Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends (2004)
The best cartoon out of Disney and CN combined!
Calling this show great is simply an understatement! FHFIF is funny, entertaining, witty, and magnificent in a nutshell! It focuses on the life of Mac, a boy who's sent his imaginary friend to Fosters Home after his mother says he shouldn't keep him. From then on, the adventures of the imaginary friends are innumerable! Mac and Bloo (Mac's imaginary friend) meet Coco, Eduardo, and Wilt, who are Bloo's roommates, and many other imaginary friends along with them.
This show has the type of wit that anyone would love. Many little kids will be able to explore their imagination with the characters, who are lovable in every way! There's an imaginary friend anyone can relate to, and each one shapes the show to make it a beautifully created, well thought out show. FHFIF has kept me, my cousins, my friends, and everyone else who watches it laughing for almost two years straight, and continues to get great reviews.
If you're looking for a funny, imaginative show, skip junk like 'The Emperor's New School' and 'The Buzz on Maggie'. Watch FHFIF instead... I'll guarantee you'll love it! Rating: 11/10!
The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius (2002)
Finally, a good Movie-Gone-TV program for the entire family!
After many pointless Movie-Gone-TV flops, I'm happy to say that "The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius" is a breath of fresh air. Each episode has a funny, kid-like appeal to it, though the whole family would enjoy it! The characters are great, and the entire series sticks to the main plot of Jimmy Neutron being, as the title states, a boy genius, while still exploring great ways to entertain families and kids everywhere. I can honestly say that when I turn on my TV and find Jimmy Neutron on, I can watch and be entertained, even if I've seen the episode previously. All in all, this program is a nice show to watch.
Rating: 7.5/10
Life with Derek (2005)
A good show for preteens, one of the better Disney programs
Even though I've only seen a few episodes of this show, Life With Derek seems like one of the better Disney Channel programs, and is good for 11-, 12-, and 13-year-olds. It deals with crushes, family, friends, school, and everything else in life all in one. I think Casey represents a good image for teenage girls, and Ashley Leggat portrays her feelings well in a lot of the episodes. The acting is pretty good, and the shows deal with real life issues. Even though I would recommend this show for preteens, everyone in the family can relate to this. There are younger children, middle children, older children, and parents in the show, and all are pretty normal and fit into the storyline. Sometimes Ashley Leggat's acting can be pretty unconvincing, and Casey can be a bit over-dramatic, but she makes up for it in her better episodes. Also, sometimes things in the show may be a bit cheesy.
Overall, Life with Derek is a pretty nice show, despite some of it's flaws. I would give it a 7/10. Above average, but not the best. You could dedicate half an hour to it. :)
Speak (2004)
Great Movie
Kristen Stewart did an excellent job on this movie. I was personally in tears in many parts of the movie, and I was crying at the end of it too. Even though most of the acting wasn't very good (Heather's lines seemed bland and disorganized), Stewart brought it all back together. Though I cannot relate to Melinda's situation, I was moved to tears by her traumatic experience.
All in all, I think this was an amazing film. It doesn't have much relation to the book, and Melinda's character isn't supposed to be dazzling at art, but the entire film was overall great. I would recommend this film to anyone (though they might want to be at least 12 or older).
