Bella and the Bulldogs

I absolutely love the message the show puts out. It shows that girls can and will do anything that boys can do, and it also shows that a girl can be "girly" in a sense, but can also love football and more masculine things. I also like how it shows that not all boys are tough and manly, like Newt.

One thing that I hugely hate is how many stereotypes are portrayed. It makes me mad how almost everyone is somehow against a girl being on a football team. ITS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. Why are people mad at the coach that a girl is on the team? Its a middle school football team, not the NFL.

I feel like the show is trying to send out a good message, but fails in some ways. The way absolutely all of the female characters are all very girlish is just boring to me. Maybe Bella could not be the tomboyish one, but maybe one of her friends in the least? It sends out the message that all girls must love skirts and high heels, but in reality lots don't.

I also largely dislike the toxic masculinity portrayed. I get that while some boys can like more masculine things, not all do. I hate how the coach once said something like "Men hide their feelings deep down inside, and burn the map." Really? Then Bella replies back with something like "Well boys can do that, but not girls" Huh???? How come males have to hide their feelings, but girls just wear their hearts on their sleeve? It makes me pressed in a way that in the 3rd or 4th episode the whole school shames them for liking a "GiRlY" song. MEN CAN LIKE GIRLY SONGS??? UGHH.

I personally don't like the acting in general. Maybe im looking into it too deep for a childrens TV show, but all of the acting just seems so fake. It surprises me that the actor of Bella is the worst one of all, but everyone else is on about the same level of bad acting.

Overall, I expected more from a show with this storyline, so it leaves me dissapointed. I wanted more from a show like this, but it got cancelled after season 2 anyways.

This is a fine teenage series for viewers to watch. It is fun to watch. The storyline could have been a bit better but it was still strong and it carried itself throughout the whole series. The cast selection was great. They committed and connected smoothly to the storyline. These kind of teenage series reveal and help in multiple ways. They are heaps of fun to watch and enjoy. I live a real difficult life. These kind of teenage series help me escape from all of that and teach me some things that can help anyone in life. This is a good and fine teenage series for all viewers to watch, enjoy, and experience fun.

These reviews are ridiculous. This show is supposed to be for kids, they don't care about all that. Bella is a great role model for young girls. I watch with my little brothers and actually enjoy this. It's much better than the shows on Disney channel such as "Austin and Ally" and "K C undercover" which make me cringe. This show has heart and I recommend for families. I even watch it alone sometimes! I think that the characters Troy and Pepper are a bit bland and in need of development but other than that, great! I also think that it would be cool if we got to see more of the other characters families and lives away from their school. The jokes aren't as corny as most of the shows. I give it an 8 out of 10!

"Bella and the Bulldogs" sets an unrealistic expectation for women to be as good as men.

This show does a wonderful job of bringing women up, making them feel good, adequate, skilled, and broke gender stereotypes...while tearing down the another gender. This show seems obsessed with contrasting boys with girls, girls are strong, can do anything they set their minds to, and are sweet and thoughtful. The boys are dirty, savage, they bring down girls and treat them like garbage, they attack others psychologically, and NEED TO SMELL DIRTY SOCKS TO SURVIVE DEODORANT, yeah, great job, you broke stereotypes for one gender, while simultaneously bringing down another and frankly alienating me, a male, by perpetuating stereotypes and making males seem like barbarians in comparison to the noble, well groomed females.
