I love the books, but the show was just okay
I agree that they should've had writers who actually read the books or had KA be a part of the show. but since neither of those happened we got stuck with a werid subplot(the disk), THE WRONG ANIMALS(DUMBASSES!!!! they didnt even get the right type of hawk for Tobias) Rubber arm wrestling Andalites(very sad) no Taxxon(sadder)
The only good things I can think of is tht they made Cassie hot, they had her be allergic to the alligator instead cuz it was more ironic and cuz Rachel had way too many episodes, the actors were a bit too old but they were still good, and the Hork Bajir were okay(just wish we could've seen more of them)
