It's true - my wife even acknowledged yesterday that she wants to rewatch the whole thing because when she watched the first few she was dismissive. The series just grows on you. Even the hostile audiences! The best thing for me was the experience of watching the series with my three year old (actually, she turns 4 monday). I plan to watch the series again every year with her - I think there's something in there for her all the way to adolescence. She also insists it's "Doll" and not "Love" - who am I to argue? My women control my life :) Pixy, just read your post via Steven.

I was entranced the first time I saw the opening credits, back before it was even aired in Japan, I think, but then I ran aground on the early twinkle episodes. A shame, as it really picks up a couple of episodes later. I agree that the Summer Special is a perfect and necessary coda to the series. Oh, and I'm glad I finally got to find out what the first epsiode opening was all about. By the way, it's Sugar Baby <i>Love</i>. :) Just finished watching Sugar myself.

I had completely forgotten about that. That information does change my opinion - it does seem more likely now that Ingrid and Sugar's mother may have been a pair after all. My main concern was the geographic one, but that's pretty much answered.

It was Regina's house, the one Ingrid had grown up in. She'd moved away, got married, had a kid, and eventually returned to her home village (after a divorce or when she became a widow?) to live with her mother again. So if Ingrid and Sugar's mother had partnered up, that's the house where they would have done it.
