antenehtseg I wanted to review this show ever since season 1 of Make it pop finished airing. However, in order to provide an in depth analysis I decided to wait until the second confirmed season also concluded. Thus far it's easy to say that Make it Pop definitely improved their show by including what much of the show really lacked (Asian guys, drama, better music, character development etc. Well at first I was a bit disappointed that Nick Canon in particular would create such a "parodist" show of the already exemplary KPop industry. I was astonished of how much shade KPop fans were throwing at the show. Heck! They were even about to start a potentially brutal petition to prevent the show from airing! But I don't blame them. I wasn't really impressed by the trailer...it seemed mediocre at best with "unprofessional" acting, a sterile show title "Make it Pop" (yes I know it was originally supposed to be named "The Drop" but it still was unoriginal just like any other show), the extreme immature feminine vibe, and the racial bias that can already be inferred from the trailer. Season 1, unfortunately wasn't all that wonderful to watch— it was pretty bland, with a huge lack of creativity, and not enough serious drama you would endure at a high school. The only thing that I thought was unique was the diversity between the three girls ethnicities. Sun Hi who was Korean, Jodi who was Indonesian and Corki who was Chinese- Malaysian. Somehow it felt like the girls would be constantly be manipulated by the guys in the show...but that's probably just me. Season 2 was somewhat of a different story with everything elevated from the characters level of maturity, to the relationships, music you name it! I admired how much growth each of the girls gained, Sun Hi learned to listen more and grew significantly more compassionate; Jodi learned to be more confident, and Corki grew more apathetic. You get a daily dose of what hardships each of the characters had to endure and how it made them each a better person. Personally I thought it would be better to get more involvement with Caleb, he's so important in the band and his talents aren't all that much notably. If it weren't for his and Jodi's relationship I would have forgotten that he was a part of the show! I wish he would sing or dance, or bring something fresh to the table. It's quite the shame that Valarie will not likely be on the show, she did have that humor that would always crack me up. We got just the right amount of her through out the series. Lastly, I was upset that John-Alan Slachta got this real humane talents degraded, Jared seemed so one-dimensional and selfish— he would have been such a great addition if he was a heartthrob and could sing while playing a guitar...he's so talented!In conclusion, although I 110% agree with the last comment about Asian men (really Thomas Lynch!), do give this show a chance it has so much potential. Although this show is more of a lateral footstep, it the best Nickelodeon got. I guarantee you Nick will lose a majority of its viewers if the this show is canceled. The channel is already a train wreck right now.

megalink-77731 Absolutely horrendous. The acting was sub-par and even though this is inspired by K-Pop, the bigoted producer said that he absolutely refused to put Asian males in this show. This is sending a message of self-hate and white male supremacy. This modern era of shows on Nickelodeon, they are a far cry from the old days of Nickelodeon embracing diversity, now they are planning on giving messages of preferred treatment and favoritism to the children and pre-teenagers of the United States of America. I shudder to think what would happen if the children absorb the messages and start to apply racist stereotypes based on this bigoted media.

frzsk I'm not sure where all those people got that this was a kpop show, but no this isn't one. This is a show about 4 high school students that want to make it in the pop business.Megan Lee portrays a Korean student that wants to become famous. Sure, she is Korean, but no this is not about Kpop.I'm rating this 10 out of 10 because there's lots of people rating this lower than it should be since they think that it's about Kpop. My true rating would be around 7-8.The show shows a bit of character growth and Sun Hi's quirkiness can makes the show different yet fun.You can even hear from one of the artists that it's only a Kpop inspired show. Not a show about Kpop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK7w88h5BCQ

moritsuna 50% of ALL K-pop artists are MALE. Why is it that there are no Asian males at all on this show? Let us stop the stereotyping of Asian culture right now. This is another typical Hollywood white-washing of Asian culture- Bad music- bad story- and White Males are the only available love interests for the Asian Females. This needs to stop now.Look at this http://www.reddit.com/r/television/comments/2y6qk6/tv_producer_asian _guys_in_my_show_not_gonna_happen/The producer of this show said that there will never be a Korean male in this show about Korean music. Just imagine that for any other type of genre of music. This would be equivalent of making a show celebrating Cinco de mayo without any Hispanic actors, like a bollywood movie with no Indian actors, like a British TV series without any Brits. This is wrong and this type of racism needs to stop NOW.
