nptman I've seen three episodes of "Clubhouse", and I honestly have mixed feelings. I think Jeremy S. has real talent (he's 15 for cryin' out loud!) But, the script has a few loose ends. I'm just not seeing a connection between these two teens. I like the family connection between Pete and his Mom, it's genuine. Pete driving the Ferrari was a bit much, though i bet he enjoyed it. LOL. Who wouldn't? Anyway, I just can't see what age group this show is appealing to. I guess everyone, not sure though. So bottom line: can't see a bright future for this show, but I still have hope. I'll be watching this Saturday to see if my opinion changes. It's got a touch of everything, but it's just not enough. It could still change, though. Good luck to "Clubhouse"!!

Valmont19 I watched the pilot and thought it was an OK show, a little far fetched but this is just the pilot. Now the show has been on for a few weeks and I'm just not that impressed. This show does not belong in prime time. I think it would fit better on TGIF or Saturday morning. Actually the TV Guide Channel even labels the show as a kids show. Sure it's nice to watch a show that isn't about sex, drugs or who can eat the most worms but come on a kids show in prime time? Even Seventh Heaven has better plots that this. I saw the movie "Peter Pan" with Jeremy Sumpter and enjoyed the movie minus his so so acting skills. I'd have figured that since it had been a year since Peter Pan he'd have gotten his acting skills fine tuned, but he didn't. The lisp is OK for some scenes but during real dramatic scenes it's hard to concentrate on the scene with Sumpter talking. When he speaks he just doesn't get the emotion in his voice. When he moves, or stands he looks like a kid that is posing for the camera and looks unnatural. It's like watching a great bunch of actors who are very believable and then Sumpter enters and it's like he's all by himself acting alone. All and All 4/10. I don't think this show is going to make it. Sorry

rlo157 To anyone who might think this show isn't for them, please give it a try. Network television has degenerated into shows that are clones of clones or are reality based shows featuring some often unreal people. This show is a return to family oriented TV where the emphasis is on learning some life lessons, learning what real friends and family are about, and maybe even learning a little bit about our national pastime. Jeremy Sumpter is one of the most appealing young actors in show business today, and he is perfectly cast as the young, slightly naive new batboy for the fictional New York Empires (great name!). Dean Cain, Christopher Lloyd, Mare Winningham, and Kirsten Storms round out the main cast, and they are all exceptional. This show deserves a chance to catch on and be seen. Hopefully it will stick around for a few seasons and we can watch Pete Young (Sumpter's character) learn and grow.

bsl05 This show has a few clichés and a few over the top, Dawson's Creek-like moments (a 16-year-old talking about way back when life made sense?), but overall it seems like a decent show. Most of the characters seem very real, and the story seemed to move along well in the pilot - ending with a good lesson in the end. I just hope every episode doesn't turn out to be life-altering like the first, that would just be too much drama for this vehicle. Jeremy Sumpter does an excellent job as a teenager with a passion for baseball, I believe a lot of us could relate to his awe and sometimes tunnel vision for the team that he always wanted to a part of.
