Drama Club

I watched two episodes of this show with my younger brother today and it was hard to sit through. It's an obvious rip-off of disney's HSMTMTS, it didn't even try to be unique. Same premise and camera style as the aforementioned show. Every character is based off of one stereotype. It seems like the director informed each actor of one personality trait of their character and told them to exaggerate that trait as much as possible. Every character is insufferable except for Mack, who is the only normal one. There is no reason or logic in this show. No chemistry between characters at all. I'm probably 10 years above the target audience so maybe I'm being too hard on it, but even at my age I still enjoy watching reruns of old Nickelodeon shows like Victorious and iCarly. However, my 10 year old brother thinks this show is hilarious.

This is just a study in extreme stereotypes. All the characters have one trait and push that to its limit. The jock is dumb and says bro. The gay kid is dramatic in an insufferable way. The Asian girl is an overachiever.

I believe that for it being a kids show, it's funny. We have to cut it some slack in the sense that it is on a kid's channel. It will not relate to many adults, since it is made for little kids entertainment. Although, it does make jokes that even catch parents off guard to laugh.

Drama Club is Nickelodeon's version of The Office. It's filmed like a documentary, with interviews and everything. That's all it is really. It's annoying, every character is unlikable, And normally I would watch a full episode before making a review, but this time I couldn't even bear half the episode I watched. Which was the Pilot episode. If you don't like Tyler Perry's Young Dylan, or Side Hustle, or Cousins for Life, this show falls under the category. In other words I don't recommend it to anyone.

It show is so funny at first I didn't want to see it or have nothing to do with it. But I caved in, I watched the first and second episodes and I was like wow it is so funny they might be childish but it is a great show to watch to. I recommend it you watching it.
