So here is one of those things that I feel pressured to like because its seen as a "classic". Well, I don't like Pippi. I find her incredibly irritating. I gave it a go though. I feel bad, I should like this, I just don't. If she was a real person I'd cross the street to avoid her. Ugh.

I remember not liking the cartoon when I was a child, I thought as an adult I could appreciate her more. Nope. I don't find her cute, or quirky, or funny. Just irritating.

The story isn't that great but what remains remarkable about Pippi after all these years is that she's still original. She doesn't play by anyone else's rules or need anyone and there's not many characters like her.
