To be perfectly honest, when my little sister and I first saw the previews for American Dragon, we weren't too excited. The reason why: Disney's last two or three animated series weren't exactly...good. To say the least. Lilo and Stitch and Brandy and Mr. Whiskers didn't exactly give us much hope on the Disney channel original series thing. But a little more than a month ago I turned to Disney Channel because there was nothing else on. And I watched part of an episode of American Dragon (The one with the chalice and the genie. I can't remember the title.) and I was entranced by it. It absolutely rocked my world. I haven't been so excited about an American cartoon since Teen Titans. I've always loved magic, and I love the idea of both the normal and magical world coinciding with each other. And I love dragons. They rock my socks. I love Jake's attitude, and I love that it takes place in NYC. I love the dramatic irony in the beginning of the series with the budding relationship between Rose and Jake, and now I can't wait to see what happens in the couple episodes between the two of them, since now Jake knows that it's her. My love of this series has spread to the kids I babysit, who don't have cable, so I record shows for them sometimes. They have watched that tape about three times now. Since last week. I'm not sure if I can really capture with words how awesome I think this show is. I only hope that they keep it going. For FOREVER.
