Lizzie McGuire

I am not saying that this is the best show on Disney, because it isn't. But along with Phineas and Ferb and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody it is one of the better ones, and much better than Hannah Montana and Cory in the House, which are full of the things that the negative commentators criticise this show for(ie. bad acting, bad writing and stereotyping).

Yes some of the characters are clichéd and some of the situations predictable, but we also have some funny writing and some story lines that work really nicely. The show is not that bad to look at, and I like the music, it is pretty funky. And the acting is not that bad, Hilary Duff is not the best actress ever but she is likable, and that is the same with her co-stars. Overall, you mayn't like this show at first, but I honestly don't think it is that bad. I have seen better shows but there are much worse out there as well. 8/10 Bethany Cox

I am the complete opposite with the last commentor on how bad he or she said it was. The show isn't that bad. For one thing I think Hilary Duff and the rest of the cast are fine actors who put alot of hard work into they're roles. La laine (Miranda) is very good. Gordo (can't remember the actor name) has a tough job with trying to pretend to be thirteen (in actuality he is eighteen). The parents are not annoying I think they portray the good mentor's in Lizzie's life. As for matt I think he isn't the best character not by a long shot. It is actually his friend Lanny who is more funny than him. The last commentor is right that they talk to much about Ethan Craft but that is what makes it mildly funny. You have to admit though the animations are very funny. Well thats all I had to say. As for me I give the show an 8/10 it's great for pre-teens and even in the later year of being a teenager.

It's not my VERY favorite show on TV (CSI), but its second, tied with Friends and Boy Meets World. I like it because the characters cover all the different personalities of adolescents. Lizzie is the average girl-next-door sort, who just wants to fit in. Miranda is a cool girl who always has to stand up for her best friend.

Gordo, who is like me, BTW, is the "Please stop trying to be popular" brain/film-maker. Ethan- heartthrob who is smart in certain areas. AKA, he has street cred. Kate- a popular leader. But she CAN be nice. Claire- popular, but not Queen B. Can be jealous at times. Larry- smart, considered geeky, but he's actually a treasure. Matt is somewhat annoying, but funny. He is always coming up with ideas, therefore, its confirmed he's an evil genius sort of guy. Lanny is the kid who never talks, but its obvious he cares for his friends and always knows whats going to happen. Melina- a girl who gets her potential boyfriend in trouble. The perfect partner in crime :) The parents are somewhat unrealistic. But not really. Lizzie's mom acts like my friend's mom. But I have never met a dad that acts like Sam McGuire. Overall rating: 10/10. :) *~Whit AKA Bibs~* P.S. I think the show is somewhat like "As Told By Ginger" If you like this show, you might want to check that out.

This show is not only very funny, but it also is a show that teaches what is the right thing and wrong thing to do. In my opinion, it's meant for families, not only kids. All in all, great show and very well cast. Hallie Todd and Robert Carradine do a great job of portraying Lizzie's parents and Hillary Duff does a great job portraying Lizzie. If you get a chance to, go and watch this show!

I'm 17 and I actually semi-like this show. It isn't going to win any awards and I would never go out of my way to watch it, but it isn't horrible. The characters and plots are realistic for the age group it represents. It's also good how it mixes in comedy with all of the "disasters" that Lizzie has to deal with. This helps make the show easier to watch. All in all, I'd give it a 7/10 rating because it definitely could be a better show.
