I thought of "Pepper Ann" as just another typical Saturday morning cartoon about an eccentric unpopular underdog in a generic suburban and school setting with predictable plots and characters we've seen many times before. There was still something I really liked about it as I did other animated toons. I watched it again recently from start to finish (with how many I could find) and.... It was like watching a WHOLE new series!Pepper Ann, not only a nice rhythmic title it has a rockin' theme song to boot, sung by the titular character herself (Kathleen Wilhoite as the voice of Pepper Ann).Pepper Ann is an excitable 12 year old girl in the 7th grade who constantly schemes and plots for her own gain (and the attention of a certain boy ;D) and sometimes for others with the help of her two fascinating best friends Milo Kamalani, a passionate, contemplative artist and Nicky Little, an intelligent, rational overachiever who plays the violin. The scripts are fresh out of the oven, rich in character, GREAT voice over acting (Even characters like Dieter Lederhosen the foreign exchange student from Germany breaks out of conventional stereotype from time to time) and the animation is unique and flows smoothly. There are a lot of witty remarks, political and pop culture satire and well hidden messages that made me think as it did make me laugh! I sometimes needed to good back to what they said so I got it. This is a very good indication that the creator and writers put SO much effort in their writing. While some other shows lake continuity and consistency, characters from Pepper Ann learn and develop.References to past events are addressed and brought up from time. There are a fair amount of feel good moments, subjects on touchy issues as politics, carrier choices, divorce, relationships, self-confidence and love. The atmosphere is warm, energetic and inviting. I felt this was not trying to be your average black and white society shunned character going up against the faultless picture perfect princess. The characters are so fleshed out you actually grow close and get to know them as if they where as real as you and me. Touching moments too? You got it! That's why the very LAST episode "The Finale" ultimately won me over. I will not say anything but please watch it AFTER you tried watching every episode. I recommend this show to everyone. Disney, release Pepper Ann out on DVD NOWWWW!!!!!!!Being 23 years old is a very interesting time in life when you look back to remember things you liked as a child. Things and shows like Pepper Ann only get better with age.11/10 for the coolest red head in 7th grade :D

I was sick recently and I was looking for something decent to watch on TV because the only thing on was Dora the explorer. so I stumbled upon pepper ann on toon Disney's wild card show. I watched about two episodes and I got hooked. I love this show. I am 13 and I really think that it addresses teenage life, but there is one problem let me show you Nicky- anorexic Milo- manorexic pepper ann- pepper an(n)orexic the German kid-obese that is the only thing, the characters are so skinny it looks like they're all anorexic! with the exception of the German guy, and I am 1/4 German, it make me lose faith, but I still give this show a 10 because it really is cute, and the theme song rocks unlike something else of that time period. but the reason I like it most is that it REALLY addresses teenage life. I look for it a lot and I try to see if I could find it on, too bad my family Tivo isn't hooked up to our IO box...

Pepper Ann is a great show. I never get to tired of it. I first started watching it when it premiered on One Saturday Morning, when I was 10. Now I am 17 and I still watch it on Toon Disney. I like the characters, the animation, and especially the theme song. Pepper Ann is an average 12 year old whose family is like an average family. Her parents are divorced and her sister is a tomboy. Pepper Ann just wants be liked by her peers. Her best friends are Milo and Nikki. Milo is an inspiring artist who is always there for Pepper Ann. Nikki is smart and is always helping Pepper Ann in times of need.Overall Pepper Ann is a very good show and I suggest it to people of all ages. I give this show 10/10 stars.

This t.v. series is a funny little show about 3 best friends in 7th grade. The art in the show (since it is a cartoon) is interesting since it was all done in Japan. The voices are interesting and the stories especially. I recommend this to kids 12 and under.
