Talk:Beauty and the Beast: Belle's Magical World/@comment-35010403-20190712001412/@comment-1672596-20190712002651

I agree that Belle's Magical World wasn't really all that good from what I gather.

On the other hand... I do think a TV show would have probably improved the film quite a bit by actually SHOWING Belle's backstory in the village and even explaining why she even moved there in the first place (not to mention would probably give more characterization to the triplets, hopefully give them actual ugly traits besides crushing on Gaston to actually have them act as foils). Heck, would also work in building more characterization for Beast and expanding more on the challenges posed by the curse before Belle came in. Of course, it obviously shouldn't be one episode per airing. Think more two-part shorts composing various episodes, like Recess, or Garfield and Friends/Acre 51 or Grimm and Mandy. That would allow for equal screentime for Belle and Beast. Let's face it, the original film as it is was just badly done. A few times, Belle came across as a complete jerk to everyone and really didn't befit being beautiful inside and out, and her foils... let's just say the writers mixed up which aspects the triplets and Belle were supposed to represent regarding the moral of true beauty coming from within and leave it at that.
