Let's dive back into the world of Ever After High to review it's very first Netflix special, "Spring Unsprung"! Is this topsy-turvy wonderland themed adventure worth the Netflix paywall? What about the story and characters?! Only one way to find out! Let's dive in!

[@courtneycalvert185]

Ok,, I LOVE the way Kitty’s mom looks. She looks so amazing with her high cheek bones and sleek leggings like GURL, I think I’m so starved for new face shapes that my mind is just BLOWN when I see any from Ever After

[@randymilo212]

No cuz she didn’t have to look this good 😊

Lizzie being one of the best characters ever: She's such a mood and adorable. Her design fits so well with her legacy too.

I remember laughing so hard at the line "Ginger baked us a message in a pie! The voices told me so~"

[@jesterfairy3845]

Yes to top 10 best and worst designs. We would love to see it. Recommendation: There's this gorgeous Cedar Wood collector doll that I've been obsessed with lately and I'd love to see your take on it

Agree. Please do it. I love it so much.

Y'all got any more of them Extra season opportunities?

[@maybe8985]

I WAITED FOR THIS ONE !! 1) I’m not a fan of the Bunny/Alistair ship for their weird relationship…(unpopular but the Kitty/Alistair duo could’ve been something interesting~) 2) Bunny father can’t turn into a human ? 3) Speaking of designs variety, according to the books : Apple is supposed to be curvier (with dimples and all) and shorter, Briar taller than the rest of her peers, Cerise is supposed to have wider shoulders and muscular body. 4) So Kitty is a Royal…? 5) Evil!Apple is everything 6) starting to think Cedar is the only « black »girl of the crew at the moment, as a black girl I must stay woke on her neglect ~ 7) And yes, it’s my least favorite special so far.

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

Technically she's a royal... but it's only because that's what her mother does. If her mother decided to become a rebel, Kitty would probably also become a rebel. Generally she's very indifferent on the royal and rebel conflict.

[@maybe8985]

@@thejudgmentalcritter6584 that’s why i was confused in the first place thanks for the answer!

[@screamitloud7923]

Kitty is basically Poppy. She’s not choosing a side.

[@user-xb2bd6lu8l]

Justin dancer I think is black

[@pangolinsarecool]

@@thejudgmentalcritter6584 In fairness, she's indifferent on most other things as well

[@KittyOfChess]

Honestly, I think that the way Kitty and her mom's story resolves is very realistic. Dysfunctional families are really hard to fix completely (believe me, I know), so you have to take whatever small victories you can. Most media makes it seem like you have to fix everything and if you don't end up a perfect family, your doing something wrong. It's near impossible to change your parents, and kids in less than ideal situations like this should know that it's okay to not have to fix everything. Small steps are still equally valid.

[@sindeyeu]

I actually think it makes sense that Catty can leave Wonderland whenever she wants. Especially since the Cheshire Cat’s thing has always been phasing in and out of reality. It seems in character to me

[@randymilo212]

1# I didn’t notice how toxic kitty and Cheshire cat’s relationship was until you reviewed it. 2#. I love the outfit but your right none of the characters get focused on when there wearing them ,I feel like wonderland kids should be the getting the outfits. 3# I like your idea of having cursed ones getting outfits. 4# why didn’t ginger get a way to wonderland look since she came to wonderland?

[@bluestar4408]

Maybe the magic? Like the girls used Ravens magic. But the well might not?

[@Stars_to_infinity]

Maybe because Ginger fell through the well to the river of wonder instead of using powers to get there?

[@sage.81]

Anyone else noticed how the story goes from the beginning of the school year which is probably fall, to spring, then it stays in spring until it’s confirmed to be summer in Epic Winter?

[@StephenLynx8492]

Ah, and here I was thinking that with Easter just around the corner, you were going to to the review of Spring Unsprung! I like Alistair Wonderland a lot, since he’s not the stereotype of a hunky guy hero, but rather a different kind of male hero, relying more on his wits than brute force. Considering he’s the son of Alice, this is unsurprising.

[@Sammy_The_Umbreon]

same honestly

[@pikapichupals]

A best and worst designs list would totally rule! Considering all the characters and doll lines EAH has, it would be quite the spread to select from!

[@KittyOfChess]

Spring Unsprung is my favorite special in the show. Not only is it really beautiful, with the visuals and character designs, but it is also a great story. The Wonderlandians are my favorite group in the show, and this story really lets them shine. And I love how it goes into Kitty's relationship with her mother.

[@zocritter]

Lizzie and Kitty got the best special designs!

[@cureice]

Ever After High pours so much love into adapting the characters. It's very creative. It's really strange how romance is handled in some kids shows. Especially when the kids are teenagers and can just date. Yes we want the character design video

[@emilyhouse2498]

I never noticed the breakneck pace until now, maybe it didn’t feel that fast as someone who read the books and knew about some of the newly introduced stuff already. Plus Ginger got introduced in the first episode of season 3, they released the first couple of episodes of the season before the Spring Unsprung special which sounds like a weird decision in retrospect but made sense to familiarise the audience with Ginger a bit before she was semi-relevant here

[@Razorrrrrrrrrrrr]

Loved this special Evil apple was iconic The theory of raven and apple being swapped at birth seems more real from that x 56th like 10th comment

[@GlowBerryPumpkin]

I must be the 63rd or 64th comment. And im the 420th like, noice 👌

[@oliviamads]

Actually, Ginger Breadhouse (along with Helga and Gus Crumb) was introduced in one of the online webisodes on the youtube channel! To fans who watched the webisodes, she was decently well known. She is my second favorite character fr :]

[@invadercat3505]

I'd be down with watching a best and worst designs video! Also, I love your suggestion to redirect Brooke's role to talking with Kitty. Having Brooke just tell Maddie what to do (both in this special and the next) is a lazy resolution stemming from the writers' writing themselves in a corner.

[@cassieopeiia]

i rember as a kid i got a bunny blanc doll cause i loved her design. My fav design was cupid but there were no dolls here also alistair looks amazing

[@cassieopeiia]

kind of unrelated but i always loved having a bit more diversity for skin colors in eah

[@_TinyHyeju_]

If u do a top 10 best/worst designs THATD BE AWESOME!! I always loved the different outfits for the dolls as a kid and was so excited to see who got a new fit! And with EAH the fits are all about fashion/their personality and fairytale, compared to RWBY who have to balance fashion and combat, which I think is an interesting difference EDIT: The Cerise SDCC 2014 doll has my fav design if u choose to look into it :]

[@curlysheep4623]

I feel like they kinda mischaracterized the Cheshire Cat with Kittys mom. I don't think of the Cheshire Cat as a character that causes chaos. Mischievous for sure but not malicious. Also the character design video is definitely something I'd be interested in seeing:)

[@shadowserenity1879]

I agree. I always considered the Cheshire cat a true neutral character. He doesn't go out of his way to cause havoc, but if interested he will tag along

[@luckybug479]

I love your Ever After High reviews! Ever After High is dear and near to my heart and I get so nostalgic watching them! I didn’t really have someone to talk about Ever After High after the friend I used to watch it with ghosted me so it’s been really good for me to watch your reviews. Thank you 💜💜💜💜💜

[@sabrinaking1873]

Spring Unsprung and Way too Wonderland are my least favorite of the specials. I love the Wonderlandians, but I felt like they tried to cram too much into the specials that it ended up overshadowed the wonderlandians. Definately looking forward to your Dragon Games review in the future.

[@cureidolsmile9820]

Top 10 best to worst sound like a great idea, I love so many of the characters designs in this show, I’d love to hear your opinion! Also that rant about Alistair and Bunny’s relationship was cathartic to hear, I hate those types of tropes in media, especially when they don’t get called out

[@p0mp0mpudding-YT]

At first I was confused as to why you didn’t like it, as I loved the Wonderland Special. But that was right before I mixed up Spring Unsprung with Way Too Wonderland, which I think is a better special as far as showing Wonderland goes. (Even if the outfits are a hit or Miss) I literally forgot this special existed lol

Omg. So worth the wait. I miss this series so much and you did amazing. Also I’d love to see you see rank best and worst designs.

[@JesusisKing-u9d]

So with that whole Kitty/Catty dynamic, a while back I actually tried to make a better conclusion just to pass the time, but I didn’t wanna write too much, so it might not be great, but I think it’s a little better. I’ll put it in the replies in case you wanna see it.

[@JesusisKing-u9d]

Catty: What, but... Kitty: You never said I had to go across the board, just to get to you. Catty: Where did you learn to be so devious? Kitty: Haha... -Mom, don't get me wrong, I love you, but... you have to understand some jokes aren't funny. -especially this one. Catty: But... the riddles, the chaos! Don't you think it's wonderful? Kitty: Mom, you know I love a good joke, but this is no joke. You could have hurt them, or, or, you could have destroyed ever after high! -Chaos isn't always fun. And this is one of those times. Catty: I'm sorry Kitty. I thought I was doing the right thing by teaching you to do pranks. And I know I shouldn't have put your friends in danger. -It won't happen again. Do you forgive me? Kitty: Of course. Catty: Thank you my little kitten. -Anyone want tea? Kitty: Uh, mom? Catty: Oh! Oops. Just say the spell backwards. Kitty: Ok. (Spell backwards).

[@shineystarrychain]

you don't know how long i was waiting for this video

[@alicematthews7330]

The top ten best and worst outfits sounds like an amazing video! Though tbf I’d say that about an ever after high content since there’s so little of it on KZbin

[@greyeyes_of_wonderland9298]

I think the reason why Catty can leave Wonderland, is because she can teleport, but she's too rogue to help anyone (and she has control of the well)

[@dioncii8902]

Yea she probably lives right there

[@Maxine_]

I recently remembered that Ever After High exists and I started to see a lot about it, so your videos about EAH started to come to me, and I loved your videos, I love this cartoon so much, but wow, I never noticed how many mistakes they made, but I can't stop liking, it was part of my childhood, i'll love to follow your next videos about EAH, but i'm also scared, way too wonderland is my favorite arc, i'm excited to see what you're going to talk about, I would also like to see the top 10 best looks video

[@thriftqueen1621]

I remember when Spring Unsprung first came out. My younger sister and I woke up super early that day (I think it was a Saturday) so we could watch the new special. It was such an exciting feeling, it being the first one on Netflix. I remember this one being my favorite, and I think it still it honestly (Dragon Games is a close second though). It might just be the nostalgia talking, but Spring Unsprung will always hold a special place in my heart, even if it isn’t as perfect as I once thought it was.

[@TheEvilFlowerReaps]

Evil Apple is SUCH a queen! She was why Spring Unsprung was my favorite special as a kid (and now) Flipping characters on their heads is just an interesting concept to me and she was played SO well, also her roasting charming for being a coward was awesome

[@papkinn]

To be honest i don't like this special mainly because of how questionable choices about Wonderland are... maybe it's just Alice in Wonderland nerd talking through me but i really don't buy Ever After High's wonderland a bit and you can't really excuse everything with "it's just so weird and wacky" when some stuff clearly comes from misunderstanding of source material. That being said i wish series could continue and learn from it mistakes because they got the Madeline character very well. Also even as a kid i had a lot of questions why Bunny's father is humanoid rabbit while she's just magic human with a headband.

[@palomaroggeri8680]

I remember when I was a kid I loved Briar’s outfit so much that I got the doll and I still have it. Its one of my favorite outfits in the series, I don’t know why but I just love it so much!!

[@HappyTheThird]

I might as well write my own review cause I wanna talk about a few things in this special. Let’s start with the pros! 1) A thing I disagree with are the outfits, I understand why people don’t like them but I honestly find them really clever. I love the idea that the dresses are mostly black and white to represent winter and then there are these big, bold, dramatic, colorful flower pieces to show that spring had sprung. I think it was a creative way to tie the dresses to the special and I really love that. 2) I really like Kitty’s relationship with her mom! It gives her so much reason to act the way she does, she looks up to her and wants to impress her. I used to not really like her character before this special, she was kinda annoying and a troublemaker, kinda acting as a semi protagonist. But after this special I really understood her, she became more sympathetic and in later specials became so much nicer. 3) EVIL! APPLE! Gods, I absolutely loved Apple in this special just because of how much of a jerk she was! She had so many iconic moments and lines during this and the way her and Daring interacted never fails to make me laugh. Nothing more to say, just- Evil Apple. Time for the cons! 1) I normally really love world building but I feel this special tried to do too much of that. I get that it was mostly to set up for the next special but I feel like most of the random unnecessary stuff could have just been moved over to that next said special. Such as most of the things from Wonderland. 2) This is just a personal annoyance, but why did the evil spell come off so- weirdly? Like Bunny and Al were just talking and then it just shifted to “Damn- we gotta do something about this evil magic before it destroys Wonderland.” Like- mate back up, you’ve lost me! I feel it would have been better if this was hinted at in Thronecoming, that way we would have at least had a grasp at it and understand why Al is so worried. 3) Again, maybe just a personal annoyance but I always wondered how Darling got in and out of Wonderland. We know that the Well Of Wonder is the only way in and out of Wonderland, we also know it’s never in one place, so how the hell did Darling find it? Did she steal Lizzy’s book? Also, the well was blocked off, so how did she and Ginger get back to Ever After when it was closed? Is there another way out? It’s just something that always confused me. That’s my review on the matter, at least all the things that weren’t already mentioned. I really liked this review it was very well made and had pros and cons and even ways that it could be made better! Really enjoyed it! ^^

[@JhoF79]

I love your reviews, can't wait for your take on way too wonderland, is my favorite one and I love the dresses, it also focus on my favorite character, Lizzie Hearts

[@medea__witchhh]

edited ramble while watching the vid: would definitely love to see a top 10 of the eah designs whatt im genuinely curious on why you think the way too wonderland designs are bad. will have to wait when the review comes out then lol EVIL APPLE >:DDD ok last ramble. genuinely appreciate your eah content/reviews. eah holds a lot of nostalgia for me and seeing it still being talked about in 2022 is just

[@antondevonlh]

As someone who has never seen any of this show I am still always excited to hear your reviews of it. A top 10 best and worst designs sounds like it would be fun XD Shame that this special probably could have used an extra 30 minutes, from the sounds of it, to just flesh out the pacing a little, but your telling of it makes it very clear and concise when it comes to the story beats, so well done there. Can't wait for the next one! ^.^

[@OverlordMaldeus]

I wonder if the outfits/dolls are designed first, and then plots written to accommodate them? It would explain why they made a spring set instead of a topsy-turvy set.

[@izzisart]

I deeply suspect so. It would explain the sudden last minute inclusion of Blondie and Cupid in the Thronecoming episode when they suddenly get shoehorned into the plot.

[@Karlz1212]

What I truly liked about this event was that, even under the Swap spell, Hunter and Ashlynn still love one another, even if it’s in a...more gross way Considering how the spell works and what’s done to its victims, one would’ve thought that the spell would make Hunter and Ashlynn hate one another, but it didn’t It’s one of the few things I genuinely enjoyed from this special

I completely forgot that Brooke shows up for the first time here and not in Way Too Wonderland. Honestly, I thought that was her first appearance

[@lavenderandchrysanthemums9441]

When this came out, I couldn't actually watch it first. I didn't have a netflix account at the time(nor the money for it). When I finally got a chance to watch it, I was so disappointed. It just didn't meet my expectations. It felt so weird and disjointed to me. I really wished it was better. I really liked the concepts it brought forth and really wish they were better. Also, I always felt that Ginger got SOOO robbed, she's such a fu but heavily underutilized character.

[@Mollieslay]

I’m so excited for you to do Dragon Games! If you plan on it ofc. Dragon games is my favorite special

[@user-ly1ii6ts7b]

You should read the shannon hale ever after high book series. In the 3rd book Cedar is a main character and it went more in depth on how she feels about being a puppet and her insecurities it was really interesting

[@maddiemcnugget1076]

I will add to the pile of "Yes for top 10 best and worst designs" Honestly the Ever After High design crew is really creative with their interpretations, but I agree that while it's diverse, it's diverse in one direction (i.e. dresses and hair). I'd like it if it was diverse in... most if not all directions (body types, skin color, shoes, types of skirts/bottoms. I love skirts, but I'm like... I'm sure some wear pants. And some do! But they could delve into more pant types like Prince-looking pants with ruffles and stuff).

[@Mr.EintheMorning]

Wouldn't it be great if Critter's videos on this series inspired someone to pick it back up again? Not incredibly likely, but hey, the internet has a way of reviving interest in overlooked media. Case in point, these videos.

[@courtneycalvert185]

I wish too, but unfortunately Ever After probably won’t be coming back due to Disney. There was a huge legal battle over it because the Mattel is also in charge of Disney’s dolls. Mattel was doing so well with Ever After and Monster High dolls that they weren’t focusing much attention on Disney’s dolls, so Disney crippled Ever After. Obviously I’m loosely going over what happened,, I can’t give a perfect description off the top of my head, but there are tons of videos going over what happened and what caused the death of Ever After. I highly recommend!!

[@embrownwrites]

Yes!!!!!! Please do a Ever After High design rank! I would love that!

[@nevermind6786]

I used to have a crush on kitty and her mom 💀

[@KeeKage37]

I gotta agree. Spring unsprung, just has way too much in it. From new characters, new worlds, new relationships, new dynamics, and a new event. There is just way too much that’s tossed at you all at once. It’s like someone tossing two dozen eggs at you and trying to catch them all. Some plot points resolve fine. While others get a hastily rushed ending, and others just end with little resolution at all. There are some interesting plot points. But it’s just too rushed and crammed in to properly give the time it deserves. And thank you! I also hate the tired old trope of “I really like this person, and get so jealous if someone else gets too friendly with them. But it’s not like we’re in a relationship or anything.” Ether pull the trigger, and admit there is a relationship between you two, or let them see other people. Unfortunately the relationship between cat, and her mother is another tired trope too. The “parent that rides and undermines there kid all the time. But I’d actually proud of them when they stand up to them.” It’s just a half hazard quick end to a complicated issue that they don’t actually want to dig too deep in. But will use it anyway for drama. I’d also wouldn’t mind a top ten ever after high fashion line up. Good video.

It would be awesome to see you make a video about some of your favorite character designs!

[@vinn3983]

If I may, I'd love to bring up the ridiculous amount of queer coding in this series. Rebel and Royal are labels, just like gender and sexuality. Everyone is forcibly assigned one or the other regardless of what they actually consider themselves or if they resonate with either of them at all. Ashlyn was shamed for dating a rebel, similar to women being shamed for dating women. Kitty doesn't identify with either Rebel or Royal and gets upset when people address her as either. Similar to nonbinary people who don't like being addressed as a guy or girl, and just want to be themselves. I can't remember what their names are but one of the O'Hair twins had a whole episode where she couldn't decide between Royal and Rebel even though everyone expected her to pick one. She decides to pick both. Similar to how gender fluid people or anyone on the bisexual spectrum don't want to "choose one." Don't get me started on the neurodivergent coding for Maddie. She's fundamentally different from everyone else but her friends don't treat her like she is different, they recognize that she's mad but don't care that she is. When Dexter has a negative reaction to Maddie being "mad", she owns it and doesn't care that he's weirded out by the way she is. THIS IS A 2013 SHOW, THIS IS INCREDIBLE REPRESENTATION.

[@mareofmaers3590]

I did not know I need Kitty and Poppy being nb representation, but you proved me wrong. Let's not forget about Darling Charming being literally Apple's prince of destiny and I don't care if they tried to explain this away with some power of friendship stuff, Darling is a lesbian and Apple is bi.

I think a top 10 best and worst eah designs is a great idea! Also I've been wondering if you're interested in talking about monster high?

[@thejudgmentalcritter6584]

I've thought about it! Maybe this year around October I'll finally get around to it?

[@youwishforbile]

[@starofjustice1]

8:00 We haven't gotten to it and I'm worried.

[@rileyywhited]

EVIL APPLE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!! Also I would adore that top ten list

[@idkputwhatever6614]

I hate how in this special people say maddies dad is a dilf, but nobody is talking about kitty's mom

[@cardyn1836]

EXACTLY I had such a crush on her as a kid 😔

[@justfamily6501]

Yesss please give us the eah outfits ranking :D

[@SoulQueenoD]

Do the other Wonderlanians not hear the Narrators? Maddie and Kitty can but the others can't?

[@newbiethenoob5371]

It could be that they are both wonderlandian rebels

the sumery feels like an awkward update where a teen is trying to write down everything that happened in their school like 'kyle tripped over a rock. the history teacher laughed awkwardly. the science teacher slapped him' lmao
