Guide de Survie d'un Gamer

Gamer's Guide To Pretty Much Everything is yet another of those Disney teen comedy shows and this one addresses the audience of millions of kids who choose gaming on line as opposed to socialization in the real world. The stars are Cameron Boyce who is late of the Jessie series, Murray Wyatt Rundus, Felix Avitia, and Sophia Reynolds.

Boyce has been home schooled and so he can travel on the professional computer gaming circuit. That's a concept I find hard to wrap my head around. In any event a thumb injury has forced him on the sidelines so now he's in real high school where he meets other gamers not in the pro ranks as he was. Of course they bond together.

Of the young people I know into gaming and their an older group in their 20s not high school kids they are all male. I've not met a female like Reynolds who is into it. She's a character hard to take because she's a beautiful girl and you would think would have a real social life. In the end when Disney pulls the plug on the show she and Boyce should be together. And he'd be lucky to find a girl as good looking as she is who shares his interest.

I'm sure Gamer's Guide will find its audience.

This is by far one of the worst and offensive Disney shows ever made and there are a lot of them,basically everything you see on Disney channel is absolute trash but this,this is the absolute garbage,none of the jokes are funny,its cringy and awkward and I cant believe there are actually people that enjoy this show,its the absolute worst,this show needs to be cancelled for the sake of people who still watch Disney channel garbage because oh my that's everything I see there now,they think teenagers are dumb enough to actually enjoy this?If you are a real game this is more than garbage,the fakeness of the actors even tho they actors is noticeable,this show really hurts my eyes and ears,I wish I could get this show a score lower than 0 but sadly I cant.

For people who believe this is dull remember it's a Disney show meant for children 13-17. In saying that I'm 25 and love it. It keeps me laughing and wanting more. The actors are hilarious and play together very well. Cameron Boyce who I believe went from another show directly into this project and you can tell he works hard to deliver in anything he does. As a die hard gamer this show nails it for me. It reminds me of video game high school, which was my all time favorite YouTube show turned Netflix original wannabe. If your looking for. Family friendly show for your child like I was and want them to get into video games a bit more then watch this.

They try to make is seem all "cool", "swaggy", even "hip", if you will. But the creators honestly seem like a bunch of 60 year old's who have little to no understanding of what video games nowadays really are, and probably think they're still 7 year old's who still play Minecraft and Club Penguin.

They try way too hard to relate to kids by trying to be up to date with modern social media and video games, but the references they make are COMPLETELY out of date and flat out cringy. They literally make a reference to Gangnam Style in one episode. You read that right. GANGNAM STYLE. That would've been acceptable… If it was 2012.

People might say the kids are cute and whatnot, but they all sound like a bunch of little cringy assholes in my opinion. The acting is also quite horrible.

I think what Disney needs to realize is that just because you're relatable, doesn't mean the show will be popular... or good... at all. A fat kid playing video games shouting "GET REKT BRO!!1!" and "GET PWNEDD!11!" just isn't funny. Kids aren't going to buy in on this bullcrap. I simply don't understand how anyone could find any of this funny.

0/10 do NOT recommend.

The actors lack of power, confidence and spontaneity. The script is dull, the jokes are so flat, they look like being ironed. The only reminder that there was a joke is the rather annoying laugh track. Fortunately, it's not that loud.

On the other hand, it's the first show to my knowledge with a (pro) gaming themed setting. A genre, witch is considered not a sport by many because of lack of interest knowledge and being full of stereotypes. By the way: as a typical Disney show, the cast are all stereotypes: the cool gamer nerd the ugly loser nerd the cool-ugly nerd friend and the fat nerd. Also the theater is heavily exaggerated or simply over-acted.

If a show really wants to end stereotypes about gaming, this show is pointless. Needless to say, the all hack at those controller while gaming like speed would mean they play better. Hello, producers: it's not. Also, it's very American and console centered (thus, console being more common in the US and Japan).

If you need nerdy humor, try the British "IT Crows" (just 4 seasons being made) or for heaven's sake even the well-known "Big Bang Theory". First having kick-ass jokes and the latter having the kick-ass cast and chemistry.

Three stars for trying :D
