I wasn't sure I would like the newest Anne of Green Gables because I have always loved the Megan Follows one, but it is excellent, and they are repeating it several times this week for anyone who is interested.

I am going to look for it, I love Anne of Green Gables. My real name is not actually Zoe I have to admit, it was the name of my dog, my real name is Anne and I was very picky about the E when I was younger.

It actually has multiple episodes that are going to continue. Martin Sheen plays Marilla's brother. The woman who plays Marilla is excellent, but I will always consider Colleen Dewhurst as the the "real" Marilla.

There was also a Pollyanna movie but not the Disney version with Hayley Mills. I want to see that one now.

I use the awesome power of the internet and my super intellect to find these important answers.

HA HA.... So, do so... I looked and find nothing.

I did see and find this movie the day it came out though. Nothing shows for the future.

It does no good to say there will be future episodes and not tell when or supply a link.

My first thought was that Megan Follows was older when she played Anne, but it seems the actresses are of similar acting age. Megan did have a brilliant interpretation of Anne. But I like this version also.

I watched the new Anne and kept picturing the original actors. If I had never seen the original Anne of Green Gables (multiple times) this would be good but it's not for me.
