California Dreams

Watched it very little as a kid,when it was actually on originally,but now I catch it on repeat syndication weekdays,try never missing it...i'm also starting to tape the episodes for the future if it happens to go off the air.But I hope it sticks around a while longer,its a show every kid and teen should see,even adults as well...i'm older now and realize the generic and cliche issues they cover similiar to all saved by the bell such type shows,but its still just as good as saved by the bell and the rest...love Jay Franke the most,awesome actor for a show like this....he reminds me of the original red ranger in the original 1st season of the power rangers,and I think he should have been casted rather then austin st. john,but i'm glad he did this show...kelly packard and heidi leinhart were beautiful,packard is sometimes too un-believeable....jennie kwan has the sweet innocent look to her,and does a good job,as does everyone else for what its worth...bottom line,one of the best,words can't describe the vibe,memories and feelings i get when watching it...so joyful.

I watched this show for the first time today and it's pretty good although in my opinion, the girls can't act. But the guys are really funny especially Sly Winkle. Jake Sommer's pretty hot and the show is a good TV show for teens.

What can I say, I started watching the show when I was 12 and 10 years later I still love every episode,a great example of teen comedy and entertainment. Real issues with respect for the designated age group, provides honest moments into the teen psyche while providing a light hearted take on high school situations that remain real and believable. What separates this show from other great offerings such as saved by the bell is the music. Although middle of the road pop rock is not to everyones taste the music is fantastically written by Steve Tyrell, and incredibly well produced. The music highlights the shows themes and are as infectiously catchy as they are entertaining. Critiscims such as the perfect America of the 1950s are misplaced as these miss the aim of the show, to represent teen life without degrading it to teenage sex and drug abuse. California dreams is a clean, entertaining family show which never fails to disappoint. Great cast, great songs, great show!

I used to watch this show almost a decade ago. I was pretty young at the time, but I remember watching some re-runs somewhere and then finding out that it was one of the TNBC (Teen NBC) shows on Saturday mornings. After the first couple episodes, I was hooked. I don't know what it is about this show that got me hooked, but I was hooked. :) After watching "Saved By the Bell" for years, I watch it now and I almost cringe, but "California Dreams" was a great show and I loved watching re-runs up until a couple years ago, when they went off the air. Hopefully, I'll get to see some re-runs of it again... I really miss the cast. :)

California Dreams was one of the best shows on Saturday morning television. A terrific cast, great music and a lot of laughs is the way I describe this show. Based on a garage band destined to make it big, the "Dreams" go through life's changes, many scams (thanks to Sly), and learn the true meaning of friendship and love. A must see, if you're lucky to catch it in syndication.
