Ugh!

The animals wake her up and find they can communicate with each other. What's the first thing they do? Ask for food as payment for all they do.

The princesses or whoever never asked for help. It was the animals who took it upon themselves to help the princess get dressed and clean up.

A lyric states, "did you think we were volunteers?" or something like that. Yeah, I kinda did. You come in, do all this stuff and you're a frickin' rabbit! You're supposed to eat outside and forage!

The character Popov; "So, you think you can waltz?"

uh, no. That's why they're in your class, Einstein!

Mispronouncing Cedric. It's either a power and control tactic of Sofia's or she's really that lame-brained. At however old she is, probably still can't pronounce chrysalis.

So, all the magic and everything enchanted is reserved for royalty?

I hate this movie and I will kill myself when the show starts (just kidding, don't call the cops)

I'm with you! This is horrendous writing, even for a toddler show. I already pointed out about the magic amulet that was too good for the King's own flesh and blood. More stupidity:

Cedric has this great sinister plan to have Sofia say the spell and put everyone to sleep at the ball...... why can't he do it himself and just take the amulet?

Sofia wears the same purple dress every day (as someone else pointed out, she has a closet full of ballgowns) And yet, people at the ball "GASP" in awe as she makes her entrance.... in the same purple dress.

Cinderella points her in the direction of her step-sister who didn't make it to the dance because she is the only other person in the kingdom who wasn't at the ball when she cast her spell ...... because the castle has no housekeepers, cooks, stable workers, etc.

None of this makes me madder than the fact that at least once a day I catch myself singing "I'm finding out what being royal's all about!!!!"

Just as many cartoons do, what's your point????

Just got secretly engaged to the best guy ever!!

Everyone else at the party got a different outfit, why wouldn't the Guest of Honor get a brand new dress?

Also, my point was really more the fact that everyone gasped in awe but they've all seen her in that dress before.

Also, lighten up, geez, can't we adults who are forced to watch this toddler show over and over again at least have some conversation about it?

Lol these are the exact same things I've been complaining about! Although my husband (who's home with our daughter during the day and has unfortunately been subjected to this poorly written suckfest even more than I have) pointed out to me that the dress she wears to the ball is slightly different from the one she wears everyday. It took me a couple times watching but if you look closely the pattern at the bottom is different and it is more sparkly. Dear gawd I have seen this movie too many times

"Cedric has this great sinister plan to have Sofia say the spell and put everyone to sleep at the ball...... why can't he do it himself and just take the amulet?"

I haven't seen this movie/series yet so correct me if I'm wrong, but could it be that the spell could only be cast by one with a pure, innocent heart as they wouldn't abuse it?

The real question is: why was he stupid enough to be somewhere he'd be affected as well?
