elshikh4 I'm not a stupid person. Or maybe I am for watching this show and writing about it ! But let me tell you, the strangest thing happened while watching it. Believe it or not, I was predicting all the lines before saying them, preceding the cast 2 seconds earlier. Maybe I'm a psychic? Or maybe I just watched too many easy shows!! In fact I can predict everything in here. This is completely tacky. The characters are so not new. The houses of the American sitcoms are the same houses in the American sitcoms since the past 50 years. The storytelling is deadly the same, as if we have lame minds, or no minds at all. Now this show got me admiring another 2 sitcoms I do hate. One is (Grounded for Life) simply because it had a flashback technique to narrate. And the other (Everybody Hates Chris) for using a voice-over. I want to ask the laughing audience how do you sleep at night? With shows like this the recurrent, outrageously fake, laughing makes me feel how this is an indirect nasty propaganda for lying ! Yes, it is like so exposed subliminal message to transform you into a perfect idiot who lies on himself, saying all the time as a robot "this is funny, this is good" while it's obviously NOT (and they said that only the communist nations used media to brainwash their people ?!, well, at least communism is gone, but not these systems !). Save the cute (Alexa Vega) the cast is what hell will be in the other life. (David Cassidy) ??? What ever happened to his face? This is freaky. He looks like someone wearing a Halloween mask for all the time. The rest is killing me. The worst thing I can say about them is that they all look like creatures came from usual foolish sitcom (How Horrible !!). I wanted something NOT TRITE, to find a factor, rather an antique shop, for all the sitcoms' triteness. Finally, I'm pretty sure that stupidity will never stop. Soon we'll have a next sitcom by the title of (Dick and the Asses), and maybe it'll be about a guy named (Dick) who suffers from many "dumb" friends who do nothing but watching American sitcoms.P.S : can I wish from god to have a sitcom where the door of the house is on the right side of the screen, not the left. Just to feel a change !
Nima Arghavan It's on of the best American comedies and since I love shows about music bands I really enjoyed it and by the way Ruby and Jordan are the best characters.I love teenage characters in TV shows.the only problem is I can't watch the original series.only on fox series middle east which features censorship.for me it was so interesting that i fell for it within the first two episodes.i recommend it to everybody throughout the world to watch it.having half an hour of fun mixed with music is something that every one is looking for and it is entertaining mostly for teenagers and young adults.thanks to the creator the show is not boring and you laugh along with the whole episode.it's just that I wish there was a second season for it and we could continue watching it.
CKCSWHFFAN Keeping in mind this show is supposed to be for teenagers. Teenagers who can NOT think or see bad acting & ideas.I have watched some of the episodes because I am Partridge Family fan since its debut 39 years ago.So, the Cassidy Brothers are behind this. They did NOT think too much about plot or even cast names. David & Patrick characters are David & Patrick. Shaun produced & Ryan works on the set. I think ABC Family got a cheap deal using David as they name in it.You get tired in about 2 seconds of the oldest teenage boy attracted to his cousin. That should have STOPPED after the characters were established as family members.Not much acting required for this show. The characters have no depth. Same facial expressions.We get, David as a former rock star.Even the episode where Shirley guest starred. Worth to see her, David & real life son Patrick on screen together. The young woman who plays Ruby Alexa Vega , cute but not very talented. You forget her in a minute.The other son, slightly over weight with an occasional smart line. Gee, I think they need to work a lot harder if they were trying to get a clone of Danny. He had timing. Unless you are a fan of David or Shaun's & want to see their work do NOT bother with this light weight fluff.
Kyle Mallory This is a good little sitcom that can be entertaining and good for your whole family. It's got plenty of little jokes thrown throughout and is setup like your standard half hour comedy.It does lack some development and in some ways may be better off as an hour long show, but the half hour does get the job done fairly well.It's not very original, other than mixing up a few different plots such as cousin having a crush on a cousin, long lost daughter finds washed up rockstar dad, and has been brother fighting with rockstar. As I said above though, it is quite entertaining.Sadly, if your looking for original, you'll be looking for a while.
