Sofia the Fist S1E10 “The Tri Kingdom Picnic”
Royal Parents! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
Also, this episode basically unloaded a metric ton of world building details. Namely that Enchancia shares it’s borders with Wei-Ling and Khaldoun. Bother realistic geography, this is a world where horses fly and rabbits beat-box, so I’m not concerned!
Khalhoun is presided over by Queen Anya and her as of yet unnamed husband. They have three children: Princess Maya, Prince Khalid, and Princess Leena. Wei-Ling is ruled by Emperor Quon and Empress Lin-Lin. Their children are Princess Jun and Prince Jin.
I’m really loving Queen Anya, particularly her epic snake themed walking stick.
Princess Jasmine!
Wait, the actual princesses are on this show? Shit, guess I’m going to start watching it then.
Yes, when Sofia is in extreme trouble, her Amulet of Avalor can summon other Disney Princesses for help. So far though, she’s only summoned Cinderella during the premiere movie. But now we’ve got confirmation that Jasmine will show up too, and Aurora sometime in the future as well.
Also: Flora, Fauna, and Merriweather are headmistresses of Sofia’s school.
Seriously though, I really do recommend Sofia the First. It is very charming.
“Sofia, now that we live in the castle…you’ll have your OWN room!”
“Yes!”
…Are we gonna talk about how Miranda joined in with Sofia on that “Yes!” I always laugh at that part because I can’t help but think it’s the only adult-orientated thing they’ve managed to slip into a show that airs on Disney Junior. Because obviously Sofia’s been deprived of having a bedroom of her very own for all these years and meanwhile with Miranda it’s going to be a mixture of “I love being a mother but I need my own personal space sometimes” and ” ROLY-POLY TIME IN BED WITH MY KING HUSBAND.”
This is what I love about the character Queen Miranda. She’s not written just to be “the mom” or an extension of Sofia.Rather than a simple dispenser of a given episode’s moral with no depth, the show never forgets that she’s an adult woman with her own thoughts, wants, and feelings independent and removed from her daughter’s world.
Quotes like the one saftasming notes above demonstrate that Miranda, perhaps for a very long time, has been desiring her own space and has plans for the King’s sexy thighs. There are other prime examples, like Miranda’s “I say ‘no’ to the children all the time” (paraphrased) from “A Royal Mess”, not to mention her general tough love approach to dealing with Sofia’s social blunders in “The Big Sleepover” and “Baileywick’s Day Off”. These all help to paint the picture of a woman with her own drives and internal compass, who seeks leisure time with her husband and isn’t going to spout empty platitudes to her daughter for the sake of image. If you interrupt Miranda’s hubby time, she’s going to let you know. If you do something Miranda finds rude or unacceptable, she’s going to let you know. And this all feels very genuine because Miranda feels like a real person, not a general purpose ‘mom’ cut-out prop that so many cartoon shows tend to have.
Anyways, Happy Mother’s Day.

greyliliy replied to your post: What do you think of the Disney fairies line of…
They really are great~ Still need to watch the last one…. *hugs the 3rd one to bits and pieces*
Secret of the Wings is really, really excellent. The animation is, of course, the best the series has ever been, the new characters are interesting, and the music in particular was quite nice. I encourage you to pick it up on Blu-ray as soon as possible.
Princess Jasmine!

Exclusive Toon Barn Doc McStuffins Interview with Doc’s voice actress: Kiara Muhammad
Kiara: I was really shocked because it was one of my first voice-over roles. To get a lead in a series, I was kind of proud, but I was really surprised, because I know there were people who were in the voice-over industry longer than me. But, I was really happy. I have to be doing something right if I got the role over all these people.

I don’t watch “Sofia The First”, yet I am laughing at this tweet!
I think you know what you must do…
You’ll have to start watching Sofia the First, or at least Doc McStuffins.
The shimmering world of shows for preschoolers awaits you…
I don’t think I should…
Then again, I like “My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic” and “Littlest Pet Shop” (The Hub).
And I’d gotta admit, the drawing style of Sofia The First is kinda cute.
Sofia the First really is super cute. Though I’ll take this time to say that the animation and texturing on Doc McStuffins is a bit higher quality. And it is also a super cute show. If you like MLP or LPS, you’d probably like Sofia the First and Doc McStuffins.
Speaking of The Hub though, Transformers Rescue Bots is another very upbeat, fun, and optimistic kids show. Unfortunately, I can’t speak to other shows for younger kids on that Network like the new Care Bears or Strawberry Shortcake.

Anonymous asked:
that's a lot of princesses. where are all the princes?
Oh, there are princes at Royal Prep: like Prince Hugo, Prince Zandar, and of course, Prince James. True, they don’t get as much focus, but this is a Disney Princess brand show after all.
But in the episode I recently screencaped (“The Princess Test”), the princesses were having a special test on etiquette by themselves. Hence the lack of Prince.
Gasp! Another new Princess appeared briefly during “The Princess Test”
She was only in the posture-test scene, so I didn’t pick her out at first. But she also looks pretty cool, lovely hair.

My descent into Princess Obsession continues…
*EDIT*
According to “The Tri-Kingdom Picnic”, her name is Princess Leena.
are there any instances of characters on TV who are shown to write fanfiction, who are NOT consistently portrayed as “weird” or “desperate”?
Well….
They don’t mention fanfiction unfortunately, but Disney’s Filmore had an interesting episode in its second season called “The…
Fillmore was such a good show…
It really was… *sighs dreamily*
