Looking for the series itself? Also in this series: Mary Poppins Returns (2018)

Both keep coming back to the same thing: musical

Both are working the same pair: brothers and sisters, nanny
The difference: 29 years apart, and the 1990s show

Both are built on the same subject: magic
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair


Both land wit and play at once
The difference: Sits closer to adventure than Mary Poppins does

The same preoccupation in both: nanny

Warm where it counts, cozy underneath

Dreamlike comedy in both cases

Family with a pulse of wit, in both cases

One thread runs through both: parents and children

Fantasy built on play, twice over
The difference: Leans harder into drama than Mary Poppins does

Both lean on warmth more than on comedy
