Bunk'd (2015–2024)

Review of this show from a Christian perspective

[1/10 · 16 December 2016]

First, let me start off by saying that I really enjoyed the original Jessie series. Secondly, unlike some Christians, I don't believe that Disney itself is an evil company, just that there's a difference between good Disney and bad Disney, and this show doesn't err on the side of the occult or anything, but it's so edgy with stuff like a spirit stick, and a whole bunch of horror-like story lines, etc. that I can't tell where to put it. Besides that, I'm still not a fan, and why would I be when this show has annoying characters (except for Lou and Griff), cheap acting, and story lines that aren't much fun. But I guess someone likes this show otherwise it wouldn't have made it this far.

Bella and the Bulldogs (2015–2016)

My thoughts

[1/10 · 16 December 2016]

No offense but I don't understand why this show actually has fans. The plot and acting are terrible, the characters are forgettable, it's overly girly, the theme song sounds like one of those kiddie songs that's a hit with first grade girls, and it crams morals and such down our throats. So yeah, I never liked this show, but admittedly, I didn't hate it at first. The reason I went from just not liking it to hating it is because most of this show's fans treat me like I'm some kind of crazy for not liking it. Meanwhile, I like Nicky Ricky Dicky & Dawn because it's the exact opposite. It teaches you that you can always work together with family, but in a way that's fun and entertaining. And I've never heard of any of its fans mistreating haters for their opinion. Anyway, I recommend this show to 7 year olds, but if you're looking for a show for families, I recommend Nicky Ricky Dicky & Dawn instead. :)

Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn (2014–2018)

One of the best shows on Nickelodeon

[10/10 · 16 December 2016]

I've seen a lot of Nickelodeon's live action shows and I can safely tell you that of the ones since iCarly and Victorious were cancelled I like this one the best by far, and much better than Bella and the Bulldogs, Game Shakers, and Henry Danger all of which I personally find myself groaning sitting through. It's hard for kids' shows these days to teach lessons and such without the expense of any actual entertainment, but that's not Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn. This show manages this conflict with two secret weapons: 1) Characters that make great foils for one another, and 2) Fun and engaging story lines. And there is actually some pretty funny dialogue, and as for the kids not looking anything alike, that may be true but remember that this is a kids' show so you can't judge the show from an adult perspective.

Kukaracha 3D (2011)

Okay...

[4/10 · 16 March 2016]

When I saw the trailer for this and the photo on here, and the title "Little Bite In The Big City," I was expecting it to be a journey of sort of thing especially since as its title says it takes place in the city. But after watching it, I realized that nothing's ever what it seems.

I don't care that the vermin form is cockroaches. What I do care about the characters. Kids who are on their first crush will relate to Bite, who has developed a crush on Licka, and the fact that he cares about the ones around him makes him a good role model. But his friends are sexist and as a result, give him a lot of terrible advice about wooing women, in fact, in one part, Tail the mouse tells him he should trade an earring for food and even claimed that "All girls love earrings, even the smart ones." And while Licka isn't unlikable as a character, her role as the love interest is very one-dimensional. What's more is that despite some of funny parts, the pace for the movie is slow.

Victorious (2010–2013)

Victorious is my favorite show, next to Jessie!!!!!

[10/10 · 13 March 2015]

Good messages about having confidence in yourself and following your dreams. There is also no talking back to adults in this show (although they make the adults such fools). The reason this show is called "Victorious" is because it's "victorious" in quality over all the other Nick shows. It is my #1 favorite show, next to Jessie (on Disney Channel). I wish the two had crossed despite being on separate channels though. I also think it was just plain stupid of Nick to cancel this "victorious" series, and replace it with crap such as Every Witch Way, The Thundermans, Bella and the Bulldogs (which I haven't seen the last one yet, but I have a feeling it will suck eggs).

Liv and Maddie (2013–2017)

What happened?

[6/10 · 13 March 2015]

This is a good show, definitely the most appropriate Disney show yet, and the only one that's completely worry-free. Unfortunately, the new episodes aren't that enjoyable. In Season 1, it was seemingly like the version of Good Luck Charlie I actually enjoy (was never a huge fan of Good Luck Charlie). Now in Season 2, it's starting to fall apart with more unrealisticness, nasty moments, etc. so that cost the show 2 stars for me. The show also loses 2 stars for Benjamin King (the dad)'s inability to effectively act - his expressions may change, but the tone of his voice is always "bored." The expressions just don't meet the tone of his voice. But Dove Cameron's noteworthy charisma never leaves me hanging.

Kirby Buckets (2014–2017)

A disappointment to Disney.

[4/10 · 7 March 2015]

I agree with all the reviewers that say that this show is disgusting, even though like one of them, I like the concept of the story, even though it's basically just a boy version of Lizzie McGuire. But, why Disney decided to include a bunch of nasty moments, I'll never know. But here's another reason why I hate this show: Kirby's older sister, Dawn is a spoiled brat. She's more annoying than Caillou. She's always complaining, self-absorbed, doing mean things to Kirby (I actually feel sorry for him), gets everything, do you want me to go on? I've got a list that goes on and on forever, really it does. This series is why I can't wait until summer when Gamer's Guide to Pretty Much Everything, featuring Cameron Boyce from Jessie (a show I love) comes out. Disney: Either cancel this series or make it less disgusting and make Dawn not such a b*tch.

Teen Titans Go! (2013– )

Teen Titans Go! Needs To Go

[1/10 · 25 February 2015]

First off, the actor playing Robin can't act. The show suffers greatly from his lack of talent. And the Teen Titans were actually epic in the original, but this mind-numbing pain is an equally "epic" fail. The humor is just gross, dried-up, stupid and sarcastic. It's full of insults to intelligence. There is also way too much use of the word "magic." I don't mind Cartoon Network that much but this show makes me want to throw the T.V. out the window because it sucks so bad, but I really like Johnny Test. That show is so much better than this one! This one is the WORST CARTOON NETWORK SHOW EVER! I gave it one star because I had to give it at least one star, I would give it no stars if I could.

Jessie (2011–2015)

Listen up people: Jessie is a great show!!

[10/10 · 31 January 2015]

This show made my teenage years a little less stressful. It was the first show on Disney Channel I enjoyed watching since The Suite Life on Deck, and I stopped enjoying watching that in February or March of 2010. Until about eight months ago, Jessie has never been my #1 show, though I didn't hate it like I did most other Disney shows back in the year it aired (with the only exception being Austin & Ally). Even though I'm a boy, since Emma and I are in the same grade, I can understand the problems she goes through in life. The acting from the kids is really good, and I like that they have Debby Ryan as practically a mentor for this show. I'm 17 now and the show recently started its last season, so thank you Jessie for helping me through my teenage years!
