Okay in all honesty, I only got a few episodes in. I know this is all going to sound heretical but the episodes I saw, were basically the old ones redrawn and I kept thinking, "Why would you spend all this money to make a new Sailor Moon series if you are going to do absolutely nothing new with it? Why not just digitally remaster and rerelease the old series? After all, it'd be a cheaper way of screwing with the fans."

But then again, I'm one of those weirdoes who loved the hell out of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon. Yeah, it's cheesy as hell at times (especially the fight scenes), but I do like how it tried to do something new with the series, especially the darker interpretation they took, regarding the Fall of the Moon Kingdom. I'm kind of sad it got canceled and we won't ever know how the writers involved would write the Dark Moon Family arc.

DA. Yeah if I'm honest Crystal is kind of boring when it doesn't diverge from the manga because I already know the story and the animation is not pretty enough to make it feel justified putting it to screen (in fact visually I prefer the manga over Crystal's art.)

They really should have put in SOME filler. We didn't need to have as much as the original series but I think 26 episodes would have been a nice size for just the Dark Kingdom arc.

The first episodes of the original series also followed the manga quite closely, which is why the beginning are both seasons are pretty similar. The differences don't really start until after later in the series, though Crystal gets to basically all points a hell of a lot faster than the original (IIRC, the original had 5+ episodes of Usagi on her own as Sailor Moon, which was pretty painful to watch since she's a pretty annoying character before her development kicks in).

And PGSM is awesome. I still think it's the best incarnation of the story, since it's the only one that managed to get the pacing right (original anime is too slow, manga/Crystal are too fast).
