I like the idea and the actors are pretty good. But a lot of it is people acting in a very unintelligent way. I mean the main character Frankie, dies and is gone for 2 weeks. She comes back and everyone (including her parents) are just like oh ok cool your back. I really love the storyline but wish is was better scripted and directed. I know it's for Teens but they deserve better. I am still watching it because like I said the story line itself is something I really like. It's an interesting mystery and I'm down for those. I noticed Raven Symon directed one of the episodes. It is a bit like one her old show when she was a kid. Those were not very real life like also.

It's honestly not terrible

I went into this with low expectations, because Disney tends to be lazy and put out just anything. Surprisingly though, it wasn't as bad as I'd thought it'd be. The acting could use some work of course (especially from the adults, which is just disappointing) but regardless of that, It's a pretty interesting show. Not sure how original it is, but It's definitely more original than what I've seen. It's sort of funny and overall is just sort of entertaining to watch. I would recommend you at least try to watch it. I'm not saying it's the best thing out right now, but it's definitely worth a watch.
One of the best new TV shows I've seen in quite some time!

I like the way this show is set up. Many shows of this type would be filmed on location without a laugh track. This show is a combination of a standard sitcom and a spooky-themed series.
Some episodes mainly revolve around normal activities at the middle school, while others have more action. The use of a laugh track does work here, as the writing for the show is top-notch. Episodes are interesting, with a lot of humor and sometimes danger. I like the way the main characters are introduced and how they become fast friends.
This series is something special, with an excellent cast.
Great Characters. Well-acted. Funny. (Scary can be downright hilarious!) What's not to like?
I look forward throughout the week to watching new episodes every Friday night. (I haven't felt this way about a show in a long time.) This is easily the best show I have reviewed to date. I hope it will be on for many seasons.
Easily 10 out of 10 stars!

Pretty freekin scary is way better than I initially thought. While not the best disney channel show points were made in another categories. The show feels very visually creative, the music gives the show an Erie vibe that fits the premise, the characters are pretty well developed in the first season, and the pacing surprisingly tight.
I was not expecting to like this at all so color me suprised. This is the first disney channel original series in a while that's felt creative. The way the session ends REALLY makes me want disney to renew for a 2nd season.
It maybe an 8/10 but it's really an 8.5/10.

is not bad

As many ealmente is not so malogente says, it seems to me that there are things that can be improved, but it is good to see it, besides this series has good actors, that is a great point in favor.
If you look at the series in detail there are important things that make the plot more interesting, people criticize it but don't give it a chance to be seen.
But I'm not saying it's the most amazing series in the world, there's a lot of room for improvement, but it's pretty good, and Jason P. Hauser did a good job along with everyone else.
It's a very interesting series, although I didn't have the best expectations, I saw one episode and I liked it, you just have to give it a chance.
