As the Bell Rings

As the bell rings is your usual cheesy children's show. Many have commented on the 'bad' acting but it's nothing to do with the actors- it's the writers doing. It's a (rather lame) start to Disney productions in the UK and hopefully, if there are any more Disney UK shows, they will have better writers and more time to showcase talent rather than a pitiful (although deserving for this particular show) 5 minutes.

As the Bell Rings (UK) follows the break-times of a group of students from 'Shakespeare High'. There's all the stereotypical high school characters played by a young British cast. You have the Sporty girl, the Sporty boy, the Pretty one, the Love-sick one, the Naughty one, the Popular one, the Gossip Queen and the Goody-two-shoes... everything as you would expect from a Disney show to match the dreadful story lines and a single set (through a window in the hallway).

This show is very cliché and as with all Disney channel productions- predictable. It's not something to sit down and watch religiously, but it's great for amusing small children.

I Feel Like The Disney Channel Owe Me 5 Minutes Of Decent TV As This Show Is The Worst Ever! Don't Bother Wasting Any Time Watching This Stupid Show Because You'll Want To Jump Off A Cliff (Ok A Little Dramatic I Know But you Get The Idea). The Show Is Set In One Stupid Ugly Place And They Just Stand There (Talking To The Window) (Psychos) Saying Things That Aren't Even Funny Yet The Fake Audience Is Laughing Which Is (Somehow Possibly) More Annoying! The Disney Channel Should Be Ashamed Of This Show And The Actors Should To For Being So Rubbish! Well Thats All I Have To Say About It And I Really Do Not Recommend It To Anyone But Thats Just My Opinion so If You Are Willing To Put Yourself Through The Pain Of Watching It Then Good Luck And Stay Away From Dangerous Objects. Thats All.

Hell I love stuff other people can't stand. But even I think this show is AWFUL. It's only funny when your are laughing at how bad it is. The kids really force their acting (I'm holding out hope this the Directors fault and that Daniel Anthony (Danny) is actually good, so that he isn't poor as Clyde in "The Sarah Jane Adventures". I guess I'll find out tonight).

Also, you'd think one of the cast members would give the production team a heads-up on what British schools are actually like! FYI Disney Channel... we wear uniforms, don't generally have locker which look like that, and in every school I went too only the upper years were allowed to hang out in the corridors and classrooms at break-time. All the lower years had to go to the school yard.

This show is just... off. A bit like week old milk.

You'd think any show would be tolerable for 5 minutes, but not this one. I watched the whole first episode to give it a fair try, but still I found myself checking my watch as if I were at a bad 3-hour movie. There's no plot, just a string of loosely related scenes tied together by some completely lame running "jokes," to use the term loosely. This must be written by people who were social outcasts in school, because it reflects zero understanding of teens, or any other human beings for that matter. I'd say the acting is horrible, but no one on the shows acts. They just deliver their lines without any effort at being entertaining, convincing, or even awake.

Whoever thought that in all the years of Television we would ever get a show that appears during the commercial breaks on Disney Channel.

Whoever thought of this idea is a complete fool and should'vie been fired and banned.

This is one of the worse shows I have seen in my life and it is barely worth the time it took.

I know some cartoons could tell a story worth five minutes of your interest but this show clearly doesn't do anything worth the time.

The production setting is poor and badly set up, the story line I have no idea what is going on and it is at the point where I could care less the sooner the commercial break was over the better and don't get me started on the acting.

I had wish I had forgotten about this show forever but no it just pop into my head trust me you're better off never seeing this show.
