invisibleunicornninja I love the concept of time travel. So many different shows and movies use it in so many creative and interesting ways. There are endless possibilities. All you need is a competent writer and some established rules. This show fails on so many levels. The Time Travel - There is no consistency to what the main characters can do and what their actions will do. There are a few rules, but they are often ignored in favor of some random gag. The Comedy - This show really fails here. Before I go into how bad most of the humor is, I will admit that there are a few gags that I remember working. In one episode they go into the future and everyone has iPhones that are the size of iPads, which was pretty funny. There were a lot of other sight gags there as well. They don't work anymore because I'm pretty sure that episode took place in 2018 and its now 2018 and the hoverboard is dead and phones aren't that big yet. Its like how Back To The Future II's prediction on what 2015 was going to be like was vastly different from reality, but it was still kinda funny. There's another gag where the main characters keep jumping back and forth through time so that the one girl can roast some other person in class. Basically they work out the best responses through time travel and its actually pretty funny. Other than those and a few other gags that usually sacrifice the show's own logic, most of the humor is pretty lame and over-reliant on random s*** happening. A giant cake falling down some stairs between every scene is not a joke. A lama out of nowhere is not a joke. Except for very few scenes, the writers clearly don't understand comedy and think that random things happening and references are jokes. There are a lot of gags that would've worked better if the show had more rules, if they didn't go on too long, and if the acting was better. Also, I think that this show was over-reliant on internet culture - which changes pretty much every month at the longest. Unless your show is made in a week and specifically comments on current events, like South Park, its probably not a good idea to put memes in your show.The Acting - The acting on this show is pretty bad, which isn't helped by the poor script. These characters are so melodramatic and cringeworthy its hard to care about any of them. There are some interesting aspects but nothing is done with them. The Sets - Thought there are a few sets that are used multiple times, like most sit-coms of this type, they actually have a very good design. Everything here looks nice, though you can tell it is cheap. Its clear where the budget went. Honestly, I would've preferred it if the story made sense but the sets were terrible. That would've been far more entertaining. This show really could've worked with a better director and a better writer.

michaelkwhite 1. First off, I see people misunderstanding the time travel logic so I gotta set this straight.Every time travel device in fiction allows effects to exist for which no cause ever manifests. That is how time travel in TV and movies always works.In the first place, Cyd and Shelby got their powers in an alternate past. In the timeline that began at the end of the first episode, the event that caused them to gain their powers never happened. That isn't a plot hole, that's how it works. Time travel couldn't work differently, anyway.After Cyd and Shelby jumped back and made it so Barry never got into science, they still have time travel power in the present because they aren't from that timeline. They are from the timeline where they do have time travel power. It's no different.A question arises in the 1950s episode: why did Shelby transform into a girl with a different grandfather? Well, the answer is just her existence isn't to be presumed because it took place before she was born. That may not seem logical but it is an answer. There is always an explanation for these things and I'm certain BFW is always consistent with its own assumptions.2. The twins: Brett and Chet weren't very interesting to begin with but their story came to be about learning to become different people and accept the other for who he is. It wasn't extremely interesting but it was better than lame gags.3. Comparing to GMW and other Disney shows: a lot of people complain that Cydby are a knockoff of Rilaya but this doesn't make any sense. If you watch the show you know their personalities are nothing like Riley and Maya. As an anxious girl and a spontaneous girl? They aren't different from Rocky and Cece, Miley and Lily, Lindy and Logan, etc. Rilaya are a knockoff of Cory and Shawn anyway so this is kind of a pointless argument.4. This thing always happens where young people grow up and the new shows seem childish compared to the old ones. It's in your head. A lot of criticism towards BFW sounds like wishing that Disney would make something very different or less imaginative rather than judging the show on its merits.Okay, let me assess BFW on it's merits. This show is constantly touching without being overly sentimental. The overarching plot lines are actually suspenseful and interesting. The main villains, Janet and Sebastian, were funny and drove the plot. Shelby being anxious and self- absorbed, Cyd being exuberant and aimless--they are a hilarious pair. The parents were such parents. Parents on these shows are usually silly but Norm and Astrid were both realistic and funny, somehow a perfect balance.The tensions between Cyd and Shelby were valid and the time travel gimmick was valuable in figuring them out. The creators kept finding brilliant new ways to make the gimmick relevant and operate the plot. Friendship is all about trade-offs and time travel lets them explore this. Last but not least, BFW discussed feminism and girl power, usually straightforwardly but often in a clever or sideways manner, in many episodes.Best Friends Whenever is Disney Channel's best creation ever.

harrun-48391 i'm really angry Disney these days because they never ending to take live action but enough of that best friends whenever is the new show of Disney channel is about two friends Syd and Shelby who are beamed by a laser by a accident of Barry and then they got the power to time travel by doing hugging or fist pumping each other and inthe future they finds them self in an experiment and then they got back and gonna change the time and stop that to ever happen.sounds familiar to that stupid show dog show that they gonna take this to an secret the other show they must hide the secret that the dog talks and if they fail the dog may be in a experiment but why MST they copy other show like dog with a and it tries to hard to be funny like that joke when Barry got the laptop and he missed it in the pool and he got another one and he missed it and again and again. it's not funny and it's not only them it's three characters who named Waldo and you know it's the cool kid who are stupid and clumsy cliché, and twins that are fighting each other but hey i'm find every character pointless and not likable characters and they tries to hard to pandering to teenager and kids it's like they copying other bad show and i know that this show is unoriginal please don't show this for kids it has the stupidest message known to a person
