What I love about this version of Sinbad is ...
... its unpretentiousness.
The characters are lovable in their flaws,
and there is a tongue-in-cheek strain throughout the episodes.
In the one with the changeling witch aboard,
when what's inside the hold of the ship was battling against the door to get out,
Rina after being reassured by its handler that it's harmless remarked deadpan :
" Whatever, but it doesn't sound very friendly."
What a shame that there won't be a season 2 ...
