me. The only thing that left me wanting was the fact that the series didn't last long enough to cover all of the books. Now Emily of New Moon is offered by Hallmark Movies Now and I'm in the process of revisitation. I've tried googling the actors/actresses in every role of the series and I haven't found much. I wonder what they look like now and what they're doing etc...I've found out the most information recorded is about Martha MacIsaac. I suppose fittingly enough for the lead character. About this particular tv series I can say it seems either you love it or you hate it.
