zarrnedd249 Reading the description for the show got me excited, but that's where the excitement ended. Dan's writing has become extremely tired: the dated stereotypes, re-packaged characters from his older works, out-of-touch attempts at relating to the internet generation....A WHOLE MESS. I don't know what's up with all these children's tv writers not knowing how to grasp the fast-changing trends in tech & internet culture? Even Disney's 'Bizaardvark' - despite also doing a terrible job at incorporating tech into TV, got the self-deprecating humor of the internet generation down, along with having storylines that go miles deeper into modern day problems than anything Game Shakers has come up with so far.I'm still within the target audience of Nickelodeon - if that adds any credibility to my review.

cfishtrom I am a kid and I kinda liked this show all up tell an Christmas special... I think it was the " Reggie Potato episode " They were making fun of the Jewish Religion. Hey had A small little menorah decorated with Christmas Candles and were mispronouncing all the words that are used during Chanukkah. This really upset me because this is not fair. You don't go around making fun of religions when you don't even know what it is about... It is supper unfair and the People who made it should have thought about it. little kids who watch might get an idea that it is okay to do this when it is not... for this, I now hate this show and think it is annoying. Also the kids in the show act so weird... they beat one another up, yell at each other for NO reason! this show is rude and little kids might learn bad things from it in my opinion.

rowwdy I have read some of the HARSH reviews on this show... they actually made me sign up to leave a review of my own... firstly... if you are over 15, this show wasn't made for you! I have 4 kids ranging from 4-13 and all of them love it! I have watched a few episodes and sure... It lacks originality (ie ICarly), but it is entertaining for kids, and I even found myself laughing at parts! The characters play their parts well and are likable! Try not to take yourself so seriously and remember what you are watching.If you are looking for intellectual shows, maybe stay off of nickelodeon! Glad it was renewed for a 3rd season! I know My kids will be watching!

skliaj I was curious to check out this show, having grown up with Dan Schneider and marveled at his weird staying power among 12-year-old girls. The idea seemed solid on paper: buddy comedy star Kel Mitchell of yesteryear teams up with fresh faces, then the games they make are released in app form so kids can bleed Nickelodeon 24/7. What could go wrong? Well, pretty much everything. This show is a frantic mess that can't go five minutes without somebody exploding, falling down, screaming at another character, or having an absurdly cartoonish overreaction lest any viewers accidentally get bored. The whole thing is terribly cobbled together, like the producer told the writers, "I want flashy gadgets, white people rapping, cute animals, and sentimentalism with the depth of a kiddie pool. GO!" The characters don't mesh at all, with each one spouting a few lines and then preening awkwardly for the camera. Cue explosion, laugh track, or anything else that covers up the fact that this show can't segue to save its life. Frankly that seems to be the biggest issue, is just a lack of any likable roles. What happened, Dan? iCarly, Kenan & Kel, Drake & Josh...sure, they weren't Masterpiece Theater, but their stars were enjoyable enough that fans wanted to keep up with them. Game Shakers is polluted with one flat, dull, irksome stereotype after another--where's the fun, or the surprise in that, or the desire to not throw the remote at the TV? This was the chance for a fresh start. The iCarly/Victorious/spin-off era is gone, new actors were hired, and this idea just sounded great. Instead it's the same old schtick, yet worse somehow, with another generation of tired gags for kid actors who don't even have the appeal or the comic timing of their predecessors. Granted the tween crowd has more forgiveness for dopey humor than I do, but a character can only fall down so many times before it stops being funny. Incredibly, this show has already reached that limit.
