I'm a fan of sentimental, sweet and love-y shows, so I enjoyed the first season a lot. I'm Canadian, so I loved that it was sent in a small town in Canada. I loved the characters, the set, the costumes, the storyline - it was all good.
But then the second season happened and everything changed. The characters became blander, the town became more refined. Women were wearing outfits that was not at all believable for that time period or setting. And the fact that they were wearing makeup and styling their hair also annoyed me. Jack wore denim jeans in one episode, which is also not believable. The costume designer took many liberties here, clearly. As did the hair and make up team. From there, it just went downhill.
I want to love this show as much as I love "Sarah, Plain and Tall," "Anne of Green Gables" and "Little House on the Prairie" but it's just making it so hard to. It'd be amazing if they just followed the era! Bring back the magic of the first season, please and thank you!
(And judging by the many reviews here, I'm clearly not the only one who thinks this)
