Ah, so there ARE a few similarities.  That would explain why YTV picked it up, since they had so much success with Sailor Moon.
But I will check it out. Hopefully there's something worth watching this fall.  |

Well, it does have a few superficial similarities with Sailor Moon. With a short, vague description, I could easily imagine a summary making it sound like a Sailor Moon ripoff.
They're both good shows, anyway. Don't really think Winx Club is a ripoff, though. Except possibly the transformation sequences... yeah, those had to be in the show somewhere . |

It's actually supposed to be on YTV this fall actually.
Good thing you gave an accurate description of it, Frank - YTV's made it sound like a Sailor Moon ripoff.  |

Hey wasn't that show on FoxBox or something. Because it sound really familiar...
Forget listening. Seems hardly anyone's even looked at it. Almost as if they have a sixth sense that they're not going to like what's inside....
Anyway, yes, it's on the FoxBox. |

Someone's must have noticed Winx Club. Really, such an underrated gem. It's about some fairies battling some witches... but that's a pretty bland description.
Bloom is an earth girl, just minding her own business, but sees another girl being attacked by a big ogre. Well... guess all ogres are big, anyway. Anyway, he's beating up on the girl, and Bloom yells to leave her alone, and attack her instead. How she intended to fight the big ogre is anyone's guess, but it turns out Bloom herself has strong fairy magic within her. Turns out the other girl was a fairy, going by Stella, who figures Bloom must be a fairy.
And so, life is normal, with Bloom going to the school of fairies, Alfea, along with Stella, and three other fairies. And an entire schoolfull of other fairies that don't matter all that much. They just go to school, and Bloom tries to understand herself: how is she a fairy? How does she use her powers? What, exactly, are her powers?
It's not all so easy for Bloom and her friends though, as the witches are evil, three in particular. Well, guess most cartoon witches are, but I guess these three witches are even eviler. Some of the others seem more affected by peer pressure, but that's for another day. These three witches, they want Bloom's power, and that really puts her in danger once the three witches learn this. Why do they want Bloom's power? They want to rule the land. Or the universe. Or all that exists. Something like that.
And that's how all goes. Or the short version of it all. Someone else must like the show, or be madly addicted to the show, or something... right?
