Funny with heart.
The pace

What might put you off
  • Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.

Having grown up in a world of manufactured happiness, Lucy, the cynical teenage daughter of a idealistic theme park princess mom, wants to get out and experience something real. When Ian, the new park owner's son, arrives and sweeps her off her feet, Lucy is left wondering if fairy tale endings do exist after all. But when a scandalous secret turns her life upside down, she learns Happyland is far from a walk in the park.
