Ariel Makes Waves

[LittleAriel]

I just received an order I placed from Amazon for a paperback book "Ariel Makes Waves". I was attracted by the beautiful cover and amazed at the original artwork throughout the book. Haven't had a chance to read it yet, but hopefully it's as nice as the art!
I think this is one that should be in every TLM collection

Judging by the cover it DEFINITLY is a prequel

BUT While typing this The Disney Jr site has ALL Eps of Little Mermaid TV series on site (least trying to with this substandard computer) watching Charmed right now Ariel is about to fall prey to The thing in the Great Abyss (One of my favorite eps)

That sounds like an awesome book.
I'll try to get a copy somehow.

I kindof wish they did more Ariel&sisters plots, as they never really do it onscreen.
Beached (an episode of the tv series) is the only one I can think of.

But given that Ariel has six sisters (say that seven times fast!), I think it would be best to have just one of them per story, otherwise there's too much going on and the plot can't really be focussed.

YOU DID see Ariel's beginng right?


EEL Electric City featured Alana

PLUS a series of books were printed starting in 1992 that featured more of Ariel's sisters THERE Aquata was the eldest Then Andrina Then Arista Attina Adela Alana

BUT In the video Ariel's Begining Attina Alana Arista or Aquata Adella Andrina

Also going by 1992
Aquata Eldest responsible on
Andrina Mellow Laid Back
Arista Excluding Ariel The Troublemake
Attina Middle Child shy
Adella The Boy Crazy one or the shy fat one Essentiallt the actress Delta Burke
Alana The sensitive caring one

BUT IN vid
Attina The eldest Responsible
Alana Obsessed with hair
Aquata switched roles with Attina
Arista A dumb Blonde
Adella see above
Andrina still laid back BUT now the youngest not counting Ariel

Yes, I did see Ariel's beginning, but it wasn't about the sisters individually, they were just utilised as a group.
Which doesn't allow for any significant character development.
As far as I can tell, that movie was all about Triton and Ariel with some Sebastian as a side plot.

I haven't seen Eel-lectric City in a while, so I can't recall specifically what happened in that episode.

In Eel Electric city Ariel Alana Pearl go to the BIG city unescorted

If you can access US Disney site Disney Jr you can watch the ep there


You are down under right? I know it's a different set up some material in US is there such as Puzzling Springs from the Faries line

Or Try You Tube sometimes the forign duddbed episodes are not taken down

Watched Metal Fish in Russian once

I have no access to US sites, not when it's for TV shows.
I don't fully understand why, but a US site won't stream television to an non-US viewer.

And yes, I am Australian.
I haven't bothered much with TV in years, mostly because the Free2Air channels aren't showing repeats of the shows I like and in most (all!) cases, cancel the new ones I like without finishing the plot.

I think for Disney specific shows, they're on the Disney Cable channel.
I don't have that service, so I can't speak from personal experience.

In Australia, they only put Disney cartoons on at about 7-9am every Saturday.
But I don't know if they still do that, that information is from 6 years ago.
And it's only the recent ones, whatever is their "current hit show".
Being an older show, TLM will never be shown.
