USA High

It was a cute show. Predictable, yes, but cute none the less.

It isn't supposed to be the creme de la creme of cinema. It was a show for kids to watch, and that was the target audience.

It is similar in style to Saved by the Bell, however without as much sparkle. SbtB was the hit, and this show was simply an attempt to recreate the magic in a different setting.

I was among the many who loved shows like this, at one point I wanted a channel of nothing, but shows of this order. It reminds of a time when life was simpler and the hijinks only caused problems for a few days or a few hours.

So although it isn't terribly original, it was fun to watch and those among the intended audiences understood that.

This show is raw, funny and oh so original. The plot was superb and the acting was some of the best I have seen in a long time. I must say the high light of the show was William James Jones who played Dwane "excess" Wilson he was the real reason I began watching the show (great actor) but I was pulled in by the talents of Josh Holland, Elena Lyons and Marquita Terry. Now if they would bring this show to DVD I could feel complete. This show definitely gets an A+ from this satisfied fan.

I see then IMDB did not print my first review of this show.Why not?It is only USA High,as bad enough as it is.

In short this is a recycled Peter Engle teen show,with the Saved By The Bell mode used for the show,which is bad enough as it is.

You have Thomas Magiar and Josh Holland playing the two studs.You have Elisa Lyons and Kristen Miller playing the two hotties.You have Marquita Terry playing the token black girl,who has too much of Stuart Scott disease in her.Plus you have James Madio playing the Screech role only that he is short,not dumb or ugly but he is the odd man out here anyway.

There you have it.Pure Saved By The Bell redux.Same old plots,same old bad writing,same old format,same old bad acting,same old Peter Engle making money again.

Considering it is the same as SBTB,Califoria Dreams,Running The Halls,Hang Time,One World,and City Guys.USA High is something one can say safely,"I have passes this way before".

Right.A dull sitcom without cute actors to make you forget the lack of entertainment you see on the show.A Peter Engle show can be anything more can it?

"USA High" is by far the best of the Peter Engel teen comedies. Instead of relying on just tired old one liners, the show emphasizes humor based from good character development. The cast is one of the best on any show currently running. The show borrows from other shows, not just other Peter Engel programs. It is part "Save By the Bell (but much better), part "Friends," and part "Three's Company." One down side is that the show has been thrown off balance with the exit of Lazzarini and the entrance of Excess.

Guilty pleasure, obsessive addiction, refusal of maturity..........?

Whatever you want to call it, I like this show. See, like any dedicated adolescent, I'm a big advocate for Peter's productions. And although I'll always favor the earlier escapades of Zach, Kelly, Slater, Jessie, Lisa, and Screech (though I'll forever dislike Screech), this one has affectionately annoyed and endeared me enough to increase its viewing audience.

Hey, I don't mind. I'm apathetically inclined. I'll allow myself to be captivated by the lives of the obviously toooldforboardingschool actors and their heyI'mlivinginParisinthisreallybigroomandIhavealotofmoney. Because I like the European setting. The unrealistic dorm sizes. Lauren Fontaine's wardrobe. Its all innocent and unimaginative fun. Something I've always enjoyed partaking in. Thanks for not letting me mature, Pete.
