So ein Zufall!

Alright, so this show came after Demi Lovato supposedly left the show, Sonny with a Chance. In order to save the show, they bring us a show based off of the show that the Sonny character acted in on Sonny with a Chance. And man, they made a big mistake.

First off, it's Disney Channel! The clean, politically correct kids network. I'm sorry, Disney Channel, but you're just not cut out for shows like this. I can see Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network doing this (in fact, they have, and both of those shows were piles of crap), since they have an "edge" to them, but not Disney Channel. But this was during a time when Disney Channel was pumping out shows like this, like Prank Stars. So, this show seems awful literally right from the start.

First off, the performances. They're annoying as hell. The most annoying of performances comes from that weird guy who looks like he's too old for the show. He kind of creeps me out, too.

Second, the "skits". Sometimes, you'll get an original one, like The I'm Going to Marry Zach Feldman Show, but most of the time, you just get "skits" built around pop-culture. Don't believe me? Well, in every episode, they would always make a Harry Potter joke. Repetitive much, repetitive? Yeah, we get it! You don't like Harry Potter! Please move on! More annoyances include a game show parody with nothing but pop-culture references as the guests (like Willow Smith, Fred, and some other guy); MC Grammar (get it? Ha ha! Wait, nothing was funny) and The Biggest Loser Ruins Your Meal, which reminds me...

Third, the "jokes" are too darn predictable, the most predictable one being from The Biggest Loser Ruins Your Meal, where a cop says to an inmate that this is going to be his "last meal ever" (and he does say it in emphasis). Then, we cut to a 90-degree angle, where it only shows the inmate's back and the side of his face. He's the only one there, and he spends the whole time cheering. When I first saw this, I knew what was coming. Going by the way how he's just standing there, and his meal is just sitting there, where ANYONE can grab it, I knew that something was going to happen to it. And sure enough, something did happen to it! Two joggers who claim to be from The Biggest Loser come and you guessed it, take it away! See what I mean? I could go on for hours about this show, but since it's canceled (thank God!), this is where I end my review.

Overall, it just wasn't the right move for Disney Channel. I know they were trying to be like that, but their channel was already established as a too clean network.

This show, has a lot of potential, that for the moment they are not living up to. The writers are trying too hard, the actors are trying to hard, and the audience is trying to hard to laugh at forced jokes.

You can tell that the actors don't find the sketches as funny as the writers think that they are. Hopefully they will take a page out of the SNL and All That book and let the actors contribute far more to the writing than the show is currently doing. After all, THEY ARE THEIR TARGET AUDIENCE, not the writers.

Sonny With A Chance, although started off rough, it started becoming a really decent show. Considering they have generally the same writers and pretty much the same cast, there is a pretty good chance that the show will improve.

I wish them all the best of luck for the potential I see for the show.

Let me start off by saying I hardly ever enjoyed Sonny with a Chance. The characters themselves were underdeveloped and very one-dimensional. This being said, when I found out that Disney was going to begin airing the actual variety show from Sonny with a Chance, I was extremely hesitant to watch. I'm nineteen; I grew up on Nickelodeon's All That, a show that's truly one of the best kid shows ever aired. This coupled with the whole Disney versus Nick fight many people continue to argue over had me underwhelmed and uninterested.

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this show. It's funny, and the new members they've brought to the cast are nothing to scoff at. It definitely has potential to turn Disney's falling ratings around, but there are still several things that I feel prevent the show from really bringing Disney back.

The sketches, while funny, are very similar to All That sketches. Tantrum Girl is equivalent to Ask Ashley. The Spanish sketch is similar to Pierre Escargot. What will be Disney's downfall is trying too hard to create a great show. If Disney's writers can stop trying to imitate a hit 90's series and make So Random their own, this show could really do well. Now that All That is coming back to Nickelodeon though, it's definitely going to be hard for Disney to have a variety show. You can say all you want about So Random being wonderful, but go take a look at Youtube and watch some original All That. So Random has some major growing to do if it's going to keep enough interest, especially with All That airing again. All in all, this show has a great deal of potential.

First, I didn't use to watch the show from which this originated from, Sonny with a chance but I think I may have watched at least one episode, but I can't really remember it. So, back to 'So Random'. So I was flipping through the channels when I came across this so called TV show, So Random. I didn't really have a good laugh on the episode. But since I'm a reasonable person, I decided to give this show another chance, I've watched three more episodes from this show. But sadly, I didn't laugh once. I could say this show will maybe fun for little kids but I don't really like it tbh. I think their sketches are lame and I especially hate the character Rufus. I know it's supposed to annoy people but I really get annoyed. The only thing I like about the show, Is the Unbelievable advertisements, I love crazy advertisements. But after those, I don't pretty much like anything else. It's a fun show(Mostly because of the actors and their guest appearances) but I don't really want to watch it on my spare time even though there's nothing else to watch.

For viewers of Sonny With a Chance, this is the show within the show but is now its own show. After Disney & Demi Levato split ways, the cast of Sonny With a Chance were kept on and Disney decided to just make the cast do a sketch comedy show in the style of All That, MadTV & SNL which is what So Random was supposed to be within the show Sonny With a Chance.

The show is just skits with some musical guest stars mixed in every so often. The musical guest stars are what you'd hear on Radio Disney so if Disney & Radio Disney aren't your cup of tea, you won't like this show. If they are then you'll enjoy this.
