Ruby & the Rockits

I love this show! It is simple yet entertaining. If you like the Cassidy Family then this show may be interesting to you. The first couple of episodes were a little slow but it has significantly picked up. I enjoyed and it and like most books and shows sometimes you have to watch it to get into it. Give it a chance you might be surprised. It deals with a unique family. A family in which the biological father and the uncle both act as parental figures. Sometimes the hardest and funniest things in life are portrayed in films as stupid or choppy. This show makes it work. As i said earlier give it a shot. Do not give up on it in the first episode

The strangest thing happened while watching this. Believe it or not, I was predicting all the lines before saying them, preceding the cast 2 seconds earlier. In fact, I could predict everything in here. Maybe I'm a psychic? Or maybe I just watched too many easy shows!!

Yes, this is a well meaning show, however completely tacky. The characters are so not new. The storytelling is deadly the same, as if we have dumb minds, or no minds at all. Even the house of the lead character assures that the American houses in the American sitcoms look the same since 50 years!

Now this show got me admiring another 2 sitcoms I do hate. One is (Grounded for Life) simply because it had a flashback technique to narrate. And the other is (Everybody Hates Chris) for using a voice-over. As you see, "different", even slightly, got nothing to do with this show!

I want to ask the laughing audience how do you sleep at night?! With shows like this, the recurrent, outrageously fake, laughing makes me feel how this is an indirect nasty propaganda for lying! Yes, it is like so exposed subliminal message to transform you into a perfect idiot who lies on himself, saying all the time as a robot: "This is funny. This is good" while it's obviously NOT! And they said that only the communist nations used media to brainwash their people?!, well, at least communism is gone, but not these systems!

Save the cute (Alexa Vega), the cast is what hell will be in the other life. (David Cassidy)??? What ever happened to his face?!! This is freaky. He looks like someone wearing a Halloween mask. The rest is killing me. The worst thing I can say about them is that they all look like creatures that came from usual, foolish, sitcom (How Horrible!!).

I wanted something NOT TRITE, to find a factor, rather an antique shop, for all the sitcoms' triteness. It got me imagining a sitcom by the title of (Soul & The Demons), where a kind guy named (Soul) gets to live with an evil family named (The Demons) that forces him to watch American sitcoms!

PS: I wish from God to have a sitcom where the door of the house is on the right side of the screen, not the left. Just to feel a change!

I was excited about watching this show because as a girl I had a crush on David Cassiday as well as his brother Shaun Cassidy. lol I have watched the first three shows and have really enjoyed it so far. The show is well written and funny in the right places. The actors seem to ad lib in at times which makes the show even more enjoyable. I'm an older viewer with two daughters ages 17 and 6 and I believe the show is appropriate for them to watch, in fact the show is appropriate for the whole family. I hope the show is on for many seasons to come and I look forward to watching future episodes. I'm happy to see that ABC Family is true to it's name by broadcasting enjoyable family television.

I just watched the pilot of this so-called show, and that was the worst 23 minutes of this year this far. The terrible, lousy actors are actually better at their jobs than the people adding the fake laughs. Every single line of dialogue is followed by laugh-in-a-box, no matter what is being said.

It has a shallow plot about a teenage girl meeting her father for the first time, and sadly that is the smallest cliché in this show.

I could go on and on rambling about the lousiness of this program, but I'll just leave you with an advice: Do not waste your time.

Seriously.

This is a good little sitcom that can be entertaining and good for your whole family. It's got plenty of little jokes thrown throughout and is setup like your standard half hour comedy.

It does lack some development and in some ways may be better off as an hour long show, but the half hour does get the job done fairly well.

It's not very original, other than mixing up a few different plots such as cousin having a crush on a cousin, long lost daughter finds washed up rockstar dad, and has been brother fighting with rockstar. As I said above though, it is quite entertaining.

Sadly, if your looking for original, you'll be looking for a while.
