I got introduced to this show because one of my favorite shows, H2O - Just Add Water is created by the same people. When I first heard that this show is going to be released, the premise seemed to me to be somewhat less interesting than H2O, however I try not to judge shows which I haven't seen yet and recently I have had a chance to watch several episodes. And while I still like H2O more, The Elephant Princess is definitely better than I expected.
The concept of a character discovering a parallel world where she is from might have a problem with staying original, but here it's executed well. The storyline becomes really interesting as the season progresses, especially in the last few episodes and although I'm not really a fan of shows where characters have to use their powers to fight some sort of evil (which is one of the things that separates this show from H2O, at least for most of the time), The Elephant Princess is interesting and different enough to stand out.
I would also like to note the music, especially the score (although Alex's band's songs are good too). It was written (again) by the same people as the H2O soundtrack, which is my favorite TV score of all time, and while some music elements sound almost like they're copied from there and so feel sort of out of the place, other original music really fits the show and it's very good overall.
It seems that this show isn't that well known yet, but I guess it has several factors that might help with that in the future, at least I definitely hope so. For me it's now a show that I really like, and there aren't very many of those.moreless
