I can do without the likes of the Rigmaroles and the animated silverware. I guess my biggest problem with this so far is the lack of talking animals. I mean, I know it's a TV budget and everything (what exactly are they going to do with Jack?), but when there are characters like the Cowardly Lion, Hungry Tiger, and Woggle Bug that are a big part of the series, it's notable when they are absent.
