I can't say I enjoyed this series as much as the old one from 1997. It's okay that they added a spark of magic to Sissi's story, but the timeline with the animals is pretty boring and aimed at small children. Every episode features some animal in trouble and Sissi seems to care more about her furry friends than Franz.
Things that I loved: the character of Prince Ludwig, the one who lives at Neuschwanstein and designs castles. I really thought he would have been a better match for Sissi.
Also, this show depicted real portraits of Sissi and Franz, scattered on the walls of Schönbrunn Palace, a realy nice tribute to the actual historical figures the series is based on.
