High School Musical: Das Musical: Die Serie

I was surprised by how good it was, the plot is wonderful and the actors are perfect. Besides that, it doesn't try to remake the og movies, it's just a really good show that I really recommend

I am part of the generation that obsessed over HSM. Yes, I watched them all as a kid. I liked the music, but never really got extremely into it. This may be an unpopular opinion, but this show is way better. It is like a PG version of GLEE, but I'll confidently say it's better than that show ever was. The actors are good, acutely believable for high schoolers too. A lot of them have great voices and great chemistry together. I started watching this with my friend who's never seen HSM; we thought it would be a joke. Yet, both of us where pleasantly surprised and got sucked into it. I'm not ashamed to say I'm excited for the next season, and I hope these actors get the chance to prove their potential. Once again, a Disney+ original does not fail!

Season One: 7/10

Themes: High School, Drama, Musical, Comedy & Second-Chance Romance.

Top three characters: 1) Ricky Bowen, 2) Ashlyn Caswell and 3) Nini Salazar-Roberts.

Season one was fresh and something new. Season two feels stale.

It's not High School Musical, but it's not meant to be. Honestly, this show is exactly what it's supposed to be: an homage to a classic series that tries to do its their own thing. It's a cute Disney show with teen drama, talented kids and decent humor. With most Disney shows you usually can't expect a lot but this show actually adds in decent LGBT representation, a diverse cast (speaking both of body types and races), and the original music is not bad either.

This is a must watch for teenagers and people who like encouraging young talent!
