Braceface - Alles klar, Sharon Spitz?

'Braceface' is an enjoyable half hour episode, animated series. The characters are built well and show some depiction of ordinary, real life teens. Although not sticking completly to the series title it does not matter too much, at least it's an original title! The introductory song is catchy and happy, sliding nicely into the episode's story without losing a viewer's attention. 'Braceface' covers a new medium of animated series for teens, the drawings are funky and the stories are orginal yet relatable; good fun.

Come on, settle down...what's the problem? I haven't seen this allergic a reaction to a kids' series since "Scrappy Doo" debuted! So, Sharon Spitz is a tad self-absorbed in her own problems; so? What adolescent ISN'T self-absorbed to some degree? I think what Flaming Pig and co. forget is that just about all fictional young teens, from Holden Caulfield to our hero in "A Christmas Story"; from Luann DeGroot to Veronica Ganz ( a six-foot tall thirteen-year-old: try THAT on for size), from the young narrator in "April Morning" to the ever-so-sensitive Daria Morgendorffer, young teens are always going to impress their worldview with their own not-so original growing pains. The only time that youth grows up quickly is through forced change, such as "April Morning", or Barbara Tuchman's "A Distant Mirror". Should Sharon Spitz emulate Claire Danes' character in the darkly comic, all-too-brief show "My So-Called Life"? Hey, how about letting Sharon and her pals emulate the sociopathic little no-neck amateur vivisectionists of Yukio Mishima's "The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With The Sea"? Or even better: let's dispense with the intellectual approach and let Sharon and Maria shoot up the school a la Columbine? Okay, okay, maybe I'm reading too much into this. It couldn't be that it's too...Canadian? Naah, Flaming P. is a Canuck, so that can't be it. Because it's from Nelvana? I HAVE observed, many times, a negative reaction to any thing "Nelvana" among certain people. Or maybe it's the not-so-subtle "Afterschool Special" feel of many episodes. But, is this realy a bad thing? It's a show about teens, so why not teen problems?Besides, the title is, after all, "Braceface"! What happens once the braces come off for good? Think about it...

iam 13 and i love braceface, Dont take off braceface its the best show!. its good it got everything it has teenagers talking about problems and some tough times real people have everyday.and if your 15 to 19 why watch it if you dont like it?? other people who are 10 to 14 might still like it so dont take it off, it is just a waste of time listening to older people who complain about a show whats meant to be for younger kids like me

Braceface is just a cartoon, but it´s a great show. Actually the first time I saw it, I totally adored it! And I used to dislike cartoons. When they show it I'm actually singing along with the opening song.

It´s about a 13 years old girl named Sharon: the braceface. She and her two best friends Conner and Maria try to survive high school. Sharon falls in love with a boy named Alden. He has his own band. But just like always there's a girl who thinks she's the whole world. I'm talking about the enemy of Sharon. That girl has a crush on Alden too. Things work out just fine and Alden and Sharon even got together.

Somehow this cartoon reminds me of Lizzie McGuire. But after all it's a great cartoon and kids will love it!

I think this is a good show!It's funny and well done so you can actually tell when the neighbourhood was built. This isn't like some of the shows where they have little detail, this has lots of detail.It's a very good show!
