It’s no secret that Rapunzel is my favorite Disney princess and my overall fave.

But even then, I can admit that Tiana deserved to have her own series more than Rapunzel ever did. Because Rapunzel’s story came to an end with her movie and the short film that came as an extra. That is why the series did not really need to answer anything and invented the whole storyline from practically nothing (not a bad thing in itself but that is what they did).

Tiana’s story is still left open as she only now starts to really run her restaurant, facing all the challenges of Orleans in 1920s. Not to mention that Naveen is still the crown prince (taking his right as the older son and heir away would be a lot more complicated and cruel than just cutting him off and making him leave the country for a while so I don’t believe his parents did that). How will Tiana compromise between being a princess and owning a restaurant? How will she and Naveen balance his duties as the heir to the crown? Will she be ready to become queen eventually? Her series would basically write itself. Add some comedy about how a reptile will get used to a life as a member of a human band.

Not to mention, the settings. Tangled is set in your typical anachronistic European fantasy land. Princess and The Frog is set in 1920 New Orleans. There is no question which setting is more unique and which has been done a lot before. 

I love and adore Tangled and Tangled Series, but that does not prevent me from knowing Tiana deserves more attention and love from Disney. Tiana was first in line for a sequel to her adventures and the sooner she gets that, the better.
