The Suite Life of Zack & Cody (2005)
a real nogger, that one!
I think that this show is very good. I think that Dylan and Cole Spouse have the potential to become great actors, although they are pretty much there. I think that it is pretty unrealistic, though, because even though London is rich, doesn't mean that she is stupid, all though i can see how they would try to depict Paris Hilton. I like how this show has some humor for kids, as well as adults. I like to watch it with my younger brothers. Sometimes i think that i like this show more than they do, however! :) this show has always been one of my favorites, particularly because it is funny, and as funny and weird as this sounds, i also like the coloring on it. It makes me feel warmer, like all the golds and stuff...? OOkaaaay....lol anyways...compared to some of the other Disney channel shows such as the horrible Lizzie mcguire, naturally sadie and kim possible this show is emmy worthy. i think that Disney channel put a lot of effort into this show, and i think that it really shows. I like a lot of the humor, the plots are good, the scripts are good...all of the acting is good. I really like Estabon(sp?) and i like his chicken...!!! i think that is really funny.
Aquamarine (2006)
great movie
Aquamarine is a great movie all around. While some of the acting DOES need some practice, it was pretty good and I think that Sarah Paxton portrayed her role as a clueless mermaid pretty well, despite all her weird noises(!) Aquamarine is great because it teaches a good lesson, and shows that there can be love in anything, like friendship, boyfriend-girlfriend relationships, and, of course, with our underwater friends. Though the plot is really predictable and kind of cheesy, what can you expect from a movie geared toward ten year old's? If you see it expecting an Oscar worthy film, you may be disappointed, but if you go in expecting it to be what it is, a light carefree movie, you will be satisfied. I give it a nine out of ten.
Lizzie McGuire (2001)
a view at Disney's worst
This show is possibly the WORST show on Disney channel. The fact that Hillary Duff's character, Lizzie, is shallow and obnoxious proves this show to be intolerable. But, factor in her annoying best 'friend', Miranda (played by Lalaine) and her other somewhat normal friend Gordo (Adam Lamberg) and you're talking horrific. It's obvious that this show is trying to depict the normal everyday life of junior high while trying to be the next Ally McBeal, but it misses by a long-shot.
To start with, the plots are hilariously unrealistic (like how Lizzie trys to be 'bad' and she ends up in detention. Oooh, we have a real rebel on our hands!) or when Miranda is accused of stealing, and Lizzie doesn't know what side to take. Stealing is wrong, but who really cares if your friend so-called stole a lipstick!!! I mean, I know it's Disney and all, but do they really have to make the characters a goodie two shoes all the time? Or the time when Lizzie and Miranda go see the kiddy show, and Kate is there and they are made fun of? The short of it is is that Lizzie stands up on a table and sings a song, and everyone sings along with it.
Then there's the fact that Lizzie's hair always looks like she stepped out of a salon is COMPLETELY unrealistic. Who really has time in the morning to pick out a designer outfit, and put hair extensions in, with red streaks, or have a hair style that looks like it would take hours. What's wrong with a ponytail? Then we go to the clothing. Remember that episode where Lizzie was DYING to have that midriff bearing outfit? How unrealistic? First of all, no junior high school would let their students where that. It was trashy, and was possibly the stupidest plot out of all of the episodes. Who cares that much about some trashy outfit that will only allow you to look like a slut? What else...what else...how 'bout her stupid parents? Yes, yes. Lizzie's Mom is overprotective, clueless and just plain DUMB. All of her advice is the same, as well. Be yourself, and everything else will fall into place. Be kind to everyone. Give people a chance. Usually followed by some cheesy story. And her dad is probably the worst aspect of the show. How realistic is it that when he trips on a roller skate and smashes his head or spills feathers on him or WHATEVER he never yells, or says anything mean? I mean come on, who calls their son 'son' every time you ask them something. "son, what are you doing?" "son, let me tell you something." *gag* Whats even worse is the sound effects. Why would you feel the need to have camera noises every time you show a flashback? Or the boooinnnng noises when someone falls down? I mean, come on. But the music is what really makes me cringe. The slow, soft music that accompanies a cheesy apology, or the bouncy, happy music that accompanies their trips to a mall or their average everyday life at school is enough to make a person gag.
I understand that this show wasn't made to educate people, but why would have such low moral values and stereotypes? Like the fact that Miranda and Lizzie's main goal in life is to be the most popular girl in school, or that all cheerleaders are snobs.
This show makes me gag, and is the worst show one Disney Channel.
