Una Historia Embrujada

First I want to say that I am a teenage viewer who watches shows directed at various age groups. I've seen shows directed at infants and toddlers and shows directed at middle-aged adults. I've seen a wide variety and these days I'm often disappointed by the selection available on TV. Quite often I find myself wanting something light-hearted with innocent humor since many shows today are heavy on the drama and humor that is not so innocent. That's not bad or anything, it's just not what I want to watch all the time. So when I look for this humor I find myself turning to Nick because I find the shows on Cartoon Network absolutely horrible. As for Nick, things are a little more tolerable but there shows are no longer even directed towards teen. Even the shows focusing on teens boil down to a children's show with bad jokes. That's how I feel about Haunted Hathaways. There's nothing good or amazing about this show. It's not horrible either. It's bland and mediocre. It's the kind of show I would put on just to have noise in the background while I read a book, write, draw, or play a game on a hand-held device. Nick's quality of shows has dropped tremendously over the years. Great shows like Drake and Josh- something that was not only directed at teens but had humor and story lines that appealed to teens and older audiences, sometimes even younger. Mosr important though, it was a show that had content for teens!- are something of the past. Shows like ICarly, Sam & Cat, Victorious, etc are not bad but they are still, somehow, teen shows that are more aimed at children becoming teens. Now that's a lot of Schneider. Truth is though, there are few Nick shows worth mentioning that aren't Schneider. I myself could use and enjoy a show that wasn't his and his brand of humor, but Nick has no other shows that are even half as good. These days, the shows, Schneider or not, aren't funny anymore. These shows have actors who try too hard, horrible jokes, and just plain hard to swallow story lines and characters. It's either the same repeated formula followed by previous shows that came before or it's a half- baked attempt at something new. Haunted Hathaways, like most Nick shows, has fallen on the sword of half-baked attempts at something new and ridiculous, pathetic humor. And it really is sad because I'm getting tired of having to watch the same old Spongebob or Looney Toons every time I want a good humorous show.

The Haunted Hathaways: Spooky Laughs and Heartfelt Warmth

"The Haunted Hathaways" is a standout series that never fails to bring a smile to my face. It's one of the best shows I've ever watched, and when I need a good laugh and some warmth, I find myself revisiting its episodes (wich in numbers is more than 10 times!).

While the show has its quirks, like its old-school Nickelodeon style, dated jokes, and modest production budget, it's a welcome departure from some of the newer Nick/Disney TV shows. The cast takes a few episodes to fully settle into their characters, but the series still manages to captivate with its blend of humor and excitement.

"The Haunted Hathaways" is unique in its ability to combine spooky supernatural elements with genuine warmth and relatability. The Hathaway family, a mix of living and ghostly members, provides a heartwarming twist to the traditional family sitcom. Their interactions, whether funny or touching, make you genuinely care about their journey.

While it may not be a masterpiece like "Victorious," "The Haunted Hathaways" is an endearing show that offers both laughs and heartfelt moments. If you're in the mood for some fun and warmth, give it a watch; you won't be disappointed.

OK so I have watched the first 4 shows and this is exactly what Nick needed !! Its a family friendly show, and I couldn't be happier they mixed the races up.I have a blended family and now my kids can finally feel accepted as people on TV live like they do! Love the jokes, love the sentiment, the writing is exceptional.

Every actor pulls their weight on the show.The Teen girl played by Montana delivers the goods with her very real and natural ability and spot on comedic timing.The mother played by King is obviously a Broadway trained actress, she is fantastic and funny as ever.The two little kids are hysterical and get the jokes, and the dad ( Benymon) is a pro.

Some people just can't accept that were in 2013 and shows from the 90's are outdated.This show brings the funny !! A plus

Seeing as this is a show for Children and the majority of reviews on here are being given by Adults... May I suggest the Adults watch the show for what it is "A CHILDRENS SHOW"..

I used to watch the show with my Nephew when he was younger and he loved it..

I watched both seasons. My guess is the pitch was lets get an interracial Brady Bunch where they aren't really in a relationship. We can do aliens or ghosts? Ok, ghost's it is!

The show is funny, but too dang funny - not enough family moments. The obvious question that you have about the Prestons is never answered. Then, there is the New Orleans/voodoo backdrop. I'm not shocked that it was cancelled because it wasn't as bold as it should be. Still 7 stars for the comedy and Curtis Harris' character.
