I don't know why so many say the performance was lackluster. Peter Pan Live looks pretty entertaining.

"The last thing he ever said to me was, 'Just always be waiting for me, and then some night you will hear me crowing.'"

"Yes."

"But, alas, he forgot all about me," Wendy said it with a smile. She was as grown up as that. . . .

And then one night came the tragedy. It was the spring of the year, and the story had been told for the night, and Jane was now asleep in her bed. Wendy was sitting on the floor, very close to the fire, so as to see to darn, for there was no other light in the nursery; and while she sat darning she heard a crow. Then the window blew open as of old, and Peter dropped in on the floor.

He was exactly the same as ever, and Wendy saw at once that he still had all his first teeth.

He was a little boy, and she was grown up. She huddled by the fire not daring to move, helpless and guilty, a big woman.

"Hullo, Wendy," he said, not noticing any difference, for he was thinking chiefly of himself; and in the dim light her white dress might have been the nightgown in which he had seen her first.

"Hullo, Peter," she replied faintly, squeezing herself as small as possible. Something inside her was crying "Woman, Woman, let go of me." . . .

"Peter," she said, faltering, "are you expecting me to fly away with you?"

"Of course; that is why I have come." He added a little sternly, "Have you forgotten that this is spring cleaning time?"

She knew it was useless to say that he had let many spring cleaning times pass.

"I can't come," she said apologetically, "I have forgotten how to fly."

"I'll soon teach you again."

"O Peter, don't waste the fairy dust on me."

She had risen; and now at last a fear assailed him. "What is it?" he cried, shrinking.

"I will turn up the light," she said, "and then you can see for yourself."

For almost the only time in his life that I know of, Peter was afraid. "Don't turn up the light," he cried.

She let her hands play in the hair of the tragic boy. She was not a little girl heart-broken about him; she was a grown woman smiling at it all, but they were wet eyed smiles.

Then she turned up the light, and Peter saw. He gave a cry of pain; and when the tall beautiful creature stooped to lift him in her arms he drew back sharply.

"What is it?" he cried again.

She had to tell him.

"I am old, Peter. I am ever so much more than twenty. I grew up long ago."

"You promised not to!"

"I couldn't help it."

You know how bad something must be when you text one of your best friends that you're watching it and their immediate response is "how bad?"

Watching NBC's Peter Pan (Part 1)

The Bad

Me: The only good thing so far seems to be Christian Borle and Kelli O'Hara.

Me: Meh... she's not the strongest singer, but I'm sold on the boyish charm.

Me: I'm sorry... but Christopher Walken, you need to emote. I'm not even close to being afraid of you than the story expects us to and you're about as expressive as Kristen Stewart right now.

Me: OMG! It's "massacre Indians, kill little boys!!!" Stop dumbing it down for younger audiences!!! Sheesh!!!

Me: Those Indian costumes.... no words. Just...tacky.

Me: I see where they're trying to go with the Lost Boys.... but I'm not buying it. And no one who's not read the book will probably get it either.

Me: Ugh... This is annoying me. I'm gonna turn this off and suffer through the rest later.

The Good?

Me: OMG that crocodile!!!! YES YES YES!!!!! XD
